Radio Naturopath Episode 329: Nature Cure, Cannabinomimetics, Chocolate, Intestinal Blockage

This week Ron asked me a bunch more questions. We elaborated on what nature cure actually is; we talked about plants that contain cannabinomimetics, compounds that function similarly to cannabinoids; we reviewed why chocolate is good for you; and talked about why Ron keeps getting an intestinal blockage and how we helped him.

Radio Naturopath Episode 202: Eat and Dress For the Cold, New Testing and Treatment for Cholesterol

We've got the Polar Vortex, so I remind you to get out the fleece, wool, shearling (can be cotton or synthetic! WISH IT WAS HEMP) Cover up and wear those thermal shirts! I can't live without them. Also, some great things to eat and drink, like soup, spicy, and Mexican hot cocoa! That's cocoa with added cinnamon, ginger, and cayenne. I like mine with turmeric too!

I also did a review on cholesterol! What it is, what it does, and some neat new tests that go beyond just what the volume of cholesterol is in your blood. 

Radio Naturopath Episode 162: Interview with Sue Cote: All About Essential Oils!

The brilliant and delightful Sue Cote of Everyday Harvest joined us to show us the joys of essential oils. She taught us about how some companies connect with their herbs in a spiritual way, and tend them with loving care in small batches. She had Ron and me try out some oils and find one that suited each of us. Mine was white sage, since I need relief from dampness, and Ron's was mugwort, because it's a local plant and he's rooted locally and it helps him to be grounded. When she told us about their healing properties, we decided they were well chosen! This is the first Radio Naturopath episode to smell really good. If you focus and inhale, you'll experience it too!
