[…]these antibiotics to make the chickens bigger quick then get passed on to humans and make us more antibiotic resistance. Sadly people die from antibiotic resistant infections all the time – all for the sake of growing chickens faster for the greedy industry – from the article on selfish chicken companies: “We don’t have all the answers,” said Christine Daugherty, head of sustainable food production at Tyson, in a statement. “But we want to make sure that antibiotics continue to work.” The concern is that the use of antibiotics to treat sick chickens is making the medicine less effective in […]
[…]high chicken meat resistance rates, suggesting that the federal government has failed to combat antibiotic resistance from factory farming.” 1 He went on to say, “The Federal Government has a special responsibility not only for the health of its own population, but also beyond Germany, and in the past year alone almost one million tonnes of chicken meat were exported. The poultry meat industry is also exporting antibiotic resistance and related health risks, not least to countries with very weak health systems.” (He gets it.) RELATED STORY: Do not buy chicken with this brand on the label According to the WHO, every […]
[…]a chelator; which draws out the vital nutrients of any living thing it touches. It is a patented antibiotic; destroying gut bacteria, where 70% of the immune system lies, and the body’s ability to create Tryptophan/Serotonin, and Melatonin, which regulate insulin/diabetes and protect from sleeplessness, depression, bipolar and violent behavior. It is a proven endocrine disruptor; which impacts, deforms or halts the development of a fetus, leading to miscarriage, birth defects, infertilityand sterility. It is also a cell disintegrator; breaking down the blood brain barrier and allowing toxins into the brain, (correlating the rise of autism with the increased use of […]
[…]the scientific journal Peer J, chronic wounds are becoming a major global health problem, due to antibiotic resistance issues. They are costly and difficult to treat, and bacterial biofilms are important contributors to the delay in healing. There is an urgent need for new, effective agents in topical wound care, and honey has shown some great potential in this regard. RELATED ARTICLE: Honey Out-Performs Antibiotics in Fighting Superbugs For their study, researchers reviewed Manuka honey in particular as an alternative treatment for wounds because of its broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and the inability of bacteria to develop resistance to it. Their study indicated […]
[…]scientists found that the remaining bacteria was actually made stronger. The proportion of antibiotic-resistant bacteria was found to have doubled as a result of the treatment. “Initially, 0.3 percent of E. coli carried a gene for resistance, whereas 0.6 percent did after treatment,” wrote Allison Bond for Reuters. The effects of this on humans is still not fully known however, microbiologist John Scott Meschke from the University of Washington in Seattle has stated that current water purification techniques are adequate for making water safe enough to drink, but that may not be the case. *Article originally appeared at Organic & […]
[…]effective at tightening your midsection and reducing your waist size. In fact, combining resistance training with aerobic exercise seems to be the most effective for slimming your waistline. Bottom Line: Resistance training may prevent the loss of muscle mass often seen with dieting, which may help maintain your metabolic rate and reduce your waist circumference. 9. Do Exercises Standing Instead of Sitting Performing exercises while standing up may benefit your health more than performing the same exercises while sitting or using weight machines. By standing, you activate more muscles to maintain balance and hold up your weight. Therefore, you’ll spend […]
[…]sensitivity: Avoid or minimize sugar: High amounts of fructose and sucrose promote insulin resistance and raise insulin levels (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15). Reduce carbohydrates: A low-carb diet can cause an immediate drop in insulin levels (16, 17, 18, 19). Fill up on protein: Protein actually raises insulin in the short-term. However, it should lead to long-term reductions in insulin resistance by helping you lose belly fat (20, 21). Include plenty of healthy fats: Omega-3 fats found in fatty fish can help lower fasting insulin levels (22). Exercise regularly: Overweight women who walked briskly or jogged had an improvement […]
[…]here’s a small taste… “We’ve been hearing for some time that overusing antibiotics may lead to antibiotic-resistant hospital infections, something we may associate with the elderly and other immune-compromised people. But I gather the implications are much more immediate and individual than that. What’s the connection between microbes and the development of the immune system in childhood? When we’re born we do not have any microbes. Our immune system is underdeveloped. But as soon as microbes come into the picture, they kick-start our immune system to work properly. Without microbes our immune system can’t fight infections well. It’s not just […]
[…]the researchers wrote. Though the pigs weren’t given any carbapenem drugs (nor dosed with antibiotics to promote growth) they did get antibiotics: piglets on the farm received ceftiofur at birth males received a second dose at castration And this regular dosing might play a part in the development of mutant bacteria. In a genius move (excuse my sarcasm) Wittum remarked, “We may need to examine some of the practices of farms, and evaluate whether they are really appropriate, and whether the benefits outweigh the risks.” Agreed. Dr. David Wallinga of the Natural Resources Defense Council, who opposes the routine agricultural use […]
[…]make sure you save the tick so that it can be tested for presence of pathogenic organisms. Antibiotics Are NOT the Best Treatment Option While early treatment is critical to prevent complications, traditional treatment involving a course of antibiotics is often unsuccessful in preventing complications, including arthritis, cognitive deficits, heart rhythm irregularities or neurological symptoms. Antibiotics damage your gut microbiome and increase your risk of yeast and fungal infections. For these reasons, it is advisable to exhaust natural strategies to help your body fight Lyme disease. One example is the Nutramedix line of herbal antimicrobials, recommended by one of the most […]
