[QUOTE="Alan, post: 1048806, member: 378"] Very intelligent answer sim-ang :tiphat: Yes there has always been a build up to anti-biotics. When penicillin was developed it was the wonder drug because there was little or no resistance to it. But now, lets say, my mother has a reacurring bladder infection (I know TMI) she has been on amoxicillin pills, 500mgs for two years. The infection keeps coming back so her doctor keeps bumping the dosage, it works for a while but the infection keeps coming back. That's a building up a of resistance to anti-biotics. The doctor switches the type of anti-biotic and in a short time the infection is gone. That's why when we are given a prescription for anti-biotics it's for basically a two week period and come back in to look check things. So "in therory" the more anti-biotics your system gets, through beef or many other food sources, it weakens your resistance to anti-biotics. While I believe there is truth to it, it is also used as a sales point. Alan Again, nice comment, well thought out. Alan [/QUOTE]
