Episode 122: The Silent Pandemic: Why Antibiotics Are Stopping Working

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is being called the "silent pandemic" by global health experts, but what does that actually mean? In this episode of the Wholistic Living Podcast, we explore why antibiotic-resistant infections are increasing worldwide, how bacteria develop resistance through biofilms and horizontal gene transfer, and why common microbes such as E. coli, Klebsiella, Streptococcus, and Enterococcus are becoming a growing concern. Learn why most colds and flus are viral and do not respond to antibiotics, how repeated antibiotic use can impact the gut microbiome, and what a holistic approach to immune resilience can teach us about preventing infection. We'll discuss the latest antimicrobial resistance statistics, the role of stool testing, and practical ways to support your immune system naturally through nutrition, lifestyle, and gut health.Equip Grass fed protein: www.equipfoods.com/MARLA60 Day Gut Reset ($200 OFF) - https://checkout.teachable.com/secure/1716725/checkout/order_52y48hdz?coupon_code=SECRETOFFER
