SSRIs: The Nutrient Gap

Are your antidepressants leaving you feeling physically drained? In this episode, Joey DiMatteo (PharmD) leads an evidence-based discussion on how SSRIs often cause hidden nutrient deficiencies that can hinder your mental health progress and reduce the effectiveness of the antidepressants. We break down the research and science behind drug-induced nutrient depletion, the specific vitamins you are likely missing, and the professional-grade solutions to restore your well-being.  Additionally, Joey & Dante DiMatteo (PharmD) discuss the groundbreaking shift in pediatric guidelines: why early peanut introduction is the key to ending the peanut allergy epidemic. These new guidelines have already caused a 43% drop in childhood peanut allergies! Get the clarity you need from trusted medical experts who work on the front lines of pharmacy every day.
