A Spring Detox!
We live in a toxic world. Currently, our bodies are taking in more toxins than we are able to convert and remove. Unfortunately, this can lead to a number of health-related concerns and conditions. In your visit with a Naturopathic Doctor you will learn about: the multiple health benefits associated with regular detoxification, dietary modifications that are important for cleansing, lifestyle changes that address and augment elimination, and nutritional, herbal or homeopathic supplements that may benefit a detoxification program.
Have you tried Coconut Oil yet?
The word is out about coconut oil and there is plenty of good news! Current research tells us that coconut oil may help with weight loss, increase energy, improve insulin sensitivity, and even possibly help in the management of epilepsy. Researchers have found that it reduces body fat mass by inhibiting fat-generating genes; it also increases whole body metabolic rate. As a medium chain fatty acid, it is easily digested and metabolized by the body. This fast rate of metabolism leads to greater energy expenditure – this results in less body weight gain and a decrease in size of fat deposits after several months of consumption. Coconut oil can be a valuable component of a wide-ranging weight management program. Use it cooking (as a substitute for butter, oils), to address obesity, improve athletic performance, treat seizure disorders, and even possibly help with prostate health!
