Conventional antibiotics make users sicker in the long run
Doctors carelessly prescribe antibiotics for viral infections, which is
useless since antibiotics are only effective for breaking up bacterial
infections. To make matters worse, overprescription and overconsumption
make future infections harder to fight, since antibiotics deplete the
good bacteria in the gut.
In this medical travesty, antibiotic-resistant bacteria are rising up, adapting to the singular mode of action that the prescription antibiotics lean on. The CDC has recently identified 20 resistant strains of bacteria, thanks to reckless dependency on these prescriptions. A 2013 report by the CDC sounds the alarm, reporting that over 2 million people contract antibiotic-resistant infections each year. Conventional antibiotics are making users sicker in the long run, more vulnerable and more prone to infection.
As this disturbing trend continues, scientists are looking for simpler answers. Researchers from the Salve Regina University in Newport, Rode Island, are rediscovering the reasons why raw honey is still one of the best natural antibiotics around to this day.
