Over the years, many patients have come through the doors of my New York City naturopathic office with adrenal fatigue. Adrenal fatigue is either the condition which they wish to address or the underlying cause of symptoms that were bothering them.

When it comes to digestive issues such as acid reflux (GERD) or IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), the natural holistic tends to point the finger at food allergies and sensitivities. Patients will often be given food diaries to identify potential food triggers or a script for an IgG food allergy panel (NOT IgE as that will not identify delayed food sensitivities/allergies associated with digestion).

In the past few months since the world went on lockdown, many of us have spent more of our time in worry than ever before. Fear of our financial future, the health of our family or the grim prospect of never being able to find a partner has been keeping many of us up at night.

Recently at the start of my virtual naturopathic appointments, I have been giving my patients space to voice their concerns around COVID and the challenges of staying healthy while being trapped inside. One common concern that has come up besides weight gain, anxiety and insomnia, is headaches.

Earlier this month I had the opportunity to share some startling statistics with the women of Kathy Gelfand’s Empowered Lunch Hour. Believe it 1 out of 8 women will develop a thyroid condition in their lifetime and women are 3-5 times more likely to suffer from thyroid problems than men.

Everything was going great until you enter that dreaded week before your period.  You felt completely fine, rational and sane the week before and now you are feeling like a complete basket case thanks to that three letter word, PMS…. 

That unidentified container covered in blue fur might have colonized some interesting microbes but I wouldn't  advocate you eating it.  The fermented foods I'm talking about can be easily found at you...

Finding the perfect gift for everyone on your list can be stressful especially for those that seem to have everything. This year why not have bit of fun by making your own gifts. Here are some of my h...

Jet lag can dampen the excitement of international travel with its array of uncomfortable symptoms. However, now I am taking out my naturopathic tool kit and preventing jet lag altogether.

Perhaps even before the ball drops, we might be thinking of what we want to do different in the new year for better health.  We have such good intentions but within a month, a week or even a day, we f...

Summer is finally here and that means time for summer vacation and trips to fun destinations. I am someone who prefers to travel light so I put a lot of thought into what I pack. I also want to bring...
