46: Herbal Antibiotics with Stephen Harrod Buhner

Showtime:  Tuesday, August 14th at 6pm PT / 9pm ET Bacterial infections are on the rise, and antibiotics are increasingly powerless to stop them.  These bacteria outsmart modern medicine as they become "superbugs."   in 1942, the world's entire supply of penicillin was approximately 64 pounds.  By 2009, it rose to 60 million pounds a year!  Half of the antibiotics in the US are used on LIVESTOCK so they can survive overcrowding (plus antibiotics fatten them up -- higher revenue).   Most people don't realize it, but these antibiotics never go away -- they end up in our water system and pollute our environment.   The good news is that there are extremely effective NATURAL antibacterial herbs that fight these superbug bacteria.  In this show, Dr. Lo interviews herbalist extraordinnaire Stephen Harrod Buhner and author of Herbal Antibiotics: Natural Alternatives For Treating Drug-Resistant Bacteria.  A show you don't want to miss!
