What about Antibiotics?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #178 of 184 |
Some of us are taking or have taken antibiotics prescribed to us by
our doctors and or dermatologists. Allopathic medicine does have
its place and there are times when antibiotics are appropriate and
necessary. When your doctor prescribed antibiotics, did your doctor
also tell you that antibiotics, taken long term, will not only kill
the bad bacteria, but also the friendly and good bacteria in our
body? Did you doctor tell you using long-term antibiotic could
create an imbalance with your intestinal flora?

A health body operates in balance. Just like some fungus helps keep
bacteria in check, some bacteria helps to break down food for easier
digestion. When one part of our body is out of balance for a SHORT
TERM, other organs try to rebalance the body. However, when our
body is out of balance LONG TERM, because of things like long term
antibiotic use, more body systems become involved, to try
rebalancing our body, thereby creating more and more imbalance among
more and more organs. Prolonged antibiotic use also weakens our
Immune system.

Overuse of antibiotics is one reason we are beginning to see
antibiotic-resistance bacteria. Some super bacterias are now
resistance to the strongest antibiotics. If you must take
antibiotics, do yourself a favor and do three more things:

1) Take antibiotic only SHORT TERM
2) Take a Prebiotic
3) Take a Probiotic

A Prebiotic, like Arabinogalactan, FOS, etc. help feed the good
bacteria.

Probiotic is the friendly bacteria. Examples of these friendly
bacteria include but not limited to, Lactobacillus Acidophilus,
Bulgaricus, Plantarum, Brevis, Bifidoacteria Bifidum, etc. It is
important to use Probiotics to repopulate friendly bacteria in your
GI tract, after overuse and misuses of antibiotics.

Happy Healing Everyone!
