Common medications that harm your gut health (& what you can use instead for pain control and more!)

In this Wild Wisdom episode, you’ll discover:

✅ The top 3 types of medications that can seriously harm the health of your gut and your gut microbiome.⁠ 

✅ Which pain medications are the ones you should try to avoid, and what to use instead.⁠

✅ Why antacid medications (e.g. proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole, pantoprazole) for heartburn or acid reflux can seriously harm your health.⁠ ⁠ And more! ⁠ ⁠ 

 

🙄 When you harm your gut health, you harm your whole body health, placing yourself at increased risk for serious infections and malnutrition.⁠ ⁠ 

 

🙏🏼 Not all medications have this potential for significant harm, so let’s focus on replacing or minimizing the damage from the ones that do!⁠ 

 

💪 Empower yourself with this super important Wild Wisdom episode! 

 

To your BEST health, ⁠

😍 PS: Consider adding boswellia and turmeric to your toolbox if you find yourself occasionally or frequently needing to take anti-inflammatory medications for pain. In Fullscript I have found a good boswellia supplement option with clean ingredients at the correct suggested dosage.
