Radio Naturopath Episode 356: Choice, Food Intolerances, Toenail Fungus!

Today I talked about Canada Day, since Canada is the first place I practiced naturopathic medicine! Then I moved on to talk about my views on choice in light of the landmark overturning of Roe vs. Wade on Friday, June, 24, 2022. For me, it's about bodily autonomy and the safety and health of pregnant people. When access to abortion is denied, it negatively affects the health of pregnant people in many ways. I also talked about ways to help your toenail fungus, a great summer topic! And how to approach your food intolerances. Being a detective is the best plan!

Radio Naturopath Episode 149: Melatonin, Meningitis, Forskolin and Weight Loss, Eat the Peel, More Cold and Flu Prevention

This week was kind of a hodgepodge. We answered some listener's questions and went down roads they took us. Is sublingual melatonin helpful for sleep? How is meningitis spread? If you drop a forskolin capsule in organic apple cider vinegar, will it help you lose weight? Can you eat orange and banana peels, and are they good for you? Turns out, orange peels are great for reducing respiratory inflammation, and bananas are nutritional powerhouses, full of fiber, vitamins B12 and B6, plus potassium and magnesium! Plus once again, we review cold and flu prevention and treatment. Alwyas a great topic this time of year!
