First Antibiotic-Resistant Gonorrhea Cases Detected in North America
US News ^ | 08 Jan 2013 | Jason Koebler

Posted on 01/15/2013 3:34:14 AM PST by TArcher

The fears of major health organizations have come true: Gonorrhea that is immune to the last remaining effective oral antibiotic has been detected in at least nine North American patients, meaning the era of "incurable" gonorrhea could be close.

Too many men seem to think because they like both girls and boys they're not fags. YES YOU ARE!

I like the way you think.

The best way to protect against this is to live a normal non-promiscuous lifestyle.

Let's us two hit it.

Thanks again for taking the time to pass on the valuable information.

I have lots of allergies, including food allergies, and have become interested in vitamins and supplements as an adjunct to traditional medicine and to compensate for certain food allergies.

Your problem might be related to, of all things, your intestinal flora. Some studies now indicate that allergies may in many cases be the result of insufficiently diverse gut flora in children.

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/12/111208114853.htm

But this opens up a big can of “unknowns”. It involves several things. In this study, it involves a phylum of bacteria (a phylum is just one order lower than the kingdom of all bacteria), called the Proteobacteria. So we’re talking a huge group.)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proteobacteria

However, it has also been discovered that a genus subset of these bacteria (four orders lower, a much smaller group), called enterobacter, may stimulate the body to gain weight as well as force an immune response.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterobacter

In any event, it would probably help your overall health, if not specifically your allergies, though it might, for you to spend about a month (because it takes that long), to change the character of your gut flora.

The gut contains between 300-1000 different kinds of bacteria. But of these, only 30-40 take up almost all the space, so are most important. A with about a month of dietary changes, you can probably make your flora a much healthier blend of bacteria.

And this may go a long way into normalizing your immune system.

The way to do this is to significantly reduce the sugars you eat, because they are a prime food for “bad” bacteria, and start consuming “probiotics”, which are live culture yoghurt, acidophalus milk, live culture cheeses, or my favorite, a drink called Kefir.

Now sold in stores, Kefir has around 10 different strains of healthy bacteria, and tastes like a yoghurt smoothie.

Again, it takes about a month of consuming these to result in changes to your intestinal flora. Because of the threat of antibiotic resistant bacteria, some people now consume probiotics in between times when they are taking antibiotics. Approved by their doctor of course.

You’re font of useful information and great links! I have downloaded and copied into word docs to re-read and mull over. There’s a lot to absorb.

I’m allergic to milk and milk products (since I was an infant). Although finding probiotics without milk is a challenge, I started taking them routinely ‘just in case’. I figured it couldn’t hurt and like many I was given lots of anti-biotics as a young child. In fact, my GP recommends probiotics when taking antibiotics; timing between antibiotic doses to maximize benefit.

Thanks for the sugar tip; although much better than I used to be, that’s something to work on.

On bad allergy days I remind myself that I don’t get the flu, and that I’ve seem recent research about IG-E lowering cancer rates.

And thanks again for all the information.

That was the one thing I was curious about. However, other people are also lactose intolerant yet want probiotics. Here are some things that might help:

Soy Kefir
Probiotic Soy Milk

Probiotic Juices - For vegans or people with allergies to milk products, fruit or vegetable juices fortified with probiotic microorganisms offer an alternative to probiotic dairy beverages. Lactobacillus bacteria cultured in oatmeal or other non-dairy media have been added to fruit juices to provide this beneficial microbe to consumers who can’t tolerate milk or yogurt.

Probiotic juices are sometimes blended with kombucha, a probiotic Asian tea. Very little research has been done on the probiotic properties of kombucha.

This has turned out to be a very interesting dialog.

I can’t do soy, but can do some juices and oatmeal so I will check them out. I will also check out kombucha tea.

The probiotics I have taken are:

Tablets by Schiff

Capsules by Twinlab
When I looked up the link for Twinlab I discovered why I have been having trouble fining it in stores; the formulation has changed. Still milk free.

(Twinlab also has a dry formulation for D and A & D for those who have problems with soy oil and fish oil )
