Finding the Balance: The Undeniable Advantages of Naturopathy over Conventional Medicine
In a world where conventional medicine often serves as the immediate recourse, naturopathy has emerged as a viable alternative, rooted in natural healing and individualized attention. As a science, naturopathy differs greatly from conventional medicine which relies heavily on prescription...

Can food poisoning be treated at home?
Food poisoning can often be treated at home, especially in mild to moderate cases. Here are some steps you can take to manage the symptoms and support recovery: 1. **Hydration is Key**: The most critical aspect of treating food poisoning is to stay hydrated. Vomiting and diarrhea can lead to significant fluid loss. Drink plenty of water, and consider oral rehydration solutions (ORS) to replenish lost electrolytes. Herbal teas like ginger or peppermint can also help soothe the stomach. 2. **Rest**: Your body needs energy to fight off the infection. Make sure to get plenty of rest and avoid strenuous activities until you feel better. 3. **Dietary Adjustments**: Start with bland, easy-to-digest foods once you feel up to eating. The BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast) is often recommended. Avoid dairy, fatty foods, caffeine, and alcohol until your digestive system has fully recovered. 4. **Natural Remedies**: - **Vitamin C**: Vitamin C to bowel tolerance (the amount that causes stool to begin to loosen), every two hours or at least 4 times daily. - **Activated Charcoal capsules**: Taken at first sign of stomach upset. Then again up to twice more later in the day, if needed. - **Ginger**: Known for its anti-nausea properties, ginger can help alleviate stomach discomfort. You can take ginger tea or chew on a small piece of fresh ginger. - **Peppermint**: Peppermint tea can help soothe an upset stomach and reduce nausea. - **Probiotics**: Probiotic-rich foods like yogurt or kefir (if dairy is tolerated) or supplements can help restore the natural balance of bacteria in your gut. 5. **Over-the-Counter Medications**: Antidiarrheal medications like loperamide (Imodium) can be used, but it's best to consult with a healthcare provider before taking them, especially if you have a high fever or blood in your stool. **When to Seek Medical Attention**: While many cases of food poisoning can be managed at home, it's crucial to seek medical attention if you experience any of the following: - Severe dehydration (dizziness, dry mouth, little to no urination) - High fever (above 101.5°F or 38.6°C) - Prolonged vomiting or diarrhea (lasting more than 3 days) - Blood in vomit or stool - Severe abdominal pain Remember, while home remedies can be effective for mild cases, don't hesitate to consult a healthcare professional if you're unsure or if symptoms worsen.

Is there a way to treat high blood pressure naturally?
Managing high blood pressure (hypertension) naturally is a common concern, and there are several lifestyle changes and natural remedies that can help. However, it's important to note that while these methods can be effective, they should be pursued under the guidance of a healthcare professional, especially if your husband's blood pressure is significantly elevated or if he has other health conditions. Here are some natural approaches to managing high blood pressure: ### 1. **Dietary Changes** - **DASH Diet**: The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet is specifically designed to help reduce blood pressure. It emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and low-fat dairy while reducing salt, red meat, and added sugars. - **Eliminate table salt**: Eliminating processed table salt and replacing with Real Salt or Celtic Sea Salt can improve potassium-to-sodium balance, helping to reduce blood pressure. - **Increase Potassium**: Foods rich in potassium, such as bananas, oranges, orange juice, coconut water, and all types of potatoes, can help balance sodium levels and reduce blood pressure. - **Healthy Fats**: Incorporate sources of healthy fats like coconut oil, butter, and olive oil, and reduce intake of liquid seed oils, polyunsaturated fats and trans fats. ### 2. **Regular Physical Activity** - **Aerobic Exercise**: Activities like walking can help lower blood pressure. Aim for at least 150 minutes of low-intensity aerobic exercise per week. - **Strength Training**: Incorporating strength training exercises at least two days a week can also be beneficial. ### 3. **Weight Management** - **Healthy Weight**: Maintaining a healthy weight or losing weight if overweight can significantly impact blood pressure. Even a small amount of weight loss can help reduce hypertension. ### 4. **Stress Management** - **Bag breathing**: Taking deep breaths into a paper bag can increase carbon dioxide levels which can help reduce stress and lower blood pressure. - **Adequate Sleep**: Ensure that your husband is getting enough quality sleep, as poor sleep can contribute to high blood pressure. ### 5. **Limit Alcohol and Quit Smoking** - **Alcohol**: Limit alcohol consumption to moderate levels—up to one drink per day for women and two drinks per day for men. - **Smoking**: Quitting smoking can improve overall cardiovascular health and help lower blood pressure. ### 6. **Natural Supplements and Herbs** - **Garlic**: Garlic supplements have been shown to help reduce blood pressure. - **Hawthorne Berry**: Hawthorne berry capsules can help lower blood pressure. - **Hibiscus Tea**: Drinking hibiscus tea has been linked to lower blood pressure. - **Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)**: Some studies suggest that CoQ10 supplements can help lower blood pressure. ### 7. **Monitor Blood Pressure at Home** - Regularly monitoring blood pressure at home can help track progress and make necessary adjustments to lifestyle changes. - **Consult a Healthcare Provider**: Before making any significant changes or starting new supplements, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare provider to ensure safety and appropriateness, especially if your husband has other health conditions or is currently on any medication. While medication is sometimes necessary, many people can successfully manage high blood pressure through natural methods. Combining dietary changes, regular exercise, stress management, and possibly natural supplements can make a significant difference. However, it’s essential to work closely with a healthcare provider to create a personalized plan that’s safe and effective. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions or need further guidance!

What is the best way to improve my lactation naturally?
Improving lactation naturally can be a concern for many new mothers, and there are several strategies and natural remedies that can help. Here are some tips and recommendations: ### 1. **Frequent Nursing or Pumping** - **Nurse often:** Breastfeed your baby frequently and on demand. The more you nurse, the more milk your body will produce. - **Pump:** If your baby isn’t nursing well, consider pumping to stimulate milk production. ### 2. **Proper Latch and Positioning** - Ensure that your baby is latching on correctly. A proper latch can significantly impact milk production and flow. - Consider consulting a lactation consultant to help with positioning and latch techniques. ### 3. **Stay Hydrated** - Drink plenty of fluids. Water, herbal teas, and broths can help keep you hydrated, which is essential for maintaining milk supply. ### 4. **Balanced Diet** - **Oats:** Rich in iron and a popular food for boosting milk supply. - **Fenugreek:** Often taken as a supplement or tea; it’s one of the most well-known galactagogues (substances that promote lactation). - **Fennel:** Can be consumed as a vegetable or in tea form; believed to help increase milk production. - **Garlic:** Known for its lactogenic properties, though it can affect the taste of breast milk. - **Brewer's Yeast:** Often used in lactation cookies; it’s rich in B vitamins and protein. - **Fruits and Vegetables:** Apricots, sweet potatoes, peas, green beans, and asparagus are rich in vitamins and minerals that support lactation. ### 5. **Herbal Teas and Supplements** - **Teas and Infusions:** Using herbs such as nettles, raspberry leaf, comfrey and red clover can support your supply of breast milk. Rotating these herbs weekly can help replenish minerals lost from childbirth and the stress of nursing. - **Mother’s Milk Tea:** A blend of herbs like fenugreek, fennel, and blessed thistle that support lactation. - **Blessed Thistle:** Often used in combination with fenugreek to enhance milk production. - **Goat’s Rue:** Another herb that can help increase breast tissue and milk supply. ### 6. **Adequate Rest and Stress Management** - Lack of sleep and high stress can negatively impact milk supply. Try to rest whenever possible and practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or gentle yoga. ### 7. **Skin-to-Skin Contact** - Spend time holding your baby skin-to-skin. This can help stimulate the hormones that promote milk production. ### 8. **Avoid Certain Substances** - Avoid smoking, excessive caffeine, and alcohol as these can affect milk production. ### 9. **Monitor Baby’s Needs** - Pay attention to your baby’s hunger cues and growth patterns. Sometimes, perceived low milk supply is not an actual problem, but rather a normal variation in feeding patterns. Every mother and baby pair is unique, and what works for one may not work for another. It’s important to be patient and persistent. If you have concerns about your milk supply or your baby’s growth, consult with a healthcare provider or lactation consultant for personalized advice and support. READ MORE
I have a typical sinus allergy. How can naturopathy help?
Absolutely, naturopathic medicine can offer several approaches to help manage and alleviate sinus allergies caused by pollen. Naturopathic medicine focuses on supporting the body's natural healing processes, and there are multiple strategies that can be effective for sinus allergies: 1. **Dietary Adjustments:** Certain foods can either exacerbate or alleviate allergy symptoms. For example, anti-inflammatory foods like leafy greens, berries, and fatty fish can help reduce overall inflammation in the body. Conversely, dairy and processed foods might worsen mucus production and should be limited. 2. **Herbal Remedies:** Herbs such as butterbur, stinging nettle, and quercetin have been shown to help reduce allergy symptoms. These can be taken in various forms, including teas, capsules, or tinctures. 3. **Supplements:** Probiotics can help balance the immune system, potentially reducing the severity of allergic reactions. Vitamin C, MSM and bromelain are also beneficial for their anti-inflammatory and antihistamine properties. 4. **Lifestyle Modifications:** Regular exercise, adequate sleep, and stress management techniques such as yoga or meditation can strengthen your immune system and reduce the severity of allergic reactions. 5. **Environmental Controls:** Minimizing exposure to pollen by keeping windows closed during high pollen seasons, using air purifiers, and showering after being outdoors can significantly reduce symptoms. 6. **Hydration:** Staying well-hydrated helps thin mucus, making it easier to expel and reducing sinus congestion. In addition to these naturopathic strategies, I would like to offer you my free digestion course. This course is designed to help you understand your own bio-individuality and identify what works best for your unique body. Improving your digestive health can have a profound impact on your overall immune function, potentially reducing the severity of your allergies. A parasympathetic imbalance can also cause you to be more sensitive to allergens. This course will teach you how to improve a parasympathetic imbalance to reduce your body's allergic response. **Course Details:** - **Title:** 4 Week Digestive Jumpstart - **Content:** The course covers topics such as identifying food sensitivities, optimizing gut health, and personalizing your diet and supplements to support your immune system. - **Benefits:** By understanding your bio-individuality, you can make more informed choices about your diet and lifestyle, which may help in managing your sinus allergies more effectively.

Is there a natural medicine for treating migraines?
Certainly! When discussing natural remedies for migraines, it's important to emphasize that treatments can vary in effectiveness from person to person. Here are some natural options that might help in managing migraines: 1. **Magnesium**: Magnesium deficiency is linked to migraines. Taking a magnesium supplement or increasing magnesium-rich foods like spinach, almonds, and avocados may help. 2. **Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)**: Some studies suggest that high doses of riboflavin may reduce the frequency of migraines. 3. **Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)**: This antioxidant has been shown in some studies to reduce the frequency and severity of migraines. 4. **Butterbur and Feverfew**: Herbal supplements like butterbur and feverfew have been traditionally used to prevent migraines. However, it's crucial to use these under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as they can have side effects and interact with other medications. 5. **Essential Oils**: Peppermint and lavender essential oils are often used for headache relief. Applying diluted peppermint oil to the temples or inhaling lavender oil may provide some relief. 6. **Hydration**: Dehydration can trigger migraines, so maintaining adequate hydration is essential. 7. **Dietary Changes**: Identifying and avoiding food triggers can be very effective. Common triggers include caffeine, alcohol, aged cheeses, and processed meats. 8. **Stress Management**: Techniques like pilates, and deep-breathing exercises can help manage stress, which is a common migraine trigger. 10. **Regular Sleep Schedule**: Maintaining a consistent sleep routine can help prevent migraines. Additionally, I would like to offer you my free digestion course called **The 4 Week Digestive Jumpstart Course**. This course is designed to help you understand your own bio-individuality and learn what dietary and lifestyle changes might work best for you. Improving your digestive health can often have a positive impact on overall well-being, including the frequency and severity of migraines. Remember, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new treatment, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.

I am on a naturopathic weight loss program and passing a lot of gas. Is it normal?
Passing gas is a common side effect when making significant changes to your diet, especially when incorporating new foods and herbs. This can happen for several reasons: 1. **Dietary Changes:** Introducing new foods, particularly high-fiber foods, can increase gas production as your digestive system adjusts. Reduce starchy foods and add extra fruits or even stewed fruits like pear or apple which are easier to digest. 2. **Herbs and Supplements:** Some natural herbs and supplements can also cause increased gas as they may alter your gut flora or have a mild laxative effect. 3. **Digestive Adjustment:** Your digestive system might need some time to adapt to the new regimen, which can result in temporary bloating and gas. **Recommendations:** 1. **Monitor Your Diet:** Keep a food diary to track which foods or herbs might be contributing to increased gas. This can help identify specific triggers. 2. **Hydration:** Ensure you are drinking plenty of water, which can aid digestion and reduce bloating. 3. **Probiotics:** Consider incorporating probiotic-rich foods or supplements to support healthy gut flora. 4. **Eat Slowly:** Eating too quickly can cause you to swallow air, leading to increased gas. Try to eat slowly and chew your food thoroughly. **Additional Resource:** To help you further understand your digestive health and how it relates to your overall wellness, I would like to offer you access to my free Digestive Jumpstart course. This course is designed to help you understand your bio-individuality, which means learning what works best for your unique body. It covers various aspects of digestion and can provide insights into managing symptoms like gas and improving conditions such as allergies. Would you be interested in enrolling in this course? It could provide you with valuable tools and knowledge to optimize your digestive health and support your weight loss journey.

My father has been diagnosed with IBD. Do you think naturopathic treatment may help him?
Thank you for reaching out with your question about your father's condition. Ulcerative colitis (UC) can be challenging to manage, especially when adverse reactions to medications occur. Naturopathic treatments can sometimes offer supportive strategies that may help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being. Here are some points to consider: 1. **Diet and Nutrition:** Naturopathic medicine often emphasizes the importance of diet. An anti-inflammatory diet, rich in bone broth, gelatin, and collagen; reducing starchy foods and increasing easy-to-digest simple carbs such as orange juice, fresh fruits, and stewed fruits. Specific dietary adjustments tailored to your father's needs can be beneficial. 2. **Supplements and Herbal Remedies:** Certain supplements, such as probiotics, ginger or peppermint teas, and specific herbal remedies, may help manage UC symptoms. However, it's essential to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new supplements, especially considering your father's age and medication history. 3. **Lifestyle Modifications:** Stress reduction techniques, such as pilates, stretching, and gentle exercise like walking, can be helpful. Stress is known to exacerbate UC symptoms, so finding effective ways to manage it can be crucial. 4. **Hydration:** Ensuring adequate hydration is vital, especially since UC can lead to dehydration. Encourage your father to drink plenty of water and consider electrolyte solutions if necessary. 5. **Professional Guidance:** Consulting with a naturopathic doctor (ND) who has experience with inflammatory bowel disease can provide a personalized approach. An ND can work alongside your father's current healthcare team to create a comprehensive plan. In addition to these recommendations, I would like to offer you access to my free digestion course, "The 4 Week Digestive Jumpstart Course." This course is designed to help individuals understand their own bio-individuality and learn what dietary and lifestyle changes may work best for them. While it is not a substitute for professional medical advice, it can provide valuable insights and strategies to support digestive health. See the link below to request access. If you decide to explore naturopathic treatments, please ensure that any new approach is discussed with your father's healthcare provider to avoid any potential interactions with his current treatments.

Is there a naturopathic treatment for spondylitis?
Spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the spine, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. While conventional treatments such as medications and physical therapy can help manage symptoms, many people are turning to natural remedies to alleviate their pain and improve their overall quality of life. As a bio-individuality coach and natural medicine practitioner, I believe that each person's body is unique and has its innate ability to heal itself. By understanding your body's specific needs and imbalances, you can take steps to support your body's natural healing processes and improve your overall health. READ MORE
Is there a treatment in naturopathy for a diabetic foot?
Dear Patient, I understand how troublesome ulcers can be. Hopefully, I can shed some light on something that may help you to boost your body's ability to heal itself. Diabetic foot ulcers are a common complication of diabetes that can lead to serious health issues if left untreated. Diabetic foot ulcers typically develop as a result of poor circulation, nerve damage (neuropathy), and reduced immune function. Here are some remedies you may find helpful: Raw Honey: Applied topically, raw honey possesses antibacterial properties and can promote wound healing. Sugar: Surprisingly, granulated sugar can also be used as a topical treatment. Its osmotic effect helps draw out excess moisture from the wound and inhibits bacterial growth. Dietary Changes: Incorporating more whole, unprocessed foods into your diet, such as fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins, can provide essential nutrients and support overall healing and immunity. Ozonated Olive Oil: This alternative therapy involves infusing olive oil with ozone gas, which exhibits antimicrobial and healing properties. Homeopathic Cell Salts: Certain homeopathic remedies, such as Calc phos and Silicea, promote tissue regeneration and enhance the body's healing ability. Vitamins and Minerals Vitamins and minerals also play a crucial role in overall health and can also contribute to the healing of diabetic foot ulcers. Here is how Vitamins and Minerals can help: Vitamin C: This vitamin is essential for collagen formation, which is crucial for wound healing. Vitamin E: Vitamin E is known for its antioxidant properties, which can help reduce inflammation and promote tissue repair. Zinc: Zinc is involved in various enzymatic reactions that are important for wound healing. Vitamin A: This vitamin plays a role in cell growth and differentiation, making it important for wound healing. Hair Tissue Mineral Test (HTMA) A hair tissue mineral test is a valuable tool that can provide crucial insights into an individual's nutritional deficiencies and assist in determining the right supplements needed to address them. By analyzing the mineral content in the hair, this test can identify any imbalances or deficiencies in essential minerals such as magnesium, calcium, zinc, and others. I've created a webpage that goes into a bit more detail that may be of interest to you. You can find it here: https://www.fxremedies.com/diabetic-foot-ulcers.html. I sincerely hope you find the healing you seek. If I can be of further assistance, please let me know.

Hair shedding
Hair shedding can be a result of a number of imbalances, so its hard to say without knowing more about your body's physiology. Catabolic imbalances, poor protein assimilation and mineral imbalances can all lead to hair loss and excess shedding. I help patients understand their physiology by teaching them to run their own simple tests at home. An inexpensive HTMA hair analysis can also give us insight as to what imbalances to focus on to improve symptoms and overall health. I make recommendations for foods and supplements that can help bring their body back into balance. Digestion and absorption of nutrients can be a big factor which leads to a number of symptoms and affects many other systems of the body. With your history of IBS, digestion is likely a factor. If you would like, I can send you a free digestive jumpstart course that can walk you through some simple steps to get you started. Let me know if you are interested or if you have any questions. Sincerely, Jennifer Smith, NMP, CHN, FBCC READ MORE
How much sunlight do we need?
There is an app called D Minder on iPhone that provides a timer with approximate dosages of vitamin D based on latitude of where you live. It also helps you figure out how much vitamin D you need based on test results to obtain the optimal amount of vitamin D. Here is a link to download the app. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/d-minder-pro/id547102495 READ MORE
What are the naturopathic remedies for my sleep disturbances?
Many times I see in patients that a catabolic imbalance can cause poor sleep patterns. It’s possible that an electrolyte deficiency or sympathetic imbalance may be the cause of insomnia. There are supplements that can help, but we would need to determine which would be appropriate based on your body chemistry. The wrong supplement could result in a worsening of symptoms. READ MORE
What homeopathic treatments are there for a sore throat?
I like to use homeopathic cell salts for acute issues like colds and sore throats. Ferrum Phos 6x is good at the onset of sore throat and cold symptoms. Kali Mur 6x can be useful with sore throats to help lubricate the tissues and reduce lymph gland swelling and inflammation caused by the condition. You can take 1 tablet every 15 minutes when symptoms are severe and then decrease frequency to 1 tablet, 3 times daily until symptoms resolve. READ MORE
Are there any natural methods to fix diarrhea?
Diarrhea frequently has to do with a lack of bile or the bile is too thick to move properly. When bile is too thick, it will not drop on the acidic product leaving your stomach which will cause it to be moved through your small intestine and colon too quickly, leading to diarrhea and nutritional deficiencies after a time. Swedish bitters prior to a meal can help to thin the bile. Here are some foods that can assist with thinning the bile: Artichoke leaf Turmeric Ginger Black pepper Dandelion root tea Burdock root Cilantro Peppermint Green tea Black tea Chamomile Fenugreek Milk thistle READ MORE
Can migraine be fixed?
Migraines can have different root causes, many of which can be managed and corrected nutritionally. Some causes may be from toxic burden on the bowel, kidneys or liver; tension headaches, allergic headaches related to food and environmental allergies, chronic sinus issues, blood sugar imbalances, or a copper imbalance. I help my patients get to the root cause of their migraines by running a screening test called hair mineral analysis which helps us determine how to assist the body in rebalancing the system and reduce the migraine pain. READ MORE
What natural treatments are there for high blood pressure?
Most hypertension is considered to be ‘essential’, meaning the direct cause is unknown. Doctors frequently recommend low salt diets, but more often it is not a matter of too much sodium, rather it is a result of not enough potassium in the diet. Other causes can be related to kidney problems, hardening of the arteries, fast oxidation, plaque formation, heavy metals, or an imbalance of calcium, magnesium and/or potassium. I help my patients get to the root of their high blood pressure through a screening test called hair mineral analysis. This test can help us determine the root cause and provide a path to help rebalance the system. READ MORE
What are the natural treatments for bronchitis?
I like to use homeopathic cell salts for acute issues like bronchitis. Ferrum Phos 6x is good at the onset of infection and helps to boost immune defenses. Kali Mur 6x can be useful with bronchitis to help lubricate the lungs and discharge mucus. It also helps reduce lymph gland swelling and inflammation caused by the condition. You can take 1 tablet every 15 minutes when symptoms are severe and then decrease frequency to 1 tablet, 3 times daily until symptoms resolve. READ MORE
Can you fix muscle tightness?
Muscle tightness and cramps are associated with either low calcium and or magnesium, low, sodium and potassium levels, or toxic metals. I run a hair mineral analysis to determine the underlying cause of muscle tightness. This helps us determine a course of action to help my patients improve their symptoms through nutritional balancing. READ MORE
How can I get rid of muscle spasms?
Muscle spasms and cramps are associated with either low calcium and or magnesium, low, sodium and potassium levels, or toxic metals.
