Mycobacteria
Mycobacteria are microbes that, during the healing phase (PCL), consume and break down excess ("tumour") tissue that formed during conflict activity in endoderm and old-mesoderm tissues (old-brain–relayed tissues).
Mycobacteria — including the well-known tuberculosis mycobacterium — become active only during the healing phase, and only when excess tissue created during the conflict-active phase of a special biological program is no longer needed and essentially becomes "dead" tissue available as a nutrient source.
What Mycobacteria Break Down
Mycobacteria primarily break down endodermal growths related to morsel conflicts:
- lung tumours
- liver tumours
- intestinal tumours
- uterine tumours
- thickened tissue in the kidney collecting tubules
- tumours of the bladder trigonum
- and more.
Mycobacteria also become active in the healing phase of certain old mesoderm special biological programs, breaking down smelly caseated cysts.
Why Mycobacteria Must Grow During the Active Phase
Because tissue grows during the conflict-active phase of old-brain special biological programs, the microbes which participate in the healing phase must also grow during the active phase — so that their population is large enough to meet the demand of breaking down the tumour at conflictolysis.
As with fungi and certain bacteria, the proliferation of mycobacteria during the active phase of a morsel conflict (or certain attack conflicts) is facilitated through the co-evolution of mycobacteria alongside other specialized cells of the endoderm germ layer. The evolutionary history of each germ layer includes specialization of both tissue cells and the microorganisms that work with them — microorganisms not conventionally seen as "belonging" to the germ layer. This is yet another major disagreement between the Germanische Heilkunde and conventional medicine, which depends heavily on the Germ Theory of Disease.
The Healing Phase Process
Mycobacteria present in the body at the time of the DHS come out of "dormancy" during the conflict-active phase, however, the full microbes do not form. The mycobacteria proliferate genetically along with the tumour tissue. They don't "mature," don't consume tissue, and aren't visible under a microscopic examination of the tissue, etc. during the active phase of the special biological program. (Analogous to how mushroom spores can be present in massive numbers, but they do not proliferate into mushroom bodies and the mycelial mat until conditions are appropriate).
At the moment of conflict resolution, when the tumour stops growing and begins to break down, the mycobacteria activate fully, become fully-developed cells, and begin consuming the tumour tissue – creating the condition that conventional medicine diagnoses as "mycobacteria infection" or "tuberculosis infection," for example.
Mycobacteria activity during the healing phase produces the metabolic effects of:
- night sweats
- a characteristic body odour
- a heightened metabolic demand for protein and certain other nutrients. Inability to meet this demand is the cause of the "wasting" and "consumption" associated with tuberculosis infection.
- these are symptoms in addition to the symptoms produced by heightened vagotonia. The mycobacteria, however, do not cause the heightened vagotonia.
After completion of the healing phase, the extra mycobacteria are excreted from the body along with the tumour cells, and the cavities and scar tissue left behind will scar and show calcium deposits.
The healing phase and mycobacteria will remove slightly more tissue than was present before the DHS. This will leave what is visible as a cavern or hole in the tissue after completion of the special biological program. Multiple relapses of this process will produce what is seen as "emphysema" in the lungs, "cirrhosis" in the liver, and softening of breast tissue as examples.
If Mycobacteria Are Absent
If mycobacteria are not present in the body at the time of the DHS, they cannot participate in the healing phase. Tumour breakdown will be much slower and the healing phase will take significantly longer.
