I just want to set the record straight about AIDS!

The members of the American Holistic Medical Association, the
International Academy of Preventive Medicine, as well as many other
practitioners of a Holistic approach to medical care have known, for
ears, the basic mechanism of AIDS.  In the beginning a few
conventional researchers dared to suggest the truth but no one really
liked the idea because it didn't provide for the "white knight of
modern medicine" to ride to the rescue.  It didn't provide the
pharmaceutical industry with a new patent to exploit for 17 years (or
however long a patent runs now).  And, it didn't fit the conventional
paradigm of causation of disease.

Now, however, nearly all researchers are forced to admit the obvious:
AIDS virus cannot infect an AVERAGE healthy human being, let alone a
truly vigorously healthy person.  The virus is an opportunist: it
preys only on those persons whose immune systems are already on the
verge of collapse.  The problem is: the virus attacks what is left of
the immune system and finishes it off.  It is the other opportunistic
pathogens (that have been known for years) that then finish off the
victim.

A West German study, done in 1976, showed that the average person, in
western industrialized society, was exposed to >1000 times as many
stresses/person/day as people were 100 years ago, and that the rate
was increasing faster every year.  90% 0f those stresses were not
psychological, or social, but, were physical, chemical, nutritional,
electromagnetic smog, etc.; ENVIRONMENTAL stresses that didn't even
exist 100 years ago.

Biofeedback research shows us that all stresses cause a fight or
flight response; whether physical or psychological.  If the running or
fighting isnt actually done the readiness to do so accumulates.
Finally, the limit of "readiness" is reached and the person has
insufficient reserves to resist the puny AIDS virus.  The newly
discovered "carriers" of AIDS simply are a little further up the "bell
curve" of resistance in this society: enough resistance to avoid the
disease but not enough to kill the virus completely.

We have the distinction of living in the generation when larger, and
larger #s of people are falling below the critical level on the bell
curve of immunity in this country.  Another perfect example of the
superiority of prevention over treatment.

There is good in all bad things:  The vast amounts of $ being thrown
into AIDS research has allowed us to be able to measure TINY changes
in immune status.  We now have the proof,Holistic Practitioners have
been looking for, of how and why so many of the mind body approaches
work.  The new medical specialty: PSYCHONEUROIMMUNOLOGY, has been
spawned by these advances.

nutritional, electromagnetic smog--ENVIRONMENTEL stresses; each of
which cause a "fight or flight" response.  If the person does not
actually run or fight, the readiness to do so accumulates.
Eventually,a larger, and larger % of people have used up their
reserves to the point where even a puny virus like AIDS can survive.
That's why "carriers of AIDS are now being found: there is a continuum
