I keep rehearsing in my mind how to prepare for surgery. I have lost 40 lbs. over the last few months prepping for it. I needed to lose it anyway at my age.

But my mind got to thinking about other stuff: namely prepping in advance against infections.

Getting opened up, opens you up to microbials and bacterial agents. After my dad had cancer my mom had him on a strict no sugar, no yeast(breads), no fruits diet. Bacteria can't live in alkaline enviros either.

So, I was thinking going all-in on a cruciferous, leafy vegan game plan for a couple months. Without sugar, bacteria can't feed inside you. All veggies, all the time.

Also, I was thinking about ingesting raw garlic cloves, diced, and then swallowed. In addition to the garlic, my wife, gives me essential oils, and one in particular called Thieves, that since I started taking it 2 years ago, I haven't gotten sick once. Its real powerful. It has concentrations of Oregano in it.

Anyway, I just can't foresee how bacteria could survive in an inoculated environment like that if you coat your innards that way for months prior to your surgery date.

1) No breads. No yeast. No starches. No fruit. No Sugar.

2) As many dark, leafy veggies you can eat as well as some other colored varieties.

3) Garlic & Thieves.
