Samenvatting:

We are running out of weapons in the war on germs. The era of the penicillin miracle is over. Through our indiscriminate use of antibiotics in hospitals, farms and daily life, humans have created 'superbugs' - tenacious and virulent bacteria that develop resistance to solitary antibiotic compounds at an alarming speed. Plant medicines, with their complex mix of multiple antibiotic compounds are remarkably effective against drug-resistant bacteria. Stepehn Buhner explains how antibiotic herbs such as aloe, garlic and grapefruit seed extract represent our best defence against bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, E.coli and Salmonella - and how their use will ensure that, in the future, antibiotic drugs will still be there when we really need them.
