Episode Details

Today we're going to do our very first Ask the Naturopath episode! In these episodes, which I'm hoping to do once a month, I am going to answer a question from one of our Natural Super Kids Klub members. I want to pick questions that will allow us to delve a bit deeper into some of the really important concepts when it comes to kids’ health.
 
 In this very first Ask the Naturopath episode I am answering our Klub member Ambers question "Miss 4 is on antibiotics for an ear infection. Her behaviour, I think since being on antibiotics, has been hugely emotional. Could this be attributed? Anything I can do to help her?"

While answering Amber's question on the episode we talk about 

• The possible causes of kids’ behavioral changes in relation to infection or antibiotic use.
• How overuse of antibiotics can affect the good bacteria in a child’s gut microbiome which may lead to mood or behavioral changes. 
• We delve deeper into this topic as we explore medication additives, the gut-brain connection, the importance of replenishing good gut bacteria after antibiotic use and so much more.
