The 'snake pit' of Antibiotics.

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com Friends, Sometimes I feel so ignorant, as if I landed on some other world or planet that supports life of some kind.... duh! 2 months ago a doctor from my local VAMC - ER PRESCRIBED some anti-biotics for me, for 26 days, which I took to help me with a concern. And today I just came across the following news about the toxicity of these old time antibiotic remedies, that they are very poisonous to the LIVER !! No wonder they only prescribe them for a short time. I have heard that places/ countries like Germany use more Herbal remedies and have much success. I have been reading and studying Herbs ever since I got home from RVN [Vietnam in 1970] because I didn't trust doctors... and I still do research on any drugs that they want to give me. Yes, I we still have a right to COA [cover our anatomy!]. I know enough that Chemo-therapy and antibiotics kill not only the 'bad flora' in the gut and intestines, but also the GOOD BACTERIA! Plus they are dangerous and highly toxic! But I just found something that will help.....thesedrugs-- but think about them more and do a little reading before you jump into a snake pit. Any comments? Warm Regards, Tom Schuckman Please see below an important message from our friend Dr. Keith Scott-Mumby. He has some important information to share with you. To your best health, Advanced Bionutritionals Modern antibiotics are not just failing big time; they are DANGEROUS. Antibiotics can be lethal in their own right. Did you know that antibiotics are the most common cause of death from acute liver failure? (acute means sudden and unforeseen; as opposed to "chronic", which everyone can see coming). The truth, is statistics show that antibiotics are the single largest class of drugs that cause fatal liver damage. Yes, antibiotics were the most common cause of death due to liver injury (45%). The next group, nervous system agents, were only 1/3rd as common (15%). That puts antibiotics way out on their own as deadly drugs. Chief offenders are macrolides (erythromycin type), penicillins, clavulanic acid (Augmentin), tetracycline, and more. I'm constantly amazed when I hear of colleagues prescribing erythromycin as a first line medicine for a sore throat. Don't they know how toxic this stuff is It had a bad reputation when I was in med school in the 1960s. Doesn't anybody pay attention? If it's to be used at all, it's in a life-threatening situation where penicillin’s and safer drugs have failed. The bottom line is nobody should be thinking "antibiotics". We should be thinking of "alternatives". And here's the joke: there are 1,000s of viable alternatives. Hundreds of them work as well as antibiotics. The Golden Age of Antibiotics is over. Bacteria have won the war, hands down, and that's the truth. We're all out of ammunition! The cupboard is bare. Well, not quite. There are, as I said, hundreds of healthy, safe and EFFECTIVE alternative modalities of treatment.
