This the new classification of these medications of fluoroquinolones, they work in a whole different mechanism, they actually affect the bacterial DNA.[2:21] The DNA of the bacteria is its blue print the new mechanism directly attacks this bacterium and destroys the whole thing.  Mitochondria [2:37] Mitochondria is the power house of the cell, it does a lot of intercellular communication. [5:05] Within one single cell, one single nerve cell, you have one nucleus with all your human DNA. And then within that one cell you have anywhere between 15 to 2000 mitochondria.  Fluoroquinolones Toxicity[5:43] It goes after the DNA and affects DNA replication. [7:00] When you take these antibiotics, it completely destroys your mitochondria because it gets in the mitochondria. And then it sees all it sees all this DNA replication.  It's not going to produce energy optimally; it's not going to die. Effect[7:57] This is why you go to the doctor and you can have all these weird symptoms, neurological symptoms, Achilles tendon problems, brain fog, brain fatigue, fatigue, depersonalization, all these things can occur to you. Because it actually affects every single cell in your body that has mitochondria and within the mitochondria.
