Did you know❓

Hydration is super important for your gut⁉️

If you aren’t getting enough fluid, your body will absorb it from whatever is in your large intestine, causing your stools to become hard and difficult to pass 💩 This affects your gut health‼️

Here is a quick tip❣️

Swap your preservative filled drinks with homemade juices, iced herbal tea, or good ol iced cold water 🙃🥰

What do you know about fat⁉️

Truth is, our bodies need fat for energy, to absorb vitamins, and to protect our heart and brain health. It is the "bad" fat that we need to stay away from, not the "good fat" ✨

"Good" fats are good for your heart, cholesterol, and overall health ❤️

Here are top 7 sources of good fats:
1. Avocado
2. Olive oil
3. Nuts
4. Soy milk
5. Peanut butter
6. Sesame oil
7. Fatty fish like tuna or salmon

Let’s aim for a diet rich in a variety of vegetables, fruit, nuts, and other healthy ingredients 🥰

5 common causes of hypothyroidism that we need to talk about❗️

1. Autoimmunity
This happens often when our immune system which protects our body from invading infections is in complete overdrive 🥹

2. Poor gut health
This can definitely impair thyroid function. The body can't absorb nutrients properly, which leads to imbalance of good and bad bacteria 🦠

3. High stress level
A high stress level causes our body to produce more stress hormones and less thyroid hormones. The body tends to suffer burn out❗️

4. Too much or too little iodine
Iodine is crucial to produce thyroid hormones. Hence, having the right amount of iodine is important 💯

5. Existing medication(s)
Certain medications can interfere with our thyroid gland functioning optimally as well 💊

It is so important to be informed 🤍

One of the biggest myths about naturopathy is that Naturopathic doctors are anti-drug/anti-pharmaceuticals ❌

This is far from true❗️In fact, the ND curriculum includes the study of pharmaceuticals/pharmacology 🤍

As NDs, we study the intersection and efficacy of conventional medications with vitamins and herbs + drug/herb and drug/nutrient interactions❗️

Prescription medications can be part of the healing process 🌿

If you have any questions regarding naturopathic medicine, feel free to DM me 🥰

Happy Saturday beautiful people 💛

Just a gentle reminder for myself and anyone who may need it ❤️‍🩹

Engaging in a self-care routine has been clinically proven to reduce anxiety, depression, stress, improve concentration and energy, minimize frustration and anger, increase happiness, and more❣️

A lot of times my self care involves music, minus the cat 🐱, plus two loud little girls, and a karaoke machine 🤣💖💖

Or by myself in the car 🤍

Both are equally peaceful at the right time 🙂

It’s Thyroid Tuesday🦋

What are some signs you might have that could be attributed to your thyroid not functioning optimally? 👀

▪️ Weight gain
Weight gain is perhaps one of the first noticeable symptoms of hypothyroidism in patients. This is related to a slower than normal metabolism.

▪️ Excessive fatigue
You may feel extremely tired all the time, no matter how much sleep you get.

▪️ Cold intolerance
A slower metabolism from hypothyroidism may also lower your body heat.

▪️ Depression
Inadequate amounts of thyroid hormones can cause changes in your mood.

If you have any of these symptoms, talk to your doctor or contact us❣️We can help 💛
