I am not opposed to a mix theory between terrain and germ, but some people see that as extremely taboo and simply shilling germ theory. I have had discussions with terrain theorists who posed the question of bacteria as a helpful response explaining their presence corresponding to specific infections, which I find convoluted.

Bacteria supports germ theory because of pasteurization and its effects on the shelf life of beer and dairy. This doesn't mean that pasteurization doesn't cause other problems nor that there's no beneficial bacteria, and we we know both of those things are false. Nature is full of trade offs, and excessive sanitation itself is probably one of them, potentially contributing to autoimmune conditions. I simply think that something like a flesh eating bacteria being scraped and put into a healthy animal and causing similar symptoms and symptoms in both causes totally stopping from antibiotics is too important to throw out knowledge of EVEN IF cause and effect is reversed if some people believe.
