Are Biologic Drugs BAD For You? (OPINION) | Jennifer Fugo

Have you ever wondered if biologic drugs are bad for you?

It’s a question that I frequently answer on my Instagram profile, but I also find that clients share similar concerns. So I figured that I’d take this moment to explain my feelings on biologic drugs which is not a black + white answer.

I hope that my approach is helpful on your journey so that you can ultimately decide what is best for you.

SHOW NOTES:
• My non-medical practitioner opinion about whether biologic drugs are bad for you
• My personal belief system about informed consent (and where it came from)
• A simple analogy to understand how biologic drugs work
• Do biologic drugs cure your condition?
• Suggested steps before agreeing to a biologic (or any other type of serious medication)
• Can you still do root cause work if you’re taking a biologic?
