Today I’m talking about how medications can create imbalances in the body that may be causing you a lot of anxiety and panic attacks. These are common medications many people take daily such as statins, antidepressants, blood pressure medications, and birth control.

For this episode, I will be focusing on antidepressants and birth control, two common medications that are known to have anxiety as a side-effect.

In this episode, I discuss:

How birth control and antidepressants can alter the gut microbiome, causing issues like leaky gut, killing good bacteria, and causing yeast infections
Antidepressants lack sufficient safety studies and can increase the risk of chronic anxiety and functional impairment
A 2019 study revealed that serotonin reuptake inhibitors can have antimicrobial effects on the gut microbiome
Birth control disrupts the gut microbiome, depletes key nutrients, and can lead to anxiety and panic attacks
The suppression of natural hormones with synthetic ones in birth control often leads to anxiety and depression in women
A case study of my client Sara who, through a holistic approach to healing, was able to overcome severe PMDD, anxiety, and depression
Get a second opinion if you feel your concerns are not being heard, thoroughly research any new medications before taking them, and consider lifestyles changes to avoid them
