Dietary modifications are a corner stone of Naturopathic Medicine. The food you eat affects you in many ways, making it important to choose the foods that are best for your body. However, it can be very confusing to sift through dietary facts, fads and fictions. That’s where I come in. So if you are ready to make subtle changes or are ready to radically change your diet due to a chronic condition, I am here to help.
Homeopathic Immune Boosters are beneficial any time of year but especially during the cold and flu season. If sick they will help you recover faster, taken as a preventative measure the benefits last approximately 8 weeks. See more info on my events page about the yearly Naturopathic Cold and Flu Clinic.

Testing- The answers are just a blood test away. Local labs will send your blood draw sample to Rocky Mountain Analytical in Calgary. I can help you chose the best panel for you, ranging from 120-200 different foods. You will receive a detailed report showing the degree of sensitivity and number of antibodies produced to each individual food. I can then help you design the appropriate diet based on your individual sensitivities to ensure you receive the correct balance of nutrients you need for optimal health.
