NAEM is the National Association of Environmental Medicine - an amazing group of health care providers dedicated to assessing and treating health issues related to environmental exposures (toxicants like heavy metals, plastics, solvents and VOC’s, pesticides/herbicides, mold etc). Research and science based, they continue to look to the experts for ever-evolving info.
I love learning and growing from my colleagues and heroes in this field!!

Happy belated (Canadian) Thanksgiving! I had the privilege of enjoying this view over the weekend and taking one last (cold!) dip in the lake of the season.
I hope you were able to spend time with those you love and find moments of gratitude in your weekend / week:) 💕🍃

It’s a cold gazpacho soup type of day!! Hot one in Winnipeg today (what a contrast to my last post!!) and feeling the body effects of the heat!
Needing electrolytes, steady stream of (cold) fluids and juicy foods throughout the day to get through this heat wave! 🧊💧☀️🧢🍍🍋🥭

If you live in my neck of the woods, this is the scene after a fresh snowfall yesterday - in March! It’s easy to blame winter for our fatigue…but is it totally to blame?! (I mean, a little bit, but all the way?! 😉)

If you’re feeling tired, sluggish, and holding your breath for spring to come - you’re not alone! Maybe it’s not only the winter blues, but some basics or hidden causes to be figured out. 🔎🕵🏻👀

March is a great time to focus on your health - enough vitamin D? B12 or iron? Sleep Rhythm working for you? Hormones at optimal levels? Toxicants overwhelming your system?

We can test and investigate the source of your fatigue together!

Say hello to spring (it will come eventually!) with more zip in your step.

The negative impacts of the spilling and burning 🔥of chemicals found on this train 🚂will likely be revealed little by little in the coming weeks, months…years!?! And unfortunately, many health impacts likely won’t be directly connected (mistakenly!) to this event at all!

Filtering your water 💧effectively is one tool to somewhat protect against events like this - at least for you and your family’s direct health.

The article linked below discusses whether our need for plastics is really enough for the short and long term consequences of making them at all! For the earth’s sake 🌎 including all living things’ health and optimal functioning.

Just over a year ago, this little one joined our family!! (Hence no posts in a year!! 😘)
And now, she’s just as sweet, but a whole lot bigger and funnier!
I’ve had such an amazing year with her, soaking in the baby love as our last little one to join our family. 💕 Time has flown by!!

And this also means I’m returning to practice!!
Starting next week I’ll be seeing both in-office and virtual patients!!

I’m looking forward to re-connecting with those I’ve known well plus meeting new faces on various health journeys! 🙌😊

Arsenic (inorganic) in food, especially rice, has been a concern for a while and I try to inform patients how to reduce the content and their intake (soaking or rinsing or types of rice to purchase with lower levels).
Just read this short article on how parboiling can greatly reduce inorganic arsenic and also retain nutrients! Check it out…will be trying this technique myself….

Rice is one of the most widely consumed foods in the world. It's also very high in arsenic compared to most other foods, absorbing about 10 times as much toxic inorganic arsenic as other cereal crops.

I’ve been seeing several posts and articles lately stating the ‘Myths of Detoxification / Cleanses’. Each time I hope that these myth-busting title grabs will be informed and research based...actually have some myth-busting truths within. Unfortunately I have been disappointed several times. 😕

🥦YES - Detoxification is a complex and beautiful process that our bodies are built to do naturally.
🥦YES - there are many money-grab type programs that use buzz words like ‘cleanse’, or ‘detox’ to hook people in (many of which are targeting our inner-critic’s thin-culture-driven desire to lose weight!)!
🥦NO - there aren’t any single magic pills that will ‘detox’ your body for you…!

🥦BUT - in general, “Cleanses” are exactly that - a focus on Cleansing or ‘cleaning up’ food and lifestyle habits for improved overall health. They have been around for centuries+. Plus there’s a lot of present day research showing evidence of improving health and longevity! Whether it be adjusting food choices, fasting, cleaning out ‘bad’ lifestyle habits or your environment that is doing more harm than good etc….there are so many ways you can Cleanse with Benefits!

🥦And re. DETOXIFICATION...there ARE ways we can improve our innate ability to process and eliminate toxins / toxicants! Whether substances are from our body’s own biochemistry or coming from outside of it - various diet and lifestyle strategies CAN help to better Process (detox), Bind and Eliminate them as needed!
