Radio Naturopath Episode 546: Luteal Uglies/PMS/PMDD, Plant Based Diet for Diabetes
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 490 Chia Pudding, Healthy Creamer, Mediterranean Diet & Bone Density
This week, I was back on with Ron after a while so got to catch up with him on the air. He is VERY proud of his son who just got married in Chicago to a lovely woman! We talked about the joy of the wedding. Then he updated us on his cervical spinal stenosis diagnosis, and the likelihood that he will have surgery. He'll find out just what that entails before the next show! Then some fun topics, like a great recipe for chia pudding, and how to make your morning coffee creamer healthier. We finished with the reduced calorie Mediterranean diet, a largely plant based diet (not vegetarian) that promotes both fat loss and healthy bone density!
