The first thing I do when I feel a fever coming on is take a blistering hot tub bath. Makes me feel better every time.

It's not just about the Tylenol. There is a terrible misunderstanding about detox reactions and how someone can feel worse, way, way worse, before they finally start to feel better and get rid of the pent-up toxicity.

The obsession with "cures" has led us all to forget about the functionality of "healing"; the human body needs certain biochemicals for it to heal, and we need to expel certain microbial overgrowths while achieving internal ecological balance. People think that a fever is an affliction that needs to be "cured" when in reality it is part and parcel to detoxification, and in some cases, extreme situations. When someone gets vaxxed, their body is rapidly trying to detox and excrete the chemicals in the vaccine, and fever is one of the mechanisms. But the misunderstanding about these detox mechanisms across the board makes it very difficult to convey the proper message to people: a) don't get vaxxed, and b) stop taking acetaminophen regardless if you are vaxxed or not.

Spot on! The negative side effects of acetaminophen with Tylenol being the number one brand are much more significant than what has been recorded since the inception of promoting Tylenol for pain in 1960. If the facts could be known, I suspect the Tylenol and acetaminophen overdosing and chronic consumption created more ill health and deaths that we will ever know. I suspect that at least 60000 liver transplants in the last 30 years can be attributed to acetaminophen poisoning!

My soon to be released book called seven innocents and the Tylenol trail of death will explore the history of Tylenol in more detail as well as the horrendous 1982 cyanide Tylenol deaths in Chicago Illinois.

It's interesting to note that many of our OTC meds are not available OTC in Europe, or only in pharmacies.

Tylenol depletes Glutathione in the liver

Glutathione is used in hospitals to treat people who have problems with large dose of Tylenoil

It appears that taking Liposomal Glutathione somewhat negates the Tylenol harms

Fever is a defense mechanism, which should not be suppressed with toxic substances that may lower the temperature, but will harm the organs, glands and cells in the body. The only thing which belongs in the mouth...foods which have nutrients, which contribute to health. When the swamps around Rome were drained in order to get rid of mosquitos...cancer statistics went up. I had a number of 106 degree temperatures as a child, because of the poor diet I was fed. After, I got into the study of nutrition, I went 20 years without a sniffle, until I ate a 'toxic' food.

Although President Trump mentions the lack of Autism within the Amish, he does so without the emphasis that should be observed.

Our approach to medicine is almost always to explain why we need the pharmaceuticals in order to be healthy, when ample facts disclose the healthiest people are those who take the least amount of those drugs.

Why do we ignore the miracle of our own immune system in favor of man made chemicals. Natural remedies have allowed man to prosper and populate the earth since man first walked upon its surface.

The greatest health is found in communities with the least amount of patented medicine. That revelation is the key to what should be followed.

Seems like every single time the medical establishment tells us that this medical treatment or medicine will help us, it is really just the opposite !!!

Right on. My most recent blog was on "Epidemic Of Fever Phobia: The Facts On Why Fever Is Your Friend"!

https://danaullman.substack.com/p/epidemic-of-fever-phobia-the-facts-662

For those of us who believe in evolution, THIS respect for evolution means that our body does whatever it can to SURVIVE. Therefore, our symptoms are not signs of "breakdown;" they are signs of our body working to DEFEND Itself...and fever is a vital defense.

It is only when we use drugs that suppress our body's wisdom that our body is less able to recognize SELF from NOT-SELF...and therefore, it is conventional medications that create autoimmune disease. FULL STOP. Please re-read this last sentence...it is that important.

Mom is diabetic. All diabtic cough expectorants/ suppressants have acetominephen... Because of meds she was prescribed, she now has stage 3 kidney failure( got her just in time to keep her from going on dialysis, though we have a port now in her arm just in case), a heart murmer,( fixed the afib) so a cough is no bueno) she is eating honey on her toast but is afraid to try any teas because of her allergies... sigh.

Many of the overdoses of acetaminophen are due to the fact that a lot of cough and cold medicines also contain it and people don't read the labels.

How does tylenol correlate with autism over time? is there a graph demonstrating the use of the former and the rise of the latter?

There was a 5-year dip in the use of Tylenol in 1982 during a previous Tylenol scare, but autism rates keep on increasing.

Good to know. Back then the use of Tylenol drops for inflammation after vaccination was not as draconian as it is today when our infants are getting 25 injections in California and New York in the first six months of their lives.

If I’m not mistaken, the maximum dose for infants is 400 mg and for adult. It is 4000 mg. On a bodyweight basis it seems to be too high..

so the five year dip had no effect on the autism rate? There was no corresponding dip?
