Natural Ways to Protect Yourself from Superbugs like E.coli

Nature has supplied us with many various plants and natural substances that are powerful anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agents. It may surprise you that some of these natural medicines fight superbugs better than any antibiotic.  Because they are natural they are more complex in structure, so the superbugs have a harder time adapting to these natural medicines than they do a simple chemically derived antibiotic.

A few of the many popular supplements and herbs to take when fighting super bacteria and viruses are:

* Garlic
* Olive leaf extract (a powerful anti-viral!)
* Onion
* Ginger
* Cayenne pepper
* Goldenseal (don't use long-term. Some people get hayfever and allergic reactions from this.)
* Echinacea angustifolia root (the strongest medicinal variety of echinacea)
* Cat's claw
* Shiitake mushroom
* Lomatium Dissectum (desert parsley)
* Lemon Balm
* Colloidal Silver

One of the best weapons in the fight against superbugs, like this new e.coli outbreak in Europe, is essential oils. True pure therapeutic or medicinal grade essential oils are the concentrated life essence and healing power of the plant. Essential oils are much stronger than an herb by itself. For instance, it takes sixty-six pounds of rosemary plant to make one pound of rosemary essential oil. You will need to consume a lot of rosemary to the healing power that is in only one or two drops of the essential oil.

Some of the best essential oils to use for protection against superbugs are:

Spice for Life- this powerful custom blend, made with pleasant smelling spices like cinnamon and clove, has been clinically proven to kill superbugs and e.coli in lab tests. It is a great broad spectrum oil that is anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal. Updated and blended to be more powerful than ever by Dana Clay Young, the man who formulated the original Thieves Oil blend. It can be taken internally as well (in tea or in a carrier oil filled vegi-cap.)

Oregano & Thyme- Used together or separately, they are both powerful anti-bacterial and anti-viral oils. (Warning: be careful with these oils. If you are using true pure oils they should never be applied directly on the skin or they can burn you. Always apply them diluted with a carrier oil like almond or grapeseed oil.)

Coriander and Dill- Research from Canada showed that these two oils used together were very effective against bacteria.

Lemon- Simple lemon oil is a powerful antibacterial oil. Put a drop or two in a small spray bottle with filtered water, and use it instead of anti-bacterial jells to be sure you are not spreading superbugs, which ordinary anti-bacterail jells and washes do! (Actually, for great results, you can do this with one or several of any of these oils I mention here as well.)

Eucalyptus- another great essential oil that is antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial. It helps support your immune system. This is a good oil to diffuse in your home or office to help keep you healthy.

Tea Tree- this is a very gentle, safe and effective oil that has proven anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and has anti-viral properties. It can be applied directly on sensitive tissues without irritation.

Di-gest- This is another custom blend, and the first one I'd reach for when fighting any intestinal and/or stomach problem. It has knocked out every case of food poisoning and stomach flu that I or my family have ever had. I'd also add spice for life if I was worried about the super-e.coli bug, just to give it an extra powerful punch.

The only essential oils I use and recommend are Be Young essential oils, because almost all essential oils are diluted or made with poor quality ingredients. Absolutely the best essential oils I have found come from Be Young, which you can find at the link below. They are the only essential oils that are E.O.B.B.D. certified, so you know they are pure, organic or wild crafted, and the highest quality you can get.
