Antibiotics can permanently destroy gut flora balance, leading to lifelong illness

[Guest guest]

And how do we know we are replacing what needs to be replaced. It

seems to me that only a few things are replaced with probiotics.

Terrifying. My father died of esophageal cancer. I had far

more antibiotics than he did

Antibiotics can permanently destroy gut flora balance, leading to

Overuse and overprescription of antibiotic drugs has become a widely

known culprit in causing the emergence of antibiotic-resistant

" superbugs, " as well as the onset of digestive and other health

problems, caused by the elimination of beneficial gut flora. But a new

review published in the journal Nature suggests that such gut flora

alterations could be permanent....

Synopsis:

http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2011/08/killing-beneficial-bacteria/

" Among the findings he cites in support: The population-level

observation that the incidence of infection with H. pylori, the bacterial

cause of gastric ulcers, has declined over decades just as the incidence

of esophageal cancer has risen. In addition, he offers his own research

group’s observation that children who don’t acquire H. pylori are at

greater risk of developing allergy and asthma, and their findings that

eradicating H. pylori affects the production of the two hormones, ghrelin

and leptin, that play a role in weight gain. "

Have you ever heard of a fecal transplant? Very interesting.

They are helping many with C. diff. And could move on to other gut infections.

It is scary. They create these " things " GMO, antibiotics, etc with no concern

on how it will affect us or the earth, just their pocketbooks!!

They are only doing fecal transplants on adults. The UOM has what they call the "perfect" donor speciman. It is freeze dried and only used on the toughest adult C. Diff cases. My son has chronic yeast and clostridia problems from antibiotics and has caused him to have chronic GI problems. They won't release the sample for my son's Dr. to do a fecal transplant. Maybe one day they will......From: kdhrtd <kdhrtd@...>To:

I would love to have my daughter try it. No luck here either. I have called many doctors etc.What a shame it is taking so long.If I remember correctly, there was one person interested if my daughter had C Diff. She doesn't. I can't for the life of me figure out who it was or I would tell you.Maybe, you could keep calling around.You found a doctor willing to do it? That is amazing.There is a place in Australia that does it. Maybe, they would be willing to send a healthy sample to your doc. Again, I can't remember the name of the clinic!! :0((Maybe, you could google, fecal transplant in Australia.correyOn Oct 18, 2011, at 11:35 PM, Cameron wrote:
