The Danger of Antimicrobial Resistance

In 2016, 700,000 people died because the microbes making them sick were resistant to the antibiotics they were given as treatment. By 2050, this number is expected to rise to 10 million deaths every single year. Antibiotic resistance is set to become more deadly than cancer.

One major problem in combatting antibiotic resistance is that many people do not understand what antibiotic resistance really is. It has NOTHING to do with your body’s ability to fight bugs, and everything to do with the bugs turning into superbugs, resistant to the medicine that you are taking to fight them off. Antibiotics have been the same for 60 years, allowing many bugs to build resistance to a set number of chemicals. There are two other major causes of this problem: that many antibiotics are overprescribed – around 30% of all prescribed antibiotics have been deemed unnecessary by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and that we give livestock 85% of the antibiotics that we produce. The microbes develop resistance from this unnecessary overuse.

The World Health Organization has said that we will soon be entering a “post-antibiotic era.” Just last month, a woman in Nevada died from an infection that was resistant to all 26 antibiotics available. An estimated 1 in 7 infections treated in the United States are resistant to at least one type of antibiotic.

How can we solve this problem? There is a simple solution: neem. When used as a natural livestock feed, neem acts as an antibiotic, preventing infection while providing the nutrients that animals need to grow, naturally! To save those 10 million people every year, you need to start demanding a change to sustainable, neem-based agriculture, now!

    My blog looks weird when browsing from my iphone 4.

    I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to fix this issue.

    Hi there, I believe your website could possibly be having browser compatibility issues.
    Whenever I look at your web site in Safari, it
    looks fine but when opening in I.E., it’s got some overlapping issues.

    I merely wanted to provide you with a quick
    heads up! Other than that, great site!

    Thanks for the marvelous posting! I actually enjoyed reading
    it, you will be a great author. I will be sure to bookmark your blog and may come back down the
    road. I want to encourage you to definitely continue your great work, have a nice
    day!

  16. Have you ever thought about adding a little bit
    more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important
    and everything. Nevertheless think about if you added some great images or video
    clips to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this site could definitely be
    one of the best in its field. Fantastic blog!

  17. Its such as you learn my mind! You appear to understand a lot approximately
    this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you simply can do with a few % to power the message home a bit,
    but other than that, this is fantastic blog. An excellent read.
    I will definitely be back.
