The Germ Theory of Disease

by Daniel H Duffy Sr DC

The notion that we "catch" colds is based upon the "germ theory of disease." (GTOD)

This is similar to saying that firemen cause fires and flies cause manure piles because they are always found at their respective sites.

My 30 years of clinical practice as a family doctor and over fifty years of observation of what makes us sick leads me to believe that we do NOT "catch" colds. Colds "catch" us. We more often "EAT" our colds.

Experiments were made - "way back when" - by the British and others, putting people into all sorts of conditions thought to cause colds. All unsuccessful.

Colds, flu, fever, - the just plain sick syndrome is the result of a sudden dose of environmental poisons, the most common one being, refined sugar. Of course sitting for fifteen minutes behind a greyhound bus in heavy traffic in an auto filled with positive ions can have a similar effect or add to lesser amounts of the primary evil causing the problem.

Sugar shuts off white cells and bacteria always present multiply and put toxins in our systems.

We live in a sea of virus and bacteria - they are at the end of the causal chain not the beginning. They are the RESULT of disease, not the CAUSE of it. Since they are everywhere and we can't escape them, they are obviously NOT the cause of our illnesses but only multiply in great numbers when illness seizes our bodies.

A virus has to be one of two things, it is either the debris of a cell that escaped phagocytosis or it is the result of cell metabolism, nothing more, nothing less. Where else in the universe could it come from if it contains RNA and DNA found only in living organisms?

A virus, being just a clump of protein, cannot DO anything, contrary to all the great scientific treatises on the subject! Only a living cell can DO something. DOING requires life and intelligence. Intelligence is the capability of a living organism to respond to its environment in a manner that is beneficial to the organism.

All Life Takes Birth with Intelligence

Intelligence is Life. Intellect is something we cultivate. Intelligence is a right brain function of our primitive brain. It will always give you the right advice intuitively. Intellect on the other hand is based on education, it is gained from book knowledge etc. Intellect will give you BAD advice, intelligence always gives you the best advice - it is the organisms response to the environment connection. Your dog has intelligence for example, not intellect.

A good example nowadays is that a man with great intellect and lots of education will inject a foreign protein into a newborn infant lacking a developed immune system, with the intent of "protecting" the infant against a disease known only to be suffered by adult druggies.

Or this same highly educated person will recommend that pregnant women in Africa be given AZT and similar drugs to "kill" HIV in their systems. If these women absorb those drugs they will die themselves, and certainly if they do live and give birth, their babies will be in serious trouble. HIV is a harmless passenger virus!

All this because of intellect rather than intelligence. So what we have is clinical approaches based upon the GTOD.

If a cell is sick because it has been poisoned by its environment it will make produce toxins. If someone in a white lab coat collects a whole bunch of those toxins and injects it into another living entity, chances are pretty good that the entity might succumb to the poison if enough is injected.

This is called science nowadays. I call it misguided nonsense based upon a long ago discredited theory (GTOD) that has been kept alive by the criminal element that exists in every society in every age.

Getting back to the stimulus for this message: Putting H2O2 into the ear will dry it out if one indulges in that activity on a regular basis.

I have effected cures in "itchy ear syndrome" by having patients put drops of apple cider vinegar into their ears. The itch is due to lack of calcium, due to lack of stomach acidity, due to too much refined starch in the diet, due to lack of fat in the bloodstream etc etc.

I also have used the H2O2 in ears packed with wax to help loosen it up after it has been oil soaked for a few minutes (any oil will do such as olive etc.) a small dropper with H202 suctioning and squirting repeatedly really loosens up the old wax.

I don't think I'd be using H2O2 to "cure" flu except to give the patient something to do other than going to an MD for drugs. Too much of that will dry out the ears and then more problems will ensue. So those of you who follow that advice be careful about the dryness issue. Just don't make a habit of it. Prevent the flu by avoiding the sweets and junk foods over the holidays, you'll be surprised at the results!

Only the body can CURE the flu.

In fact, regardless of what the doctor does, regardless of what medication is used, only the body can heal the body. The medication or whatever is used, simply stimulates the body into action - and the doctor hopes that the action is profitable.

You really need to review the GTOD and the idea that we "catch" things from one another - that idea has caused more death and suffering than all of the wars and all of the armies in the entire recorded history of mankind.
