According to publications by Dr. Mercola, the biological properties of Manuka range from antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, antibiotic and wound healing, to immune system stimulant. However, what sets Manuka honey apart from the rest is that its antibacterial powers challenge even the strongest superbugs, such as the deadly methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
The report, published in the European Journal of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, stated that Manuka honey killed almost every bacteria and pathogen on which it was tested. Unlike all antibiotics available on the market today, none of the microbes proved able to survive the honey treatment.
According to Dr. Carter, there are no particular compounds, such as methylglyoxal in Manuka honey, that cause multisystem failure in the bacteria, killing them before they are able to adapt and create immunity.
Manuka honey has been shown to be effective in fighting E. coli bacteria, even when diluted to 3.3%. Unlike other “therapeutic” compounds that doctors might prescribe, bacteria have not yet developed resistance to Manuka honey.
On the other hand, turmeric is another natural miracle with a host of health benefits. Its most important compounds are called curcuminoids and have healing, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial and antifungal properties.
The combination of these two is the most powerful antibiotic we can use. It is also known as Golden Honey and has been commonly used for thousands of years.
According to Benefits Of Honey, this combination is “an invaluable natural remedy for a wide variety of ailments and illnesses such as indigestion, cold, flu, asthma, hypertension, high blood sugar, arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, depression and anxiety, inflammation of wounds and burns, eczema, psoriasis, acne, and aging.
A study has shown that an Ayurvedic medicine containing turmeric and honey as two of the active ingredients, stimulated the production and functionality of immune cells and could therefore improve immunity against diseases.
While black pepper may seem like an odd addition to the mix, its presence plays an important role. The addition of black pepper with turmeric increases the absorption of turmeric by 2000 percent when used in a 1:10 ratio of pepper to turmeric. Pretty amazing, right? Black pepper helps combat respiratory conditions and rejuvenate the lungs.
Finally, cinnamon gives the remedy a sweeter flavor and is packed with medicinal benefits. It is excellent for coughs, colds and nasal congestion as it helps clear mucus. It also relieves gastrointestinal pain, which is often part and parcel of winter bugs.
Are there any natural alternatives that will thin out the secretions in my cheeks nose and eyes so I don't get blotches and eye styes if I stop taking the antibiotic?
A very safe off label drug is low dose naltrexone, which many find helps autoimmune conditions and skin conditions. It is not an antibiotic but a parent molecule of hydroxychloroquine.
The first line of defense against infection and disease is to boost your own immune system with natural remedies. People need to boost their immune system with the gifts of Mother Nature.
The worst thing about prescription antibiotics is that in addition to creating an epidemic of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, they kill good intestinal bacteria and predispose to chronic and degenerative diseases, including colon cancer. This also happens when antibiotics are prescribed or for a viral infection such as the flu or C-19. Antibiotics contaminate the water and land we cultivate. Antibiotic contamination is of increasing concern, due to its implications for the development of antibiotic resistance and its potential ecotoxicity.
Before World War II, very few Americans suffered from cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, osteoporosis, food allergies, psoriasis, eczema, autism, or even fibromyalgia. There were no processed foods, no genetically modified organisms, no chemical pesticides, no toxic vaccines loaded with mercury and aluminum, no artificial sweeteners, and no fluoride in the tap. Water.
A mention of the time of indigenous medicine, when natural healers did wonders for the sick using natural remedies. And when people got sick, they took medications that had worked for millennia, not some lab-prepared chemicals that corrupt scientific journals swore would work. The Chinese and American Indians used such medicine and it worked.
1).--- Curcumin exhibited antibacterial activities against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. The antibacterial action of curcumin involves the disruption of the bacterial membrane, the inhibition of the production of bacterial virulence factors and the formation of biofilms, and the induction of oxidative stress. These characteristics also help to explain how curcumin acts as a broad-spectrum antibacterial adjuvant, which is evidenced by the markedly additive or synergistic effects with several types of conventional antibiotics or non-antibiotic compounds. In this review, we summarize the antibacterial properties, the underlying molecular mechanism of curcumin.
2.--Colloidal silver is even more effective than traditional antibiotics, and that is why big pharmaceutical companies have attacked it fiercely. The Egyptians, Romans and Greeks used silver more than a millennium ago for various diseases and to fight infections , and does not harm the liver or kidneys, as prescription antibiotics can do.
3).--In this study apple cider vinegar (ACV) may have powerful antimicrobial effects directly on resistant E. coli and MRSA. The mode of action appears to involve an alteration in the pathogenic physiology of the microbes. These in vitro results highlight the antimicrobial capacity of ACV. Therefore, this study prompts further clinical investigations into the effectiveness of treating patients infected with resistant bacterial infections with ACV supplements. ACV could form the central ingredient of a contemporary pharmacological antimicrobial against MRSA and rE. coli.
Garlic and onion extract standardized in organosulfur compounds is effective in the incidence of respiratory tract infections in elderly patients. which could be used prophylactically against the most common infectious respiratory diseases.
Unfortunately but I’m thankful for good fortune as well - I just spent 4 days in the hospital after catching a bug on a business trip. I’m so anti hospital that I only went after I was told I could have a stroke if not treated. Long story short - I went from potentially having bacterial meningitis to actually never being determined what virus I had- every test came back - undetected but my spinal tap was very abnormal. So- when bacterial meningitis was on the table they started the vancomycin drip immediately. Antibiotics have a place and I understand me being treated prophylactically. Now I’m taking the time to heal with vitamins and a good pre&probiotic, healthy nourishment, rest, meditation and my family who is an endless source of love and entertainment ☺️and really the best Dr! He kept an eye on everything- he doesn’t trust the hosp policies either- called the administration a bunch of commi’s lol. Hosp staff great just saying I live in a community where the hosp sold out patient care for Big Pharma $$$$$
We've found a mixture of honey, turmeric, ginger, and natural vanilla extract seems to do the job
