Early Use of Antibiotics Promote Allergies

A declining exposure to infections early in life has been proposed to be one mechanism accounting for the increased prevalence of allergies. Certain studies have shown an inverse association between allergic disease and the exposure to infections such as tuberculosis, measles, and hepatitis A (what does this say about immunizations as well)

Coming in contact with these microbial pathogens helps mature the immune system. An allergy is sign of improperly working immune system. Taking antibiotics also kills the natural bacteria in you gastrointestinal system, which in turn, does not allow you to digest food properly, and then can cause certain allergies.

Chiropractic care can influence the immune system, by allowing the Nervous System to function properly by removing subluxation. Chiropractic care has shown through research and clinical trials to improve the function of the immune system. Look for the next issue for the study on Chiropractic care and HIV patients.
