The Painkiller Mistake You’re Making That Fuels Superbugs

Excellent advice from Dr. Mercola. As Dr. Mercola has reported, chronic inflammation is a hallmark of virtually all diseases, including cancer, obesity, and heart disease. Leafy greens, limiting lectin content, especially for people with autoimmune diseases, berries and mushrooms, and omega-3 fatty acids are potent anti-inflammatory foods. Spices like ginger and turmeric are also beneficial.
Traditionally fermented foods optimize gut flora. Examples include kefir, yogurt, natto, kimchi, miso, tempeh, pickles, sauerkraut, and other fermented vegetables, which also have an anti-inflammatory effect. Fasting and calorie restriction are also helpful.
Ginger also has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant, and anticancer properties that protect against both acute and chronic diseases. The National Library of Medicine has the following to say about ginger:
"The exact mechanism is not fully understood, but several active compounds in ginger have been shown to have biological activity.
• Gingerol and related compounds: antioxidant activity, antitumor activity through induction of apoptosis and modulation of gene activity, anti-inflammatory and anti-analgesic activity, antimicrobial activity, and hepatoprotective activity.
• Paradol: Antioxidant, anticancer, and antimicrobial properties.
• Shogaol: Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activity through inhibition of cell invasion, reduction of matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression, and antiproliferative activity.
• Zingerone: Antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
• 1-Dehydro-10-gingerdione: Regulation of inflammatory genes.
• Terpenoids: Induction of apoptosis through activation of p53.
• Ginger flavonoids: Antioxidant activity.
... Ginger has been shown to play a vital role as an agent Antimicrobial. Several active components have been shown to be effective against E. coli, Salmonella typhi, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, M. avium, and M. tuberculosis.
Ginger is a source of numerous antioxidants and plays a role in reducing lipid oxidation and ROS formation. Studies have demonstrated the ability of active compounds in ginger root to scavenge superoxide anions and hydroxyl radicals and inhibit lipid peroxidation.
The potential benefits of CoQ10 supplementation for reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, common underlying factors in many painful conditions, are highlighted. For pain management, typical CoQ10 dosages range from 100 to 300 mg daily, taken with food to enhance absorption, as CoQ10 is fat-soluble.

Before the Planned Demic Legacy Media had been reporting on the rise of Superbugs, Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria's. How the microbes we need for health get wiped out, yet those to cause dis-ease were super mutators. That Big Pharma no longer wanted to pursue Antibiotics because, basically, they work - IF Used Properly and with Discretion. Big Pharma did not want to pursue something that could, would work when used properly because they would not be the Ca$h Cow Pill Mill Treadmill take them until you drop.
Antibiotics has long been a shield to hide so many "treatments' that only manage symptoms and given after we have already been damaged, and do little to nothing to 'cure.' The word cure is usually only carefully used when pursuing the Public Treasury to finance research.
Bad enough overused by people who demand there use when not appropriate, or when a doctor figures if I don't prescribe another doctor will anyway, tons of antibiotics are given to factory farmed livestock because they are rose in unhealthy conditions and increase weight and profits at our expense and health. Basically eating dis-eased livestock causing and fueling our majority of our population suffering chronic dis-eases.
But, get your head straight...profits, profits, profits...Power and Control are the baseline for what is sold as "Efficient." Besides, there are too many of the Great Unwashed anyway.
