So, as you can see, bacteria are vital to human survival. Ever since Fleming's discovery, antibiotic use has flourished at an incredible rate. Four years after mass production of penicillin began, a frightening and unexpected phenomenon started to occur. Some of the deadly bacteria that the antibiotic was supposed to destroy began developing resistance. When in doubt, look at how Creation re-establishes colonies which have been wiped out by antibiotic treatments.
Harmful bacteria proliferate in an unhealthy body.
Good bacteria are needed to seek out and destroy these pathogenic microbes before they can cause significant damage. That brings us to the use of probiotic supplements. Generally, those who eat a great deal of red meat should supplement their meals with probiotics. Red meat tends to favor the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Also, much of the meat in this country is treated with hormones and antibiotics.
