[AlternativeAnswers] Dr Bate's Weekly Newsletter - 2/25 - Super Bug MRSA

*MRSA - Superbugs
*

I got interested in MRSA, the "super bug" germ and went thru a ton of
articles about it. It seems that a huge percentage of humans actually
carry it on the skin. This spreads it to other people, and if this
bacteria get into a scratch or wound of any kind, it can be fatal.

Now, since I know that plain old vitamin C (in any form) kills bacteria in
the blood stream, and I also know that colloidal silver (CS) kills bacteria
on the skin and in wounds, why wouldn't a combination of these two
antibiotics work to save death from this "superbug?

I found it very strange in over 100 articles, I found NONE mentioning
either Vitamin C or CS. I know that all MD"S are trained to only use Big
Pharma's products - antibiotics made from yeast/fungus sources. But, there
have to be a few "quacks" (like me) who" think outside the box. (Did you
know that every person who discovers an important new advance in medicine
has been called a quack - From Semmelweiss to Pasteur, and even Jonas
Salk. I'm in good company).

Just what is MRSA? It's been called a virus, but it's a mutated bacteria.
A bacteria can exist without food for a long time, a virus can only exist
by feeding on infection. The "overuse" of antibiotics in medicine is
thought to be the cause of the mutation of ordinary bacteria into
"superbugs" that can resist many, or most, of the Big Pharma antibiotics.

Now, since vitamin C only kills bacteria in the bloodstream, and MRSA seems
to live on the skin, only infecting when it gets to an "open" wound, it
would seem logical to use both. To prevent this bacteria from infecting
cells inside the skin, keep the Vitamin C reasonably high in the blood.

For the skin infection, cover with a gauze covering, and soak that in
Colloidal Silver every few hours.

I just recently learned about another MRSA (and other super bug skin
infection) cure. It's a special type of honey, called Manuka Honey, and it
comes from New Zealand. I found that Amazon sells it Google that name,
and it's fascinating. I have no personal experience with it as I have had
with Colloidal Silver and vitamin C, and the source of my information tells
me that any "natural" honey has much the same effect as an antiseptic. I
was told that simply smearing it directly onto a wound works. Also see Dr
Mercola below for more on This "super bug" fighter. that MD's don't seem to
know (or care) about.

*Anaphylactic (Highly allergic)? Volunteers Wanted to Test Probable Cure?*

Last year, I tested the Special NT CD on different and varied "severe"
mental disorders with volunteers. I didn't get any anaphylactic persons in
that test, yet, the Special NT CD does solve allergy problems, and if it
can prevent death in people sensitive enough to bee stings, peanuts, etc.,
I need data to prove that. If you, or someone you know is in this
category, please have them email me for details of this test. From what
I've seen so far, this should stop such needless deaths positively. I am
looking, in particular for those persons who either do, or should carry an
epi pen at all times. If you know of such, please forward this info to
them. Email at "drbate@bellsouth.net"

For the Cymbalta it was more of a head/mind dependency, for the Oxycontin it's more of a body dependency. Ironically, the pain that I originally started taking it for, is now longer bothering me. Now I have what they call hyperalgesia which feels like a full body ache like when you are getting the flu. The pain receptors in my brain are now totally screwed up. My husband heard Deepak Chopra talk on CNN and said that detoxing from drugs (prescription or otherwise) takes in steps.. 3 days (the worst), then 3 months (transition) and then 3 years for complete healing.
