Doctor: A study linking autism to childhood vaccinations has not only been debunked, but it is an "elaborate fraud." We trust that this ends the matter. Woman: La la la la la!!
Anyone heard about the hygiene hypothesis? Check that on wikipedia. Ver interesting…
My brother’s friend works in a daycare in a poor neighborhood of Montreal (Saint-Henri). Half her group is allergic to something!
According to the hygiene hypothesis, an allergic reaction is what the body’s deences do when they need some target practice; they pick a substance they don’t like and attack the body at the slightest trace of it.
You gotta admit there are less allergies and other autoimmune diseases in poorer nations. Maybe it is because children born with it don’t live long…or maybe, and this goes against everything we ever thought we knew about health, some parasites and bacteria PREVENT autoimmune diseases.
Our bodies were designed, evolved with parasites to fight. What do they do when they don’t have any?
There is already a new treatment against crohn’s disease that involves swallowing worm eggs!
Seems like a catch 22…too much exposure to pathogens and we get sick, not enough exposure and we get sick.
