: For flu, cold, and bacterial infections:

Since when have you conceded that bacteria cause disease?  I
thought it was lack of sanitation.  I would ask why you think the
same regimen would work against both bacteria and viruses, but
that would imply that I think that you are capable of logical
thinking.

I have never said that bacteria are not a vector for disease. The
point is that vectors become triggers not universally, but
opportunistically. In what sense does smoking cause lung cancer? For
most people who smoke, it isn't a cause of lung cancer at all. We
avoid smoking to reduce our risk of it. Likewise, bacteria or viruses
are (in transmissable form) vectors, but what's important is that
these vectors require compromised candidates. Poor sanitation, like
poor diet and lifestyle, are also *opportunistic,* not universal,
triggers in disease. What you refuse to grasp is that two things can
be true at once, that a heirarcy of cause and effect can exist in one
organism, and that nutritional status (not drugs) is the primary
factor in adequate biological immunity.

Both garlic and echinacea are antiviral and antibacterial.
