Sugar-rich foods worsen gut damage from antibiotics, study finds
Original: Sugar-rich foods exacerbate antibiotic-induced microbiome disruption
New research published in Nature reports that diets high in sugar intensify the disruption antibiotics cause to the gut microbiome. The findings suggest that what people eat during a course of antibiotics may shape how badly their gut bacteria are harmed and how well the microbiome recovers afterwards. Nutrition and health commentators are highlighting the results as a further reason to limit sugar intake during medical treatment.
Why now: A new Nature study linking sugar consumption to worse antibiotic effects on gut bacteria is drawing attention in health and nutrition circles.
