Natural Antibiotics
Nature has it’s own abundance of natural antibiotics that are every bit as effective, and in most cases, even more effective at eradicating and preventing illnesses than those that have been so over prescribed by doctors that many strains of harmful bacteria are immune to at least one of the commonly prescribed antibiotics available on the market today. Too many of the pharmacutical antibiotics have been rendered useless by the common practice of putting them into animal feed of animals, like cows and chickens, that are bred for human consumption, or prescribed for viral illnesses that an antibiotic is useless against which in turn has caused a major rise in prescription antibiotic resistant bacterial diseases. For these reasons, and others, the return to natural antibiotics that most, if not all, of these diseases have little or no resistance to is showing a major upswing in recent years.
The origins of natural antibiotics go back to the dawn of mankind as a sentient species. Natural antibiotics have been around in the form of food and teas, and metals since this planet formed and began to host life forms. Silver is one of the best natural antibiotics on the planet. Silver has been found to destroy bacterial infections that are completely resistant and immune to prescription antibiotics. This quote from a doctor tells a bit about the healing antibiotic properties of silver verses prescription antibiotics: "Thanks to eye opening research, silver is emerging as a wonder of modern medicine. An antibiotic kills perhaps half-dozen different disease organisms, but silver kills some 650. Resistant strains fail to develop...silver is the best all around germ-fighter we have." Dr. Harry Margraf, St. Louis, Missouri, in Science Digest, March 1978.
There are many other natural alternatives to prescription antibiotics that do not have the negative effects of causing a build up of resistance of harmful bacteriological organisms that cause some very serious illnesses. Probiotics are also an excellent source of natural antibiotics. These are the organisms found in fermented milk products like yogurt.
Burdock root, slippery elm bark powder, turkey rhubarb, and sheep sorrel are al very good natural antibiotics that can be used together to make a very potent tea that can help the body by purifying the blood, detoxify and cleanse the liver, and soothe irritations and inflammations. Burdock Root is a natural antibiotic known to specifically help neutralize toxins in the blood. It also stimulates liver secretions thus helping the liver eliminate toxic build-ups. It strengthens the liver and other organs with necessary nutrients. Burdock Root is high in chromium, iron, magnesium, silicon, and thiamine and contains many other ingredients such as niacin, riboflavin, vitamin's A and C, and many others. This is a very important difference between chemical drug therapy and natural medicine. The chemical drugs and symptom therapies that are the traditionally prescribed treatements by main stream medicine provide the body with absolutely NO nutrients of any kind to help the body’s own immune system fight the illness. Thus, main stream medicine only treats the symptoms of an illness where as natural medicine seeks to treat and cure the illness.
