More Information

Antibiotics are a group of medications that are prescribed to treat bacterial infections. They are designed to eliminate harmful bacteria but may also disrupt the balance of good or beneficial bacteria that live in our digestive tract. This may lead to a “dysbiosis” or imbalance of the natural flora or beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract. Unless beneficial bacteria are re-introduced into the digestive tract other less beneficial organisms have the opportunity to grow and proliferate.

The lining of the digestive tract protects our body from what we eat, drink and breathe on a daily basis. Having the right balance of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract plays an integral part in regulating our immune function at a gut level. Problems can frequently appear following antibiotic therapy due to toxins produced by unfavourable bacteria in the intestinal tract.

Besides the elimination of beneficial bacteria, long-term use of antibiotics may cause other essential nutrients such as B group vitamins to be depleted. Taking a natural product designed to replace good bacteria and depleted nutrients alongside prescribed medication represents a positive interaction between pharmaceutical medication and natural supplements. Antibiotics therapy has been shown to deplete a range of B group vitamins and vitamin K and disrupt the balance of beneficial probiotic bacteria that inhabit the small and large intestine.
