The long-term effects of corticosteroids can be nasty. Today, I want to share some potential natural alternatives for corticosteroids that you can talk to your doctor about.

If a person takes something like prednisone long-term, they are susceptible to developing corticosteroid resistance. This means that it could stop working over time.

Potential side effects of corticosteroids:
• Cataracts
• Moodiness
• Weight gain
• Cushing’s syndrome
• Diabetes
• Osteoporosis
• Immunosuppression (immunodeficiency)
• Secondary infections

Natural corticosteroid alternatives:
1. Vitamin D3 (at least 20,000 IU)
2. Plant steroids (false unicorn root, licorice root, and fenugreek)
3. Adrenal glandular extract (grass-fed and freeze-dried)
4. TUDCA
