Antibiotics can cause the total destruction of your instestinal (and vaginal) flora. It creates chaos in your body. And if it relieves you from the problems it's been taken for, it creates more disturbing ones in the process, such as the weakening of your immune system.
The natural treatment that I've tried and that have worked very well for my son, my family and myself is cloves.
And with good reasons, cloves aren't just good to get rid of mouth microbes, they can also be chewed and swallowed to get rid of intestinal microbes (bacteries, viruses...), but this aspect is almost completely ignored.
The active substance in cloves, if we don't want to chew them, is eugenol (clove oil). Of all the other essential oils used against microbes, eugenol is the one from which we need the lesser amount to be effective. But we can also mix eugenol with tea tree oil, thyme oil, peppermint oil and lavander oil, to mention only the most efficient ones.
Personally, I only chew three cloves in the morning and three more in the evening to say "goodbye" to a gastroenteritis in only one or two days. The above-mentioned oil mixture is also efficient against undesirable insects such as bed bugs.
