Guest guest Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 I never, never take antibiotics. Even when I had pneumonia. It upsets your whole system. It makes fungus worse. Be very, very careful buying into the whole allopathic medical thing. Talk to a Naturopath or a Wholistic Doctor before you take these antibiotics that upset your whole body's natural balance.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Dr Kolb is adamant about the use of antibiotics before any dental work if you are implanted They should be used. julie Re: [saline Support] Dear Ladies --I also read that antibiotics should be taken for women who are "implant-impaired" (my little joke for today) before any dental/oral surgery (crowns, root canals, etc).

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Well, I absolutely did not use any antibiotics with the extensive dental work I have had. And I will never do so. Many allopathic doctors are adamant about the use of antibiotics, but many Natural practitioners totally disagree. So, you have two sides. And antibiotics make fungal problems much worse. So, I choose to avoid antibiotics. Others may choose to use them.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 I'm just curious .. does Dr. Mercola go along with the antibiotic-dental thing? I know my sister has mytrial valve prolapse and she always takes them before dental work. I do think it is important but I wonder if one would do just as well with grapefruit seed extract for maybe a week before. That way you wouldn't be disturbing the good bacteria. Just curious.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Anita, I don’t think so, he is against the use of them, only as absolute necessary. I can envision him saying, he would remove the implants if there was a risk of infection prior to dental work.
