Otitis media is an infection or inflammation of the middle ear. This inflammation often begins when infections that cause sore throats, colds, or other respiratory or breathing problems spread to the middle ear. These can be viral or bacterial infections.
Conventional treatment does not affect the long term incidence or severity of ear infections, or have any long term cost benefit over no treatment at all. Long term antibiotic use is medically controversial.
Unfortunately studies indicate that children treated with antibiotics have a higher incidence of repeat ear infections when compared to children treated without antibiotics.
The most common antibiotics are often associated with adverse toxic side effects, including diarrhea, vomiting, diaper rash. Bactrim, an antibiotic commonly used to treat ear infections in children, can produce over sixty kinds of side effects.
Recommendations for Otitis media:
1: Avoid dairy products for 30 days. Substitute with rice milk. 2: Consider
Microdose DNA (Mucolyxir). Mucolyxir utilizing DNA from wild Pacific salmon and has been found to support respiratory health.
One method by which the body attempts to keep the lungs clear of mucus is to mount an immune response against the agent(s) causing the problem. When the attempts to eliminate foreign material fail, excessive DNA can build up from lysed white blood cells, resulting in viscous mucus. The small amount of DNA in Mucolyxirâ„¢ may balance mucus levels via a regulatory mechanism.
Mucolyxir has been found to be valuable in acute and chronic otitis media.
In clinical trials with over 100 infants and children with acute otitis media, Allan Lieberman M.D. found that 80-90% of the children responded on microdose DNA.
