Bechamp or Pasteur?

by Ethel D. Hume

This volume contains new editions of two books. R. Pearson's Pasteur, Plagiarist, Imposter , originally published in 1942, serves as the introduction. It details some of the reasons for the rancorous relationship between Louis Pasteur and Antoine Béchamp. Pearson points out many of the problems in Pasteur's work, and provides details, statistics and evidence to support his case. Some of the frauds which were eventually admitted by the Pasteur Institute are mentioned here. Ethel Hume's Béchamp or Pasteur? , originally published in 1923, is the larger work, and provides the main body of evidence, in three 1. The Mystery of Fermentation 2. The Microzymas 3. The Cult of the Microbe This book is a compelling and thorough account of Pasteur's plagiarism and scientific fraud. It contains the evidence of the false grounds on which the germ theory of disease was elevated to its current status as a dogma, and beyond question. In this forgotten chapter of the history of biology and medicine, we are shown how powerful interests and agendas have prevailed over genuine science. Here are strong reminders of the powers which control the pharmaceutical and regulatory industries to this day. Hume details the contention between Béchamp and Pasteur, and presents ample references to the original source material and supporting evidence. No claim is left undocumented or unsupported. Both authors are clearly not fans of Pasteur or his corruption of the principles of science, and they declare their intentions openly. They seek to undo a massive medical and scientific fraud. This new edition of their work is presented with the same intent. The real facts, which have been suppressed for so long, should be revealed to the world. Modern science needs to return to this bifurcation point, and take the pleomorphic path. When this phenomenon is truly understood, many aspects of modern medical thought will disappear, as do all things which outlive their usefulness. In Béchamp's work, we can see on display the foundations of the quantum biology and epigenetics which inform the work of such modern researchers as Joe Dispenza, Gregg Braden, and Bruce Lipton. This is a foundational text of the new biology, and should be required reading for anyone seeking to understand how the body actually functions and heals. This book should be read by every doctor, health professional, nutritionist, and biologist. "Nothing is lost, nothing is created... everything is transformed. Nothing is the prey of death. Everything is the prey of life." - Antoine Béchamp

"Bechamp's deep insight had taught him the connection between science and religion - the one a search after truth, and the other the effort to live up to individual belief. His faith had widened to a breadth incomprehensible to those who even suggested the appointment of a commission to recommend the placing on the Roman Index of his book Les Mycrozymas, which culminates in the acclamation of God as the Supreme Source. Bechamps teachings are in direct opposition to materialistic views. But his opponents had not the insight to see that the Creator is best demonstrated by understanding the marvels of [His] Creation."

So then, the materialistic view - the Germ Theory - of Pasteur wins, for a time, over the Truth found by Bechamp and discussed in Les Mycrozymas .

Therefore, in these modern times we still lift up the materialistic view and fight against God by pasteurizing our food - milk, meat, vegetable, et. all.

We are so blind. God help us to see.

Slugish at times, but worth your time

This is good for exposing Pasteur as a fraud. In our day where you pushed towards vaccination you need to know the pathetic and cruel history of vaccination. Vaccines lined the pockets of injectors with money while shortening the life spans of man and beast. No, little has changed. Men now are getting very rich while others suffer from extremely painful vaccine reactions. Lest anyone think I am too emotional or opinionated for this review, I close with one basic fact: There is absolutely no longitudinal study, (10 years or more) that validates any vaccine!

It’s incredible how much of medical history has been stifled and hidden. This book was a bit difficult to get through in certain parts because of the old, dry writing style. Nevertheless, it was worth every moment. It’s very interesting to see the parallels between then and now and all the dangerous, unethical medical procedures being performed on civilians. It’s insane to see how early vaccines were such a failure and many of the same things happening today from the C19 jabs is merely history repeating itself. I love that the author included dates, journal entries, and various published writings about the rise of Pasteurian methods within the medical community. Since the beginning, the love of money and fame has certainly been the backbone to western medicine. It is also amusing that Pasteur was noted as being mediocre and average chemist. It makes sense why he had to plagiarize Bechamp and also use his business sense to gain connections with the establishment to push his unproven scientific views. This is a good book to begin educating one’s self on why Germ Theory and the modern understanding of disease are both wrong.

In my mind, clearly Bechamp was light years ahead of Pasteur. This book offers more evidence that the germ theory is not very accurate and that the terrain theory of disease makes much more sense. Much of the modern stone-age medical system is built around the never-to-be-questioned germ theory of disease. It makes more sense to me that there are no diseases, only conditions that create them. Should this truth become more evident, much of the pharmaceutical cabal would die off. It's a shame that Pasteur is regarded as such a hero while he tried to copy much of the work of BeChamp.

Amazing and eye opening!

Really informative

I will definitely be looking for more books on this subject, and I'm so glad I resisted flu vaccines all these years

[Jesse Stoddard · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fascinating and revealing. This should be required reading for every student of science and medicine.

If the majority of humanity was seeking the truth as Bechamp was... Unfortunately real science, in line with nature, is not pattentable nor profitable; it's easier, and very lucrative for some, to blame external factors and microorganisms rather than our choices and the environment we allow our bodies to be exposed to.

Amazing book. Highly reccomended.
Takes you through the history of Bechamp's experiments and in contrast how Pasteur plagiarised.

It also talk about the fallacies of germ theory. Must read.

[Thomas Dobson · Rating 4 out of 5]

An excellent exposition of the fraudulent plagiarism of Pasteur. The book does this by explaining the properly scientific discoveries, by Bechamp, of significant topics such as fermentation and "microzymas", and how Pasteur distorted these discoveries for his own recognition and renown. It is sad how science was obscured due to a difference in personality: Bechamp was the analytical scientist and Pasteur was the ostentatious salesman. It It is somewhat technical in places but easy enough to follow as a layman/woman.

[Malachi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very interesting.
I'm not an expert or scientist in any of this.
I always enjoy reading various viewpoints and this did that very well.
When books are well-written like this, it makes me eager to keep learning and read more.

I’m abandoning this book. While I appreciate the author’s writing and research, I’m getting bogged down in the technical aspects.
