Publisher's summary

In The Vaccine-Friendly Plan, Paul Thomas, MD, presents his proven approach to building immunity: a new protocol that limits a child's exposure to aluminum, mercury, and other neurotoxins while building overall good health. Based on the results from his pediatric practice of more than 11,000 children as well as data from other credible and scientifically minded medical doctors, Dr. Paul's vaccine-friendly protocol gives listeners:

  • Recommendations for a healthy pregnancy and childbirth
  • Vital information about what to expect at every well-child visit from birth through adolescence
  • A slower, evidence-based vaccine schedule that calls for only one aluminum-containing shot at a time
  • Important questions to ask about your child's first few weeks, first years, and beyond

The Vaccine-Friendly Plan presents a new standard for pediatric care, giving parents peace of mind in raising happy, healthy children.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Super helpful and great for someone caught in the middle of the argument

I loved that this book wasn’t extremist to the point of ignorance on either end ( no vaccines or all for them). Everything vaccine wise was backed up with science and gave medical backing.
As for what I didn’t like... I think he talks a little outside his scope. Stay in your lane, teach me about vaccines. I don’t need parenting advice or your views on whether my little boy should be able to wear a pink tutu or when/ how I should discuss sex with my teens.

Excellent risks vs benefits analysis

will be discussing with our pediatrician as our family has mthfr and struggles to detox properly, and as a result have autoimmune diseases and food sensitivities.

Non-factual but interesting

Good read and interesting points however there is not a lot of scientifically proven facts stated ; because the author is an MD doesn't mean everything he states in this book is correct. A lot of the data he brings up is good and makes you wonder if he's right however this seems to be a book to help those on the fence of vaccinating or not, with an unproven alternative to vaccinating on a spread out schedule which is not as dangerous as not vaccinating at all, but still dangerous to not vaccinate on schedule. I was suggested this book to help me change my mind, but based on my research on the authors statements I couldn't convince myself to follow his recommendation. I vaccinated my first born son on schedule and he's thriving. No autism or issues, his mental development is amazing.

Great information

I was so overwhelmed by all the information online that was extremely pro or extremely against vaccines, this book helped me understand vaccination better.
I think no matter what you choose- to go with the regular schedule or delay you can benefit from reading this, because the information that your doctor gives you most of the time is not enough.
I really enjoy the audio version of the book because I can listen to it while doing other things and once baby arrives it will be a lot easier to "read" that way. But I might buy the actual book, because having it on paper will make going back and reviewing information a lot easier.

Informative. Important.

Important information for parents who recognize that you cant always go with the flow or take advice without researching for yourself.

a breath of fresh air...

in a world increasingly shaming of parents bold enough to critically contemplate a species-wide manipulation of a natural system science barely yet grasps.

Blown away by the knowledge of this book

I had never realized how sheep like we as a society are.
I’ve never thought that I would consider doing a vaccine alternative plan. But the information in this book has encouraged me to reconsider what I have followed for my whole life.

Helpful as a mom and a healthcare provider

This book goes so far beyond educating about vaccines! I would recommend it for all first time parents. The information is well rounded and relatively unbiased, the stories are interesting, and the authors have done a fantastic job of putting the responsibility of many decisions regarding raising children back on parents where it belongs. I will be following parts of the vaccine friendly plan that make sense for my family, and incorporating other aspects of a well rounded lifestyle thanks to this book.
