So glad you ended up here. Most people wait to deal with the consequences of their inaction. They wait to be sick, to be in pain, to suffer from all kinds of chronic conditions. And thank Godness, your body is smarter than you think- because of course, it can deal...

Let me ask you a question: are we really in a world in which ‘superbugs’ are out to eradicate the human race? Or are we really in a world in which we need to learn how to manage and live alongside stressors, even if we believe them to be bacteria instead of our own...

In my last post I told the terrible story of how I was cut off (from a socialized health care system which I support with my taxes, despite my disapproval of so many of its methods) from the option of monitoring results from of the treatment for my stage 4 cancer that...

I was faced with the conflicting views toward disease and its treatment discussed in the last few posts. After refusing a prescribed hysterectomy at an Ontario Oncology ward, to treat my Stage 4 cancer, I was dismissed from the hospital. Both the nurse and I, were in...

In the last couple posts I’ve been examining the processes of endogenous cell decay as an alternative to the mainstream paradigm of the Germ Theory of Disease. We’ve seen how certain internal processes can generate the cell decay that gives rise to invasion of...

In my last post we examined how yeast, fungus and mold contributed to susceptibility to illness through processes that starved tissue of oxygen. Among the by-products of the process are uric acid and acetaldehyde. The amount of uric acid and acetaldehyde produced by...

We left off in the last post asking the question, if the Germ Theory of Disease was wrong, and germs did not cause disease, but were rather a response to illness, then what exactly were these bacteria doing? To answer that question, we have to set it into the larger...

People have asked me why Trademark a business name. Provided you have the url for the name, there is a degree of security that your name and brand will allow you to stay in business. If you don’t own the .com, it is always possible that traffic intended to go to you...

In the last post I recounted the story of Pasteur and Bechamp’s contributions to our understanding of the relationship between germs and disease. After initially promulgating the Germ Theory of Disease, even Pasteur, in response to Bechamp’s research and his own study...

In my last post I introduced the dispute between Louis Pasteur and Antoine Bechamp over the chronology in the development of illness. Advance research methods and technology allowed Bechamp to challenge Pasteur’s Germ Theory of Disease. Bechamp demonstrated that in...

Let’s explore symptoms as they manifest in bodily processes. Early on, symptoms often appear to be inflammatory or eliminatory in nature. This is the body’s attempt to reach homeostasis, eliminating the problem and the body’s waste products naturally. Often in...
