Description

Strengthening Your Defences Against Emerging Infections The rise of emerging infections and antibiotic-resistant bacteria has left us facing a growing health crisis. Dr. Michael Schmidt proposes a new approach to medicine, focusing on building and balancing our immune system to prevent illness and foster faster recovery. By adopting a "human-microbe hybrid" strategy, we can raise our defenses while preserving the integrity of the microbial elements that live on and within us. Drawing on the latest research from several scientific fields, Dr. Schmidt presents a set of general recommendations that can be tailored to support health maintenance, prevent illness, and fight active infections. This approach offers a promising solution to the dwindling supply of new antibiotic drugs and the increasing prevalence of untreatable serious infections. By taking action to raise our defenses, we can take a proactive role in our health and wellbeing. This book provides a comprehensive guide to building and balancing our immune system, making it an essential resource for anyone looking to support their health and prevent illness.
