Connection Between Antibiotics and Depression — Antibiotics and Depression

Why does this happen?

It has to do with your gut bacteria being wiped out completely and not doing anything (like probiotics AND anti-fungals) to replenish it. Roughly 90 percent of serotonin receptors are located in the gut. Well-known for its happiness-inducing qualities, serotonin is a neurotransmitter (or chemical) that relays messages from certain parts of your brain to others.

It’s a vicious, vicious cycle proven by science. It takes your gut ONE YEAR to recover from a round of antibiotics and eating yogurt isn’t going to fix it. The sugar could actually be feeding your Candida issue.

The gut and the brain are very connected. Heal the gut. Heal the body! Keeping your immune system and gut health in check can help keep you free from sickness that leads to expensive doctor visits and more antibiotics.

One day this will be common knowledge but for now industries that make billions from pharmaceuticals with possible side effects to treat depression think it’s a good idea to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Gut health is important to help you digest foods into small micro-nutrients to feed the body and cells. The gut is also a major contributor to your immune system.

Need a probiotic/prebiotic/enzymes? We use the most powerful gut formula around! It has whole food, plant based enzymes along with stabilized probiotics for optimal results.

Message me for our fermented, whole food, plant based digestive enzymes with stabilized probiotics and prebiotics.

Anybody that is interested in putting the best supplement formulas into their body to optimize health and wellness, we have not only our digestive enzymes, but the most absorbed CBD Fluid (not oils which barely absorb and can cause liver damage), Emulin which helps control blood sugars, zeolite to help detox heavy metals, a formula with fulvic acid, humic acid, carbon 60 and activated charcoal to remove chemicals and toxins from your body, C DefenZ which helps boost your immune system with Vit C, D and Zinc. Now until the end of the year if you buy in packs of 3 get 4 free, buy 6 get 6 free (Free items are from select products).

Need a gift idea for a family member or friend? Get them my book, “The Next Health Revolution – A Natural Path To Revive Your Health and Maximize Wellness.” You can pick up a copy in the office or Click Here to Order.

Remember we will be celebrating in the office the weeks leading into Christmas and New Years! The office is already decorated but get ready for snacks, hot apple cider and more.
Want to win prizes? Ask Donna or myself how to enter and win: chiroflow pillow, TENs Unit, supplements, a copy of my book, a Dunkin Gift Card and grand prize a Gift Certificate for Dinner at a local restaurant.

Happy New Year and Another Successful “Baby It’s Cold Outside”

Happy New Year everybody! 2017 is here and time for us to refocus on our health and wellness. Every day is a new start to set goals to accomplish for the day. It’s much easier if we set small goals each day.

Every New Year people set resolutions and never get started on them or give up after just days to a couple of weeks. It’s best to take baby steps. Some easy basic steps are to commit to drinking half your body weight in ounces of water every day. Try cutting out caffeine and sugar from your diet. Sugar and caffeine are addictive. They also lead to many health issues.

This year we also held our annual holiday food and coat drive. For the last 10 years Dr. Russell Brokstein has been collecting non perishable food and coats to help those less fortunate. Watch Dr. Russell in this short New Year video:

So, lets get started on making the New Year even better. I’m here to help you every step of the way! Let me know if you need some motivation.
