Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria develop the ability to survive antibiotics, often due to their overuse and misuse, leading to difficult-to-treat infections.
Probiotics and Antibiotic Resistance:
Probiotics may help by:
- Restoring Gut Flora: They can balance beneficial gut bacteria disrupted by antibiotics.
- Enhancing Immune Response: A healthy gut microbiome supports the immune system, reducing infection risk.
Tackling antibiotic resistance is crucial, and probiotics can aid in maintaining gut health during antibiotic treatment.
