” Go Back to Food Base”

March 19, 2020 By Dr. Heather

Well, most of the good reputable supplements companies have sold out of most of their supplements. But please do not get too concerned because I am sure they are working super hard to get their vitamin C and immune support back on the shelves. If you need help finding supplements, please contact me.

But in the meantime,

” Let food be your medicine and medicine your food.”

I was just speaking with a colleague ( she said, ” going back to food base and it works!”) and we both noticed how the produce section of the markets is still full of lots of colorful foods. And this color is what gives us the nutrients we need to keep our white blood cells in tip-top shape! ( If you haven’t read, Human Body Detectives: Battle with the Bugs, get it on Amazon and read it!)

One concern, which I had at first, is that it will spoil quickly. That is true, but why don’t you freeze it? Or make soups and stews and freeze them? This is a good opportunity to get your kids in the kitchen to help, empower the young ones with good knife skills, and come up with some delicious meals.

Out of fruit? Luckily I am in a warmer climate so this might not work for most of you but a friend of mine mentioned she was out of lemons ( a good source of vitamin C). So she went on the Next Door app and asked her neighbours if anyone had a lemon tree. The next thing she knew, she was picking some lemons off a neighbours tree. I loved this story!

Eat well, keep hydrated, get your 💤 , play and laugh!

Schedule A Consultation
First Visit

We discuss your symptoms and what is going on with your health.

From our conversation, I draw up a treatment plan that will be sent to you within 24 hours with any suggested supplements and/or lab work. Depending on your location, we will determine the best place to have the lab work performed. Any necessary prescriptions will be sent from Fullscript where you can easily create an account and fulfill online.

Note: I usually suggest blood work and other labs in a 1st session to look at body biomarkers so that we can match symptoms to what is happening in the body and then make sure to align diet and lifestyle from there.
