Professor Scaldaferri (Rome. Italy) speaks about the role of antibiotics in the interaction with microbiota.
Antibiotics can affect the entire gut microbiota and the way it responds to antibiotics depends upon the person; what is demostrated by recent studies is that the use of antibiotics at early stages in life are associated with complications such as diabetis and obesity. That is why we need some therapy able to counteract the dangerous potential of antibiotics.
