Even short-term antibiotic use can cause lasting damage to your gut. A recent study found that just five days of ciprofloxacin created antibiotic-resistant strains that persisted in the gut for up to a year. These changes disrupt microbiome balance, eliminate beneficial bacteria, and make it easier for resistance to spread. To protect gut health, avoid unnecessary antibiotics, support keystone bacteria, and choose probiotic-rich, low-linoleic acid foods.
