[…]quercetin, which gives onions antioxidant and anticancer properties. Furthermore, onions have antibiotic properties and may provide benefits for the cardiovascular system. Bottom Line: Onions are rich in inulin and FOS, which can help boost your immune system, provide fuel for your gut bacteria and improve digestion. 6. Leeks Leeks come from the same family as onions and garlic, and offer similar health benefits. Leeks contain up to 16% inulin fiber. Thanks to their inulin content, leeks promote healthy gut bacteria and help in the breakdown of fat. Leeks are also high in flavonoids, which support your body’s response to […]
[…]recent trip to rural Massachusetts. A mild fever soon followed, and Snyder asked a doctor for the antibiotic doxycycline, which can be used to treat Lyme disease. His symptoms cleared within a day. Subsequent tests confirmed his self-diagnosis. Snyder and his team have now demonstrated that smartwatches can be used to detect the first signs of illness. More than 40 volunteers wore the devices for up to two years, which continuously monitored their pulse and skin temperature. The team found the devices would record unusually high heart rates, and sometimes higher skin temperatures, up to three days before the volunteers […]

SUBWAY will begin serving some chicken raised without antibiotics in March 2016, committing to accomplish the same for all chicken in all of its stores by the end of 2016. Turkey raised without antibiotics will begin to be available that same year, with the transition to be completed within 2-3 years, followed by pork and beef within six years after that. Subway’s announcement marks one of the most substantial commitments on antibiotics from a U.S. fast food chain […]

[…]the U.S. government in a medical fraud settlement after admitting to overcharging for Bayer’s antibiotic Cipro. Bayer also settled tens of millions after having persisted in selling contaminated blood products to hemophiliacs. At present, Bayer is poised to close a “mega-deal” to merge with Monsanto, which manufactures the glyphosate-containing herbicide RoundUp—both glyphosate and RoundUp’s other ingredients have been shown to be highly toxic. The CDC has its own lengthy history of corruption and deceit and has routinely turned a blind eye to conflicts of interest while it works to “protect the private good.” Although the agency owns 56 patents applicable to vaccines, it has no problem shredding vaccine safety data it doesn’t like, while continuing to […]

But a brutal ban would pose an unsolvable problem for many farmers… I understand that perfectly. And I am on their side, including regarding their health. But on the pretext that it is complicated, should we continue to push the topic under the table? Will France therefore oppose renewal at European level? The answer is yes, because we have to make the fastest possible exit out of the most dangerous products. Without constraint, […]

While this is the first case, it certainly won’t be the last. At some point, when its too late, we will realize we should have stopped overusing antibiotics and instead developed new drugs that worked. Or perhaps thought outside the box and looked at oils like Oregano which are incredibly strong, natural antivirals/antibacterials. The CDC says each year in the United States, at least 2 million people become infected with other kinds of bacteria […]

[…]idea, a few small studies indicate that low-carb diets improve reflux symptoms. Additionally, an antibiotic treatment may significantly reduce acid reflux, possibly by decreasing the numbers of gas-producing bacteria. In one study, researchers gave participants with GERD prebiotic fiber supplements that promoted the growth of gas-producing bacteria. The participants’ reflux symptoms worsened as a result. Summary: Acid reflux might be caused by poor carb digestion and bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine. Low-carb diets appear to be an effective treatment, but further studies are needed. 4.

And, consumers with Celiac Disease should know that although Papa John’s has procedures in place to prevent contact with gluten, they are not ready to recommend the gluten-free crust to those customers, because the potential for contamination still exists. As I always say, it’s a small win, but a win nonetheless and we’ll take it. Source: […]

Drink plenty of fluids such as water and herbal teas. Be sure to avoid caffeine, as it can dehydrate your body, and remember to avoid sugar. Steams and nasal rinses can help reduce pain and increase drainage. Consider sleeping with your head elevated to help your sinuses drain and provide relief from sinus pain.

[…]a means of raising healthy chickens. Why are so many farmers looking for alternative solutions to antibiotics? For starters, antibiotics should not even be a necessity on an animal farm if the farmers do a good, clean job. The issue arises when animals are living in filthy conditions prone to infections and viruses and is also caused as a result of poor slaughterhouse cleaning. Farmers like Scott Sechler realize this and take care to ensure that their slaughterhouses are hosed down and thoroughly disinfected after each set of chickens are slaughtered. The oregano oil that he uses to keep his […]

That class of medications is mostly sold as generic but there are well-known brand names such as Bayer AG’s Cipro (generically called ciprofloxacin) and Johnson & Johnson’s Levaquin (or levofloxacin). Fluoroquinolones, which are commonly prescribed, have been on the market for about three decades.
