Are there any natural treatments to treat anxiety?
There are SO many natural options to treat anxiety. I mainly use amino acid therapy to support the body's natural production of neurotransmitters. A great resource and starting place is The Mood Cure by Julia Ross. READ MORE
What are the best natural ways to control diabetes?
Yes, there are natural solutions for helping maintain AND even reverse type 2 diabetes. There is lots of evidence supporting diet and lifestyle changes. For extra support there are also herbs that can be utilized to help stabilize blood sugar. READ MORE
Can diet influence our sleep?
Yes diet can affect your sleep. Partly because your gut makes a lot of your serotonin (feel good neurotransmitter) which then converts to melatonin. The best diet for you may be different than someone else's. Generally though you want a Whole Foods plant based diet-- which really means ditch the crap foods (processed, sugar, alcohol, etc).

How do I manage Crohn's symptoms when my surgery is delayed?
I use a lot of anti-inflammatories and gut healing supplements for my IBD patients. This includes turmeric, glutamine, fish oil, etc. Though if you are going into surgery soon you have to be careful because high dose turmeric and fish oil are blood thinners-- which is not what you want pre-surgery.

How long do the effects of acupuncture last for anxiety?
This depends entirely on the patient, and the severity of symptoms. In the beginning I typically need to see patients more frequently (about once week for 3-6 weeks) then start spacing them out further. I do this because acupuncture is a treatment that builds upon itself, and the initial more frequent treatments allows for the foundation to be built. READ MORE

Honestly, no. I believe that a skilled, adequately trained naturopathic physician is able to optimize your health independent of particular diseases. With that said, you may still need a MD as part of your healthcare team. READ MORE
