Keep Your Tendons Healthy!

Did you know that a common reaction to taking certain antibiotics is that a tendon in your body will degenerate? Normally it is the Achilles tendon, but it can be other tendons. I’ve had patients experience this and it is no fun. That is another reason I love the nutritional approach I use in my practice so I can keep from talking antibiotics and help other people avoid them too. The last antibiotic I took was in 1980. I’m not saying I won’t ever take one, but as long as I can clear the infection with nutritional products, why would I want the side effects of the antibiotics? It is well known they disturb the digestive tract by killing our good bacteria. The moral of the story: avoid them if you can!
