WHAT DOES ZYMOTIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Zymotic disease

Zymotic diseases, a 19th-century medical term for acute infectious diseases, especially "chief fevers and contagious diseases." Zyme or microzyme was the name of the organism presumed to be the cause of the disease. As originally employed by Dr W. Farr, of the British Registrar-General's department, the term included the diseases which were "epidemic, endemic and contagious," and were regarded as owing their origin to the presence of a morbific principle in the system, acting in a manner analogous to, although not identical with, the process of fermentation. In the late 19th century, Antoine Béchamp proposed that tiny organisms he termed "microzymas," and not cells, are the fundamental building block of life. Bechamp claimed these microzymas are present in all things—animal, vegetable, and mineral—whether living or dead. Microzymas are what coalesce to form blood clots and bacteria. Depending upon the condition of the host, microzymas assume various forms. In a diseased body, the microzymas become pathological bacteria and viruses. In a healthy body, microzymas form healthy cells. When a plant or animal dies, the microzymas live on.
