Biofilms and Chronic Infections

Biofilms are a strategic and evolutionary mechanism that bacteria have adapted as a means to resist host immune defences. In integrative medicine, this emerging area has become a new dimension in the treatment of resistant gut infections. Today we're joined by Helen Padarin, who shares her valuable clinical expertise treating infections, biofilms and gut imbalances. Helen's approach is not to attack "bad" organisms directly, rather, to undo the ways pathogens evade the immune system, support host immune defences and restore tissue heath to help bring balance to the gut ecosystem. *****DISCLAIMER: The information provided on FX Medicine is for educational and informational purposes only.
