Adult Probiotic – 50 Billion

Probiotics alongside antibiotics
Our gut bacteria (microbiome) is fundamental to our health. It has a wide range of functions in our body, including supporting both digestion and immunity. Maintaining a favorable balance of all species of bacteria is key to supporting the health of the microbiome and helping to prevent the overgrowth of the potentially pathogenic bacteria strains. An imbalance of bacteria is known as dysbiosis and can lead to symptoms such as bloating, gas, digestive discomfort, diarrhea and constipation.†

Antibiotics are designed to kill bacteria that cause disease, but, in many cases, they do not distinguish between pathogenic bacteria and the more beneficial types of bacteria present in our microbiome – they destroy all bacteria indiscriminately. As a result, taking antibiotics can very quickly lead to an imbalance in the gut microbiota and balance may not be restored once the course of antibiotics is complete. This can impact our digestion, immunity and various other body systems and functions, both in the short and longer-term, and may lead to side effects such as antibiotic-associated diarrhea and permanent changes in the structure and composition of our microbiota.†

Taking probiotics alongside and following antibiotics may help to support the beneficial bacteria species and maintain a balanced microbiota.†
