MORE ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EARLY ANTIBIOTICS AND ASTHMA

ANTIBIOTICS, INFANTS, AND ASTHMA

Antibiotics Children Astmma
BruceBlaus
"Antibiotic use in the first year life is associated with an increased risk of early-onset childhood asthma that began before 3 years of age. The apparent effect has a clear dose response. Heightened caution about avoiding unnecessary use of antibiotics in infants is warranted."  The conclusions of a study published in the March, 2014 issue of Annals of Allergy, Asthma, & Immunology (Consequences of Antibiotics and Infections in Infancy: Bugs, Drugs, and Wheezing).

"Overall, children given antibiotics in their first half-year were 2.6 times more likely to develop allergic asthma, the team told a meeting of the European Respiratory Society on Tuesday. With broad-spectrum antibiotics, which kill a wide range of bacteria, the risk was far higher: children were 8.9 times more likely to suffer from asthma."   From the October 1, 2003 "Biomedical Archives" of FuturePundit.com.  The study itself was done in the Henry Ford Hospital of Detroit, Michigan (they have 5 hospitals in their network).

In case you were not aware, the risk of ASTHMA goes up significantly when babies under a year old are given ANTIBIOTICS.    A few years ago (click the first links above), I reported to you that Antibiotics given to the very young, dramatically increased their chances of developing Asthma.  All you have to do is look at the quotes at the top of this page to realize that this was not new information, as the two studies were published over a decade apart.  In fact, if you get on your computer and Google "Antibiotics Cause Asthma", you'll get 1.2 million hits.  Yet the insanity continues virtually unabated (HERE), causing an even greater number of health problems than the uninitiated could possibly begin to fathom.  Allow me to explain.

Asthma is not the only consequence of prescribing infants antibiotics.  A quick review of the scientific literature tells us that Asthma is not the only thing that Infant Antibiotics are associated with.  Studies tell us that this class of drug is related to everything from ALLERGIES to OBESITY, to DIABETES, to IBS, to eczema and other AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES (including FIBROMYALGIA), to CHRONIC EAR INFECTIONS, to ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE, to SYSTEMIC YEAST / CANDIDA INFECTIONS, and on and on and on. These are just some of the many reasons that I have been telling my readers that Antibiotics are one of the single largest long-term health destroyers in America.

We do not really need more taxpayer-funded research telling us that ANTIBIOTICS DESTROY HEALTH and cause lifetime health-related problems.  We need educated parents and doctors who will stand up and say, "no; I am not giving little Junior an antibiotic.  That's not what he needs right now".  But the solution to this problem does not end with simply not killing off one's good bacteria with antibiotics.  One must actually expose themselves / their children to bacteria in order to be healthy (I have written about this previously HERE, HERE and HERE).  Let me share with you what the 2003 article from the top of the page said about this matter.
"This "hygiene hypothesis" has been gathering strength in recent years. The latest result certainly strengthens the argument considerably. The idea is basically reminiscent of the saying "idle hands are the devil's workshop". Remove the normal antigens that the immune system is exposed to and it starts reacting to things it ought not react to. Our ancestors lived in dirt floor dwellings and had much more exposure to animals, dirt, and nature in general. We live lives which bring us in much less exposure to the antigens we evolved to deal with. Exposure to those antigens appear to be necessary to instruct the immune system on what it should identify as a threat."
I would challenge all parents and grandparents to click on some of these links and learn why you do not want your children (or yourself) taking antibiotics.  Is it possible to actually live a life free of antibiotics?  My four children, ages 16 to 9 (HERE are some pics) have never been on antibiotics.  Yes, they have had all of the same childhood health issues yours have had.  But 999 times out of a thousand, antibiotics are not needed to get over these infections.  If we will simply nurture our God-given Immune Systems, we will realize that they are infinitely more powerful than a pill or shot.

Thank you for your website and helping us understand what is good for us and what isn´t.
My 2 year old toddler has had a very nasty cough for the last 15 days. He has bronchitis, got an inhaler and tons of drugs. He hasn't improved much. Yesterday he was given antibiotics. I don't want to give them to him, but his cough is really bad and it sounds like when i'm close to having an asthma attack. Should we continue to wait until the cough is gone? Or are the antibiotics needed in this case? How can we parents know when to give in to the antibiotics? And when to wait?

Thank you very much

This is a tough one Veronica --- particularly when you start to notice that Asthma is just the tip of the iceberg as far a problems related to antibiotics are concerned. This is impossible for me to answer as every case is different. Start by looking at my post, "How to Raise a Healthy Child in Spite of your Doctor."

...I came across your site , by Divine Intervention, I believe. ..; I was searching for WHY i have so much pain , in my right buttock ( and UNDER it ) ..lo and behold....what you have said makes sense. I was ALWAYS active...roller skating, walking, weight lifting. ..over the past three months, I am in SO much pain, even to walk and do normal activities. So I am grateful for all your information. THEN I saw a link to Asthma...I have mild adult asthma, did not have this until I was 46... I am now 60 years young.:) My youngest daughter, now 22, was born with asthma and I so appreciate all this information. I am AGAINST taking anti-biotics, always have been...but due to complications at birth, she developed asthma. I am loving all the information you so freely share, to educate/ help/ and add some prevention to ones health equation. Thank you, God bless.
