Although not strictly pertinent to life in Tenerife, I thought that I’d share this podcast with you because as many of you will know, the use of antibiotics in Spain is diverse and not in line with what you’d see in the UK. Anyway I think that this is worth a listen:

“Professors Nick Finer and Tim Spector consider the possible role of gut microbes in human disease, including a study linking childhood obesity to antibiotic use.”
