Opinion
"It ought to be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things. Because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions- and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new. This coolness arises partly from fear of the opponents, who have the laws on their side, and partly from the incredulity of men, who do not readily believe in new things until they have had a long experience of them." -Niccolo Machiavelli
There is so much talk today about stem cell research. When stem cells were discovered in 1961 the medical world ranted and raved as though they had discovered the wheel. Far from it. They hadn't even rediscovered the wheel; all they had discovered was a spoke! Since 1961 medical researchers have been barking up the wrong tree as they have basked in the simplicity of stem cell research. They should have been aiming higher. 100 years before stem cells were discovered Professor Antoine Pierre Bechamp had discovered the creators of the stem cell-the microzymas!
Studying stem cells instead of studying microzyma is like using a betamax video instead of a VHS, a laserdisc machine instead of a DVD player, a minidisc player instead of an ipod, a gas lamp instead of electric lamp and a steam locomotive instead of an electric train. Stem cell research is moribund, clumsy technology! Mainstream nanomedicne has completely missed the road by focusing on stem cell research and foolishly refusing to acknowledge the existence of cellular dust i.e. the microzymas.
The bottom line is that a stem cell, no matter how small or undifferentiated is still a cell. A microzyma is another entity altogether. The longest living stem cells live for 5 months to 3 years before dying out. Microzyma live on indefinitely. Microzyma have never been observed to perish! Microzyma are immortal as far as can be estimated.
Let the medical world stop clutching straws and begin to grasp the living, luscious plant. Studying stem cells might improve health; but studying microzymas might hold the key to immortality itself!!! I foresee a microzyma/stem cell war which will be an offshoot of the germ theory/terrain theory or germ theory/ germ terrain duality theory war. May the best man win. May science and truth triumph over dogma and fairytales!

Most doctors worldwide are today extremely hostile to anything that even remotely questions the germ theory, that is to say "germ theory" as defined by Pasteur. They react to any probing of pasteurian germ theory as a religious fanatic would to proselytization. I have done some research on this matter and fingers keep pointing to one man-Abraham Flexner! Abraham Flexner, despite lacking a medical degree or any health related qualification of any kind was 100% convinced that the germ theory as interpreted by Louis Pasteur was the only way forward for medicine. He was so fanatical he refused to visit any physiotherapy establishment and stated that the practitioners thereof should face criminal trial!
Before Flexner's report was implemented people in America had a choice what medical theory to follow to become a doctor.After Flexner, you could only legally call yourself a doctor and hold the MD degree if you had trained in germ theory medicine and germ theory medicine ALONE. Prior to Flexner there were schools of eclectic medicine all over the USA. These schools did not reject the germ theory. They taught germ theory medicine AS WELL as physiotherapy, electrotherapy, osteopathy etc. As the US government started to enforce the 1910 Flexner report one by one these eclectic medical institutions were shut down. Since America was the most influential country on earth it wasn't long before other countries toed the line.
The ultimate and indisputable proof Flexner was wrong can be summarized thus-
A. Many of the practices rubbished by Flexner [such as physiotherapy] have come to their own, are now accepted as mainstream, and have helped many people.
B. Doctors trained via the six year route in Britain and elsewhere hold their own when working alongside eight year trained American doctors.
C. Even practices like homeopathy and hydrotherapy dismissed by Flexner have been recognized by the WHO as not being entirely useless and are rapidly making a comeback as "complementary medicine"
D. Even in the US today many are calling for the 8 year medical program to be shortened, and some American colleges have shortened their programs to 7 years.
