Naturopathic doctor supporting patients with cancer before, during and after their conventional treatment.

Naturopathic Doctor Empowering Cancer Patients Through Integrative Medicine - Dr. Alaina Gair Offers Evidence-Based Support Throughout Diagnosis, Treatment and Recovery.

02/18/2026

Taking a long list of supplements right away isn’t something I personally do as a naturopathic doctor supporting people through cancer.

And yes, that surprises people.

Here’s why 👇

In my clinical experience, I’ve seen that starting with too much creates confusion and overwhelm.

It can:
✘ Increase confusion and stress
✘ Make it hard to know what’s actually helping
✘ Add financial pressure at an already vulnerable time

There are better ways to support the body during treatment and recovery.

I’d rather:
✔️ Build a strong foundation first
✔️ Support mitochondria and energy pathways strategically
✔️ Layer interventions in phases that meet YOUR goals

Of course, individuality matters.

But as a general rule? This isn’t where I start.

If you want a clear, phased plan that actually feels manageable let’s connect!

Here’s what I hope you will take away 👇

You’re doing better than you think.

Nobody has it all together and nobody is “perfect” every day.

If you zoom out, you’ll see how far you’ve come ❤️‍🩹

And if you’re a patient with cancer looking for guidance in the kitchen, I hope you will:

Did #1 surprise you? These simple strategies can be game changers for patients that are struggling in the aftermath of chemo.

This is NOT instead of your supportive prescriptions - it’s alongside them.

Is the research we have perfect? Nope. But for simple interventions like progressive muscle relaxation, I’m comfortable with recommending it based on what we do have. Up next: fasting mimicking diet to manage chemotherapy side effects. Stay tuned!!

Let me know if you’ve tried any of these and whether or not you found them helpful! Remember - what works for someone else, may not be quite the right fit for you.

Different parts of the body have different pH (ex: stomach is LOW/very acidic) and blood is higher/more alkaline. Your body tightly regulates its pH, no matter what you eat. That means “alkaline” foods don’t change your blood pH. In fact, the pH of your urine will increase when you consume more acidic foods as part of the mechanism to keep the blood’s pH in the ideal zone.

What they do change? The quality of your diet. More vegetables, fruits, and whole foods give your body nutrients it can use for energy, healing, and resilience.

So while you can’t “alkalinize” your way out of cancer, you can choose to eat foods from the alkaline lists to nourish your body through it.

Rest and movement are both essential during cancer treatment. Here’s the key: balance.

🧘‍♀️ Gentle movement—like walking, stretching, or yoga—can boost your mood and circulation.
😴 Rest isn’t lazy; it’s a necessary part of healing. Your body works hard during treatment, and rest gives it the energy to recover.

Tip: Check in with yourself each day and adapt. Some days call for more movement, and others call for more stillness. Both are important!

What’s your favorite way to rest or move? Let me know below! 💕

Did you know that protein is one key to staying strong during cancer treatment? 💪
It helps with energy, healing, and muscle maintenance—all critical during this time.

Here are some easy ways to boost your protein intake:
✨ Add protein powder to your favorite milk for a snack.
✨ Use high-protein bread or wraps for eggs or sandwiches.
✨ Keep quick proteins ready to go: think baked chicken, boiled eggs, or egg bites.

A small shift to try: Before every meal or snack, ask yourself: “Where’s the protein?” You’ll feel more energized, stay full longer, and even sleep better at night. Small shifts, big impact!
