Antibiotics can be really tough on us, it kills off our gut bacteria - a big part of our immune system lies in the good health of our gut microbiome. Some antibiotics and other prescriptions also contain fluoride and will contribute to halide toxicity. A year and a half on prescription antibiotics and a crazy boatload of other pharmaceuticals in an attempt to cure late stage lyme disease nearly killed me.
We really need to be talking more about more natural ways to attain/maintain good health; knowledge in this area is something I am in passionate pursuit of, and I really appreciate articles like yours here.
In case you might be interested, I have a recent article that touches on halide toxicity and iodine sufficiency here:
