I'm excited to introduce everyone to intern Sophie-Pollon MacLeod who will be working at NutriChem for the month of March. Here we are discussing the education and process of becoming a Naturopath in Ontario.

Ending #NaturopathicMedicineWeek with a talk on anxiety and depression. Going Beyond Anti-depressants, finding the root cause.

Happy Naturopathic Medicine Week! In celebration, NutriChem is hosting facebook lives from all it's NDs all week long! Below I speak about extra testing you should be doing if you suffer from hypothyroidism.

Un gros merci à Julie Blais Comeau pour m'avoir accueilli dans cet épisode de L'Apéro avec Julie "Être en santé; pas la même recette pour tous".

"An interesting statistic in medicine is that there is a huge gap between research and the way doctors practice. It takes an average of 17 years for newly disco...vered research to be integrated into clinical practice."- Susan Bane, MD. I see the truth in this everyday when I hear people being told that diet has no effect on their health condition (even digestive conditions!) despite a strong body of SCIENTIFIC evidence linking gut health with dermatological conditions, autoimmune conditions, and mental health, to name a few. There are too many people who mistakenly believe that naturopathic medicine is the 'unscientific' doppelgänger of conventional medicine when that is SO far from the truth. That's my plug for today. HAPPY CANADA DAY WEEKEND! See more

From a 2017 Cochrane Review: If a women has unmanageable menopausal symptoms hormone therapy is considered an effective treatment for the prevention of postmeno...pausal osteoporosis. I have had so many women experiencing severe menopause symptoms, at risk for osteoporosis, and have just received a prescription for bisphosphonates (Risedronate, Alledronate). These women are perfect candidates for low dose, bio-identical, hormone replacement therapy. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com//abstract;jsessionid=C81D99
