Twas. He also said: “If someone wishes for good health, one must first ask oneself if he is ready to do away with the reasons for his illness. Only then its possible to help him.” Most of the reasons for americans are things that we eat and drink that we are not “ready to do away with.”

I have forgotten. Was it Hippocrates that said, “I am more interested in what kind of person has a disease, then what kind of a disease a person has.”

Hi Steve, the posts that aren’t specifically attributed to someone else, with link, are mine. And yes, I’m saying that we are colonized by all sorts of microbes, many of which can turn bad if our body/mind is less than optimal. The germs don’t cause the sickness; the sickened (less than optimal) condition allows the germs to proliferate.

Michael, I don’t know if you wrote this or not but you have several really good points. I am not saying I have the answers either. But one of the points I read into your writing was that there is a big difference between being infected and being colonized. (colonized is living with a bacterium or virus and not being sick or infected) most of us are comfortably living with things that we are terrified of. If we can practice optimal health as defined by each of us with a generalization towards many practices being consistent then we have a great chance of slowly building immunities to these dreaded bugs. They, the bugs, are largely like fearful thoughts. We live with them everyday and seldom do they really stamp out our life. just my two cents. Well written.
