Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis – Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis (SBE) is a type of bacterial infective endocarditis, which is an infection of the endocardium (the lining of your heart). This may also affect the heart valves.
Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis is not an autoimmune disease. However, if SBE is established, then there is a higher risk of developing an autoimmune disease following.
Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis Symptoms
Unlike Acute Bacterial Endocarditis, this is slowly developing. Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis must be treated, or is otherwise fatal.
- Fever or chills without explanation
- Joint and Muscle Aches
- Skin Rashes
- Lack of Energy
- Decreased Appetite
- Slightly Elevated Heart Rate
- Night Sweats
- Weight Loss
- Pain in the back or chest
- Skin Rashes
Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis Diagnosis
SPECIALISTS
- Cardiologist
BLOOD TESTS
- Standard Blood Test
- Blood Culture
- Echocardiography
- Computerized Tomography (CT) Scan
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Treatment Options for SBE
High Dose IV Antibiotics
| Most patients respond to the treatment of steroids. However, if patients are unresponsive to the drug therapy, a cochlear implant may be considered. In addition, some patients benefit from the use of hearing aids. |
Natural Options
Natural Antibiotics:
- Manuka honey
- Tea tree
- Olive leaf extract
- Raw garlic
- Echinacea

- Neem
- Pau d’arco
- Oil of oregano
Rife Machine: Using electromagnetic frequencies to target and kill specific microorganisms including bacteria.
Detoxification: consuming a diet of only fruits and vegetables for a short amount of time to allow your body to fight off infection and cleanse itself of the toxic or pathogenic debris
BioEnergetics Balancing: Using energy to introduce the electromagnetic signature of the culprit (bacteria) to the body so it is able to identify and eliminate it. This practice balances the body bringing it back to homeostasis so the body can return to healthy, normal function. Because Autoimmune disease are a product of the body being out of balance (and therefore attacking itself) balancing can be incredibly helpful.
