Are you sure? Because there are always spiritual options, like hydroxychlorine or ivermectin, or just good old fashioned prayer... better than taking these kind of risks, anyway.

Sorry, I put it badly. Of course Parvo exists, but not caused by a virus which has never even been seen, but by something else entirely- there are many possible explanations, but no-one really knows.

The prevailing belief is that people (or animals) get sick because of germs. This is the Germ Theory. It states that we are surrounded by germs at all times and must do our best to protect ourselves from them. We do this by washing our hands every time we cough, refraining from eating a carrot that falls on the floor and stays there for longer than the “5 second rule”, and by keeping an aseptic environment. According to the Germ Theory, and it’s founder Louis Pasteur, if we don’t do these things, we will get sick, “catch a cold”, or “catch the flu”.

Germ Theory is false. This is not my epiphany, it was actually advocated by Louis Pasteur’s contemporary and scientific arch-rival, Antoine Bechamp.

Bechamp championed (pun intended) the Terrain Theory. The Terrain Theory promotes the idea that it is not germs that make us sick, it is a weak and susceptible body ecology (or internal environment) that causes us to “get sick”. In other words, germs don’t cause sickness, poor living does. It is a poor lifestyle in terms of physical activity levels, nutritional choices, emotional states, and nervous system coordination and integration of these things that allow us to “get sick”.

Years ago, Louis Pasteur “discovered” the “germ theory,” and the rest is history! The gist of the theory? That germs cause disease and that exposure to germs makes a person sick. What matters is the presence of germs – they cause disease – it’s just that simple— and it’s just that wrong! Staying healthy naturally doesn’t mean sanitizing your hands constantly!

Even on his deathbed, Pasteur stated that it was not germs that caused diseases, but rather the environment (body) in which the germs were found that contributed to the cause of disease. In other words – there had to be fertile soil for a germ “seed” to grow and manifest into a disease.

Parents today are starting to understand that children need exposure to germs to gain appropriate, natural immunity. In fact, many believe that the increase in childhood allergies and asthma may actually be a by-product of our over-sanitization by “germophobic” parents!

When we give antibiotics that only attack the symptoms of disease, we are actually fighting the body’s natural lines of defense, and making it harder for our children to heal properly. When we allow our children’s bodies to heal themselves, we enable them to become more resilient and far more capable of resisting the onslaught of germs in the future.

So— what we need to focus on is keeping our children’s immune systems functioning properly so germs don’t find a willing host in which to thrive. As parents, we do this by encouraging proper nutrition, sleep, exercise and optimal nerve supply to the immune system with regular chiropractic care. Only then can we truly move forward, past the flawed germ “theory” to a state of true health and wellness.

You see, as the Germ Theory advocates, there are germs around us all the time. But if the Germ Theory were true, we’d be sick all the time, regardless of our attempts to maintain an aseptic environment (see hospitals where superbugs like MRSA run rampant for proof). I don’t know about you, but my family and I are rarely sick. I don’t know anyone who is literally sick all the time. By simple observation, the Germ Theory is false.

Let’s dig deeper though. When is “cold and flu season”? In the winter. When do you typically exercise the least, eat the poorest, and get most sullen? In the winter! Add to that the fact that the winter is the time of year when you get the least Vitamin D from the sun (a KEY immune system booster), and these 4 ingredients add up to a sub-optimally performing nervous system and an internal environment that is in a very weakened state. The perfect situation for an opportunistic germ to invade and seemingly cause you to be sick.

It isn’t the germ that makes you sick, it is the poor lifestyle leading to the poor terrain that makes you sick. I get adjusted regularly, I exercise daily, I eat the Innate Diet, and I have positive, healthy internal dialogue. I haven’t had the flu in over 8 years. Any sniffle or cold I develop is gone in 2-3 days. My terrain is solid. Germs can try all they want, I don’t believe in the Germ Theory.

Do you?
