Just found out about this website and wanted to share. Mytavin.com is a research tool and website where you can identify the nutritional impacts of drugs you may take.
For example, I typed in the drug named omeprazole, which my husband took for years for heartburn and acid reflux. Actually, I didn’t have to type it because it is such a widely-used drug, there’s a built-in button for it…
Then click “Find Deficiencies,” and the following nutrients are shown:
- Iron
- Magnesium
- Vitamin B12
- Zinc
Depletion or poor absorption of any of these nutrients will cause other health issues – some quite serious!
This website is valuable because it could change your trajectory.
A patient or their doctor COULD use this info to supplement the depleted nutrients and fix a situation.
They could also use it to understand side effects, and realize what is causing them …and fix the nutritional deficit rather than prescribing another medication which would of course have other side effects, and cause other nutritional deficiencies.
Ideally, a person would change their diet to avoid the reflux and stop taking the meds, like my hubby did. ❤️
There are many “read more” opportunities on the site, and research is linked. Check it out!
