🌟💪 Boron is a trace mineral crucial for various biological functions, especially in maintaining bone health. Here are three ways boron benefits your bones:

1. Boosts Magnesium Absorption: Magnesium is essential for bone health, and boron enhances its absorption and deposition in bones, supporting overall bone strength.

2. Enhances Vitamin D Absorption: Vitamin D is vital for strong bones. Boron aids in improving the absorption of vitamin D, crucial for preventing conditions like rickets and promoting bone health.

3. Supports S*x Hormone Metabolism: After menopause, bone loss increases. Boron helps regulate s*x hormone levels like 17-beta estradiol and testosterone, influencing bone health positively.

🍽️ Dietary Sources: Get boron from foods like prunes, raisins, almonds, peanuts, hazelnuts, bananas, and apples. Dried fruits, like prunes, have shown to support bone health effectively.

Supplementation: There’s no established RDA for boron, but studies suggest benefits with 3 to 6 mg daily supplementation, especially for enhancing bone health.

Important Note: Consider consulting with a healthcare provider, especially if there’s a family history of hormonal cancers, before starting boron supplements.

📒 A study in the British Medical Journal showed that chronic use of oral and inhaled glucocorticoids may affect both white and gray matter in the brain. These medications are commonly used to treat chronic allergies, asthma, sinusitis, and autoimmune conditions. The good news is that the brain may be able to repair itself if the medications are discontinued.

In clinical practice, I often focus on identifying possible root causes behind chronic symptoms, including food sensitivities, environmental allergens, and nutritional imbalances. By addressing these underlying factors and supporting the body with the right nutrition through diet and targeted supplementation, it may be possible to reduce the need for anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive medications in some cases.

Supportive options may include food sensitivity testing, environmental allergen evaluation, anti-inflammatory nutrition, and supplements such as quercetin, fish oil, NAC, and vitamin D3.

Fatigue can affect both physical and mental performance, especially during periods of stress or burnout 🫩

🌼 Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb that has been studied for its potential ability to support energy levels and stress resilience.

Research suggests that rhodiola extract may help reduce symptoms of fatigue, improve mental concentration, and support the body’s response to stress.

In one study, participants taking 400 mg daily for 8 weeks experienced significant improvements in fatigue and weakness, with some noticing changes within the first week.

While more research is still needed, rhodiola continues to be studied for its role in supporting energy, focus, and stress adaptation 🌿

🍄‍🟫 Reishi, also known as Ganoderma lucidum, has been used for centuries in East Asian herbal traditions and continues to be studied for its role in immune and stress support 💭🧠

Immune Support:
Research suggests that reishi extracts may help modulate the immune system. Certain compounds, including beta glucans and triterpenes, appear to support healthy immune cell activity and promote a balanced immune response. Some clinical studies have observed enhanced immune markers in individuals taking reishi extracts.

Stress and Mood Support:
Reishi is often classified as an adaptogen, meaning it may help the body respond more effectively to physical and emotional stress. Emerging research has noted improvements in perceived well being and mood in some individuals using reishi preparations.

Clinical Considerations:
Reishi is commonly used in extract, capsule, or powdered form. Quality, sourcing, and standardization matter, especially when recommending therapeutic doses. As with any supplement, individualized assessment is essential, particularly for patients who are pregnant, managing autoimmune conditions, or taking immunomodulatory medications.

Reishi can be a valuable addition to a comprehensive, root cause focused approach to immune resilience and stress balance 🌿

Naturopathic physicians know all too well that your health doesn’t exist in a vacuum. There are several environmental factors like stress, exercise, and relationships, and that we all have to juggle to stay healthy.

Many of us are working way too much, and not sleeping nearly enough. We tackle every day with a low hum of stress and anxiety in the background. This stress can wreak havoc on your mind and body. There are even studies linking stress to tension headaches, depression, and insomnia. Stress also weakens your immune system making you vulnerable to infections and increases your risk for high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and heart attack.

Pills tend to treat the symptoms, but ignore the factors creating the symptoms. That’s why naturopathic doctors include lifestyle counseling in our individualized treatment plan. We care about laying the proper foundations for health and disease prevention.

Do you experience migraines before your period every month? 😣

Hormonal migraines, also called menstrual migraines, are common in women in their 30s and 40s. Many women are told their hormone levels are “normal,” yet they continue to struggle with debilitating headaches tied to their cycle.

Recently, I worked with a 38 year old woman experiencing 2 to 4 migraines per month, typically one to two days before menstruation. Her symptoms included:

❌ Throbbing headache behind one eye
❌ Light sensitivity
❌ Fatigue
❌ Nausea
❌ PMS symptoms

Blood work showed normal estrogen levels. However, because her migraines were clearly cyclical, we evaluated her estrogen metabolism using a comprehensive dried urine hormone test, DUTCH test.

👉🏼 Estrogen is broken down through several metabolic pathways. Some produce more protective metabolites, while others create more reactive compounds that may contribute to inflammation.

Her results showed more estrogen was metabolized down the 4 hydroxy pathway, which produces more reactive metabolites. Research shows the natural estrogen drop before menstruation is a recognized trigger for menstrual migraines. When estrogen metabolism is more inflammatory, some women may be more sensitive to hormonal shifts.

Rather than suppressing hormones, the focus was supporting healthy estrogen metabolism and reducing inflammatory burden.

Her plan included:

Cruciferous vegetables
Targeted nutritional support for estrogen metabolism
B vitamins for methylation support
Magnesium
Antioxidants
Stress and sleep optimization

Over several cycles, her migraine frequency and severity decreased, and PMS symptoms improved.

Struggling with cyclical migraines?

Migraines before your period
Worsening headaches in your late 30s
PMS with headaches
“Normal” labs but ongoing symptoms

A deeper look at hormone balance and estrogen metabolism may provide helpful insight.

If you would like to explore personalized testing and support for hormonal migraines, we are here to help.

Five Natural Sleep Boosters 😴🌙

1) Ashwagandha: An adaptogen shown to reduce stress hormones like cortisol, helping your mind and body relax before bed.

2) Valerian Root: Used for centuries as a natural sedative, studies show it may improve sleep quality and reduce the time it takes to fall asleep.

3) L-Tryptophan: An essential amino acid your body uses to make serotonin and melatonin, both key for regulating your sleep-wake cycle.

4) Melatonin: A hormone naturally produced by your body at night, helpful for improving sleep onset and resetting your internal clock after travel or late nights.

5) Glycine: Research suggests it lowers core body temperature, which signals your body that it’s time to sleep, and may also increase deep, restorative sleep stages.

💡 Always consult your healthcare provider before starting new supplements, especially if you take medication or have health conditions.

Menopause can bring intimate changes like dryness, irritation, and bladder symptoms, known as genitourinary syndrome. While vaginal estrogen is common, not everyone feels comfortable using hormones. Research shows Vitamin E suppositories may offer a gentle, effective alternative for relieving vaginal atrophy symptoms, supporting comfort and confidence at any stage.
