Making some lifestyle changes, undoubtfully, makes a huge difference in our quest for good health. Before treatment is given to a patient, host factors must be well understood and considered.  The environmental factors, including germs, pollutants and toxins, are essential in the decision making process. For germs, sensitivity to the antimicrobial drug, and for cancer, tumor sensitivity to the anti-cancer drug, must be ascertained. The stage of the disease will determine the appropriate approach and therapy to be instituted. The reason why disease occurs, in the first place, includes host susceptibility; which could be seen in enabling factors like disrupted immunity and metabolism, which in turn could be conditioned by genetics, sex, age or pre-existing conditions but may be alleviated by exercise or nutrition; and  environmental causes like germs with their virulence or triggers like pollutants, toxins...

Most of us erroneously think that taking an antibiotic or, for that matter, any antimicrobial, on a continuous basis is a wonderful idea, if we want to get rid of an infection. Alas, we equally need a good immunity to do so. We do not need a continuous infusion in antimicrobial chemotherapy. Rather an intermittent infusion(interrupted and spaced-out infusions), a bolus injection or an oral administration of a drug may be all that is needed. The reasons for this are quite simple: The immune system is usually disrupted and weakened by currently available antimicrobial drugs, due to their toxicity to the immune cells. Immune cells need to proliferate(grow) when they encounter intruder microbes(germs) so as to kill them and antibiotics do no help this, in any way, since they(the antibiotics) kill and will not promote growth. So, continuous infusion, though theoretically the ideal approach to kill a germ, in practice, is undesirable, as it does not allow immune cells to recover adequate...
