More than 70 years have passed since the emergence of synthetic antibiotic therapy. While providing valuable support in the fight against bacterial infection, health experts now recognize that the overuse of these antibiotics not only wipe out beneficial bacteria, but also have created new strains of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains. This booklet examines natural alternatives to antibiotics -- echinacea, goldenseal, paud'arco, and others -- and how they provide a safer and as effective option to synthetic drugs.
