Holistic Health with Dr. Heather Heck
Hello, I'm Dr. Heather Heck and I'm a little unique in that I hold credentials in both eastern and western medicine. I actually just closed my physical practice and now I want to share all of my knowledge and real-life experiences with you.
Not only that, but I'm also a mother and I have had so many mom-patients who just want to know how to best create a healthy environment for their kids. I plan to share all the ways I try and do this in my own home. My goal is to help YOU find the good, better, and best options in your whole body health through education and making sure you're aware of all of the holistic options you have. I am hoping this podcast is the start of many conversations and that I can positively impact your life, even if just by listening! Follow-me: https://linktr.ee/doctorheck

Holistic Health with Dr. Heather Heck: Drug-induced Nutrient Depletion
Do you have health + wellness questions? Don't worry; I've got you! Text me.
When your doctor prescribes a medication, do they also spend time telling you all of the side effects and how you can also combat those? My guess is no...
Today, we’re spending time discussing various over the counter and prescribed medications - which do have a time and place - and how they can deplete the body of various nutrients. For examples, Prilosec or Omeprazole deplete the body of calcium. Women on birth control are often depleted of folic acid and B vitamins. Antibiotics deplete the body of magnesium. Knowing all of this can help us uncover how to combat those depletions because, over time, these nutrient depletions can contribute to chronic disease. It’s very good insight and, hopefully, will help you marry traditional and holistic health and wellness practices so you can live your good, better, and best life.
