In a study published in Pediatrics, researchers at the University of California's Department of Pediatrics use 113 newborns ranging in age from one hour to three days old in a series of experiments used to study changes in blood pressure and blood flow. In one study, doctors insert a catheter through the newborns' umbilical arteries and into their aortas and then immerse the newborns' feet in ice water while recording aortic pressure. |

A study in
Pittsburgh revealed that 92 percent of African American newborns and 66 percent of European American newborns had vitamin D levels less than 30 nanograms per milliliter (normal > 35). And the infants had lower vitamin D levels than their mothers. This also means that they had vitamin D deficiency during development in the uterus.
You can use the same formulas and tables for children and infants. According to my observations and those of Dr. Armin Zitter-mann, weight-based dosing is the same for children as for adults. |

In the second study, researchers give 12 male and 13 female newborns under 36 hours old and weighing between 5.5 and 8.5 pounds iodine-131 either orally or via intramuscular injection, later measuring the concentration of iodine in the newborns' thyroid glands (Goliszek).
As part of an AEC study, researchers feed 28 healthy infants at the University of Nebraska College of Medicine iodine-131 through a gastric tube and then test concentration of iodine in the infants' thyroid glands 24 hours later (Goliszek). |

Studies from Clapp and others have shown that newborns of active women are leaner, which you might think is cause for concern, except that the physical differences even out within the first year.
Exercise seems to be more than just not harmful, though. In one study, Clapp compared thirty-four newborns of exercisers to thirty-one of sedentary mothers five days after birth. |

Unfortunately, it continues to circulate and newborns infected with rubella remain a problem. Pregnant women who are exposed to measles, particularly in the first trimester, are at risk. In this case, immunoglobulin, an antibody that identifies and neutralizes viruses, can be given, but although this shortens the duration of the disease in the mother, it does not seem to prevent defects in newborns. An infant born with measles is contagious for up to a year. |

Infants are at particular risk of not being able to break down pesticides, since the level of PON1 enzyme in newborns is one-third of what it is in adults, and it takes six months to two years for a baby to develop mature levels of PON1. In looking at infants born to Latinas who were exposed to these pesticides, researchers found that infants who inherited the QQ genotype were 50 times more susceptible to pesticide exposure than newborns with the RR genotype, because babies with the QQ genotype do not possess the ability to break down the toxic metabolites. |

The central nervous systems of newborns are utterly defenseless against these toxic assaults. It doesn't help that the hepatitis B vaccine has nearly zero benefits for the child.
The hepatitis B vaccine is supposed to protect an adult against hepatitis B infection and liver cancer. Many of these affected individuals also have serious social problems like IV drug abuse, alcoholism and poor nutrition, all of which greatly increase the risk for these diseases. newborns certainly don't fall into those risk groups and children almost never suffer from a hepatitis B infection or liver cancer. |

Bifidobacterium infantis is the strain of bacteria that is abundantly found in breast-fed newborns and affords special protection. Bifidobacterium infantis supplements are available and recommended for infants and adults (Natren Lifestart).
This God-given strain of bacteria has now been found to calm the inflammatory storm of bowel disorders in adults, and is highly recommended for use by infants and young children, especially in the first years of life as their immune system matures. |

Breast-fed newborns may be deficient in vitamin K because:
(a) Breast milk is low in vitamin K.
(b) Intestinal bacteria may not be present to make vitamin K.
(c) The vitamin K conservation cycle may not be operational.
(d) All of the above.
51. Water intake must:
(a) Exactly match water output.
(b) Exceed water output.
(c) Be less than water output.
(d) Be one gallon more than water output.
52. The body loses about 33 percent of its water through:
(a) Sweating.
(b) Skin diffusion.
(c) Sweating plus skin diffusion.
(d) The feces.

The psychologists, however, have to admit that a natural preference for sweetness is not acquired but built in: even newborns suck faster on sweetened liquids. The essays usually close with a paragraph bemoaning the paucity of our knowledge of all the compounds in question and the way that they might affect human beings, in other words an escape clause in case something to the contrary turns up.

In most states it is required by law that vitamin K be given to newborns in the hospital by injection in the foot immediately after birth or a shot during labor to prevent hemolytic disease, which is characterized by anemia, jaundice, enlargement of the liver and spleen, and generalized edema. Naturopathic doctors recommend checking the pregnant mother's diet for vitamin K deficiency and adding oral supplementation of vitamin K in the last month of pregnancy, if needed, rather than automatically giving the shots, which have been shown in some studies to link with childhood cancer. |

And for many years, one of the more unsettling questions in the field of viral autoimmune-disease research has been whether individuals exposed to common viruses while in their mothers' wombs, or as newborns, are more likely to develop type 1 juvenile-onset diabetes.
In type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease also known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, or IDDM, the pancreas undergoes an attack by the body's own immune system and becomes incapable of making insulin. Investigations into whether viruses might be implicated in type 1 diabetes go back decades. |
| In looking at infants born to Latinas who were exposed to these pesticides, researchers found that infants who inherited the QQ genotype were 50 times more susceptible to pesticide exposure than newborns with the RR genotype, because babies with the QQ genotype do not possess the ability to break down the toxic metabolites. This is particularly frightening given that animal studies show that exposure to or-ganophosphates tampers heavily with normal neurodevelopment, and studies in infants show that pesticide exposure is related to abnormal reflexes as early as in the first few days of life. |

The researchers concluded that this could save 41 percent of newborns who would otherwise die in their first month of life. Breastfeeding right away not only increases the likelihood that infants will continue to breastfeed, but also gives them colostrum, a mother's first milk. As research has demonstrated, colostrum is rich in antibodies and essential nutrients, important for building a strong immune system right from the start. Early breastfeeding also helps mothers through improved lactation and less loss of blood. |

Careful monitoring of bleeding tendencies in newborns would also be needed by mothers who refuse or who are unable to use either vitamin K injections or oral dosing.
Food Sources of Vitamin K
Green leafy vegetables are the primary source of dietary vitamin K; please refer to Graph 6-1. Certain oils contribute a little vitamin K to the diet, including oils of olive, canola, and soybean. Kale and collards are excellent sources, with just one cup providing about ten times the dietary reference intake (DRI). Spinach and beet greens are also rich sources of vitamin K. |

MSG can easily pass through the blood-brain barrier in newborns and young children. A fetus is almost completely unprotected against toxic compounds. Many diseases, aging, and overuse of medical drugs, regular ingestion of food additives, such as aspartame and MSG, can all damage the blood-brain barrier and the brain itself. Since most of the processed foods contain MSG, as do many personal care items, supplements and pharmaceuticals, it is almost impossible for an expectant mother to protect her baby from being affected. |

In the 1980s other researchers working with infants born with a rare disease known as neonatal lupus had noted a fascinating but unsettling health pattern among these newborns' mothers that had led them to ask a similar question.
Babies born with neonatal lupus, a disease in which the immune system attacks the tissue of one or multiple organs in the baby's own body, have a lupuslike rash and very slow heartbeats— often as low as thirty to forty beats a minute. Sometimes they are born with heart block. |
| Investigators recently looked at 130 Latinas and their newborns living in California's Salinas Valley, an agricultural community where organophosphate pesticides are widely used. Overall, 82 percent of the women had had some exposure to pesticides while they were pregnant—mostly because they were living with agricultural workers.
Researchers looked at blood samples taken from these women and measured them for levels of an enzyme known as paraoxonase 1, or PON1, which is able to break down the toxic metabolites of organophosphate pesticides. |

Many of these affected individuals also have serious social problems like IV drug abuse, alcoholism and poor nutrition, all of which greatly increase the risk for these diseases. newborns certainly don't fall into those risk groups and children almost never suffer from a hepatitis B infection or liver cancer. Since the vaccine protects a child only for a few years, by the time he could possibly develop liver cancer, the vaccine would have already stopped providing any benefits. Obviously this extremely poisonous childhood vaccine is absolutely unnecessary. |

It most commonly causes conjunctivitis in the baby and can also cause blindness in newborns. Other complications can include increased risks of spontaneous abortion, premature labor, early rupture of the fetal membranes, and perinatal infant mortality.
As many as 30 to 60 percent of women with gonorrhea are also infected with chlamydia,10 and therefore gonorrhea and chlamydia should be tested together.
