The End of Antibiotics and the Rise of Iodine as an Effective Alternative

This may seem too obscure to be of specific interest to some folks but i believe it offers useful responses as well as possible preventives to serious infections.

For sometime, i have been following the caMSRA developments in general science type journals and aswell the SF Chronicle which has had a long series of articles over the last six months.
The best advised usually offered is: wash your hands frequently and stay out of the hospital.
We'll they can't state that right out... but if you are health compromised and in the hospital...beware! is my conclusion. So treating your self and at home is looking like a real smart option at this time.... and again..that's to me!
I'm not saying we are... again at the point where people go to the hospital just to die.
This is just real scary stuff, and reading about is... close enough!

Recently, I sent info on...possible... preventatives for the antibiotic (drug resistant strains) bacteria and especially the topical and nasal forms.
MSRA is recurring in medical facilities, care centers and prisons. And some forms of TB are also just about immune to conventional treatment. South Africa has along with HIV/AIDS a serious drug resistant TB 'situation'.
So the netty pot for preventive nasal flushing and maybe Friar's Balsam as and actual treatment could be considered.
In Asia some physician are using the flushing method for the sinuses area. This info is from a senior nurse who worked in Asia for forty years.

But for me the Iodine solution and ..selected.. forms of magnesium and bicarbonate of soda as well as a couple forms of clay as possible treatment is 'news to me'. Though i am familiar with all of these for other problems. But directing their application to Rx drug resistant infection is more than interesting.

As i have mentioned before ...some... forms of magnesium have proven to be beneficial for everything from heart arrhythmia to serious depression.
And about as close as most folks get to magnesium is the oxide form which really is just a purgative with very little nutrient's or other medicinal effect.

the attached article maybe to long for some of us.. But unfortunately the entree seems to be served last.

As to the iodine, it is sometimes taken to support the thyroid though kelp tablets would seem to me to be a more acceptable approach.
But if you need to use iodine for infections determine first what the dosage might be and dilution is a must if it's going to be ingested.
We are talking how many drops in a large glass of water? For the thyroid as i recall, a person would take one drop.... once a day in a glass of water.

And yes, it is time to start putting a home medicinal packet together. As we are headed for a rough road ahead and maybe with out any handy rest stops along the way
