Happy to hear you were able to free yourself of these vices. It's interesting that you were worried about cbd in particular since it's non psychoactive and very health promoting in various ways. I've even heard Dr. Axe recommend it before but I'm sure you had your reasons and ideals. How did you go about coming off the kratom? I have an issue with it myself. I've had some sort of autoimmune or adrenal fatigue or something for over 10 years. I discovered kratom and it changed my life however it became a crutch for daily life functions and I'm super addicted to it despite most people have no problem quitting it. I can hardly function without it now unfortunately. I'm sure as with everything there are "bad" things it might cause when used as much as I do but I'd imagine there's much worse ways to deal with my issues or worse substances I could have chosen to use. Atleast it's nothing more than a ground leaf not oxytocin or whatever. However I'd like to free myself of it sooner than later. I tried cold turkey for 3 days and it was horribly hard and I couldn't hardly do a thing. I had to go back to work and had no choice but to use it again. Curious how bad you were with it and how you came off it?

I was new to caregiving when I cared for my grandparents through their final years, but now looking back I can see that many of their medical issues were due to their medications. 😢 I was so naive during most of that time that I thought the doctors were "helping" us, and perhaps some of them were still well meaning back then. When I first started helping them, the first thing I questioned was that my Grandma was taking two extra strength Tylenol three times a day, despite the fact that she was not in any noticeable pain. I did at least have the presence of mind to start backing off on those. Even at that time we knew large doses of Tylenol are harmful. Something that was likely a huge part of my grandfather's decline was the fact that he was on Flomax. He was having weak spells every single day and fell on an almost daily basis, sometimes getting injured very seriously. At this point, of course, I had to leave my job to be home with them full time.

The majority of doctors are not trained in nutrition. And the nutritionist that are certified follow the standard American diet. So basically we are screwed. They are not going to recommend nutrition over prescription. We have to take responsibility for our own health. Videos like this will help us and you should keep giving us information like this. Love this video and will keep watching your great advice. I will be checking my medication’s for the nutritional deficiencies they cause and hopefully correct it.

Very insightful, especially at the end with other remedies. I used to be low fat, high carb+daily Aspirin for distance running but somehow got fat anyway. My doctor 8 years ago put me on a high fat diet with Vitamin D in the morning and ZMA at night. I forgot, took both at night, and had sleep problems. Took Vitamin D in the morning and everything turned around. Truth is, cholesterol in the diet doesn’t equate to cholesterol in the blood. Increasing fat and cholesterol in my diet along with trading distance running for moderate volume resistance training decreased my body fat and LDL. Eat fat, get skinny.

I believed that taking a hypertension drug was the easy way to deal with that issue, then my best friends’ grandfather spoke some wisdom to me and I could not get what he said out of my mind. I was really traumatized by what he said to the extent that I could not sleep. He was extremely healthy and he was 98 when he died, but his very words had an impact on me to this very day and probably for the rest of my life. By the way, I no longer need that hypertension pill or any other, they only cover up the symptoms. I am all about eating healthy foods and exercise.

I’ve been made fun of, looked at sideways etc. the side effects lists alone have always made me question it. Why would I trade one thing for another and what else is it doing to me? As a young woman I told myself I would not subject myself to the “I’ll be old in a wheelchair and taking medications” life that people expect. Nope. I will try all other alternatives and lifestyle changes before I use a medicine. And I always say if a drug is needed why would we advertise. And if there is a budget for advertising cut the cost of the med and don’t advertise… 🤔 I despise the use of marketing which is a play on the mind when it comes to this.

👍Thank you Dr Josh Axe for another awesome informational video. ♥️👏 Greetings from Singapore. Other than into Immunolgy and Gerontology research work in Asia, I have also taken an interest in working on traditional medicinal healing (alternative natural "real foods as healthfoods). The problems with Prescriptive drugs go beyond causing hormonal and endocrine imbalances and dysfunction, and even much of our modern day supplements contain more than one needed formula of that specific dose and ingredient content within the supplement itself. In pill form, be it capsule or tablet, it may come with artificial fillers, high heat treated, cornstarch or gluten-based capsuled shells and even microplastics and heavy metals. What we have seen from our findings are the healthier seniors, elders and also the centenarians go "pill-less", by adopting a lifestyle with natural wholesome diet on small, light and simple meal(s), eschewing highly processed packaged snacks and foods.

I take amlodipoline besylate, isobide mononitrate, and ranozaline. I have been taking 1 of each in the morning and the ranozaline in the evening again. I have coronary microvascular disease and coronary artery spasm. I spent 5 yrs on the couch since all drs dismissed me. My 5th cardiologist gave me these meds over 14 mos. I now can live my life. I made it to 62 so glad I made it to see my kids grow up..I am eating carnivore now. Hoping that will help me heal.

57, and no drugs and that is my goal as I age. I’m the only person in my social circle that does not take any medication and that’s also including my family members. 🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻

Thanks for the info, Dr. Axe. Do you have any information on antipsychotics and the defincies those may be causing? I didn't see those in the chart. Maybe you could do a video on those in the future? Thanks so much. :)

Never thought my BP would skyrocket but its so high I could have heart attack or stroke. How fast I just took one today. Not staying on it will do the work mentally and physically to make this temporary

What do you think about thyroid medication like levothyroxine? I've been on Levothyroxine since December 2022 and my docs are lowering or increasing my dose according lab results and not running the full panel. My western doctor says for hypothyroidism/ Hashimoto's. The same doctor who put me on it tested me for calcium very recently and it’s low. Help! Thanks for the podcasts/videos.

34 years old female, never been on prescribed meds for too long. I got some antibiotics when I was younger but that’s it. Now I’m pregnant so I take vitamins and supplements but I try to eat more healthier food. Hopefully it stays this way and I don’t need any more prescriptions

@valeriej6828 5 ай бұрын

What do you suggest to take instead of Zoloft, Wellbutrin, Klonopin? Or is it best to take the supplements that they deplete? These scare me to taper off because I’ve been in some really dark places that I’d never want to go back to.

I had severe gut issues and the only food I could eat was meat, this was back in 2018. I discovered that it was called the ‘carnivore diet’ and kept going with it, but had to take thyroid hormone (cytomel), which really gave me my life back. Some of us have tried to heal naturally, but that’s not always possible when dealing with thyroid issues. You can lower the dose, but getting off completely isn’t always an option!

Are you still on the carnivore diet? How do you feel and what's your liver enzymes like?
