Vaccines - Are they your Animal's Friend, or Foe?

Vaccines were created to prevent disease, yet there is growing evidence that vaccines may be harmful to your animals.

Vaccines were intended to keep animals healthy. Today, more pet parents than ever are questioning the safety, efficacy, and need for repeated vaccinations. In this mini-course, you'll learn how vaccines work, how they affect the immune system, how to recognize a vaccine reaction, and how to customize a vaccination protocol based on your animal's risk for exposure to various diseases.

Most veterinarians will make recommendations for your animal based on what the vaccine manufacturer or sales rep tells them. However, the recommendations are not based in science - but in profit margins - and many animals are affected negatively by repeated vaccines.

Many people do not realize that titer testing can be performed and will tell you if an animal is not adequately immunized. And if an animal is adequately protected, there may be zero need for vaccination, thereby alleviating stress on the entire immune system.
