I remember back in NY how months ago up until my brother died, despite being in remission from cancer, thrush, C-DIFF, and MRSA infections, the diet
craved in and stubbornly indulged in was anything but healthy.
Whenever I visited, I would find my mother toting heavy bags full of the 24-packs of Coke and Pepsi, as well as packs of cigarettes, and 2 liters of
Vodka. I pleaded with her to stop fulfilling such a nasty request, but she'd argue it's all my bro would drink. I pleaded with him how the hfcs
sugar acid and caffeine all work against any efforts at killing off the infections, maintaining alkalinity in the blood against cancer relapse, and
the ongoing complaint of severe insomnia mind you, drinking soda especially beginning midnight thru to around 5am, of all times?!
All efforts were in vain, as my brother laughed somewhat demonically about having no will power at all nor wanting any, during those months. Looking
back, I believe his soul was already gone, forced out by the negative possession, ridden with disease and total apathy even towards one's own body
and mindset. As I live on the opposite coast, there was little I could aside for pleading with my parents to have him commited to a permanent rehab.
Instead, they would just break down and pull him out of rehab within a week, cause he was.. crying. (Sheesh)
Anyways, I dont thing I've come across any discussions about alcohol feeding infections on here. But I'm confident most of yall already know that
the body processes alcohol into sugar (and other stuff, ie, volatile acetylaldehyde which elicits drunken stupor, kills brain cells and other
organ/elles).
I just wanted to put that out there in case some of your parents as well claim alcohol 'kills the germs' my father to this swears by it to the
point even though he's lost all his teeth to diabetic/alcoholic infections already and isn't even into his 60s yet, still takes shots whenever has
any tooth problems and even dabs alcohol on the gums claiming it kills the infection.. well that's alcoholism for ya. Anyways, its my understanding
that alcohol does nothing to kill internal infections in human bodies, its only effective antibiotically for topical antiseptic use, right?
Oh and the 2nd way alchohol/sugar worsens infections is that they somehow suppress the immune reponse. Right? Not sure the exact mechanism as far as
how but thats what they do, too!
