Have you been on PPIs (proton pump inhibitors) for heartburn for more than a year? Think twice! 💊

Long-term use of Proton Pump Inhibitors might give you more than just heartburn relief.

Here are possible side effects:

😵 Headaches, tummy troubles, and gas
🦠 Increased risk of nasty gut infections (like C. difficile)
🧲 Magnesium levels dropping

While these medicines may sometimes be necessary, often patients get put on them for years without a proper reassessment.

Talk to your doc if you have concerns. Your gut will thank you! 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

PS: There are some natural treatment options available which you may want to explore under your doc's supervision.

Gummy bears make everything better when you have a child with a sore throat that won't sip on hot tea. Made these with freshly squeezed OJ, lemon juice, honey, steeped Throat Coat tea, ginger powder (you can use fresh if your kid can take it and steep it with the tea), and gelatin powder.

Are you confused about what to expect around perimenopause? Is this "second puberty" causing changes in your body you never saw coming?

Knowledge is power!

Here are the top 5 symptoms to look for:

1) Hot flashes or night sweats
2) Mood swings that cause emotional rollercoasters
3) Irregular periods that may be heavier or lighter than they used to be
4) Insomnia, especially waking around 3am!
5) Weight gain

Symptoms can start 10 years or more before your last period. Naturopathic doctors can help you manage your symptoms so that your symptoms don't take over your life!

Very happy to hear that the Celiac test is now covered by OHIP! So may of my patients are sensitive to gluten, and knowing if you have Celiac or a less serious sensitivity can make a big difference in our long-term approach.

Please note that, for this test to be accurate, you need to be consuming a specific amount of gluten daily before the test. If you have serious symptoms from the gluten and have already removed it from your diet, discuss with your doctor whether it's worth reintroducing before the test or to forego the test at this time.

Hot flashes, mood changes, or insomnia keeping you back from showing up as your best self?

I'm updating my hormone replacement therapy education so that I can better help women going through the menopause transition.

HRT is the standard of care for treating menopausal hot flashes.

The closer you start treatment to your last menstrual period, the better the benefits for cognition and cardiovascular health long-term.

And you can get benefits long-term from just 2 years of treatment if you decide to stop after.

I'll be sharing more info about this in upcoming posts!

Struggling with uterine fibroids? There are some natural treatments that may help!

Uterine fibroids thrive in a high estrogen, high inflammation, and insulin resistant environment.

Guess what can help with all of that? Adequate Vitamin D! And usually not just the 1000-2000IU a day that is usually recommended.

Make sure to get your levels tested so that your dosage can be personalized and we can safely dose higher if needed.

I can get you tested and then walk you through your next steps! Send me a DM or book an appointment here https://www.tamarferreirand.com/book-now.html.
