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.

We could have never imagine that our whole world would change in just 2 weeks. It can be so easy now that we are staying indoors to fall out of our healthy routine and allow habits that might not serve us to creep in.

For some of us spending all day at home is a dream come true, but for the overwhelming remainder it is literally our worse nightmare (this naturopath included). As a New Yorker I am blessed with an abundance of things to do outside of my tiny box called an apartment.

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.

In December, Tom Fuld interviewed me for his podcast series,"The Heart of Healing...The Healer's Journey."  We spent a delightful afternoon chatting about my journey to becoming a naturopath...
