Our bodies were designed to deal with foreign bacteria. When your immune system overcomes an infection it emerges stronger. It produces more natural antibodies that are better able to deal with future inroads on your health.
Here is what happens when antibiotics are given at the first sign of infection. All very serious.
1. It suppressed your own immune system. Your body creates fewer natural antibiotics. This makes your white blood cells less active in attacking bacteria that have been treated with antibiotics.
This explains why many minor infections appear to happen over and over, thus requiring more and more treatment. A vicious cycle.
2. When bacteria are exposed over and over to antibiotics they begin to mutate. This causes them to become immune to the drug's effect. Since we cannot stop this mutation it is responsible for thousands of lives yearly.
You have all know people who went into the hospital for one condition, but during their stay, developed a near-fatal or fatal case of drug-resistant pneumonia.
3. We all have beneficial bacteria that lives in our intestinal tract. In a healthy intestinal tract, millions of beneficial organisms help form vitamins, and enzymes, they kill cancer-causing compounds, regulate cholesterol and hormone levels and keep in check the overgrowth of disease-producing bacteria and fungi.
Some of the most common are, eczema, decreased mental abilities, depression, recurrent vaginal or bladder infections, candida, hyperactivity, constipation, lupus, RA and even cancer. Also, parasitic infections, fatigue, food allergies.
