We welcome back Christian Jenski, MD, Board Certified Functional Medicine Specialist, to discuss the common medications consumed by the American public and the potential harmful results if chronically prescribed without medical monitoring. Dr. Jenski offers vast amounts of information about Statins, Metformin, Steroids, and PPI’s or over the counter acid reducers, and the possible damage with chronic use. Dr. Jenski also discusses the nutrients and supplements necessary to combat side effects and the medical tests and labs to request from you medical provider to help monitor the body’s response. This is only Part I of an ongoing conversation!
