Antibiotics aren’t just losing their effectiveness, but now, according to a study done in Canada, penicillin, even in low doses, may encourage an aggressive attitude as well as long-term changes in behavior in kids.
Research has already concluded that the broad-spectrum type of antibiotics used by adults may affect their attitude.
This Canadian study is the first one to prove that even a smaller antibiotic amount may trigger attitude changes in the young population.
Antibiotics Are Everywhere & Your Gut Doesn’t Want Them
Unfortunately, antibiotics seem to be present everywhere, including in some vaccines.
In fact, in these studies, it’s noted that there isn’t a baby in North America who hasn’t gotten an antibiotic course in their first year of life.
If moms are transferring the effects of these medications to their unborn kids or the kids during birth, it opens up a lot of other questions about the long-term impact of antibiotics on society.
What’s more, antibiotics can damage your gut balance and contribute to psychological issues that include antisocial and aggressive attitudes, as well as PTSD, and reduced brain cell growth.
This is because our GI plays a role in neurotransmitter production. These chemical messengers help regulate our mood.
So, when we wreak havoc in our digestive system, we disrupt the free flow of messages from and in the brain. The dysbiosis in the microbiome contributes to a leaky gut which has been linked with behavioral issues.
We Need a Healthier Alternative to Antibiotics
Considering the information about antibiotics and their effect on our physical and mental health, it’s essential to research effective alternatives.
Silver is a great option. It’s a natural antibiotic that is much gentler. It existed before penicillin and today, it’s increasingly popular, especially after the increase of data proving antibiotic resistance.
Silver has been proven effective for both humans and cats and dogs.
There are two types of silver, that is, nano and colloidal.
This has to do with the size of the particles suspended in a pure deionized water solution. Nanotech has advanced in the last years and the reduction of silver particles has been brought to 2 nanometers in diameter.
The small size of the nanoparticles elevates the total surface of the silver and creates an advantage of 40 to 1 in potency when you compare it to the colloidal solution.
A higher concentration of nanosilver has been found superior to colloidal products in entering pathogens, cells, and biofilms in the body.
Moreover, there’s also a difference in silver percentage in the ionic vs metallic form. The metallic particles can survive the hydrochloric acid in the belly and this optimizes the effectiveness of silver particles in the blood.
In the best-case scenario, colloidal silver solutions may have from 5 to 10 percent of metallic particles. The other percentage is ionic form particles.
Ionic silver transforms into silver chloride in the stomach and it’s valueless when it goes into the blood. Nanosilver has a high level of metallic particles and thus, has better solubility than colloidal silver and it’s considered more effective.
