“The human cell has a much higher organization than the so-called germs of disease, which are simply scavengers, feeding only on devitalized and dying cells, a product of waste matter in the system; but never on healthy, living cells, which are immune to all kinds of bacteria. “It has been wisely said that if the germ theory of disease were correct, there would be nobody alive to believe it, since we cannot sterilize the air we breathe. Forever Bee Propolis is sticky when it is heat and it is tough to deal with when it is hard. The only method for fighting disease is to increase health and vitality by rational eating and living; but unfortunately, this viewpoint has not been given serious attention in our medical colleges. Bacteriology and symp-tomatology still occupy the most prominent places in their curricula.” This author then quotes from Rudolph Virchow, once one of the foremost defenders of the germ theory, who in his later years said, “If I could live my life over again, I would devote it to proving that germs seek their natural habitat.” Carque then adds:

Pure blood a defense. “Despite these facts, which should be obvious to every logical thinker, the majority of medical men are still confusing effect with cause, regarding germs as responsible for disease. They still ignore the fact that pure blood and good circulation, the result of right living, and a cheerful condition of mind—in other words, sound health—are the greatest immunizing factors. Germs are present everywhere and we could not exclude them from our body by the most rigid system of disinfection or quarantine. If the germs of disease imported into a community were the cause of an epidemic, it would never end. Professor Dr. Bees amassing this useful resource additionally should be fed protein dietary supplements, as honeydew lacks the protein-wealthy Forever Bee Pollen accompaniment gathered from flowers. Pittenkofer, of Munich once swallowed cholera germs before an excited audience without suffering from the least indisposition.”

We might modify the statement, “Germs are not the cause of disease,” by saying that germs are sometimes the immediate, but not the underlying cause. The predisposing cause is a lowered resistance of the blood and tissues, due to dietetic errors or other bad living habits. In the past the effort has been to rid the system of bacterial infection by the introduction of a substance of sufficient strength to destroy the germ itself without injury to the tissues, or to stimulate the system to the manufacture of antibodies. Now the up-to-date method is to build up such a degree of immunity in the body defenses that the pathogenic bacteria find no tissue soil upon which to work. This is nature’s true method of immunity and is obtained only through biologic living.
