Reposted from @one80healthclinic - - The 6 Principles of Naturopathic Medicine! That’s a wrap on Naturopathic Medicine Week! Naturopathic philosophy is rooted in the healing power of the body and treating the root cause of disease. It is a primary health care system that integrates modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine. Naturopathic Doctors use the most natural, least invasive, and least toxic therapies to treat illness and to promot...e wellness by viewing the body as an integrated whole. Above all, we honour the body's innate wisdom to heal. ~Here are the 6 Principles of Naturopathic Medicine~ Trust in the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. Look beyond the symptoms to the root cause. Utilize the most natural, least invasive, and least toxic therapies. Educate patients in the steps to achieving and maintaining health. View the body as an integrated whole. Focus on overall health, wellness, and disease prevention. #naturopathicmedicine #naturopathicdoctor #heal #healthylifestyle #toronto #one80health #holistichealth #holistichealing #covid_19 #covid19 #covid @ Toronto, Ontario
IMMUNE SUPPORTING FOODS AND HERBS Nutrition is key for supporting our overall immunity. Studies show poor nutrition results in increased infections and inflammation. MY TOP 6 IMMUNE SUPPORTIVE FOODS/HERBS ... 1. Broccoli, Bell Peppers, Berries, Citrus Fruits, Kiwi, Guava, Asparagus - these are high in VITAMIN C 2. Garlic and Onions - both filled with selenium, zinc, sulfur compounds and vitamin C + garlic contains allicin which is an anti-viral compound 3. Carrots, Leafy Greens and Sweet Potatoes - these contain Vitamin A, E and K which are antioxidants important for immune function 4. Ginger and Turmeric - anti-inflammatory spices great for immunity 5. Protein - studies have shown a deficiency of high quality protein can cause a depletion of immune supportive cells. Fish is high in protein and omegas which are anti-inflammatory too. Oysters are a well-known immune booster - high in protein, and zinc too 6. Mushrooms - through their interaction with the gut microbiome, these fungi have huge immune strengthening properties. Bone broth @ripe.nutrition is a great way to get all these immune boosting foods in! TOP 3 FOODS/BEVERAGES TO AVOID FOR OPTIMAL IMMUNITY: 1. PROCESSED SUGAR - studies have shown spikes in sugar suppresses our immune system 2. ALCOHOL - too much alcohol weakens your immune system and has been shown to increase susceptibility to colds and flus 3. REFINED CARBOHYDRATES AND PROCESSED FOODS - white breads, pastas, packaged foods are considered inflammatory foods and weaken our immunity Everything in moderation of course. It’s beneficial to enjoy those French fries and that glass of wine sometimes, with no guilt Any other foods you enjoy that support immunity?
