Woman taking oral contraceptives in most cases are unaware that there would be any serious side effects. This is a common medication that is used regularly and therefore many people assume it to be safe with no side effects. This is NOT an accurate assumption. Oral birth control causes many issues with the immune system, […]
It’s getting cooler outside which can, for some, make you crave hot drinks throughout the day. If you’re going to drink something hot, it has to taste good … but also, why not make it medicinal? As a holistic doctor, I am always looking for ways to help people upgrade their health practices without sacrificing […]
We have talked about the keto diet before, but the fad persists, so I wanted to take some time to dive into this a bit deeper. An extremely high fat, low carbohydrate diet, often referred to as the “keto diet” has taken the nation by storm. Countless people are claiming that its helped them lose […]
In light of everything that has gone on around the world in the past 8 months, I’d like to talk about vitamin C. The sales of this supplement have gone through the roof in the US and elsewhere. Everyone is taking it! But how does vitamin C work? Should you take it all the time? […]

Let’s unpack this issue… Many people react with varying degrees to certain foods. The general umbrella for many of these reactions is referred to as […]
Seriously, no oil? Not even coconut or olive oil? I know. I was sad too at first. But again, we have to look at the evidence. The use of oils in cooking/food prep has become a big controversy lately. For me, I don’t care so much about the oil-free “movement” per se as I do […]
This isn’t my typical post about alternative healthcare… I want to raise awareness about the lack of healthcare for minorities and share some information that you may not be aware of. While this may impact some more than others, as loving and conscious people who need to look out and care for each other, regardless […]
The United States healthcare system (and many others in the world) are built upon the pathogenic paradigm. The term “healthcare” is a bit of a misnomer to begin with. It implies that this system exists to care for the health of its citizens, but if you take a brief glance around in any public place, […]
For the context of this discussion, I am referring to a primarily whole food vegan diet. I am well aware and as a Naturopath, I am NOT in support of the way many people refer to a vegan diet that is free of animal products but loaded with oils, fake meat and processed foods like […]
A holistic health care colleague of mine just sent me this article that talks about how MUFAs (monounsaturated fatty acids/MCTs (medium chain triglycerides)) can help in type 2 diabetes (among other things).1 The article is in the reference list below if you want to read the entire thing. It’s a good study and I like […]
