        Breathing "may" be a fundamental cause as well. So far, 100% of everyone who has ever caught a disease has a history of it.

        This is hardly new. There were books written about the dangers of refined sugars in the 70s.

        Anything refined is bad (tastes good though). Next is corn fructose. Too much subsidized sugar. That's why cheap.

        Pure Stevia seems to be the answer. HFCS is a killer.

        I have to take an online course because you can't define your own word usage?

        It's the human body. It's not that simple. But I believe in your ability to google it yourself.

        You threw the term out there as if it had an accepted meaning that everyone should know. Does it or doesn't it?
