Nutritional Healing for Mrsa

The use of antibiotics to fight disease and bacteria has led to the development of "superbugs," or viruses that are immune to antibiotics. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a kind of staph infection that has increasingly grown resistant to antibiotics. Below are a list of nutritional treatments that have proven effective against many strains of MRSA.

  1. Natural Antibiotics

    • Colloidal silver was used centuries before antibiotics were manufactured in labs. These tiny particles of silver are held in suspension by liquid and are generally made available in creams and liquids. Colloidal silver is known to kill bacteria, including MRSA, and is non-toxic. Olive leaf extract has also been used to cure MRSA. The natural components of calcium elenolate and elenol acid have been proven affective against bacteria and fungi.

    Garlic, Manuka Honey and Essential Oils

    • Garlic and other herbs can be processed into a powder and liquid form and can effectively combat certain strains of MRSA. Honey has also proven affective, with manuka honey having the most therapeutic benefits. There are also many kinds of essential oils available. Make sure that you buy only the highest grade essential oils that are used for therapeutic purposes. These oils, when used effectively and properly, have been among the more potent MRSA cures.

    Healthy Immune System

    • One of the most overlooked but crucial forms of protection against MRSA and for fighting the bacteria is a healthy immune system. Make sure to eat a proper diet filled with the right amount of fruits, grains and vegetables, focusing on immune boosting foods. Make sure to take probiotics, as they are effective in helping to balance the chemical contents of your stomach and your overall health. Also, drink plenty of water and exercise regularly. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle will aid in your fighting off bacteria and speeding your recovery.
