“Mosquitoes seek stagnant water but do not cause the pool to become stagnant” and polluted (Rudolph Virchow, physician, and proponent of terrain theory of disease). Note: Anopheles mosquitoes breed only in clean, still, sunlit water not polluted with poop, rotting vegetation or garbage.
Both Germ and Terrain Theories falsely assume the cause of disease is externalities rather than internalization of self-portrayed benevolent, but coercive, malevolent institutions.
NOT MEDICAL ADVICE – LIMITED OPINION
Since the declaration of a pandemic disease emergency in 2020 there has been an ongoing dispute between academic virologists and influential naturopathic physicians whether respiratory disease attributed to the bugaboo COVID-19 is a germ or contamination of the human body. Using the analogy of a fishbowl, Germ Theory says sick fish need vaccination against germs while Terrain Theory says the fishbowl needs cleaned from pollution. Both models believe their positions and the issues where they differ are scientific, but both are more ideological as neither accurately comprehend the institutional realities of COVID-19, the toxic nature of all plant foods, and the complexities of the organs of the human body. Moreover, both are falsely based on the supposition that the cause of disease is something external – either a germ or contamination, not the socially contagious internalization of coercive institutions.
Conventional Medicine, and its Germ Theory ideology, considers many bacteria to be pathogens, ignores parasites altogether, asserts that respiratory diseases are caused by bacterial infection, uses fungal based antibiotics to kill the infectious bacteria, and relies on immunizations against invisible viruses. Conversely, Alternative Medicine, and its Terrain Theory ideology, believe that bacteria and fungi are solely cleansers and transporters of toxins, parasites are eaters and compartmentalizers of toxins and metals in our bodies, there is no such thing as viruses, and the timing and intensity of influenza can be avoided by hydrating, detoxing, and avoiding processed foods.
Neither theory is consistent with how organic food is falsely advertised as free of pesticides, how the human body can self-manufacture toxins and disease, and how hospital-caused septic mortalities (nosocomial disease) can occur from blood poisoning or antibiotics. Moreover, often constipated humans co-produce their own respiratory disease when the liver gets overloaded from trying to filter toxins and foods concurrently when the weather turns cold, resulting in fluid buildup and pneumonia. No germ or pollution is needed for any of these internal ways that the body becomes sick.
The Toxic Green Smoothie
If only the realities of human disease were so simple as theories make them and not obscured by human ideologies. For example, toxicologist William Shaw, PhD, calls the green smoothie health food fad a road to hell paved with oxalate crystals and kidney stones. The same could be said of popular coffee, chocolate and milk blended drinks at retail coffee outlets which feed Candida overgrowths initially caused after taking prescribed antibiotics. Plants make a natural pesticide called oxalate to protect from insects and worms that can be found in poisonous amounts in spinach, soy, chocolate, French fries, and nuts. But oxalates are not purely dietary.
Oxalates are mostly manufactured in the liver from beneficial Aspergillus fungus which is also needed to make citric acid, and enzymes amylase, pectinase, and protease. When Aspergillus is combined with essential Vitamin C in the liver it can form calcium oxalate crystals that make kidney stones. Oxalates are implicated in arthritis, breast cancer, arterial plaques, kidney stones and kidney failure. Many hospitalized so-called COVID-19 patients have been found to have ground glass-like chards in their lungs plausibly from oxalate crystals carried into the lungs from the liver by the bloodstream. There is no drug for oxalates and oxalates do not show up in an x-ray. They are mostly “invisible” to the conventional medical profession.
Plant foods also have toxic lectins, solanines, and tannins to protect themselves. Tannins are bitter to make plants unpalatable to predators. Solanines in “night shade” vegetables, like potatoes, tomatoes, and peppers, make human red blood cells clump together. Lectins in beans, peas, nuts, can bore holes in your gut lining unless you boil, bake, pressure-cook or ferment them.
Glyphosate, Ivermectin Both Used to Control the Opposition
Definitive studies conducted by Dr. Bruce Ames, PhD, UC Berkeley, found natural pesticides in plants and rodent droppings from food storage are 10,000 x greater than any industrial pesticide exposure such as Glyphosate. Ames says 99.99% of pesticides we eat are made naturally from plant foods. The food industry has had a deceptive marketing campaign to make us believe that growing vegetables organically without Glyphosate is the solution to the problem (Green-Grocer Markets). To repeat, organic vegetables are chock full of natural pesticide and the human body makes toxic oxalate crystals.
Similarly, Big Pharma wants us to believe that its drugs Ivermectin (a paralyzing agent) and Hydroxychloroquine (a suicide drug) are “natural” alternatives to vaccines.
Both are meant to control or appease those opposing using chemical pesticides in farming or opposing vaccinations. They have been highly successful ways to persuade opponents to buy-in to taking “natural” poisons. And one of the ways they do this is pushing Terrain Theory as the antidote to Germ Theory.
Working Class Nostrums are no Worse than Ivermectin
Moreover, the Working Class has often been stigmatized for using stimulants and suppressants such as Salt, Coffee, Sugar, Alcohol and Cigarettes, as sort of folk medicine solutions to their chronic disease symptoms that are arguably no worse than, say, Ivermectin. To neutralize liver toxicity, for example, sodium salts (from oxalate-laced plants) and nutritional yeast (from sugarcane and molasses) are sort of solutions. Fiber is a sugar that can flush toxins through the bowel as well as coffee enemas. Coffee and alcohol are used by many as sort of folk medicines to stimulate energy to counter fatigue from low-grade liver infections caused by food poisoning. Paradoxically, an Italian study found that Current Smokers had drastically lower COVID-19 infection and hospitalization (4.1%) compared to Never Smokers (71.6%) and Former Smokers (24.3%).
The medical profession has successfully been able to institutionalize bans against smoking for example that are nothing more than a social class bias to drive smokers to use their poisonous drugs, opiates, and killer antibiotics. And the public has overwhelmingly approved and internalized the Terrain Theory basis of overkill health regulation. You no longer can easily pick your least-worse poison – cigarettes have been replaced by killer opiates and fentanyl. And if hospitalized by killer antibiotics that we are told are life-savers.
A Clean Pond Still Needs Flow
Relatively speaking, if we keep our internal ponds of blood, fluids, lymph, wastes, and oxygen/C02 flowing, and liver and kidney filters unclogged and circulating, it matters much less whether some substance is toxic or benign (the solution to pollution is dilution, perfusion, and extrusion). Even a clean pond can breed mosquitoes if the water is still. Of course, excessive excretion such as diarrhea or vomiting can dangerously deplete electrolytes, salts, and hydrogen balance (pH level) necessary to life. It’s not the relative toxicity as much as it is the dosage and flowage that is more crucial than whether there is an infectious germ or a dirty pond. This requires water, salt, fiber and ruffage, enzymes, acids, lubricants, dilators, binders, and vigorous movement (facilitators such as senna or psyllium, magnesium, cayenne, aloe, milk thistle, ginger, garlic, berberine, and b-vitamin energy).
“Every institution depends on coercion, deception and bad faith and their imperceptible ideological coercion becomes internalized” – sociologist Peter Berger
The above realities that organic plant foods can self-produce toxins in the liver, that beneficial bacteria can self-produce plasmids to protect themselves from fungal antibiotics resulting in hospital sepsis deaths, and that socially disapproved substances like cigarettes are sometimes no worse than over-the-counter medicines, is too much cognitive dissonance for either Germ or Terrain Theorists to deal with. We live in an oversimplified social typification of reality manipulated by corporate advertising campaigns and oligarchs who frame the issues in a false dialectic (germ vs. terrain). And the higher the social class and social status, the less connection with reality. Ideologies are sociological covers for economic interests.
Just as plants make natural pesticides to protect from predators, so humans construct institutions as defenses to blame co-produced disease on germs, pollution, or fictional contagion. Epidemics and pandemics are historical ways of obscuring that the workings of institutions no longer work for vested economic interests. Disease theories keep us from seeing how institutions and public health regulations work to invisibly kill us (Jennifer Daniels, The Lethal Dose: Why Your Doctor is Prescribing It, 2016). Disease outbreaks in modern societies are institutional more than microbial.
We are all socialized to wear blinders that keep us from seeing how medical institutions are forms of coercion and subtle population “cleansing”. We internalize the influence of such institutions so that we are the host to our own institutionally produced parasites. We make ourselves sick by internalizing what our parents tell us (“You caught a cold from Sally”) and what advertising plants in us (“It’s flu season, time for flu vaccine” – even though no vaccine has ever even slowed the spread of influenza) or Ivermectin and HCQ are natural preventers and “cures” for COVID even though they are made by big drug companies). The No Smoking crusade won over Big Tobacco, but Big Pharma was its beneficiary.
Thus, the first steps of recovery from disease implies waking up from sociological unconsciousness that neither germs nor pollution make us sick. We make ourselves sick by internalizing what intimate authority figures of parents, physicians and teachers tell us taking their cues and scripts from advertising and propaganda as Jane Roberts discussed in her book The Individual and the Nature of Mass (Disease) Events. We all now believe that smoking causes lung cancer but believe organically grown vegetables are health food and that Ivermectin is a natural alternative to vaccines. We swallow false dialectics (good-bad discussion points) by the media that divert us from the real institutional issues.
Another great piece here Wayne. You continue to push the envelope and test our belief systems regarding the presumed premise of both sides of this discussion. Again, this is exactly what the world needs in order to get to the bottom of all this stuff. Being a member of TLF, I am of course on the side of Terrain Theory (admittedly with a limited understanding of it all) but nonetheless I do believe that the basic fundamentals of this Theory is moving in the right direction. Opposed to the "other side" (Allopathic) which seems to only perpetuate a Sick Population through their "Standard of Medical Sick-Care". I also do NOT believe that the experts from the Terrain camp think that their theory is a zero sum game. I think they/we all realize that our bodies are complex entities that require complex care. If I understand your writings correctly, this is also one of the main components that you're explaining to us, yes? Along with the idea of people needing to Wake the heck up and start learning.. Personally for myself, Being barely a novice in this realm, I am inspired by many to learn as much Truth as humanly possible.
This is a very interesting article. 8 years ago I got deathly ill. It started with a fever of 104 that continued for 3 days before I was taken to the hospital. It took them 24 hours to diagnose HIB. I had a septic/blood infection. The drs were stumped, my case was reported to the CDC because I was an adult, They told me this bacteria infection was rare in adults. Haemophilus influenzae is a Gram-negative, non-motile, coccobacillary, facultatively anaerobic, capnophilic pathogenic bacterium of the family Pasteurellaceae. Wikipedia
I was treated intensely by IV with antibiotics for 1 week in the hospital setting, followed by 2 weeks as an outpatient. I came in every day for an hour to receive IV anti biotics. I was cleared of the infection after the 3rd week. So I am just curious how my treatment anti bioitcs saved me from this sepsis death? It certainly aged me overnight. It took me 5 years to recover and get my strength back, I was in my early 50s. They told me that the bacteria had not left any "vegetation" I had several ultra sounds of my organs and CT scans through out my hospital stay. I developed adenomyosis during that 3rd week of treatment which lasted 5 horrible years, and had severe anemia.
I was at the prime of my life, climbing mountains, doing well in my career, living a happy and content life, I had no illness for years, avid outdoors person, worked out, ate well... Healthy of mind and body.
