The weight of the microbiome
The human body is even colonized by the microorganisms that inhabit it. It is often said figuratively that there are more of them than the cells of the human body. Some of them exert beneficial effects on the functioning of the human body. Others, on the other hand, may even cause harm.
That is why it is so important to take care of the proper qualitative and quantitative composition of the microbiome.
What kills probiotics - antibiotics
Sometimes there is an excessive growth of unfavorable bacteria in the body, to such an extent that the intervention of a doctor is necessary. This often ends with the use of an antibiotic. Antibiotics, therefore, are used to "kill" bacteria.
What kills probiotics - bad diet
An improperly composed diet can also be the reason why unfavorable microbes begin to dominate the body. In a way, therefore, it can be said that the wrong diet will also kill beneficial microorganisms in the human body.
Poor dietary habits also include excessive alcohol consumption. However, different types of alcohol can have different effects on the microorganisms that colonize the gut.
What kills probiotics - others
Other factors that can contribute to the killing of beneficial microorganisms, which is obliquely exploited by the more aggressive ones, often with negative effects on the human body, can also include insufficient sleep and excess stress.
