Watching on 4cnrs about how we are becoming resistance to them with the use of antibiotics......sad for people who need antibiotics a lot.

 Hi Barina, it was a very interesting program; the bit on over the counter sales in India rather scary!

Sadly it is the medical profession itself that writes the scripts for patients who "demand" anti biotics for virus's when it is for bacteria infections  and the same health professionals not following the standards required in hospitals to prevent cross infection by simply not washing hands between patients.

 Hi Ozi2

True about some medicos, my doctor rarley gives them to me and sometimes I don't fill the script if I feel an improvement.  I would be lucky to have 1 dose a year.  I used to tell him I don't need antibiotics, I eat a fair amount of chicken.....

Antibiotics and chicken - did you know that there is a theory that the reason a lot of young girls now have larger breast sizes is the consumption of chicken and other goods that are modified.

 yes I have heard that also....scarey what is in our food.  I try to have mostly fresh food and hardly any processed stuff.  I see many full trolleys of packaged and processed food and apart from the cost it must be so unhealthy, to have all the time.
