There are many situations in history where the overall acceptance of one false concept has lead to unimaginable and completely disastrous results.
For example, for over 20 years The American Medical Association (and many other "healthy" associations) have used various tactics to encourage people to stay out of the sun and to utilize sunblock, when exposing themselves to the sun.
Research over the last 10 years proves conclusively that our skin produces vitamin D when exposed to sunlight and that vitamin D is a primary component of our immune system that fights cancer, MS, fibromyalgia and depression. It appears that without raw unprocessed sunlight (sunlight without block) that the body breaks down very quickly.
Conventional sunblock ingredients have also been found to be carcinogenic. So the very disease that these health professionals were trying to avoid, actually increased based on the idea that they somehow got it right and mother nature somehow got it wrong. When you think that all living things rely on sunlight to live (in one way or another) it is odd that we blindly accepted such illogical advice in the first place. Here is a short clip on the benefits of vitamin D.....that means the benefits of raw sunlight.
(This doctor appears very friendly and I am sure he means very well but it is the medical profession that started this problem in the first place)
The use of antibiotics falls under a similar umbrella. (wrong/illogical advise, disastrous results) Here is a list of the documented side effects regarding antibiotic use. There are huge and long lasting side effects that patients are never informed of.
CLICK HERE TO SEE THE BASIC LIST OF DANGERS THAT COMES WITH ANTIBIOTIC USE.
The mass use of antibiotics is solely based on the germ theory placed forward by Louis Pasteur. Louis Pasteur proposed the germ theory of disease early in his career while one of his peers, Antoine Beauchamp, proposed that disease actually hatches from inside the body because of the body's terrain.
Although Antoine Beauchamp's theory was never disproved and even though Louis Pasteur eventually started seeing the merits of Beauchamp's theory, we as a society have completely embraced the idea that germs are the enemy and that they should be destroyed or kept at bay at all costs.
This is just another example of one concept moving forward, facilitating disastrous results. Like the sun example (avoiding the sun is now proven to increase cancer) the use of antibiotics only increases the potential for infections and weakens the immune system. The suprising news is that something much more catastrophic is now being hypothesized.
Think about the two theories (Beauchamp's vs. Pasteur) like this. If we had a very fertile field, full of grass, we may eventually find cows grazing there. Think of the cattle as being bacteria. Pasteur first theorized that the bacteria (the cows) were the enemy and that they should be destroyed yet Beauchamp theorized that the cows were attracted to the grass so if you destroyed what cows were first there, more would eventually come to replace them. If the cows were really a problem, one simply must remove what is attracting them (the grass) and the problem is solved.
Beauchamp understood that bacteria and infections do not just happen randomly. There is order in disease and disease only occurs under certain conditions. Unhealthy people get sick for concrete reasons, not chance happenings. Talk about a leap of faith for many North Americans.......that they are actually the ones making themselves sick.
Modern medicine continually deals with bacteria, viruses and fungi by trying to kill these organisms when in actuality there is much proof that the patient's bad dietary habits actually lays down the perfect environment for these foreign invaders to grow and prosper. ( infections from car accidents, war wounds etc are not the same as why millions of North Americans are taking antibiotics every year)
Some even go as far as saying that the infection is a reflection of the body's own defense systems working. What medicine titles as "disease" is simply a description of the body attempting to protect itself. If this is true, antibiotics would completely disengage our own defense mechanisms allowing the bacteria to theoretically sneak behind enemy lines to cause more disease down the road.
Beauchamp was also aware that bacteria, fungi, yeasts and cancers were all part of the decomposition side of life. All designed to decompose dead and dying material and that is why disease always infected life forms that no longer could support life independently.
These organisms were nature's clean up crew and you could not stop them as much as you could not stop death itself. Dead things must die, you cannot get around that. Patients simply needed to stay healthy and prove they were worthy of life and the decomposition based organisms would always stay away as long as possible.
It was a law of nature that worked as systematically as the law of gravity. It applied to all people, at all times and in all situations. Treat your body badly and you will pay the ultimate price. If one wants to drive away dangerous microbes all you need to do is create an environment they do not like by eating good food and living in tune with nature's laws. If you look like a good snack, these dangerous microbes will always return.
That discussion does not even come close to laying down the biggest argument against antibiotics. The largest argument against using drugs that kill bacteria is that scientists are now discovering that we, as humans, are ourselves 90% bacteria. This is not only shocking to the general public, it has caught many scientists completely off guard.
CLICK HERE FOR THAT STORY.
Life itself is no longer being looked at as a survival of the fittest scenario but is being re-examined as being completely attributed to team work. Similar to a sports team or a large corporation, our bodies are now being looked at as a cooperative effort between trillions and trillions of different cells. A large group of workers entering into an agreement for one common goal. We are collectives of cells, working together as a team and when one cell gets sick....the whole unit suffers.
Being that humans are now seen as 90% bacteria, taking antibiotics (drugs that kill bacteria) may endanger up to 90% of things living along side us in our own bodies. Those bacteria are also being discovered to be the very things that keep us alive and healthy. Antibiotic use may pose much greater risks that anyone first suspected.
Just another minor mistake brought to you by the North American medical system. It may be time to ask your doctor if getting off drugs, eating healthy, getting in the sun and living in harmony with nature is right for you.
