Hi all, As I understand, and accept, one of the main tenets of natural health is that the true cause of disease is not the invasion of foreign pathogens, per se, but the creation of an environment that allows those pathogens to flourish. In most cases those microorganisms that are classed as pathogens are present prior to the disease occuring. In other words, the "pathogens" only become so named because their environment changed.
If you were to analyse a representative sample of your lung contents, you would probably be shocked at the diversity and number of microorganisms present (but please don't stop breathing because of it :-). Many of those microorganisms would certainly be classified as "pathogens" in the circumstance of you being ill from an overabundance of them. You might also be surprised to learn that the number of "foreign" microorganisms currently residing in your body surpasses the total number of your body cells, by a big margin. Now if you're going to live comfortably in a country where the "foreigners" outnumber the locals, as you view it, you have to learn the lingo and how best to accomodate all groups. You may decide to rid yourself of one group, bulldoze the slum and its inhabitants so to speak, but if the conditions that caused that slum in the first place remain, then it will re-emerge, possibly in a different place. Far better to expend the energy to create a better environment, ie. build decent housing. Forgive my rant, its just that I feel that a major failing of allopathic medicine, and perhaps other groups in our society, is their inability to view disease, and other "invasions", as a consequence of their own actions.
