The next day, we will meet with our legislators to urge them to protect public health and join us in the fight to end the harm caused by C. diff infections.
Sponsored by Nestle.
Near the bottom of their website, they list a whole bunch of corporate sponsors -- lots of big pharma companies. https://cdiff.org/
In the contagionlive video, PLF’s CEO Christian John Lillis blames chronic disease on agriculture/diet... Is he really not familiar with Dr Martin Blaser and the long-term harms of antibiotics? Incredible that even the CEO of the major C. Diff foundation is seemingly so ignorant about the microbiome.
He also says "Infectious disease is like wrong place, wrong time", which isn't even true for C. diff.
C. diff infections stem from an overuse/abuse of antibiotics killing off our host-native microbiomes, which allows C. diff to flourish. The solution is reducing antibiotic use/abuse and adding back the host-native microbes that usually control/suppress it.
Chronic disease is in large part due to an overuse/abuse of antibiotics killing off our host-native microbiomes. The solution is reducing antibiotic use/abuse and adding back the host-native microbes that are essential for the proper function of nearly every bodily system.
