The Barron report The first half of
the twentieth century will long be remembered as an age of “scientific
enlightenment”. Many great medical breakthroughs came into being along
with the “horrors of nuclear annihilation”. Unfortunately, politics and
profit motive advertising have served to dampen the overall good effects
of the age of enlightenment. To begin with,
everything taught in colleges and universities is fifty to one hundred
years old at the time it is being taught. This time lag is a “built in”
but detrimental factor largely the cardinal sin of the political factor.
Churches who call themselves “Protestant” as opposed to “Catholic” and
their universities have been controlled by powerful forces that too
closely resemble the mistakes of the dark ages of the Catholic church.
Three professors of a certain church, that draws it name from the humble
locality of Jesus' early years, have written books that seem contrary to
their church's belief. One of those professors lost his job, which he had
held for twenty five years, as a result of his book's content. Profit motive
advertising has caused people to disregard the biological teaching of
“things that depend on each other” in nature, called symbiosis. The
prevailing scenario is: A television ad for a certain soap or
antibacterial will cause a certain degree of hysteria and lead to a
certain mentality of “if I don't understand it, I'll get a big stick and
kill it”. The fallacy of this has been over hyped by the ecologists
concerning things visible to the naked eye, but what about microscopic
things? We are slowly
emerging from an era of “antibiotics” and just now seeing multiple ads on
television for “probiotics”. It began with a product called
Activia. Now there are several
products, and because of the sensitivity of the potential buyer, they
never tell you what they really do. There is on line a comprehensive report called
the Barron Report. The report begins as follows: When you are healthy, over 100 trillion microorganisms, from some 400
different species, flourish in your intestinal tract, aiding in digestion,
absorption, and the production of significant amounts of B vitamins and
enzymes. But more importantly, they crowd out all harmful bacteria --
allowing them no place to gain a foothold. Unfortunately, the levels of beneficial bacteria decline dramatically
as the human body ages. Some of the reasons for this decline
include: The remainder of the

person who can read would do their self a favor by reading the report.
