Recovering from Antibiotics

Recovering from Antibiotics

Author: Leanne Vogel September 23, 2025 Duration: 47:11

Antibiotics can save lives… but they can also wipe out your gut. In this episode, I walk you through a functional medicine roadmap for recovery: the first steps to take after antibiotics, how to rebuild your microbiome with probiotics, prebiotics, and fermented foods, and the nutrients that strengthen your gut lining. You'll also learn what to do if diarrhea lingers, and how to set realistic expectations for recovery. It's common for gut healing to take six months to a year. This episode is your guide to restoring balance and resilience after antibiotics.
