This is an amazing research based article on many facts about the swine flu, seasonal flu and the vaccines available to help prevent them, that have not quiet made it into mainstream knowledge. Please take a few minutes to educate yourself.

We are all responsible for our own health. We have the ability now days to do very in depth research and not just have to rely on others to give us their opinions or information filtered through their views. I am in no way saying the medical community is out to get us. On the contrary, I believe them to be in their positions because they care for people and want to look out for us. I appreciate their opinions and use them in my own decision making process. But I am so very thankful that with the internet and the network of people we surround ourselves with, we can find good evidence based information to help us make informed well rounded decision about our health and the health of our families – born or unborn. It takes time to sift through the anecdotal info for hard facts, but worth it. Invest in your self, your health and your future!
