What is in a Vaccine?
ALSO IN THIS ISSUE: SHREVEN AND JOHN PAUL II / HOMEOPATHIC REMEDIES / FACTS ABOUT OLESTRA
It is said that vaccines contain “monkey
pus.” While it is true that some do, vaccines
contain a lot more than just mare’s urine or
W fluid from animal pistules. When you take your
M
small child in for his “shots,” this is a sam-
1 pling of what will be injected into him:

6 mors, and lymphomas of humans.
0 • Formaldehyde — Also known as formalin,
this is a major constituent of embalming fluid. It is
a powerful killer of living cells and is poisonous to
the nervous, reproductive, immune, and respira-
tory systems. It also damages the liver. It is a car-
cinogen and linked to leukemia and cancer of the
brain, colon, and lymph.
• Tri (n) butylphosphate —A suspected nerve
and kidney poison.
• Polysorbate 80 — This absorbent is known
to cause cancer in test animals.
• Ammonium sulfate — This poisonous salt
damages the gastrointesinal tract, the liver, and
nerve and respiratory systems.
• Animal, bacterial, and viral DNA — Taken
into the human body, these substances are ab-
sorbed by the DNA, resulting in genetic mutations.
• Mercury — In the form of Thimerosal, it is
included in vaccines to kill some of the dangerous
bacteria and viruses in vaccine fluid. But thimero-
sal is, itself, one of the most poisonous substances
known to mankind. It especially affects the brain,
intestines, liver, kidneys, and bone marrow. Ex-
tremely small amounts can cause nerve damage,
paralysis, and death. It is a major cause of autism
in children; even in extremely small amounts, it is
one of the most dangerous substances in this list.
• Beta-propiolactone — This preservant is
known to cause cancer; it is poison to the liver, res-
piratory organs, skin, sense organs, and alimen-
tary tract.
• Latex rubber — Minute amounts of this can

cause life-threatening allergic reactions.
• Monosodium glutamate — Also known as
MSG, glutamate, and glutamic acid, this substance
is mutagenic and teratogenic; that is, it is known to
cause developmental malformation and monstrosi-
ties. This is because it is a neurotoxin, producing
allergic reactions ranging from mild to severe.
• Gentamicin sulfate — This antibiotic causes
mild to life threatening allergic reactions.
• Aluminum — A cause of brain damage and a
suspected factor in Alzheimer’s disease, dementia,
seizures, and comas. Allergic reactions can occur
on the skin.
• Microorganisms — These include both live
and dead viruses, bacteria, and toxins emitted by
them. For example, the polio vaccine was contami-
nated with a monkey virus which is now being found
in the bones, lung lining (mesothelioma), brain tu-
• Neomycin sulfate — This antibiotic inter-
feres with vitamin B6 absorption. When B6 is not
properly absorbed, a rare form of epilepsy and
mental retardation can occur. Allergic reactions can
vary from mild to life threatening.
• Polymyxin B — A powerful antibiotic which
can produce dangerous allergic reactions.
• Genetically modified yeast — Absorbed by
the recipient’s DNA, it causes genetic mutations.
• Glutaraldehyde — Poisonous, if ingested. It
causes birth defects in experimental animals.
• Gelatin — This is produced from pig’s feet
and skins, calf and cattle skins, and demineralized
cattle bones. Allergic reactions have been reported.
• Phenol — Also known as phenoxyethanol (2-
PE), this substance is also used as antifreeze. When
animals drink antifreeze, they die a horrible death.
Phenol is toxic to all cells and capable of disabling
the immune system’s primary response mechanism.
• Human cells — These are taken from aborted
fetal (human baby) tissue and human albumin.
• Animal cells — Also included in vaccines will
be found a variety of the following substances: pig
blood, horse blood, and calf serum. Pieces of guinea
pigs, rabbit brain, dog kidney, cow heart, monkey
kidney, chick embryo, and eggs of chickens and
ducks. No check is made to guarantee that these
included animal parts will not be diseased. The vac-
cine manufacturer hopes that all the various poi-
sonous chemicals included in the vaccine will kill
the bacteria and viruses.
“A major cause of the Roman Empire’s decline,
after six centuries of world dominance was its re-
placement of stone aqueducts by lead pipes for the
transport and supply of drinking water. Roman
engineers, the best in the world, turned their fellow
citizens into neurological cripples. Today our own
‘best and brightest,’ with the best of intentions,
achieve the same end through childhood vaccina-
tion programs yielding the modern scourges of
hyperactivity, learning disabilities, autism, ap-
petite disorders, and impulsive violence.”—Har-
ris L. Coulter, Ph.D.

Should You Use Homeopathic Remedies?
6
0 What are “homeopathic medicines”? Samuel
Hahnemann, a German physician, devised the basic for-
mulas about 200 years ago. When we actually investi-
gate the principles underlying them, we find that home-
opathy is something we should leave alone.
Satan knows the power of the true health message,
and he has developed a counterfeit. Just as the true
health message, if correctly taught and practiced, will
lead people to Jesus and obedience to His laws, so the
false one will lead people in the wrong direction.
One of the more widely used and “apparently inno-
cent” forms of alternative medicine is homeopathy, which
is based on the so-called “Law of Similars” that “like
cures like.” Thus, if a snake bites you, the remedy is to
swallow a small amount of snake poison. Now really,
does that sound logical? If you drink a little cyanide,
will a little more cure you? The word, “homeopathy,”
comes from two Greek words (homoiois and pathos)
which mean “like” and “suffering.” Homeopathy says to
give the patient a little of that which is causing his suf-
fering or sickness, and he will get well.
Like a variety of Chinese and Hindu medicines, ho-
meopathy also claims to heal through the principle of
the “universal energy” or “chi.” Not identifiable by scien-
tific methods, the “chi” is power within you, that must
be released. Does homeopathy sound like something you
should be using?
The actual principles upon which homeopathy op-
erates are quite strange. First, they frequently involve
substances which are not healthful, and may even be
dangerous. Second, there is the peculiar concept that
something which is just about nothing has great heal-
ing power; and the closer to nothing it gets, the greater
its curative benefits! Some consider the result to be a
sort of witchcraft. It is highly significant that native witch
doctors use similar substances and methods.
First, there are the poisons which are used: Some
of the substances include Rhus toxicodendron (poison
ivy), Apis mellifica (pieces of a dead honey bee), Sepia
(the inky fluid from a cuttle fish, a type of squid), Silicea
(pieces of flint rock), and Sulfur.
Inorganic sulfur (that is, sulfur not in food itself)
should never be placed in the human body. But then,
the other things listed above should not either.
Second, there is the mysterious way such sub-
stances are prepared: Small amounts of minerals, or
pieces of animals or plants, are diluted. Homeopathic
doctor George Vithoulkas states, “Modern homeopaths
use potencies up to the hundred centesimal and beyond
. . The implications of this discovery are staggering. A
substance shaken and diluted to a dilution of 1 in
100,000 parts, even to a total of 60 zeros and more,
still acts to cure disease, quickly and permanently.” He
goes on to explain, “Clearly those phenomena cannot be
explained by ordinary chemical mechanisms. The dilu-
tions are so astronomically small that not even one
molecule of the original medicine is left.”
Such is not a natural remedy, nor is it any kind of
remedy; it is spiritistic healing.
Are you beginning to agree that this sounds like
witchcraft? Something is reduced to nothing, and then
it produces marvelous healing. Similar to it is hypno-
tism, which seems to be a nothing, merely a wave of the
hand putting a person to sleep for a few minutes; yet it
also seems to produce great healing. But you and I know
that it is extremely unsafe to tamper with.
If there is not even one molecule of the original medi-
cine left, what is in it that cures the patient? The founder,
Hahnemann, said the healing was accomplished by a
“spirit-like essence.” Do you want to be relieved of your
pain by a “spirit-like essence”?
Samuel Hahnemann explained the matter further:
“True disease is not a physical entity. Rather, illness
begins at the spiritual level as an aberration or imbal-
ance of the spirit-like power, or the vital principle that
animates the human body. Only later does this aberra-
tion manifest itself as physical illness or disease . . Be-
cause the true cause of disease is spiritual, it must be
treated with a spiritual medicine or remedy.”
There is also another “spirit” in the remedy: The
original batch of poison was repeatedly diluted with al-
cohol, which was then given to you to drink.
If you want to know the true cause of disease, and
the God-given remedies to both avoid and cure it, read
Ministry of Healing, 126-128.
Here is how Jethro Kloss described homeopathy in
the original edition of his book, Back to Eden. (For some
reason, the following paragraph has been removed from
the current edition.)
“In the early part of the eighteenth century, a Ger-
man physician, by the name of Hahnemann, set forth
the idea that it would be better to give smaller doses of
medicines. He started giving medicines in the powdered
form, and in such small doses that it had little effect as
a drug. He did not discard the old materia medica (drug
medications), but in addition to giving mercury, arsenic,
and all other minerals, he included some of the most
filthy serums, unsanitary preparations from bees, bed-
bugs, snake poisons, etc. Anyone with intelligence, who
would take a few minutes to think about the make-up
of the human body, would realize that minerals and such
unsanitary medicines could not prove a panacea for any
of the ills of man that they seemed to think they would.”
Bible/Spirit of Prophecy remedies lead to obedience
to the laws of God. Those remedies also agree with natu-
ral law. They are never poison! Repeatedly, the Spirit of
Prophecy defines drugs as “poisons ” (see our Medical
Missionary Manual, chapter 16).
 FACTS ABOUT OLESTRA
Olestra is a strange kind of synthetic vegetable
oil which is not derived from plants or animals.
Because it is much cheaper to produce, major food
manufacturers petitioned the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) to approve it for human con-
sumption.
In spite of vigorous protests by physiologists and
nutritionists about this “food” substitute for veg-
etable oil, the FDA approved it as an oil substitute.
Here are several statements by nutritional ex-
perts:
———————————
“Olestra is a type of mineral oil! . . I believe this
is another hoax and deception being foisted on . .
the American people.”—Dr. Sheldon Margen, Pub-
lic Health Nutrition, University of California, Ber-
keley.
“Olestra . . constitutes a public health time
bomb.”—Dr. John S. Bertram, Cancer Research
Center of Hawaii, University of Hawaii.
“This substance has the potential to do signifi-
cant harm.”—Dr. Earnst J. Schaefer, U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture and Human Nutrition Re-
search Center on Aging at Tufts University.
“We are concerned about the high incidences of
gastrointestinal effects, ranging from diarrhea to
fecal urgency, that are caused by the consumption
of modest levels of olestra.”—Dr. Mark Donowitz,
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
“The bowel disturbances and impaired absorp-
tion of fat-soluble vitamins, including carotenoids
. . are sufficient reasons to have serious reserva-
tions about this food additive and to recommend
that it not be introduced as a food additive.”—Dr.
Ian Greaves, University of Minnesota School of
Public Health.
“It is clear folly to introduce this product into
the diet of children.”—Dr. Herbert Needleman,

More WAYMARKS - from —————————P I L G R I M S
University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.
“There are too many unanswered questions re-
maining about the safety and long-term public
health consequences of olestra consumption.
Therefore, the American Public Health Association
does not support approval for olestra at this time.”—
Dr. Fernando Trevino, American Public Health As-
sociation.
“Even low levels of harm should not be toler-
ated when introducing new products into the food
supply . . For olestra, the harm appears substan-
tial. We would argue strongly that the FDA should
not approve olestra for use in foods, nor should it
be allowed into the U.S. food supply.”—Drs. John
D. Potter and Johanna Lampe, Fred Hutchinson
Cancer Research Center, Seattle.
“The adverse effects of olestra outweigh its po-
tential benefits.”—Jerianne Hemimendinger, Can-
cer Research Center, Denver.
“Olestra—even in limited use—can be poten-
tially harmful to the public . . I do not believe that
our society can afford such a risk [of macular de-
generation within the eyes].”—Dr. Norman Krinsky,
Tufts University School of Medicine.
“There is strong reason to suspect that the ef-
fects of olestra will include increases in cancer, heart
disease, stroke, and blindness.”—Drs. Walter Willett
and Meir Stampfer, Harvard School of Public
Health.
“These estimates clearly demonstrate that the
magnitude of carotenoid [pro-vitamin A] reduction
demonstrated in controlled feeding studies of
olestra could potentially produce a large number
of deaths annually and major morbidity in the U.S.
population . . We . . strongly encourage you [Dr.
Kessler, head of the FDA] to avoid submitting the
U.S. population, including children and pregnant
women, to a massive uncontrolled experiment with
potentially disastrous consequences.”—Drs. Walter
Willett and Meir Stampfer, Harvard School of Pub-
lic Health. (Their petition to the Food and Drug
Administration was endorsed by 25 other nutri-
tion experts).
———————————
I recall an incident about 30 years ago, when
(because it was so much cheaper to manufacture)
an Italian olive oil firm sold fine-grade machine oil
to North Africans as “olive oil.” It produced blind-
ness in thousands of people. Very likely, the blind-
ness was caused by the mineral oil absorbing vita-
min A and carotenoids from the body. —vf
