Herbal supplements can strongly influence the gut microbiome. Their effects depend on factors such as dosage, frequency, and individual gut composition. Some may support gut health, while others could disrupt microbial balance.
As with prescription medications, herbal treatments should be used with caution and under the guidance of a practitioner. If you are actively working on improving your gut health, consulting a herbalist or a microbiome-specializing practitioner can help assess the potential risks and benefits before introducing these herbs.
