Let's talk FIBER. Fiber does far more than just help with bowel movements. It supports the microbiome, stool consistency, cholesterol, blood sugar regulation, and colon health. In many ways, it is one of the most foundational nutrients for the digestive system. So in a world where everyone is focused on “high protein”, we need to shift that perspective to also include “high fiber”.

Learn why fiber is essential for gut health, digestion, and long-term disease prevention. This article explains soluble vs insoluble fiber, food sources, psyllium supplementation, and how fiber supports the microbiome, reduces IBS and SIBO risk, and is linked to lower colon cancer risk. Includes pra

We've all been there, where we are in the sunscreen aisle and just so unsure of what to buy. We think about all the things: mineral vs. chemical, endocrine disruptors, white cast, cost, kid friendly, ocean friendly, etc. There's a lot of information to sift through! But when it comes to sun protection, what matters most is that we use it! Take a peek at my recent article where I go over all of those confusing things to help you make an easier decision.

A realistic and practical guide to staying safe in the sun

One thing about me is that I am a slow decorator who needs to try many different arrangements. I made some changes to my office over the last few weeks, and I am sure there will be more to come. I am still on the look out for some round rugs to place under my desk and in my "kid zone".

Other big changes include having neighbors! My side of the building is slowly filling up, which has felt really good. There is also more to come for the Kinetic Wellness Center, so be sure to stay tuned :)

Fertility treatments like IUI and IVF bring a different kind of intensity. There are timelines, protocols, appointments, monitoring, medications, and decisions that move quickly, often layered on top of months or years of trying. And while these treatments are powerful, they can also feel overwhelming.

Naturopathic care during this phase isn’t about replacing treatment. It’s about supporting your body through it.

There’s a subtle shift that can happen when trying to conceive takes longer than expected. At first, there’s openness and excitement. There is this sense of “we’ll see what happens”. But then months pass, and that experience often becomes more emotionally loaded. Maybe you’ve started tracking, or now you are peeing on ovulation strips in order to time everything perfectly.

This is the phase where many people start asking: what is wrong, and what do we actually do next?

There’s a quiet window before trying to conceive that often gets overlooked. It’s the space where you’re thinking about it. Maybe talking about it, maybe not. You aren’t quite “trying” yet. And while it can feel early, this is actually one of the most meaningful times to support fertility.

In many ways, this is where the work begins.

Read along for part one of my three part fertility series!!

The diagnosis of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is often the label we give when disease has been ruled out, but that label doesn’t explain why the symptoms are happening. It also doesn’t give patients a clear path forward in treatment. In the naturopathic and functional medicine world, our goal is to take a multifaceted approach so you do not have to live with these symptoms forever.
