Antibiotic Overuse - The Unspoken Pandemic
Antibiotics are everywhere. They're the first solution to any infection, used prophylatically before and after surgeries, and even for rashes in infants and young children. We're saying it - it's a pandemic. The problem with antibiotics is - bacteria can build up tolerance to them, making them ineffective. And possibly even worse - antibiotics wipe out all good bacteria also, leaving you potentially more susceptible to infections and bacteria than before. This podcast covers it all:The problem with using antibiotics Why antibiotics make you more susceptible to "bad" bacteriaThe link between antibiotics and SIBONature's antibioticsSupplements that are superior to antibiotics - and whyWhy a multi-faceted approach is neededHow to approach "recovery" from antibiotic usePlease check below for exact timestamps of topics covered.
