The Hydration/pH/Oxygenation axis is one of the key points in Kissing the Black Dog. 

Many people are unaware that germ theory is just that, a theory. It has not been concussively proven. It supports a multiple billion dollar industry.

The Microbe is Nothing the Soil Everything may be closer to the truth. Justas genetic was been surpassed by eli-enegetics, germ theory and the pseudo-science that may have brought it into being is now being challenged.

Keep the body hydrated, in a healthy pH range and increase oxygen levels and  unhealthy microbes find it harder to prosper. This is not new material, it has been shown many times over.
