Alternative Antibiotics

[crosscanadian]

My kids are at home sick today with Strep Throat. That got me thinking, what if we were in a bug out situation and somebody came down with something that they needed antibiotics to treat? Are there any substitutes for antibiotics?

All About Homoeopathy you always wanted to know...

I've been reading about Homoeopathic medicine for awhile now. IMO antibiotics are nowadays WAY over prescribed by doctors and if taken for every little sickness you will build up a tolerance to them and your body will not learn how to fight off simple illness.

I agree with that. Not every little infection needs an antibiotic.

You might want to do some research on Colloidal Silver.

During the Y2K "event", I did purchase some and have used it periodically. I did have a small abrasion that was not healing up. I used the neosporin and other such topicals but it was starting to worry me......thinking it was possibly Mersa(sp?), I used the colloidal silver and it healed right up. I do have an interesting little scar to remind me that it's always best to be proactive and not always depend on the doctors.

I just want to point out that homeopathy does not work. It has killed many people.

"Final Attack Has Started.
If it Succeeds, the Pandemic Will Follow"


Action Item
CODEX Action Alert

EPA CONSIDERING CALLING NANO SILVER A "PESTICIDE" - BAN IT UNLESS WE ACT BY JAN 20th


"Those 'internationalists' who want to see humanity culled by the 'inevitable' pandemic about which we at Natural Solutions Foundation have raised the alarm these past months cannot succeed so long as a general immune system support nutrient exists around which dangerous pathogens cannot mutate. So long as we have a nutritional defense to the pandemic UN and other authorities tell us will happen 'soon', we now doubt it will actually take place as quickly as forecast.

That protective nutrient is nano silver, in the presence of which none of the naturally deadly or even weaponized pathogens can survive. So it was to be expected that major attacks on silver would predate the actual start of the pandemic. Years ago the Food and Drug Administration, the FDA, forbade any health claims about silver (through our Health Freedom Action eAlerts we have, however, made millions of people aware of the protective benefits of silver). And now the Environmental "Protection" Agency, the EPA, weighs in with potentially devastating regulations of topical uses (see docket EPA-HQ-OPP-2008-0650).


Yes, that 'final' attack has started and if successful - if nutrient and topical silver are removed from the market - you can be sure the pandemic will soon follow."

Click here(CODEX Action Alert) to take action.

Now tell your entire circle of influence about this, email them this Health Freedom Action eAlert with a line or two of your own at the top asking them to take action and then forward it to their circle of influence to do the same, and so on. Time is short. The issue is enormous and the outcome of this campaign might mean the difference between life and death - a whole lot of death.

Sadly, when the Natural Solutions Foundation's Ralph Fucetola alerted a group of silver manufacturers, health freedom activists and silver advocates to this danger, of which they were previously unaware, they responded that there was no problem since only TOPICAL Nano Silver was under attack! We presume that they have never heard the homily of the camel's nose under the nomad's tent. We regard their comfort level as ill-advised, naive and, in fact, down right foolish.

We are taking on this Defense of Nano Silver Action and we know that you will want to help keep Nano Silver on the market both because of your right to have what every health products and strategies available to you that you choose (Freedom) and for the very pragmatic reason that Nano Silver could, literally, save your life (Health).

Nano Silver recently saved the lives of two Panamanian friends whose conventional medical care was not touching the serious infections from which they were so desperately ill.

We need to respond vigorously to this threat to our freedom and our lives. Taking this tool away from us makes us easier to control - or kill - with manufactured and natural dangers like drugs or the weaponized Avian Flu strain and Avian Flu vaccines, for example.

Are we strong enough to stop Big Pharma on this one? I believe so: we must mobilize your community of influence to do so, and mobilize it quickly!

+1000 to Monolith...

Topical silver is an excellent anti-infective and is well proven to be of benefit. 'Nano-silver' is colloidal silver with a new buzz name. Over 200 US environmental groups have petitioned the FDA to stop OTC silver products, as it has been showing up in waste water treatment plants and killing off the good bacteria that are part of the natural waste treatment process. I would hate to see this & would rather find a way to stop the shedding of silver down the drain. Note the same problem can develop in individual septic tanks.

Ingested silver has no proven clinical efficacy. Anecdotal suggests it does suggest good results for some, but since there are no controlled studies worth fly crap about it, no one really knows. 'I used it and got better' means less than nothing.

There are considerably more than 2 cases of silver intoxication in the literature. If you are going to take silver internally I suggest you be sure of what you are getting, use it for acute illness and not daily wellness, and discontinue if you experience digestive upset or other warning signs.

Maintaining a healthy body is your best defense against illness. Eatting plenty of fruits and vegetables (organic if pausable) with a limited amount of protien, add nuts, grains and dairy to round out your diet.

Stay off of the processed foods that are offered in grocery stores and restaraunts (as much as possible).

I use hot lemon and honey when I have a sore throat. I use a mixture of warm water and salt for a nasal rinse with a sinus infection. I use hot sauce in water to loosen up a head cold or mild head ach. If it is an advanced head cold (but not sinus infection) I rub a drop of peppermint oil in my palms and breath it into my sinus. Have a bath towl available (you'll need it). I use manzanita tea for the stomach flu. Epsem salts in a warm bath for sore musles.

I try to stay as nature as possible.

In the past when a family member didn't have any money, they took fish antibiotics. They worked just fine. I know, I know, lol....but..... Anyway, they come just like ours, in pill form. All kinds....
