What to Do When Taking Antibiotics: Supplement and Lifestyle Tips
Shoot us a text and spill the tea on what you want to hear more of!
In this episode, I discuss what I will supplement with when having to take antibiotics. There will inevitably come a time when you or someone you know has to take antibiotics and these are my go-to supports to negate unwanted side effects.
Key Takeaways:
- Probiotics: The type of probiotic you take is essential to the efficacy and prevention of GI upset.
- Vitamin D Supplementation: Essential for promoting the health of good bacteria and overall gut function, especially when antibiotics are in use.
- Alkalizing Diet: The importance of an alkaline diet, with high leafy green intake and the inclusion of Himalayan pink salt or supplements like LMNT and Dr. Daryl's acid-kicking minerals to improve gut health.
- Liver Support: Golden Thread and Schisandra supplements for liver support due to their antimicrobial properties and effects on glutathione production.
- Individualized Care: Caution is advised about supplement dosages, especially for children, pregnant, or breastfeeding women, and involving a healthcare provider in these decisions is crucial.
