Scientists at Northeastern University have discovered an antibiotic in the soil that looks to be effective at killing deadly pathogens like MRSA and tuberculosis.
Even more promising, lead researcher Kim Lewis says those pathogens weren't able to develop a resistance to the antibiotic.

that looks to be effective at killing deadly pathogens like MRSA and tuberculosis.Until it's over prescribed and the pathogens morph into something stronger.

If you haven’t already watched “Vice Special Report: Killing Cancer” on You Tube or Google links, you need to see what wonderful work is finally coming to light in cancer research. It gives you hope that we are finally seeing progress, but people need to know about it and support it.
The sickening part is that some of these very promising treatments have had trouble getting money to continue. Instead of blowing billions on crony-headed solar projects, this research should have been a priority for the USA because it touches every family in America.

Just use lactoferrin. Very effective.
Do a search for MRSA & lactoferrin... you’ll get lots of hits.

Until it's over prescribed and the pathogens morph into something stronger. Sometime in the future refrigerators will become useless for preserving food because microbes are evolving to live in them. The libtard solution will be to ban refrigerators.

I try not to get medical info from Youtube. I may as well listen to Louis Farrakhan for medical advice.

Yes. I use it and have noticed positive changes in my health. It has helped to lower cholesterol in my twin brother too.

apparently the soil they used to collect the microbes has not been sprayed with Roundup or other microbe killing farm chemicals

I use it also. My arthritis is almost gone, smoothed out wrinkles, lost weight, chronic headaches greatly minimized.
Can’t seem to take more than about 1 1/4 teaspoons/day though, due to one socially embarrassing side effect. Let’s just say that I now understand why cows are, umm, flatulent....

Northeastern University??? I know that school well.It's a good school..better than many...but not the place where one would expect a noteworthy medical discovery to be made.You'd expect a discovery like that to be made about a half mile down Huntington Ave....at Harvard Medical School.
