    There are good and bad bacteria in the intestines. Good bacteria are called probiotics, which can produce amino acids, vitamins, etc. Okay, I will talk about them in detail later; bad bacteria are called spoilage bacteria, which can produce pathogenic toxic substances and even stinky farts. Why not kill all spoilage bacteria, leaving only probiotics? This is impossible, because probiotics and spoilage bacteria are mixed together, and antibiotics have no selectivity for probiotics and spoilage bacteria.
