The Top 10 Health Benefits of Probiotics

PROTECT AGAINST ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE

According to the World Health Organization, one of the most serious health threats of our time is the global resistance to antibiotics. This has occurred as a result of overprescribing and overuse of antibiotics for minor ailments (such as colds), allowing bacteria to ‘adapt’ to the drugs in a way that means they are no longer inhibited by them. It’s believed that the solution to this problem may be in probiotics. Unlike antibiotics, probiotics promote the development of healthy bacteria to kill off bad bacteria, strengthening the natural immune system.
