Plant Antimicrobials-the end of the antibiotic era?

Prior to the development of antibiotics, plant antimicrobials were used for thousands of years and by numerous different civilizations as the first choice 'anti-infectives.'  Indeed, as recently as the First World War, the Russian Army used garlic as their primary defense against general infection and also as a poultice for treating all wounds incurred in battle. From the 1930's, the antibiotic era became established and, up until the 1960's, it was believed that their use would eventually lead to an eradication of bacterial infectious diseases in humans.   

Unfortunately, the emergence of resistance in the late 1960's dashed these hopes and, since that time, resistance to antibiotics has progressed at such a pace that now many common pathogens are no longer susceptible to most of the antibiotic types available.  As such, the end of the 'antibiotic era' as a universal panacea is likely to be confronted within the next 25 years.  It is for this reason that there is a renwed interest in plant anti-microbials and this interest is gathering strength as it becomes apparent how useful these compounds are likely to be in human healthcare.

The following four antimicrobials have been subjected to extensive research by Pharmax scientists: Allicin, Cinnamaldehydes,  Berberine, Oregano Oil. This research has led to the efficacious, safe, Pharmax range of plant antimicobials detailed in this section.  All of these products are designed for use alongside Pharmax's HLC range of probiotics, as the antimicrobials being used have been selected on the basis of having minimal effects against probiotic bacteria.  The use of this new and remarkable combination of probiotics and plant antimicrobials should now form the cornerstone of all dysbiosis therapy.
