Hey there,

Well, When taking antibiotics,the antibiotics affect the gut bacteria that help us digest food. Like when you eat alot, you have an upset stomach and alot of times you will then have diarrhea.

Hope this helps.

Ans.

Antibiotics are antimicrobial substances, which can be used to kill or inhibit the growth of microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi. Many useful microbes are found in our body, such as good bacteria found in intestines that help in food digestion.

When we use antibiotics to kill pathogenic bacteria, these antibiotics also kill these good bacteria. This results in improper digestion and causes diarrhea. Thus, diarrhea is a common side effect due to antibiotics as these antibiotics also kill gut microbes that help in digestion.

crimeas [40]

This indicator is an estimate of the amount of space on the earth that an individual uses in order to survive using existing technology. This space includes the biologically productive land and water area that produces the resources consumed by that individual such as food, water, energy, clothing, and building materials. It also includes the amount of land and water required to assimilate the wastes generated by that person. In other words, the ecological footprint measures a person's demand on the bio-capacity of the Earth.
