What is this book about?

Here is the blurb from the back page of The Infection Game: 

Dr Myhill writes:

‘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. Cheap and effective defences are within the grasp of all of us. We have all the weapons we need to win the arms race. Our 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. Get ready for the onslaught by:

*Understanding your enemy – the familiar, the known nasties and the ‘emerging’

*Understanding your immune system – your ‘standing army’ – and how to help it

*Being at the ready with your battle first-aid box, including vitamin C, iodine and herbals

*Following the key strategies for defence and counter-attack – ‘Groundhog’ Basic, Acute and Chronic

Just do it!

Book reviews

Here is a selection of book reviews:

Dr Shideh Pouria, MB BS BSc MRCP(UK) PhD, Consultant Physician
Throughout our years of training as doctors we were told that one day medical science would find infections as the root cause of many common chronic degenerative and inflammatory diseases afflicting mankind. Today, current scientific evidence has corroborated this hypothesis in many conditions as research has shown associations between infections and conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis, Alzheimer’s, chronic fatigue syndrome and cardiovascular disease to name a few. We now experience such epidemics ubiquitously. Furthermore, the Deputy Chief Medical Officer for England, who has special expertise in, and responsibility for, pandemics, tells us that the next most likely plague to affect humanity is the H7N9 strain of the flu virus which is circulating in poultry in China with a potential 38% mortality rate. Dr Myhill’s new book is an eloquent and informative text which explores the relationship between infections and various medical conditions. She offers a wealth of accessible information whether you are interested in strengthening your immune system to combat epidemics or benefiting from the simple, safe, scientific techniques she describes for preventing chronic disease. Dr Myhill’s book may well make the difference between succumbing to infections or having sufficient resistance and resilience to withstand their onslaught.

Dr Armin Schwarzbach, Armin Labs, Germany I run a laboratory specialising in the diagnosis of chronic infection. We know for a fact that chronic infection is a major root cause of chronic fatigue, inflammation, degenerative disease, neurological disease and cancer. In this book, DrMyhill astutely identifies the big issues and, more importantly, what we can all do to prevent and treat infection. In her usual straight forward, pragmatic style she details regimes that are highly effective but within the power of us all to put in place. If you are to stand a chance of surviving the next epidemic and living to your full potential you must read this book, absorb it and… just do it!

Dr Sarah Davies, MB ChB MRCGP AFMCP2015,General Practitioner, Stockport, UK In her inimitable fashion, Dr Myhill once again makes a plain and straightforward case for improving our health and longevity with the natural tools we all have access to: a good paleo-keto diet, adequate nutrition and natural antimicrobial remedies. Engaging and accessible to all, this book needs to be at the top of everyone’s first aid kit.

Why 'The Infection Game'?

The title was inspired by Alan Turing's seminal paper "COMPUTING MACHINERY AND INTELLIGENCE" ('The Imitation Game') which you can download here.

In the introduction, we extend this mathematical connection by quoting G H Hardy: 

The hypothesis – disease, degeneration and death are all driven by infection.

A mathematical proof, like a chess problem, to be aesthetically satisfying, must possess three qualities: 
*inevitability,
*unexpectedness and 
*economy.
A Mathematician’s Apology 1940 Godfrey Harold Hardy (1887 – 1947)

Inevitability: We will all die. My job as a doctor is both to postpone that moment for as
long as possible and also to maximise quality of life – quantity and quality.

Unexpectedness: We have been led to believe that infection is a killer of the past.
Wrong. We now know our big killers, from cancers and coronaries to dementia and
diabetes, are largely driven by infection. Slow-burn herpes viruses, once acquired, live
in our bodies for life to create immunological havoc. Microbes in the fermenting gut
drive gut tumours. They also drive psychiatric disease and arthritis. Neurological disease
is the commonest cause of death in Westerners and all varieties have an infectious
driver. Indeed, it is difficult to find a pathology (illness) that does not have an infectious
associate.

Economy: The solutions are intellectually simple but practically difficult. Cheap and
effective defences are within the grasp of us all. We have all the weapons we need. What
follows in this book provides the intellectual imperative and practical know-how to
conquer the established, prevent the potential and postpone the inevitable.

But this book is far from an abstract mathematical treatise - it is a practical guide as to how to 'play' The Infection Game and how to stay ahead in the arms race!

Stylistic note

Use of the first person singular in this book refers to me, Dr Sarah Myhill. One can assume that the medicine and biochemistry are mine, as edited by Craig Robinson, and that the classical and mathematical references are Craig’s.
