"As far back as I can recall I have been fascinated with the mystery of human physiology and healthy living. At the age of eight, I would spend time with my cousin who was attending medical school, and found myself drawn to his anatomy books, with all the colourful charts depicting the insides of the human body. It was only a couple of years later that I gave my first speech on healthy living and eating to my schoolmates in biology class. I always found it a natural, logical concept that we are what we eat. Our cells have no other way of acquiring their building molecules but through our food intake. After this early introduction to medicine, it seemed like a natural next step to pursue for my professional career. My intentions with entering the medical profession were to understand how the healthy human body works and to learn all I can to help people prevent disease as well as restore the optimal functioning when something gets out of balance. When I immigrated to Canada, I passed the evaluation exams for the Medical Council of Canada. But instead of proceeding to the required residency I chose Naturopathic College. What prompted this move was an experience I had regarding my daughter's ear infection. She was five years old when she had what was diagnosed as several recurring ear infections. After two courses of antibiotics the infection returned for the third time, and the doctor was going to put her on an even stronger antibiotic. This didn't sit right with me, so I took her to a local naturopathic doctor. After a thorough intake visit he prescribed some gentle remedies and suggested not to use drugs for the fever, instead support her body in it's efforts to fight off the infection. My daughter returned to full health within a few days never to have another ear infection through her entire childhood. The following year I was enrolled in the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. From then on I never again gave my daughter any pharmaceuticals, and the first and only time she saw the inside of Sic

One of the most common conditions women experience during their first trimester of their pregnancy is nausea and vomiting and although it is quite normal, it can cause women a lot of stress and fatigue as well as a loss of a lot of nutrients and fluids.

The cause isn’t fully understood. However, it’s mainly due to the increase – the exponential increase of hormones experienced during this time, mainly HCG, estrogen, and progesterone. These hormones have effects on all other cells in the body as well which can cause some of these gastrointestinal symptoms women feel.

Although nausea can be very frustrating and tiring for women, there are a lot of treatment options to help. Simple things like changing your diet and your lifestyle can make a huge impact, like having regular exercise or ensuring that there’s always food in your stomach. Having an empty stomach can actually make the nauseating symptoms much more severe. So keeping a snack in your purse or in your car will help alleviate some of these symptoms.

Dehydration is common in women with increased nausea and vomiting so it’s really important to find ways to replenish fluid in the body. If you’re not able to keep water down or have trouble taking in water, intravenous vitamin therapy is a great alternative.

With this treatment, your naturopathic doctor can also infuse vitamins directly into your blood stream. Vitamins such as B6 and B12 will help decrease the nauseous feeling as well as increase energy throughout your pregnancy. Again, it depends on the patient. And we often will design very specific treatment plans in terms of supplements and dietary change to help with these symptoms.  Lab tests, of course, play a big role in diagnosing digestive issues. So, we would look at systemic levels of inflammation. We can also measure hydrogen and methane on the breath to determine if there are any microorganisms contributing to these symptoms.  If you’re experiencing digestive issues of any kind and you’d like to learn more about what’s causing these symptoms, see your local naturopathic doctor.
