Clinical Insight: Antibiotics: do they cause weight gain and bloating? How to balance side effects | Ep. 249


Listen Later

Have you ever taken antibiotics, only to feel “off” weeks later—bloating, weight gain, food sensitivities, or just not quite yourself?

In this powerful clinical insight episode of The Health Made Simple Show, Dr. Bart breaks down the hidden side effects of antibiotics that most people (and even doctors) overlook. He shares the real story of a patient whose gut health spiraled after two rounds of antibiotics—and explains exactly how they got her digestion, weight, and overall health back on track.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

✔️ Why antibiotics can disrupt your gut for months ✔️ How this disruption leads to bloating, cravings, and weight gain ✔️ The critical bacteria most people are missing (and why it matters) ✔️ Why side effects might not show up until 6–8 weeks after treatment ✔️ How to repair your microbiome and feel like yourself again

If you’ve ever wondered why your body changed after taking antibiotics—or if you want to protect your gut before your next round—this episode is a must-watch.

🎧 Listen now and give your body the tools it needs to recover. 🎧
