Episode Synopsis

Antibiotic resistance is on the rise—and it’s not just from overprescribed meds.In this episode, we break down how routine antibiotics in livestock and common painkillers like ibuprofen are quietly weakening the power of antibiotics. You'll learn how resistance develops, how it spreads through food and the environment, and why everyday exposures are making once-treatable infections harder to fight.If you care about what goes in your body and what ends up on your plate, this one’s for you.
