Modern concepts of relationship between intestinal microflora and obesity

Obesity and related diseases are on the rise worldwide, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Overweight is also increasingly common among children, indicating that the epidemic will continue to grow [5]. In recent years, many scientific works have appeared indicating the relationship of intestinal microflora with many diseases, in particular, with diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, and inflammatory bowel diseases [7, 12]. Human body "collaborates" with the microbiota due to so-called phenomenon of metabolic integration [1]. At the same time, a person receives from microorganisms a number of key metabolites, in particular, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) [7]. It is known that with the same food intake and exercise regimen, there is a different susceptibility to an increase or decrease in body weight and a possible cause is the different metabolic activity of the human microbiome, including the different composition of the intestinal microflora [2, 5].

Antibiotics — by prescription only

Let us imagine a situation where you become sick. Today, thanks to the universal availability of the Internet, many, in an effort to get rid of the disease as soon as possible, are looking for the answer to the question on the World Wide Web: the symptoms of which disease have disrupted a healthy course of life? Having found similar signs, they make a diagnosis for themselves and there determine the course of their treatment and which medicine to take. And then everything is simple – each medicine has an instruction and a pharmacist in a pharmacy will help you choose the right one. And most often they prescribe antibiotic therapy for any reason, including a cold. Unfortunately, there is an erroneous opinion: if you want to get better faster, drink antibiotics. But they act on a specific microbe and not on any disease. 80 per cent of colds are caused by viruses and antibiotics are absolutely not needed here.
