Super antibiotics could come from alligator blood
Antibiotics are a seriously important part of modern medicine, but due to certain infections becoming antibiotic-resistant, they can't be doled out as plentifully as some would like. That might change in the near future, however, due to a new advancement from an unlikely source: the blood of alligators.
Yes, it turns out that proteins in gator blood might be the base for powerful new antibiotics that will be effective against "superbugs" that are resistant to current medicines. I wouldn't want to be the poor scientist who has to collect said alligator blood, but it's great to see such advancements happening.

And that's how humanity became the Sleestaks.

There's no need to wait to benefit from the medicinal properties of gator and croc blood. I've been using a product called Liquid Manna for several years, with my patients, and have had amazing results. It is one of the most effective natural antibiotics I've ever used in 20 years of clinical practice. It doesn't work for everything, and the host's immune system is still important to work with. But for treating many difficult infections, especially those that are antibiotic resistant, it is very good. Liquid Manna is a synthesized extract of crododile and great white shark polypeptides. You can contact me for consults about its use and your health problems, order it from my clinic, or order it from their website at www.liquidmannagold.com

How should I buy Liquid Manna, are you on the market? I got hepatitis B, 9 years ago, since that my immune system is very fragile.
Sincerely Erzsebet.
