Ce se întâmplă dacă consumi alimente bogate în zahăr pe durata tratamentului cu antibiotice. Descoperirea făcută de un nou studiu

A study published in Nature highlights the importance of avoiding sugar-sweetened foods and drinks during antibiotic treatment to protect gut microbiota. Researchers monitored the diets of leukemia patients undergoing intensive treatment, finding that high sugar intake correlated with reduced diversity in gut bacteria. This reduction increases the risk of infections, particularly from Enterococcus faecium, which can lead to severe complications. The study emphasizes the need for careful dietary management alongside antibiotic prescriptions to enhance recovery and suggests that hospitals can play a crucial role in this process.
