Doesn't seem to good for lots of businesses to find there's lots of toxins in

the food either... most things have more than one cause. Finding one cause

doesn't negate another...

Hi Chi,

I must have misread the article or something, as I was reading over it

briefly. I didn't realize it was about infectious agents, I was thinking

chemical agents. I guess I misunderstood the article and you. That's what I

get for scanning ;-)

But in general, it does seem like some people like to think one thing causing

soemthing means something else doesn't. For example, some people think sugar

doesn't cause tooth decay topically just because it does internally.

However, if sugar can feed pathogenic bacteria in the gut, I don't see why it

can't in the mouth. Seems to me sugar harms the teeth by both methods.
