🦠The gut microbiome is full of good bacteria that help with digestion, immune support, and even mood regulation.

💊While antibiotics can be lifesavers when it comes to fighting bacterial infections, they can also wreak havoc on our gut health. This is because they indiscriminately wipe out both the good and bad bacteria in the gut, leaving your child’s tummy out of balance.

But don’t worry parents! There are ways to help your little one’s gut bounce back—just scroll through this post for details. 🧐

It’s always important to discuss the need for antibiotics with your healthcare provider to understand the risks/benefits and consider if there are alternative treatment options.

❤️ At Virtual Pediatrics, we offer a holistic approach to pediatric sick care and can guide you on natural approaches to support your child’s well being.
