AVOID ANTIBIOTICS

[Guest guest]

I was not sure that the entire article in Kevins newsletter wascopied and pasted, so here it is once again. LynnProduct to Stay Away AntibioticsI want to start with the bottom line - never, ever, ever takeantibiotics unless you are about to die. That's right. Unless youhave days to live, never take antibiotics. Antibiotics shouldvirtually never be taken. Why? Well, consider this when a doctorprescribed antibiotics did he ever perform a test to determine if youhad a bacterial infection? Did he perform a test to determine whichantibiotic out of the hundreds would be the most effective againstthe particular bacterial strain causing your problem? Probably not.These two things are important because in over 90 percent of thecases when an antibiotic is prescribed the problem will not be solvedwith antibiotics. Antibiotics only kill bacteria, they do not killviruses. Most issues that people deal with for which antibiotics areprescribed are not even bacterial; they are viral or some otherissue. Therefore, the antibiotics will be ineffective.The other major problem is in over 90 percent of the cases theantibiotic that is prescribed is not the right one for yourparticular bacterial infection. Usually doctors prescribe the brandthat they happen to have in stock, or the brand for which they aregiven the most money to prescribe. That's right, it's always aboutthe money. Did you know that antibiotics cause chronic joint pain,hearing loss, vision disturbances, and neurological problems? Did youknow that all antibiotics kill friendly bacteria in the colon,automatically leading to a Candida yeast overgrowth? This happenswithout exception. Antibiotics can cause skin rashes, liver failure,and have put people in comas. Antibiotics have been known to causeheart attacks, strokes, and blood clotting. Antibiotics have beenknown to cause chronic pain, muscle pain, and symptoms of dementiaand Alzheimer's. Over 100 million doses of antibiotics are handed outeach year. Even the Center for Disease Control, a U.S. Governmentagency, says that 60 percent are totally unnecessary prescriptions.All antibiotics suppress the immune system and make you moresusceptible to other infections. Antibiotics are now evenscientifically linked to causing breast cancer, autism, asthma,autoimmune diseases, ear infections, hormonal imbalances,infertility, erectile dysfunction, skin conditions, decreasedimmunity and even death. Antibiotics create super bugs that areresistant and stronger than any other infectious-type disease. Thinkabout the fact that every day 50 Americans die from infections thatcan no longer be cured by any antibiotics. Depending on the source,death from prescription medicine in the United States ranks as beingthe number one killer. Some sources say the number two killer, othersthe number three. Either way, prescription medicine kills people toan extent that it should be classified as genocide. Statistics showthat antibiotics have killed over 900,000 people. It is estimatedthat over 10 million people, or more, suffer permanent physiologicaldisorders and major medical conditions that are directly attributableto taking antibiotics, even in small amounts. Yes, some antibioticshave saved some people over the last 30 years, but what about thenearly one million deaths they have absolutely caused and the over 10million people who are permanently physically damaged because ofthem?Antibiotics kill bacteria in the body. They kill all bacteria, goodand bad. When the good and bad bacteria are destroyed, the cell wallruptures and bits of the bacteria now enter the blood and tissues.Our bodies do not like these bacterial bits and react by producinginflammation and autoimmune reactions. These reactions can continueon indefinitely and affect us years later in an adverse way. Manyautoimmune diseases are now being looked at as originating in thedigestive tract and specifically caused by taking antibiotics.Inflammation in the digestive system can create inflammationthroughout the entire body. Antibiotics also cause constipation.Research now suggests that in order to successfully treat anycondition in the body, inflammation must be addressed at the sametime, which means the constipation has to be addressed and theinflammation that the antibiotics cause have to be addressed too.Antibiotics create an imbalance by killing all the good bacteria. Thegood bacteria help to regulate almost every system in the body in oneway or another. The good bacteria are part of your body's naturaldefense system. They help breakdown foods and absorb nutrients. Theyhelp prevent other organisms, like fungus and parasites, fromwreaking havoc and overpowering our bodies. The good bacteria havebeen called the gatekeepers of our body's health. They help us tosynthesize B vitamins, which are necessary for the health of ournervous and digestive systems. If you are lactose intolerant it'sprobably because you've taken antibiotics and you have killed all thegood bacteria. Good bacteria are responsible for breaking downlactose. If you have any other nutritional deficiencies, which youprobably do, one reason is because whatever you take in is notgetting into the cells of your body. Without the good bacteriadominating the internal environment, yeast (or Candida) will convertinto its fungal form. This fungal form has the ability to leave thedigestive tract and spread throughout the body. Once there, itbecomes a source of toxicity throughout the body until it iseliminated. The natural balance can only then be restored. Eachfungal cell will secrete toxins that destroy other bacteria, thusperpetuating the cycle of imbalance and toxicity. These toxins areanother cause of inflammation in the body. The liver, largeintestine, lungs and kidneys eventually become overwhelmed with thetoxic burden and cease to function as they should. As more and moretoxins accumulate the body begins to hold water and we gain weight.If this persists long enough, our inflamed nutrient-starved bodieswill start to waste away. This can be an even harder condition totreat.--Every time you take an antibiotic you create antibiotic-resistantstrains in the body. Antibiotics wipe out the weak strains while thestronger strains survive. These surviving bacteria will now pass ontheir survival secrets to every other organism in the body. Eachsubsequent antibiotic only adds to the knowledge base of thesedeveloping manmade super bugs. The only way to eliminate them is byrestoring the natural balance of good bacterial flora. To do this youmust first eliminate the fungus that has overgrown the body and thedigestive tract, and then you restore the normal bacteria flora.Don't worry, it's not time to panic about antibiotics and what theyhave already done to you, but it is time to start considering how wecan reverse the effects of past antibiotic use and make betterchoices in the future.Anti-Candida diets, like the Lifeforce Plan as outlined in Dr. JeffMcCombs' book Lifeforce, can be the cornerstone to any approach torestoring health to the body. The Lifeforce Plan as described in Dr.McCombs' book helps to eliminate the fungal Candida, detoxify thebody, and restore the natural bacterial flora. If you ever have totake antibiotics in the future, which I don't believe you should, youshould also take an anti-Candida product, an acidophilus. Whenantibiotics were first prescribed years ago you always received aprescription for acidophilus at the same time. This helped to keepthe bacterial flora balance and prevent the inflammation andautoimmune reactions from developing. I don't know why this wasdiscontinued, but it should be resurrected, as it is necessary whentaking antibiotics.If you have some type of inflammation, which you probably do if youhave taken any antibiotics in your life, you must detoxify the body.That is the best place to start. Natural products like cod liver oil,all-natural vitamin E, coral calcium, and systemic enzymes can helpto reduce inflammation. Olive leaf extract, colloidal silver,acidulous, royal jelly, and mushroom extracts are examples ofproducts that may be a better first choice than antibiotics. When ourbodies are toxic the immune system becomes the garbage collectionsystem. Saunas and hot baths help to eliminate toxins that overwhelmthe body's immune system. This is a natural way to boost your immunesystem by freeing it up to do what it does best. The bottom line isthis - you need to stay away from antibiotics.On the front page of the San Diego Union Tribune, August 13, 2005,the headline reads "Rules Tightened to Buy/Use, Acne Drug Acutane."Acutane is an antibiotic. It is now proven that it has causedhundreds of miscarriages and birth defects each year. This drug wasprescribed like candy and now the evidence is so overwhelming thatnew restrictions are being put on its use. What is outrageous is thefact that this, like all drugs, was "proven scientifically" to besafe and effective. It was approved by the FDA, which means all thescientific studies "proved" that this was safe and effective. Well,guess what. Now we find out that it is categorically not safe,killing people, and absolutely not effective. How surprising. As Imentioned over and over again, the scientific studies are false,misleading and untrue. The FDA says that drugs are safe and effectivewhen they are not. The drug companies try to convince us that naturalremedies are ineffective and unsafe, and that drugs are safe andeffective. This is categorically not true; the exact opposite istrue. All drugs, specifically antibiotics, are ineffective andunsafe. They are all dangerous. All non-prescription and prescriptiondrugs are deadly. They are dangerous; they cause disease.There are facts about drugs that are being hidden from you. The drugcompanies do not want you to know the truth about how deadly thedrugs are. A friend of mine owns a company that just won the NobelPrize for medicine. The secret meetings that go on in the medicalcommunity are beyond your comprehension. This Nobel Prize winner hasthe technology, which shows that virtually every single non-prescription and prescription drug is totally ineffective and unsafe.He won the Nobel Prize for this technology. I know the truth, thedrug companies know the truth, and I'm blowing the whistle andtelling you the truth. They don't want you know the truth so they aretrying to attack me. Folks, please open your eyes to what is true.All non-prescription and prescription drugs are ineffective andunsafe. Drug companies do not want you well; they only want to sellyou more drugs. Remember, all drug companies are publicly tradedcompanies and they only want to sell you more drugs. Remember,remember, remember - all drug companies only want to sell you drugs;they do not want you to be healthy. If every person was healthy,nobody would take any drugs and all the drug companies would be outof business and bankrupt. Remember that fact. Stay away fromantibiotics, and stay away from all non-prescription and prescriptiondrugs.
