RE: Germs, Super Germs and Antibiotic Resistance

in #health7 years ago

Thank you for sharing. I can attest a time in my life where my eating habits were not as healthy as they should have been and I ended up getting sick a lot. I was never the kind of person to get sick either. I found that due to all of the dairy I was consuming (there are traces of antibiotics in the animal and animal byproducts) AND the enhanced amount of stress I was under at the time contributed to me being ill. I was put on antibiotics throughout that year and my immune system never recovered. I decided to change my diet and became a vegetarian who gave up all dairy except eggs. I noticed a HUGE difference and my body healed with more whole and less processed foods and no dairy. I realized how many antibiotics are prescribed even if it was not determined to be a bacterial or viral illness...if used too liberally we do tend to see these drugs less effective and mutate to become resistant. What we eat truly can help or hinder our health.
