[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gumdrop Girl: [QB] oi, people who are into raw food and eschewing vaccines make my job so difficult. hearing that stuff makes me wanna bang my head against my desk. 1. Raw food is not a good idea. Cooking makes food digestible AND SAFER. Cooking kills germs. Cooking is good. Will she lose weight on raw food? possibly since it involves a ton of roughage. But if she relies on other raw food staples like nuts, those are calorie-loaded, so she might not lose weight. Of course, getting gastroenteritis from raw food might also take some pounds off, albeit quite unpleasantly. 2. vaccines are good because they have helped us eradicate smallpox, slashed morbidity and mortality of diseases like polio, diphtheria and pertussis. however, thanks to the anti-vaccine NUTJOBS, pertussis is on the rise again in the western world and polio is crippling African villages. a mother's antibodies protect during the first 6 months of your life. after that, your thymus has to work on its own, or with help from vaccines. but what do i know? i only work in public health. i only have a masters degree from a good school. i obviously have no idea what i'm talking about when it comes to improving the health of communities.
