5 Things you need to know about MRSA and Staph treatment

Most doctors are doing the best job they can. And for serious infections, being under the care of a good doctor is critical, regardless of what treatments you choose to use.

But there are 5 critical things your doctor probably won’t tell you about your healthcare, antibiotics, and your Staph or MRSA treatment...

1. You’re getting the standard protocol treatments, NOT what’s best for you
Doctors are forced by insurance companies to cut costs by prescribing generic “one-size-fits-all” treatments. It’s easier for your doctor to give you a broad-spectrum antibiotic, even though they are useless against MRSA.

Many general physicians are inexperienced with MRSA and therefore misdiagnosis is common (especially as spider bites). Most doctors don’t know the first thing about natural medicine because they are never taught about it in medical school.

You need to know the pitfalls of the healthcare system and learn how to avoid time-wasting mistakes. You should also know what questions to ask your doctor to get the best medical care for Staph and MRSA.

2. Your infection will probably come back again later
Recurring infection is the # 1 problem people have with MRSA and Staph. And most doctors admit they don't know how to prevent recurring infections.

It's no wonder recurring infections are so common. The same drugs used for Staph and MRSA treatment can beat down your body’s natural defenses and leave the door wide open for future infections.

If you want to stop the cycle of recurring infection, you have to understand the underlying causes of your infection and how to strengthen your body’s natural defenses.

3. Antibiotics are risky drugs with negative side effects
If you choose to take antibiotics, you need to know the truth about how dangerous they can be. The risks of taking some antibiotics (especially clindamycin, sulfonamides and fluoroquinolones) are more greater than you may realize. Antibiotics cause nearly 20% of all emergency room visits due to drug reactions. If you take antibiotics, you need to learn techniques to counteract the negative side effects of these powerful drugs.

Antibiotics weaken your immune system, putting you at risk of future Staph and MRSA infections. And antibiotics commonly cause secondary yeast, viral and bacterial infections. If you use antibiotics, you better learn how to rebuild your immune system to keep your infection from coming back.

Antibiotics can cause stealth bacteria to grow in your body. Many antibiotics, including Vancomycin, can cause Staph and MRSA to mutate into L-form “stealth bacteria”. L-forms can hide inside your body for years, waiting for the right opportunity to cause re-infections later. There are techniques you can use to reduce this little-known risk.

4. Washing your hands and other cleaning methods may be doing you more harm than good
New studies show that antibacterial soaps and products cause you more harm than good. And Chlorhexidine products and bleach baths may help reduce skin colonization for a while, but they can leave you more prone to future infections. And hand washing, bathing and disinfecting your home will NOT kill MRSA bacteria in the air you breathe.

You need to learn how to control airborne bacteria and keep your home clean using methods that are both effective and safe.

5. Foods you’re eating right now are making your infection grow worse
Eating certain foods is strongly linked to the growth of infections. And some foods, herbs and other natural products not only fight infection, they also boost your body’s natural defenses. If you want to get rid of Staph and MRSA for good, you need to avoid harmful foods and discover which foods can help you ward off future infections.
