The other day, a 17-year-old boy was brought to my office. He had a swollen jaw. I examined him and advised his father to take the boy to his family for antibiotics.
Well, the next day my father came back. The boy was diagnosed with MRSA (also known as Superbug-resistant antibiotics). My father wanted to know what ayurvedic procedures I could offer.
As you know, MRSA (pronounced Mursa in the States) has evolved, mutated, and adapted its DNA for extreme resistance to traditional therapies. According to medical microbiology, it can sustain a full dose of beta-lactam antibiotics, including penicillin, methicillin and cephalosporins.
As MRSA probably originated ...
The virus was discovered in 1961 in the UK, two years after we began using the antibiotic methicillin to treat S. aureus and other infectious bacteria. That is how it got its name, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus).
Since then this superbag has been furious. MRSA infections in the United States in 1999 reached 127,000 (according to the 2007 New Infectious Diseases report, publication of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). And this is only a count of infections that were treated in hospitals. Of these 127,000 infections, 11,000 died.
These numbers suggest that MRSA causes more deaths than AIDS.
By 2005, MRSA was associated with 18,650 deaths related to hospital stays, estimates the release of the Journal of the American Medical Association on October 17, 2007. Almost all of these deaths were from people with weakened immune systems.
MRSA was once labeled as infected hospital (HA-MRSA). Now, however, he appears in schools, gyms and kindergartens. It has been upgraded to community infection level (CA-MRSA).
17-year-old student battle with MRSA
Last October, a 17-year-old boy named Ashton Bonds from Virginia in Staunton River High School acquired an infection of staphylococcus MRSA according to CNN. On October 4, Ashton went to Bedford Memorial Hospital with a pain in his side. After they removed appendicitis, they sent him home.
Three days later he was again accepted. By this time, MRSA infection had spread to his kidneys, liver, lungs, and muscles around his heart.
Antibiotic treatment was useless. The doctors calmed him down and put a fan on him. They were ready to start the operation to try and deplete the infection from the lungs. Very sad, first a blood clot got to him.
21 schools in his district were immediately closed and thoroughly cleaned to prevent the spread of the disease.
Super-intellectuals super intelligent
As far as antibiotics have saved millions of people since their discovery, stories like this show that they are losing their power. You need to understand how intelligent bacteria are. They actually destroy the dead remains of other bacteria that died before the antibiotic. They see that they killed their brothers and mutated accordingly. Well, back to this boy and his father, who came to my clinic with a swollen jaw. As you can see, it is not surprising that they did not want to rely on conventional treatment.
Fortunately, there are many more tools to combat MRSA and other skin infections. Of course, these are natural procedures that cannot be patented and sold as medicine. If they cannot be sold as drugs, who can afford to pay the millions of dollars needed to get FDA approval?
Thanks for the natural rainforests of the Amazon and India
In these regions, traditional people have kept the production of herbal medicines flowing to us in the West. Marriage with organically grown plant medicines using ancient formulation methods provided us with a rich system for maintaining people's health.
These superbugs are Mother Earth telling us to keep ourselves healthy with what she gives us. Why rely on processed antibiotics? Destruction as the main means to rid the body of toxic bacteria does not work. This has been scientifically proven by the MRSA breakthrough in hospitals throughout the United States.
For a boy with a swollen jaw that I prescribed ...
Turmeric - 2 capsules with lunch and dinner. (According to a report from the University of Maryland Medical Center, turmeric volatile oil has been used as a natural antibiotic. It has been used to treat all skin types and respiratory infections for thousands of years.)
Buzzing - 1-2 capsules at night before bed. (Laboratory studies have shown that they have diminished or eliminated E. coli and upper respiratory infection, according to the Indian Journal of Pharmacology 2003.)
Tripala - 1-2 capsules at night before bedtime. (A study conducted at the University of Madras in 2006 showed that tripal inhibits the growth of common bacterial isolates in HIV-infected individuals).
Superbooks vs Superman
We talk a lot about superbooks, as if they are more dangerous to us than other bacteria. They are very strong in the fight against antibiotics. They do not necessarily threaten our immune system anymore. According to Ayurveda, this is really a question of how strong your body tissue is. Just pay attention to the news: People who die from MRSA are usually older people or people suffering from a weakened immune system.
In fact, in a healthy body, many microbiologists believe that bacteria will mutate to become beneficial to their host. This may explain why children who grow up with a pet to the first age rarely suffer from asthma or other allergies (more on this in a future room).
The problem lies in the ability of your body to release toxins. If your cells are overloaded with toxins, your immune system will not work properly. Infections occur. In Ayurveda, we learn that toxemia is the main cause of all diseases. Most toxins come from the colon. Antibiotics do nothing to clear toxic waste from your blood and intestines.
