Antibiotic resistance serious global threat to public health: WHO
Zee Media Bureau
Geneva: The World Health Organisation (WHO) has warned in
its new report that resistance to antibiotics poses a serious global
threat to public health.
WHO's new report (its first to globally look at
antimicrobial resistance, including antibiotic resistance) reveals that
this grave threat is no longer a prediction for the future but is
happening right now in every region of the world and has the potential
to affect anyone, of any age, in any country.
It depicted “post-antibiotic era”, where people die from simple infections that have been treatable for decades.
“Without urgent, coordinated action by many stakeholders,
the world is headed for a post-antibiotic era, in which common
infections and minor injuries which have been treatable for decades can
once again kill,” says Keiji Fukuda, WHO's assistant director-general
for health security.
“Effective antibiotics have been one of the pillars
allowing us to live longer, live healthier, and benefit from modern
medicine. Unless we take significant actions to improve efforts to
prevent infections and also change how we produce, prescribe and use
antibiotics, the world will lose more and more of these global public
health goods and the implications will be devastating,” he added.
The report focuses on seven different bacteria responsible for common, serious diseases such as bloodstream infections (sepsis), diarrhoea, pneumonia, urinary tract infections and gonorrhoea.
The results are worrisome as the so-called "last-resort"
antibiotics no longer work in more than half of people being treated in
countries.
While bacteria naturally mutate to eventually become immune
to antibiotics, the misuse of these drugs - such as doctors
over-prescribing them and patients failing to finish courses has
worsened the crisis.
Urging public to take simple precautions such as washing
hands to prevent bacteria from spreading in the first place, WHO's
report called for better access to clean water, infection control in
healthcare facilities, and vaccination - to reduce the need for
antibiotics.
WHO is also calling attention to the need to develop new
diagnostics, antibiotics and other tools to allow healthcare
professionals to stay ahead of emerging resistance.
This report is kick-starting a global effort led by WHO to address drug resistance.
This will involve the development of tools and standards
and improved collaboration around the world to track drug resistance,
measure its health and economic impacts, and design targeted solutions.
Antibiotics are medicines that either kill or inhibit the
growth of a bacteria, but they cannot cure everything. Different types
of antibiotics are there and each works a little differently, acting on
different types of bacteria.
With Agency Inputs
This is what we by CORNWELL TANZANIA have been warning and teaching about for more than the last 6 years.
We by CORNWELL TANZANIA are only using natural antibiotics and natureopatic remedies which work different to syntetic antibiotics. No resistance are build up against the remedies we are using, compare to syntetic antibiotics which mainly reduce or weaken the immune system; our remedies help to build a stronger and more resistant immunesystem.
It is impossible for any pathogen to build up resistance to our natureopatic remedies because this is not targeting a specific pathogen, antibiotics or antiviral resistant strains are just as effectively attached and killed off because they are not protected by superoxidase Dismutase.

COLLOIDAL SILVER IN 20PPM
Silver
inhibits the grown of bacteria by deactivating the bacteria`s oxygen
metabolism enzymes. In turn, this destroys the bacteria`s cell
membranes, stopping the replication of the bacteria`s DNA.
Source – Accupoll Precision Research, April 2003 Beiersdort, Inc”.
Minerals,
especially trace minerals, are more important for the body than
vitamins, because without minerals, vitamin cannot be utilized. Research
has shown a direct correlation between mineral and vitamin deficiencies
and illnesses. CHELATED minerals allow only 40-60% absorbation whereas
COLLOIDAL minerals have a 98-100% absorbation. Commercial colloidal
silver has been around since the last 1800`s. It was approved by FDA (
Food and drug administration, USA) in the 1920`s as a safe antibiotic.
A
daily dose of colloidal silver improves the immune system resulting
more energy, vitality, quicker healing and a reduction of bodily toxins.
Research indicates colloidal silver may:*
· Support proper immune function
· Hunt down and kill the bad bacteria`s without damaging good bacteria`s in the digestive tract.
· Settle indigestion
· Promote restful sleep
· Inhibits the reproduction of bacteria.

this remarkable anti-pathogen 'nature identical' system. It has already
generated positive trial results, and it is already known to kill a
wide range of microorganisms in vitro, among them being the following:
BACTERIA:
YEASTSBACTERIA:
- Escherichia coli
- Yersinia enterocolitica
- Klebsiella pnemoniae
- Klebsiella oxytoca
- Streptococcus agalactiae
- Streptoccus mutans
- Staphylococcus aureus
- Salmonella species
- Shigella sonnei
- Listeria monocytogenes
- Acinetobacter species

Kib500 treatment has been available to practitioners and integrated medical healthcare professional since 2005.
When Kib 500 is used the OSCN ions are like many billions of smart missiles which only kill pathogens, without harming host or symbionts.
It is recommended that Kib500 is used under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
Ref:Manufacturer
When immune system is weakened, by factors that directly or indirectly
result from our nutritional status, the nutrient materials for repair,
replacement and energy production for the immune cells are not absorbed
from our food leaving us in short supply. In this situation, the
pathogens present in the body multiply freely and quickly and those from
outside enter and multiply freely taking root quickly.As a result
infections take over and disease is inevitable. This is especially the
case in viral infections.
The role of the OxyThiocyanate as designed in the KIB nutritional
supplement, is therefore to come to the aid of the weakened immune
system, quick boosting it many times fold and enabling it to
successfully fight against the viral infection.To abide with Tanzanian regulations we make no claim about what KIB can do. We leave that people and there are many happy people who have used KIB and are very excited with the results. Soon I will post the testimonials from those who are have been taking KIB.
It is impossible for the pathogen to build up resistance to the
OxyThiocyanate, because the OxyThiocyanate in the KIB is the same as the
oxythiocyanate normally produced by the immune system. In the immune
system Oxythiocyanate was not designed to target any specific pathogens .
This means that anti-biotic resistant strains of pathogens are
affectively attacked through the normal function of the now highly
boosted immune system.
Tuberculosis
Is mainly known to affect the lungs, but the infection can move to parts
of the body like kidneys, intestines, liver and affecting bones.
Tuberculosis is a highly contagious disease and produced by bacteria.Symptoms:
Unable to breath, fever, cronic fatique, chest pain, weight loss, sometimes spitting blood coughing.
It is recommended to isolate the person and separate clothes from other laundry.
Tuberculosis is a highly contagious disease and must be consulted by a physician.
ABSCESS ;
An Abscess is the accumulation of pus in a given part of the body, whether internal or external. It frequently occurs in the gums.
SYMPTOMS :
The most common symptoms are : Fever, irritation, inflammation and pain. Abscesses can form in any part of the body: the skin, the brain, the arms, the gums, the teeth, the stomach lining, the kidneys or the ears.
The most common cause is infection produced by bacteria, fungi and viruses which enters the body different ways: by injury or direct contact.
How effective treatment with KIB can be, shows on treatments for Asthma.
: KIB are used many different ways, by the treatment of Asthma, it is
partly heated, (steamed) and taken by glass. Asthma is an illness
characterized by episodes of breathing difficulty accompanied with the
sensation of suffocating due to the restricted respiratory tract inside
the lungs.
The causes are: Allergies, air pollution, respiratory infections, stress
or anxiety producing spasm (involuntary contractions) of the muscle
that surround the bronchi and not allowing air to enter the lungs.KIB + a combination of other supplements has made the treatment with KIB to be an relief for the many.
Diabetes most frequently found in adults is diabetes mellitus type 2, type one is found in children.
Treatment with KIB500 together with minerals and other supplements has been proved as effective on both type of diabetes.
The world health Organization defines diabetes in the following manner: Diabetes mellitus is a state of chronic hyperglycemia produced by various factors: genetic,nutritional, etc.
The symptoms can be many, but in the extremities of the chronically sick can be formation of skin ulcers and gangrene due to failure in the blood supply, due to arteriosclerosis and hypertension in this parts of the body. This can lead to serous consequences like amputations.
Vision can also be affected by chronic diabetes without any symptoms at the beginning. Diabetes is main cause of blindness in adults.

How important Coconut is for you
![]() | |
Dr Johnny P. Brinkmann |
Eating fresh coconuts, as a sizable portion of the world's population does as part of their daily diet, according to the Coconut Research Center, reaps many benefits that people will find attractive. Just a few of these advantages are outlined below.
Improves functioning of the brain
Just one serving of the fresh, white, fragrant coconut meat provides a person with 17% of their daily supply of copper. This trace mineral is responsible for activating enzymes that then trigger neurotransmitter production. These neurotransmitters are responsible for transferring information from cell to cell. This finding shows great promise in keeping age-related diseases, such as Alzheimer's, at bay.Manage weight
As the world's people become heavier, obesity brings crushing health issues that are both short, and long, term. A study in the June 2006 issue of Ceylon Medical Journal found that a dietary fat called medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) is found in abundant quantities in coconut. MCTs are known to aid significantly in the loss of weight given the speed at which the human body can metabolize them. MCTs have also been shown to help curb hunger pangs more effectively than those long-chain triglycerides such as the ones found in dairy products and meats.Improve cardiovascular health
Another way the MCTs in coconuts have been shown to improve health is in reducing the total amounts of cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels. A study in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition in October 2008 showed that volunteers who consumed MCTs as a part of a weight loss plan that was to last for four months showed a significant reduction in the amounts of harmful cholesterol levels in their blood.Add fiber
Just one cup of coconut meat has been shown to contain seven grams of fiber, This is according to the USDA National Nutrient Database. Most people already know that fiber helps keep the intestinal tract healthy and guards against constipation; fiber also helps protect people from diabetes, boosts their immune systems, lower the LDL cholesterol levels in blood and reduce blood sugar levels.Adding just a few cups of raw, natural coconut to the diet several times a week can reap huge benefits for people. From children to centenarians, coconuts provide health benefits that cannot be overlooked.

Food which Minimize the risk of cancer
With 44% of men and 39% of women now being diagnosed with cancer, it has become more important than ever to understand the foods that will not only nourish your body, but also detoxify it of any cancer causing agents. Here are some of the most potent cancer destroying foods and herbs.
Sea Vegetables
Kelp, kombu, and nori are three of the more common sea vegetables with remarkable effects on cancer. They are one of the richest and most bioavailable sources of iodine, a substance lacking in the average diet that is implicated in many patients with breast and ovarian cancer.
They are also rich in calcium and potassium, as well as all minerals, which assist in promoting a very alkaline environment, which makes it very difficult for existing cancer to survive.
Algae
Chlorella and spirulina are two of the most potent algae and are proven cancer fighters.
Due to their incredible detoxification action (including binding to and eliminating heavy metals) and immune boosting properties (by promoting production of healthy gut flora and fighting candida overgrowth), they are a must have when healing cancer.
Cruciferous Vegetables
Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage have been linked to lower cancer risks and have the ability to halt growth of cancer cells for tumors in the breast, uterine lining, lung, colon, liver, and cervix.
It appears that a phytochemical called sulforaphane can stimulate enzymes that detoxify carcinogens before they damage cells, as well as indole 3-carbinol and crambene, which are also suspected of activating detoxification enzymes.
Medicinal Mushrooms
Medicinal mushrooms such as reishi and chaga have had a number of bioactive molecules, including anti-tumor agents, identified in their structure. These bioactive compounds include polysaccharides, alkaloids, tocopherols, phenolics, flavonoids, carotenoids, folates, ascorbic acid enzymes, and organic acids.
Studies show that long-term consumption of reishi prevents tumor proliferation and growth by increasing the level of antioxidants in an individual's blood plasma while boosting the immunity of those suffering from advanced stage cancer.
Aloe Vera
Research shows strong immunomodulatory and anti-tumor properties for polysaccharides in aloe vera, which means it boosts immune system function and destroys cancer tumors.
A study in International Immunopharmacology showed that aloe vera polysaccharides exhibited potent macrophage activating activities including producing increased volumes of nitric oxide, which has anti-tumor potential.
Hemp
The hemp plant contains some of the most balanced and richest sources of oils on the planet, with an ideal ratio of 3:1 for omega 6 to omega 3. Hemp seed oil also contains 80% essential fatty acids, the highest of any plant.
Essential fatty acids are fundamental to immune function due to their antioxidants and anti-inflammatory fatty acids, which helps oxidize the cells and restores health at a cellular level. Since cancer cannot survive in a highly oxygenated environment, the superb EFA content in hemp makes it a great option for healing cancer.
Allium
A double blind, randomized study with over 3000 human subjects for seven clinical years showed that cancer risk was cut by 60% for those with the highest intake of allium containing vegetables, including aged garlic.
The miracle nutrient appears to be the enzyme alliinase (a nutrient in the Allium genus) which produces the anti-cancer compounds. The key is to crush it and let it sit for 15 minutes in order to release these anti-cancer compounds.
Turmeric
The Life Extension Foundation has conducted extensive research into the anti-cancer properties of turmeric and found that it targets 10 causative factors involved in cancer development, including DNA damage, chronic inflammation, and disruption of cell signaling pathways.
Hundreds of studies have also shown that curcumin is a potent anti-cancer food that blocks cancer development in a number of unique ways.
I hope this inspires you to trust nature, so we can start to reverse these scary statistics.

Danger of taking much proteine in mid age. New report.
DELHI: Eating a diet rich in animal proteins -
both meat and dairy products - during middle ages
causes as much risk of cancer as smoking, a new study
has found. This startling result emerges from a two
decade long study of over six thousand people carried
out by University of South Carolina (USC) scientists.
It is for the first time that a definitive correlation
between high protein consumption and mortality risk
has been shown. Earlier research gave conflicting
answers and many popular diets like Atkin's
recommended a high protein diet. The present study is
published in the journal Cell Metabolism.
"Almost everyone is going to have a cancer cell or pre-
cancer cell in them at some point. The question is:
Does it progress?" said corresponding author Valter
Longo, professor of biogerontology at the USC Davis
School of Gerontology and director of the USC
Longevity Institute. "Turns out one of the major factors
in determining if it does is is protein intake."
Not only is excessive protein consumption linked to a
dramatic rise in cancer mortality, but middle-aged
people who eat lots of proteins from animal sources—
including meat, milk and cheese—are also more
susceptible to early death in general, reveals the study.
Protein-lovers were 74 percent more likely to die of
any cause within the study period than their more
low-protein counterparts. They were also several times
more likely to die of diabetes.
"There's a misconception that because we all eat,
understanding nutrition is simple. But the question is
not whether a certain diet allows you to do well for
three days, but can it help you survive to be 100?" said
Longo.
Rather than look at adulthood as one monolithic phase
of life, as other researchers have done, the latest study
considers how biology changes as we age, and how
decisions in middle life may play out across the
human lifespan.
In other words, what's good for you at one age may be
damaging at another. Protein controls the growth
hormone IGF-I, which helps our bodies grow but has
been linked to cancer susceptibility. Levels of IGF-I
drop off dramatically after age 65, leading to potential
frailty and muscle loss. The study shows that while
high protein intake during middle age is very harmful,
it is protective for older adults: those over 65 who ate
a moderate- or high-protein diet were less susceptible
to disease.
Crucially, the researchers found that plant-based
proteins, such as those from beans, did not seem to
have the same mortality effects as animal proteins.
Rates of cancer and death also did not seem to be
affected by controlling for carbohydrate or fat
consumption, suggesting that animal protein is the
main culprit.
Longo's findings support recommendations from
several leading health agencies to consume about 0.8
grams of protein per kilogram of body weight every
day in middle age. For example, a 130-pound person
should eat about 45-50 grams of protein a day, with
preference for those derived from plants such as
legumes, Longo explains.
The researchers define a "high-protein" diet as deriving
at least 20 percent of calories from protein, including
both plant-based and animal-based protein. A
"moderate" protein diet includes 10-19 percent of
calories from protein, and a "low-protein" diet includes
less than 10 percent protein.
