Vaccine antigens are injected subcutaneously or intramuscularly into the body. Our Immune system in turn recognizes the agent as foreign and therefore destroys and "remembers" it so that the immune system can more easily recognize and destroy any of these microorganisms that it later encounters.
During the 19th century oil based ingredients where added to vaccines in order to extend there shelf life as well as make them more effective. These oil based adjuvants would prime the body so that it would be more sensitive to the vaccine reducing the amount of the active substance needed. Highly allergenic peanut oil is a very effective adjuvant used to not only prime the immune system but in some cases may also sensitize it as well.
A food allergy is an adverse immune response to a food protein such as those found in peanuts. A reaction occurs when the body's immune system mistakenly identifies one of these food proteins as harmful perhaps from the immune systems sensitivity to a particular protein. Could the use of the food adjuvants in our vaccines be setting our children up to react to these same food proteins?
The incidence of egg allergy from the 1930s onwards within the vaccinated population coincided with use of egg in the manufacture of vaccines, also introduced in the 1930s. Is this just a coincidence? What about the mysterious outbreak of cotton seed allergy in the US which started in the 1930's through the 1950's? Did this have anything to do with the use of cottonseed oil as an "active" substance in the manufacture of vaccines during that same time period?
Rates of peanut allergies have increased dramatically since the introduction of the Hib (Haemophilus influenza type B) vaccine believed to have containing adjuvant 65 (peanut oil) in the early 1990's. Same holds true for the advent of the Hib vaccine in Sweden during 2001. Yet peanut allergies are almost non-existent in countries such as China and Indonesia where the Hib vaccine is rarely given. Another coincidence?
As of now there is no proof that vaccinations are causing food allergies and by no means do I suggest by writing this that anyone should consider ceasing getting their child vaccinated without first speaking to your physician. Vaccines are just one of the many theories behind the cause of food allergies. The more we learn about theses possible causes the closer we may come to a cure and at least have the opportunity to make informed decisions in regards to the health and well being of not only our children but for ourselves as well.
