"If too much fertilizer is furnished plant life, there will be overgrowth, with arrested
germination--sterilization. In animal life an oversupply of nourishment produces plethory
and sterility. The enervation brought on from overwork renders the body a prey to germs and
parasites. Those who eat beyond digestive power weaken the digestive secretions to such an
extent that germs and the germinal seeds of parasites, which enter the stomach and bowels
with the food, instead of being digested as they are in a normal state, find a kindly host who
allows them to germinate and develop. This is why some people are infested with parasites
and why others are not. When the body's enzymic protection is below par from general
enervation, then the ubiquitous bacillus mixes up in all the affairs of life and gives
plausibility to the idea that germs cause disease."
