What I mentioned is that I do not have a problem with some of the tenants of a terrain theory. It has some very valid points. But there are things it still cannot explain of which I have yet to hear a reasonable answer for the questions. It does not explain the fact that there is at times an infectious agent of some type at play that the immune system is reacting to that is neither a bacteria, fungus, or a toxin. We can clearly see this through testing of specific parameters of the immune system and through genetic sequencing. Whether we want to call it a virus or not, really makes no difference. We have some pretty sophisticated testing that eliminates the usual suspects that we deal with. On occasion an infectious disease specialist may have to be called in. But by in large, the pathogens are identified. But at the same time, through lazy scientific method, the viral germ theory does not explain everything either and has been used to promote vaxxines and antiviral drugs. I do not like the fact that everyone does think germ theory explains everything and have basically quit looking for alternative streams of inquiry.

Like you, I just want an honest evaluation of the what is occurring. I have walked a tightrope for decades because I have not bought in completely to the accepted narrative. You are right in that for the most part, people make themselves sick by poor diet and bad behavior. Dis-ease does not easily overtake the healthy. Proper nutrition, which is all but neglected in most allopathic circles, is absolutely key to helping one on the road to better health. Then there is Electrosmog, toxic water, contaminated air, etc.

To be healthy requires work and unfortunately, most people do not want to do the work. That sadly is the honest truth. One of my biggest hurdles in practice was getting my patients to take responsibility for their own health rather than just waiting for a prescription. Many claimed to be interested, but in the end not that many actually took my advice and ran with it. Those that did had amazing outcomes and in many cases not only improved, but cured what was ailing them. More proof that what conditions they were suffering from were of their own making. So in a way, the public is also responsible for the system that we have. It is much easier to blame some no-see-um for what ails a person rather than take some personal responsibility in reducing their toxic burden. They would much rather take prescriptions, drink beer, eat pizza and other fast food, chow down donuts and chips, than eat anything healthy. Some people's idea of a vegetable is the GMO iceberg lettuce and the GMO unripe tomato they had on their ultimate feed-lot raised antibiotic inoculated burger with a couple of slices of adulterated bacon full of sodium nitrites. Yum.

I am not arguing with you. This board is a place for discussion. I will look at the items you sent me. I usually review things at the end of the day when I am not interrupted and can concentrate better on the material. Thank you for the links.
