Defenseless Immune Systems Are Becoming Very Common
June 10, 2019 Puzzle Piece
Studies show the misuse of antibiotics has created nightmare bacteria and a defenseless immune system.
When we get sick, we want to get un-sick as fast as possible.
Sometimes we resort to drastic measures in hopes of turning our health
around. Sometimes these measures make things worse in the long run,
including the creation of nightmare bacteria.
These antibiotic resistant bacteria are becoming virtually untreatable and becoming impervious to most antibiotics.
“Inappropriate overuse of antibiotics is and has been a major
factor,” said Dr. Lance Price, who directs the Antibiotic Resistance
Action Center at George Washington University. This includes giving
patients prescription antibiotics for viral infections.” [Bacteria are
responsive to antibiotics, but viruses are not, as they do not have cell
walls. 90% of bacteria have either gram positive or gram negative cell
walls, that are responsive to antibiotics, if they have not been
programmed otherwise by overuse and misuse of medications.]
“Maybe it’s in our human DNA to take on the kill-all approach when
it comes to our fight for survival. Antibiotics work, in a sense (when
appropriately prescribed and taken correctly). The problem is that they
indiscriminately kill all forms of bacteria they encounter, both good
and bad. [We have more non-human cells than human cells in our body and
many promote good health and wellness, including good bacteria.]
The bacteria in our gut function as our second immune system. If
you get an infection and treat it with antibiotics, you wipe out both
the infection, if it is bacterial, which respond to antibiotics and your
secondary immune system. Losing your natural gut bacteria makes you
prone to getting sick again. The most extreme version of this scenario
is when a person takes a huge dose of antibiotics called azithromycin,
better known at the Z-Pak.
Side effects of this product include upset stomach, diarrhea,
nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Hopefully you are starting to see
the connection between your gut and your overall health? Less likely but
serious side effects include hearing changes, eye problems, difficulty
speaking/swallowing, muscle weakness, and signs of liver problems.
Research has also uncovered that azithromycin can trigger a
potentially deadly irregular heart rhythm for some. In 2013, the FDA
said, “The pills can cause abnormal changes in the heart’s electrical
activity that may lead to a fatal heart rhythm. Not everyone is at
risk.”
THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
Your immune system defends you from millions of bacteria,
microbes, toxins, and parasites on a daily basis. In most cases, we’re
completely oblivious to its subtle, intricate work until we get sick or
experience unpleasant side effects, like vomiting or allergic reactions,
or more severe reactions, like asthma or diabetes.
Your immune system includes your skin, saliva, tonsils, adenoids,
lymphatic system, bone marrow, spleen, stomach acid, and digestive
system, from the mouth to the anus. These all work in concert to keep
you healthy. However, there are a lot of things you we do to weaken it.
ARE YOU DESTROYING YOUR OWN IMMUNE SYSTEM?
- The following habits take a toll on your health:
- Chronic stress
- Excess consumption of sugary foods
- Excess consumption of processed foods
- Excess consumption of alcohol
- Not getting enough sleep
- Significantly overweight
- Not getting enough exercise
- Taking antibiotics or antihistamines
- Poor hygiene
- Smoking
- Frequently dehydrated
KNOW THE SIGNS OF A WEAKENED IMMUNE SYSTEM
- Fatigue
- Mild fever
- Headaches
- Rashes
- Joint aches
- Frequent illness
- Patchy hair loss
- Skin problems
- Unexplained weight change
- Auto Immune conditions
- Yellowing of skin or eyes
All these habits take a toll on immune function. One reason is
because of all the nutrients they burn through to maintain equilibrium.
These stressors compromise the Hypothalamus, Pituitary and the Adrenals (OHS Opti-Adrenal; also test for Opti-Thyroid and Opti-Iodine) When this system is compromised, it puts stress and malfunction at the forefront throughout the entire body and physiology.
Stress has a habit of depleting B vitamins (Opti-Methyl-B)
and the essential minerals manganese, magnesium, and potassium, which
can lead to cognition problems and a weakened immune system (Opti-Brain and Opti-Immune VRL).
Eating and drinking the wrong things, along with poor health
habits destroys your gut flora, the good bacteria coming to your
defense. Just like your body, your gut flora needs the right nutrients
to thrive. Bad bacteria thrive on sugar and other junk food.
Not getting enough sleep affects you all the way to the cellular
level, making your immune system sluggish. Even a modest disturbance of
sleep produces a reduction of natural immune responses and T cell
cytokine production.
Hygiene is tricky because you can both overdo and under-do it. If
you protect yourself in a sterile environment, your immune system can’t
exercise, but if you don’t help it by brushing your teeth, flossing,
eating fresh fruits and vegetables, etc., it can get overwhelmed.
Hydration creates a cascade of health problems when you’re
dehydrated. Water is used to flush out toxins, waste, and even harmful
invaders. Since hydration, energy levels, and even the ability to sleep
go together, they all work for better or worse in creating health or
dis-ease. That is why we teach the “Six Steps to Wellness”. We put together the Puzzle Piece to Health by balancing: Structure, Nutrition, Emotions, Electromagnetics, Allergies/Sensitivities and Detoxification.
YOUR ARMY OF RESEARCH-PROVEN INGREDIENTS
Instead of the kill-all antibiotic approach, the OHS Natural Z-Pak
formula provides a blend of colostrum, echinacea, beta glucan, DDS-1
lactobacillus, acidophilus, and enzymes that act as antimicrobials.
These nutrients assist the body in its defense against viruses, fungus,
and pathogenic bacteria.
Since viral infections take a different approach than bacteria, it
takes a different blend of nutrients. Ingredients like L-Lysine,
predigested glandulars, green tea, elderberry, olive leaf, garlic, and
echinacea have been proven to help fight off viruses and bacteria,
providing a natural yet powerful, holistic boost to your body’s
defenses.
One of the best nutrients you can provide your body during times of illness (and preferably every day) is vitamin D (Optimal Longevi-D K2).
Hundreds of studies back its efficacy when it comes to overall and
immune health. However, we haven’t isolated vitamin D because it works
best when paired with vitamin K2 and CoQ10. They work together to get
nutrients to the right places and this pack provides them in whole food
form.
Since your body is stressed from illness and you’re feeling
stressed, your cortisol levels are probably elevated. If you stay
stressed for too long, your immune function takes a dip. Predigested
ashwagandha, bacopa monnieri, panax ginseng, organic magnesium, zinc,
selenium, chromium, turmeric and more have been proven to reduce
cortisol levels caused by stress, help boost energy levels, and help
your body and mind bounce back.
When we talk to both doctors and patients about health, we always
like to make sure the basics are covered. This Pak includes 24 essential
whole food vitamins and patented organic minerals to get you on the
path to healing.
HABITS THAT STRENGTHEN YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
- Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, and consume probiotics
- Take time to unwind
- Moderate (or eliminate) alcohol consumption
- Laugh more
- Spend more time out in the sun
- Get at least 8 hours of quality sleep each night
- Get exercise (at least a 20-minute walk per day)
- Minimize prescription use
- Quit smoking
- Drink plenty of water
THE HEALTHY CHOICE
So, when you get sick, you have a choice between a kill-all
approach, or an immune-boosting approach. Your choice is to work
against how your body functions, or aid the natural course of Health and
Healing. Both the drug and whole food herb ingredients in the natural
Z-Pack, and all OHS formulations are research-proven. Make sure you have
a natural Z-Pak in your medicine cabinet to “naturally” be ready.
The Optimal Natural Z-Pak
loads your bowels up with over 21 billion CFU of flora, including our
patented acid stabilized probiotics. This guarantees any bad bacteria
that made it past your stomach are seriously outnumbered. With the
microbial battle in the good guys’ favor, your army of friendly flora
can wipe out what’s making you sick.
In addition to all that friendly flora, we have combined over 50
nutrients in carefully calculated amounts, so they synergistically work
together and give your immune system a massive boost.
This puzzle piece is just a taste of what you can learn from Doug
Grant, founder and CEO of Optimal Health Systems, Dr Marc Harris, Dr
Brett and Dr John Brimhall, etc. at Homecoming this next year. It is
just around the corner, scheduled for January 17-19, 2020.
