I’m reminded of a quote by Hippocrates

Do you (or does your doctor) know that many prescription medications often create nutritional deficiencies?

Anti-inflammatories cause deficiencies in
calcium
vitamin D
magnesium
zinc
vitamin C
vitamins B6 and B12
folic acid
selenium
chromium

Aspirin causes low levels of
vitamin C
calcium
folic acid
iron
vitamin B5.

Statins can cause low levels of
CoQ10
vitamins B6 and B1
zinc

ACE inhibitors are associated with decreased zinc. Beta blockers also decrease levels of CoQ10. The list goes on and on. So when trying to put out a fire, make sure you're not using gasoline...
