antibiotics

I would agree that some sort of gut dysbiosis strategy is appropriate but more as part of a larger strategy which also addresses redox control points as well as human phenotypic and genotypic corruption. There is as yet, no clear consensus on treating this gut dysbiosis, so I take a pretty conservative approach that follows a 3R strategy (remove, repair and replace) as well as a modified elimination diet and especially fructose elimination.

To me, CFS is best viewed as a very complex terrain issue and that microbes are simply taking advantage of this fact so that reductionism to drugs or pharmaceuticals directed against single agents or pathways will be a poor therapeutic choice except perhaps early in the illness and in the occasional patient who is much less complex.
