In this episode, Tara breaks down the true impact antibiotics can have on the gut, far beyond the short-term effects most people are told about.
She explains how even a single course can disrupt the microbiome for years, contributing to inflammation, immune dysregulation, and a wide range of ongoing symptoms.
Tara also shares her clinical perspective on why many gut healing approaches fall short, and outlines a practical protocol to protect and support the microbiome before, during, and after antibiotic use.
We cover:
- What actually happens in the gut after a course of antibiotics
- Why the effects can last up to four years (or longer)
- The link between antibiotics, inflammation, and chronic symptoms
- Why most “gut healing” approaches miss the mark
- My gut protection protocol (what I do in practice to minimize damage)
