I have been in the field of childcare for many years. Having had children myself, I wanted to do my own investigation into the safety and efficacy of vaccine usage in babies and children. After many months of reading medical journals and recommended books on the subject, I decided I was not going to subject either of my children to getting vaccinated. I started networking and speaking to other parents about their concerns. It was during that time, my passion grew for wanting to learn how to heal one's body naturally. I started looking around on the internet for informative sights with up to date articles on alternative health, healthy eating habits, and environmental issues. I discovered Health Sentinel on a google news health topic search. I have been using Health Sentinel ever since for a reliable source of information on just about any health related issue with many articles and raw data, documented and references right out of medical journals.
