I'm surprised nobody mentioned this book: "The Good Gut: Taking Control of Your Weight, Your Mood, and Your Long-term Health" Justin and Erica Sonnenburg are Stanford researchers that address almost all of this directly in the book with research they've done. Microbiome in the gut are directly impacted by antibiotics and in sterile mice studies those fed the exact same diets gain more weight after antibiotic treatments than those that aren't. As the Ars article makes a point of this is critical in a child's gut, stating that even single rounds of antibiotics can have negative impacts to the childs microbiome for years (side effects being weight gain comparative to other children, etc). Just started to read the book as I've been interested in probiotics and gut health for a few years now and there just isn't much data out there. The researchers wrote the book from a new parent perspective which is makes the book relatable to those who have. Keep in mind this isn't a book focused on attacking antibiotics, but the study of the microbiome in general and so antibiotics come into the picture of the book early (not finished with the book yet). Very good book so far otherwise.
