ANTIBIOTICS - MYTH OF A WONDER DRUG?

One of the spectacular life savers in modern medicine are certainly antibiotics. With pros and cons – and with scientifically validated alternatives in nature. Learn more…

Anne Lopez from El Paso, TX, asks:
 
Suffering from different ailments, I renew my prescription for an antibiotic every 2 weeks. A cycle – vicious cycle?
 
Dr. Fritz:

CHANCES
 

Most of us may be grateful for the day in medical history when Scottish scientist Alexander Fleming discovered Penicillin as an antibiotic almost a century ago. With millions of lives saved.

LIMITS

Since, however, there are no pharmaceutical wonder drugs on this planet, ,also antibiotics are facing limits we better understand. Especially, as the use of antibiotics is on the rise – with more than 800 prescriptions per 1,000 people each year.  
 
With a negative impact, inter alia, on your gut flora balance and your bowel system in general, including irritable bowel disease and celiac disease. Not enough, Since, however, there are no pharmaceutical wonder drugs on this planet, with long-term administration of antibiotics for 2 months or longer during adulthood, the risk of adenomas (the precedence of bowel cancer) develops.
 
Scientifically validated by the Nurses’ Health Study, a mega analysis collaborated by, inter alia, Harvard Medical School, Harvard School of Public Health, and Dana-Faber Cancer Institute, etc.
 
On the other end of the lifeline, multiple antibiotic use in early childhood is especially problematic, as children younger than 10 have the highest antibiotic use, receiving 3 courses of antibiotics by the age of 2 and 10 courses by age 10.
 
With a negative impact on gut bacteria. Also, it can lead to increased bone growth and weight gain. According to research at the New York University Langone School of Medicine.   
 
Not to talk about the fact that synthetic-chemical antibiotics only can tackle bacteria, but are worthless for viruses.
 
Above all, bacterial antibiotic resistance is skyrocketing right now.
 
Leaves us with the question if there are

NATURAL ANTIBIOTICS

without limits and side effects, and still effective.
 
Since our body is an ‘ecosystem’ strictly based on natural laws, the answer is yes, we do have natural alternatives.
 
E.g., the red berries of the Brazilian peppertree, native to the Amazon rainforest where it is used successfully for hundreds of years, and now to be found also as an invasive plant at our ‘doorstep’ in Florida.
 
This natural antibiotic may even disarm the MRSA bacteria for which modern medicine has not found an appropriate answer yet.
 
Scientifically validated, inter alia, by Emory University School of Medicine’s Department of Dermatology.
 
Another natural antibiotic is the ‘kitchen herb’ Cilantro which – according to research at the University of California in Berkeley – may inhibit many different bacterial infections. It proved even twice as effective to kill Salmonella than common antibiotic drugs. Thus keeping many health conditions at bay.
 
Just to name 2 alternatives out of nature’s herbal kingdom.

IN A NUTSHELL

Needless to stress that the very best ‘antibiotic’ is certainly a strong immune system which, to be sure, you cannot buy from the pharmacy but only can derive from nature...
