3 Ways Natural Supplements Can Assist Common Prescriptions

<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Natural supplements are becoming a normal part of life for most Americans&period; This is likely due to the amount of people interested in healthy living to prevent issues&period; This makes sense since hospitals are expensive&period; It is estimated that nearly one-third of Americans are now mixing supplements with their medications&period; No one should mix a medication with a supplement unless a health specialist approves it&comma; but the additional nutrients can be helpful&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Maintaining Gut Bacteria<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">There is a delicate balance in life&comma; which is reflected in a person&&num;8217&semi;s body&period; One of the most popular types of prescriptions given to Americans&comma; either over-the-counter or prescribed&comma; is antibiotics&period; These prescriptions are meant to destroy different pathogens within the body&period; Some are more powerful than others&comma; but their goal is to kill bacteria&period; This is a good thing for those suffering from different bacteria diseases&comma; but there is a small problem&period; Some of these medications don&&num;8217&semi;t know the difference between good bacteria and bad bacteria&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Yes&comma; there is good bacteria within the body&comma; which are usually called probiotics&period; These organisms help the body stay in control of the bad bacteria&comma; but the system can fail from time to time&comma; which can allow a person to get sick&period; Medications are not sophisticated enough to kill one bacteria without killing the other&period; This means the body will need a strong layer of protection as the medication kills bad bacteria&period; One of the most important types of supplements that those taking antibiotics need is probiotics&period; These come in pill form&comma; but some come in liquid form&comma; too&period; It should be noted that probiotics help maintain gut health and promote digestion&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Controlling Blood Flow<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Another common drug that many Americans take is decongestants&period; These prescription drugs help relieve runny noses&comma; which is exactly the effect that people are looking for&comma; but there is a side effect worth noting&period; The reason that this works is because this medication causes blood vessels to swell up just a bit&period; The swelling focuses on the mucous membrane&comma; which helps tighten up the sinuses&comma; but this effect can penetrate throughout the rest of the body&period; This happens often&comma; especially when the person taking the prescription is forced to take more than a few doses per day&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">There are a lot of negative side effects that people might experience with tightened blood vessels such as insomnia&comma; restlessness&comma; anxiety&comma; or even headaches&period; This is the reason why it might be a good idea for some to take decongestants with natural supplements like garlic extract&comma; which comes in vegetable capsules&period; Garlic seems to turn red blood cells into cell messenger hydrogen sulfide cells&period; These cells help relax blood vessels&comma; which increases blood flow&period; Of course&comma; this is just one supplement worth considering though there are others&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Mood Leveling<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Sadly&comma; several medications out there can lead to depression&period; This is because some of these common prescriptions are meant to alter hormones&comma; which can have a negative effect on the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain&period; Some of the most common prescriptions to worry about are acne treatment medications&comma; oral contraceptives&comma; high blood pressure drugs&comma; or drugs that help deal with high cholesterol&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">This is the reason why some people have turned to supplements when taking some of these drugs&period; There are several natural supplements that help make sure that the balance of neurotransmitters is not disturbed such as St&period; John&&num;8217&semi;s wort or Valerian&period; These supplements are relatively safe&comma; natural&comma; and help produce neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin&period; These chemicals are anti-depressants and help ensure that the medication the person is taking does not lead to unnecessary depression&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Of course&comma; it is best to know what kinds of side effects a medication might have before choosing supplements&comma; so it might be a good idea to talk to a health care specialist to opt for the right supplements&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;
