Any and all advertisements you might see on this website are 100% uncompensated recommendations.
I like Sinupret because it looks clean, is well-tested and I think it works.
I recommend Erbaorganics because they're very clear about the percentage of organic ingredients in each of their products. At one time, I received some free samples from these two companies. I no longer do.
If you buy my DVD, I think I get about fifty cents. Unless you choose to buy thousands and thousands of my books, I'll never see one penny in royalties.

Your article (“Desperate Measures” People,
9/27/04) mentions that the flu shot contains about the same amount
of mercury as 2.5 ounces of albacore tuna. Rarely, if ever do we
intentionally inject tuna into six month old babies. I cannot imagine
that Dr. Cody Meissner, the physician quoted immediately following
that phrase “signed on” to this comparison. No intelligent person
would.
This year’s flu shot contain 25 micrograms of mercury. This is 250
times the Environmental Protection Agency’s recommended daily limit
of 0.1 micrograms/day and violates the spirit if not the letter
of the FDA’s mercury guidelines, too.
There may be many people at risk of influenza complications who
should receive the flu shot but pregnant women should not and neither
should small babies. The risks outweigh the benefits.
Very solid medical studies support the concept that mercury and
other toxins can trigger autism, diabetes and other illnesses in
susceptible children. It is completely incorrect to imply that these
substances have been proven to “cause” autism but equally inaccurate
reasoning to claim that we’ve proven that they do not.
You quote Dr. Gary Freed commenting on his caring for a child who
died of measles complications. We have fewer than 50 cases of measles
each year in the USA and doctors should help parents decide if the
possible risks exceed the possible benefits for each individual
child. We have not had a measles death in America for some years.
He may have seen this happen, but it was a while ago.
Zealots who deny that the tremendous decrease in measles, polio
and other illnesses is not owed to vaccination are as lacking in
intellectual honesty as the experts who try to scare parents into
vaccinating rather than presenting an honest presentation of the
facts.
There are good reasons to vaccinate but there may be other good
reasons for parents to refuse certain vaccines.
