It is generally believed that infection is a killer of the past.

Wrong! Research now shows that our big killers, from cancers and coronaries to dementia and diabetes are largely infection-driven. Indeed, it is difficult to find a pathology that does not have an infectious associate.

 

From ‘gobs and guts' to ‘genitals and gnats', this is a no-nonsense guide to how you can better prepare yourself for battle in the Infection Game of life. The fundamental premise behind the book is the adoption ofa Paleo-Ketogenic Diet. Dr Sarah Myhill writes: "As I constantly reiterate, to the boredom of my friends and the irritation of my daughters, there is little point in progressing to other interventions until the PK diet is established." Dr Sarah Myhill and Craig Robinson are also the authors of The PK Cookbook (for more information on this book/a review copy please email info@literallypr.com).

 

Cheap and effective defences are within the grasp of all of us. We have all the weapons we need to win the arms race. This new book provides the intellectual imperatives and practical know-how to conquer the established, prevent the potential and postpone the inevitable. The Infection Game shows us how we can maximise our defences and martial our weapons so that we are ready to defeat the infectious organisms we encounter every day and in epidemic situations.

 

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. Or maybe there is...

 

You and I are a free lunch for bacteria, yeasts, viruses, fleas, flies, ticks, worms and... what else? These invaders have been struggling for survival for all the many billions of years during which we have been evolving. Their struggle has always had the ultimate aim of making themselves at home in our very comfortable bodies. They have developed extraordinary and complex strategies to succeed. In response, we have evolved defences, including a fantastic immune system which is just as intelligent and adaptive as these invaders. Indeed, the immune system shares many attributes with the brain - it is intelligent, decision making and just as mysterious.

We currently think we have won this arms race, but we are wrong. We have been lulled into a false sense of security by drugs and vaccinations. We are in the ‘phoney war' - the enemy is evolving fast and is just over the horizon. Resistance to antimicrobials is already a major cause of death and the efficacy of vaccination has been over-egged. We need a fresh approach to the arms race."
