Over-prescribing of antibiotics is the reason we have so many resistant forms of infection.

You can purchase capsules of cranberry extract that make the urinary tract system "inhospitable" to bacterial infection. I used to suffer from frequent UTIs until I discovered this wonderful extract. You can also drink cranberry juice for the same effect, but it has lots of sugar in it.
