Diarrhea Revisited

Diarrhea Revisited

This isn't a sexy topic but darn it, someone has to talk about it! We naturopathic doctors don't shy away from sh*t talk.  In fact, we encourage it! We're rereleasing this episode because there's a slew of newer oral agents that cause loose stool and/or diarrhea (Verzenio, we’re looking at you!). Listen in as Tina and Leah help you understand how it happens and what you can do about it.
