You are intrigued by the human body?
Does it fascinate you and you would like to know a little more about the functioning of your body?
You are in the right place!
Here you will find anecdotes, fun facts and advice based on my experience in medicine (Since I am in my 4th year of medicine studies)
Starting off, my name is Deborah, I am a belgian medicine student. And I'm going to try to make you discover things that few doctors will tell you.
Let's start with our first discovery right now !
Did you know that drinking pamplemousse juice at the same time as your medications will cancel out the effects.
This phenomen takes place because pamplemousse juice contains particules that blocks the absorption channels of your cells. On top of that the pamplemousse particules can accentuate the side effects of the drug and even worse : it might worsen the disease which in some cases can lead to death!
So be careful if you have to take drugs, do not drink grapefruit juice for the duration of your treatment.
FYI these are observed with many types of drugs, anti-depressants, anti-infectives, anti-cancer drugs, cardiovascular drugs or gastrointestinal system, etc.
I hope it was interesting and you learned something today

Welcome to the jungle, try and follow some people if you can.. it will get you going faster.
A lot of the replies you get initially on your post will be automated ones. This one is not.
I try and find promising people from time to time, at least you are responding to the comments, many don't and that's a factor for me.
Thank you and if you have any more tips for me you can always share them with me
Mine is not automated either, hahahah
LOL.., I know..else I wouldn't be replying to to now!
I knew you would hahah
I wrote these some time ago, they may help you a little.

Welcome! Great to some doctors out here 🤙
Unfortunately I discovered the last months the fact about the grapefruit juice and taking pills... 😂 I read it on the leaflet from some pills I did have to take from my general practioner. (yes I certainly read the leaflet).
Where are you studying meds in Belgium? Leuven?
Anyhow looking forward to your new post always ready to learn some new stuff.
No I study in Brussels ;-) Ho that's cool !
I'll post my next article tomorrow.
Ik heb gezien dat je uit Nederland komt. Ik denk dat het bij jullie ook een hittegolf is ! Awel mijn article van morgen zal het daar over hebben
Tot morgen !
Great article! I will follow for sure.
Not taking any drug but wondering if doctors do tell you not to drink grapefruit? Seems a little odd to me. Thanks for telling us anyways.
Thank you ! During my internships I've never see any doctors warn their patients about this.
Welcome to Steemit.
There's already some medicine stuff on Steemit (check out @air-clinic and steemstem.io) end even more "natural medicine" stuff (including anti-vaccination conspirationalists).
Last year, I have written some emergency medicine stuff too.
Also, it's nice to have more young Europeans on Steemit. Maybe you can make it to a meetup in Aachen, Germany, one day?
@detlev is the host.
Welcome on Steem and best greetings from Austria!
I am also in the healthcare industry, doing clinical studies, and occasionally write about health & science topics.
I love natural remedies and love your smile and good advice here.
Thank you !

I love natural
Remedies and love your smile
And good advice here.

Interesting your proposal, I will be attentive to your next publications.

Thank you very much !
Well i just learnt something. Not that I have any need of serious meds at the moment, but cheers and welcome!
Nice to hear that. I don't no if there's a heat wave in UK too but my next post will be about coping with it.
Not at the moment unfortunately but maybe one headed later this week!

I doubt you find many people who take their meds with grapefruit juice. Most don't even like that fruit.
How about other juices?
Welcome on steem and have fun.
Posted using Partiko Android
It applies too if you drink that juice within 2 hours (approx., maybe more) after taking your medicine.
Grapefruit juice is nice in cocktails and mixed with water.
Good to know, so better grapefruit juice during medication times.
