Our body is infinitely complex. It functions so well that no man-made gadgets can imitate. God (or evolution) has given us a body whose complexity is beyond our intellect to fathom. It has a unique immune system variously described over time as yin-yang balance or homeostasis, which involves microbes, in and around us, living in harmony with us in a symbiotic existence. It has helped us survive all sorts of deadly diseases over millions of years, until only decades to a century ago. Then, antibiotics, followed by more synthetic drugs, started to drastically weaken our immune system by destroying a key part of our microbiome. Together with our body’s subsequent loss of its self-healing abilities, this has led to its ready susceptibility to mental stress and various infections and illnesses. The toxic drugs cause side effects that in turn lead to new diseases requiring more drugs to treat, hence the vicious cycle.
This is my brief history of the current state of drug treatment in layman terms. The only way to avoid being dragged into this vicious cycle is to bypass it with natural therapeutics, should we need them. #immunity #viciouscycle #yinyangbalance #homeostasis #antibiotics #drugs #toxic #microbiome
