(Natural News) Bacteria have quickly evolved at the genetic level to resist modern antibiotics. Since modern antibiotics destroy both bad and good bacteria, the overly treated, sterilized microbiome of the individual becomes seriously depleted of microbial life, stimulating bacteria to quickly adapt to survive. Scientists now confirm that bacteria have developed resistance to last-line antibiotics such as carbapenem, colistin, and other polymyxins. Scientists are now observing antibiotic resistance occurring through the mcr-1 gene of bacteria plasmids — a grave concern due to quick transfer-ability of the new gene.

As modern antibiotics continue to fail and encourage genetically evolved superbugs, it’s imperative that individuals seek out and utilize the antimicrobial compounds found in nature. These natural antibacterial compounds are scientifically proven to eliminate pathogens of all varieties. These antimicrobial compounds have existed alongside infectious bacteria since the beginning and have controlled them, without spurring wild resistance.

Here is a brief rundown of some of the natural molecules that exhibit antimicrobial properties and how they are able to conquer pathogens.

Garlic

The principle constituent of garlic, allicin, displays antimicrobial activity against infectious bacteria. At the Gondar University Teaching Hospital School of Medical Laboratory Technology, agar dilution preparation of garlic (33.75 mg/ml) controlled strains of Staphylococcus aureus ATTC 25923, Escherichia coli ATTCC 25922, S. aureus, E. coli, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Clinical evidence continues to confirm garlic as a potent antibacterial.

Raw honey

The properties of raw honey vary from region to region, due to the differing type of wildflowers that bees tap. This complex spectrum of plant nectars contains a wide variety of natural antibacterial compounds as well as flavonoids from the various plants and herbs. One of the most powerful antimicrobials in raw honey is hemolymph, a peptide that is secreted by the hypopharyngeal gland of worker bees. Along with carbohydrate-metabolizing enzymes and bee defensin-1, hemolyph provides protection against microbial activity. As the honey is diluted, honeybees also produce antibacterial hydrogen peroxide through their glucose oxidase enzyme. Manuka honey also contains the compound methylglyoxal, which has strong antibacterial properties…...More Here
