1) Beer: and yes, except for microbrews and sam adams, US beer is below par.

2) Vacations: I enjoy short vacations, and due to taking care of elderly parents, they have to be relatively short. I am thinking about a possible S America trip in march. I will need vaccines to enter equador or chile: hepatitis, typhoid. Are these considered bad vaccines?

Hepatitis A vaccine is not too bad. I have not heard a lot of bad things about it but there are some bad reports on all vaccines.
Same with Typhoid.

The thing is with vaccines is that it is best to do one at a time so you are not overwhelming your system. If you are really going on this trip get one in early December and the other at the end of February... that gives your body plenty of time to process and eliminate any toxins in them and for your immune system to adjust. I don't think they have mercury in them anymore but there is other nasty stuff.

I think the hep A vaccine may only be effective for a certain length of time so look into that. it may affect which one you do first.

Take Colloidal silver with you or get some when you are down there to have with you. Also grapefruit seed extract and you can get that in pill form here or in a two ounce bottle of liquid that should be permissible on flights. Bring empty O caps to take it in if you get the liquid. Both of these can deal with a wide range of gut disease as well as virals like hep A, at least that is what my readings report. High dosages for longer than you thing are generally required.

We are going to Mexico likely this winter for about 3 months. I will have mms and colloidal silver with me... but we will be traveling with our truck and camper so I don't have to worry about trying to take this stuff on an air flight.

This time we will purify our water tank with sodium chlorite instead of chlorine bleach like we did last time. It will eliminate the need for a carbon filter under the sink to take the chlorine out.

I respect that. It is good to see people traveling outside the US!

They are all bad, just check the ingredients for yourself.

There has never been any "good" studies that show vaccines, any vaccine, is either safe or effective.

Traveling only within the US, although I'd love to see where my family roots began on my paternal side; Scotland/England & maternal side; Germany.
