There is currently an over-prescribing by the modern healthcare industry of today’s antibiotics which is rendering them increasingly less effective. Contributing to this trend is the use of antibiotics in factory-farm livestock.
When he received his Nobel Prize for medicine in 1945, Alexander Fleming, the pioneer of penicillin, the first synthetic antibiotic, said, “It is not difficult to make microbes resistant to penicillin in the laboratory by exposing them to concentrations not sufficient to kill them.” He continued by saying, “There is the danger that the ignorant man may easily underdose himself and by exposing his microbes to non-lethal quantities of the drug make them resistant.”
Bacter is a part of life and it has been throughout history. When we take antibiotics persistently, we kill the “good” bacteria, which gives rise to more resistent “superbugs”. In the event that you need to kill a superbug, below are 10 herbs and foods that can cure the issue:
Honey: A recent study from Salve Regina University showed that raw honey is a top natural antibiotic. In her findings, Dr. Susan M. Meschewitz told the 247th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, “The unique property of honey lies in its ability to fight infection on multiple levels, making it more difficult for bacteria to develop resistance.” The honey fights as an antibiotic using polyphenols, hydrogen peroxide and an osmotic effect. The fact is that honey has many different characteristics which make it a powerful cure for superbugs.
Colloidal Silver: Author Gregory A Gore writes in his book, Defeat Cancer:
Silver was used 1,200 years ago by Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, sailors, and then by the pioneers who populated our country. They used it for various illnesses and to keep their foods and liquids from spoiling. Prior to 1938, before antibiotics, colloidal silver was used by doctors as their main substance to fight bacteria in a more natural way than through the antibiotics they use today. Antibiotics can harm our kidneys and liver functions. Colloidal silver promotes healing.
Pascalite: A type of clay, this bentonite can be found in the Wyoming mountains and contains amazing healing power. Topically, it acts as a disinfectant for wounds in as quickly as hours or days. Pascalite’s first uses were documented in the 1930s during the era of Emile Pascal, a trapper living by a lake in the mountains. He would use it on his hands which he noticed significantly moisturized their chapped tendency. He expanded his use of Pascalite to burns and other infections.

Tea tree oil: This is a potent oil known to effective with killing MRSA on the skin which has been resistant to antibiotics. When using tea tree oil for this treatment, it must be therapeutic-grade and undiluted.
Olive leaf extract: Has been employed for centuries to fight bacterial infections. These days, olive leaf extract is used with MRSA infections in formal European hospital because it boosts the immune system while it fights antibiotic-resistant infections.
