In Asia, green tea is favorite drink, Not even half-hearted, they often drink it with drugs such as antibiotics. Researchers interested in seeing whether green tea may reduce, increase, or did not affect the performance of antibiotics.
The result is surprising, according to study results, green tea can enhance the ability of antibiotics against resistant bacteria, even though super germs.

For example, the effect of chloramphenicol kills bacteria better than 99.99 percent while drinking green tea compared with no use it.
The research also found green tea are able to make 20 percent of resistant bacteria become susceptible to cephalosporin antibiotics, an important type of of antibiotics to overcome bacterial strains that had become resistant or immune.
The researchers added, almost in every case and all types of antibiotics they tested, giving antibiotics with green tea increases the antibiotics work, and reduce drug resistance in bacteria. And for certain cases, green tea with a low concentration though still effective.
Their results indicated that we should seriously consider it more natural ingredients that are consumed every day. In the future we will look for and investigate natural materials such as majoram and thyme. It is necessary to examine whether they also have an active substance that helps fight bacteria resistant to drugs.
