Radio Naturopath Episode 546: Luteal Uglies/PMS/PMDD, Plant Based Diet for Diabetes

Radio Naturopath Episode 546: Luteal Uglies-PMS-PMDD; Planted Based Diet for Diabetes
Fran Storch

This week, I found an article that discussed the LUTEAL UGLIES. That's when people who menstruate feel LOUSY the second half of their cycle. The article I read said that it's due to declining estrogen, but I think it's really due to estrogen dominance. I discuss how that happens and what you can do about it. Then, we talked about how plant-based diets help to stem the risk of diabetes more than low-carb diets! That's exciting news for people who don't want to eat a lot of animal protein. Having said that, I still believe that the right diet for YOU is the (insert your name here) diet. Naturopathic medicine is all about biochemical and general human individuality!

Radio Naturopath Episode 265
Fran Storch and Ron Manizza

It's like Ground Hog Week! This week, I quoted Richard Redfield, the director of the CDC, who said that if we all wore masks, we could get a handle on this virus in about 2 months. I keep repeating it, but it's important. I went on to remind people that it's hot and they need to hydrate. Then, as requested by a listener, I started on my latest information about helping with menopause symptoms. There's so much to discuss that I'm going to continue next week!

Radio Naturopath Episode 184: Materia Medica vs. Repertory; Ovarian Cysts: What, Why, How to Treat

Radio Naturopath Episode 184
Fran Storch

Today we talk a little more about homeopathy, and compare the Materia Medica to the Repertory. Materia Medica lists all the homeopathic remedies alphabetically and what they do, whereas the Repertory gives you every possible symptom there could be and tells you what remedies will help it. Both very useful tools in homeopathy! Also, all about ovarian cysts (OWW), what they are, why they happen, and how to treat them.
