Are you prepared for dealing with uninvited guests? 🕷 As we inch towards winter with cooler weather, ticks are still active - and hungry. Species of ticks that carry Lyme Disease are present in our area. Be sure to check your pets, kiddos, partner and yourself for ticks after spending any time outdoors especially in leafy, wooded areas. Check your doggy before you snuggle on the couch 🛋 (or in bed 🛌). If you find an attached tick visit @canlymee for instructions on how to remove it properly. People with tick bites should seek immediate medical attention as they may require antibiotics urgently to kill Lyme disease causing bacteria if the tick was attached long enough for transmission to be possible. Speak to your veterinarian for how to manage ticks on pets - after you remove the tick ASAP. It’s a good idea to have a tick removal kit on hand so you can remove ticks like a boss when you find them. Notice my tick was removed intact, meaning no tick mouth parts left in the doggy to increase risk of infection (so pro, right?!). I recommend ordering a tick removal kit from @canlymee ⛑👍🏼👍🏼 I think this is an adult female black legged aka deer tick, and based on the size due to engorged body she was likely attached to the dog for 3 days. If anyone is an expert in entomology please comment and correct me below 🤔👇🏼 Tick was picked up in a residential area. You don’t have to be hiking the @brucetrail_btc to get a tick bite - it can literally happen in your backyard or other landscaped grounds. #lymedisease #ticks #carrythekit #tickremoval #collingwood #wellness #prevention #activelifestyle #outdoors #hiking #mountainbiking #trailrunning #forestbathing #treeclimbing #camping #gardening #furbabies #dogmom #furfamily #deertick #blackleggedtick #ixodesscapularis #entomology #creepycrawlies #borrelia #chroniclymedisease #integrativemedicine #functionalmedicine #naturopathicmedicine #naturopathicdoctor

I’m not going to sugar coat it: constipation is a shitty situation. 💩 While many factors can contribute to a slow transit time and infrequent bowel movements, like a crappy diet, certain drugs, inactivity and dehydration, this common complaint is often related to an imbalance of gut bacteria. More specifically, gut bacteria which are supposed to hang out in your large intestine become too plentiful in your small intestine. This is called Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth. 🧫 When you have SIBO, dietary carbohydrates become fermented by those pesky bacteria rather than being broken down and absorbed by YOU. As a result you become bloated and gassy. Some gut bacteria produce methane gas which is associated with and may even cause constipation according to recent studies. 🍒🍑🍐🥐🥛🍯 If you suffer from constipation that hasn’t responded to improving your diet and lifestyle, and if you struggle with frequent symptoms of bloating and gas, you should probably be assessed for SIBO. When I suspect a patient has SIBO I run an inexpensive, non-invasive breath test that detects elevated methane and hydrogen gas. 💨 While some people with SIBO present with constipation, others present with diarrhea, and some people experience alternating constipation and diarrhea. Does this sound a lot like IBS? Interestingly, evidence from recent studies indicates that a significant percentage of people with a diagnosis of IBS have underlying SIBO and their IBS symptoms improve when they are successfully treated for SIBO. 🙌🏻 Certain drugs increase your risk of contracting SIBO, including proton pump inhibitors which are used to manage GERD. 💊 #SIBO #sibotreatment #constipation #ibs #diarrhea #poopingproblems #integrativemedicine #functionalmedicine #naturopathicmedicine #naturopathicdoctor #guthealth #bitmoji #collingwood

Where is your favourite place to take in the fall colours? 🍂✨

It’s soup season, betches! 🍜🍂 That’s it. I literally just wanted to say betches 😆 And I’m an #eldermillennial so I can’t eat without first taking a photo 📸 Tonight I’m warming my guts with Chinese dumplings and wood ear mushrooms 🥟🍄 Wish you were here @marketmademeals you’d like this 💕 Stay tuned for my bone broth recipe - I promise to post it soon.🤞🏻

Not moving until Tuesday. Unless it involves food. Ok I’m lying.. 🤥 I’m actually really bad at sitting still! 🧘🏻‍♀️ But on my recent trip to Italy I fully embraced the pisolino - the regionally sanctioned afternoon nap enjoyed in some parts of the world by the people lucky enough to live there. 🇮🇹 Let me tell you, that sh*t is brilliant! Talk about a self care secret weapon. While it’s tough to keep up the habit on the daily here in Canada I do strive to take a nap once or twice a week. I wake from my naps feeling energized, rejuvenated, and unusually chill, ready to face the rest of the week with what feels like greater ease, enthusiasm and creativity (probably lower cortisol 😆). Anyone else fantasizing about taking a catnap in between home organization projects and family feasts this weekend? Pro tip: an actual cat pinning you to a sofa is immensely helpful. 😻🛋💤 Here’s some science about napping and cardiovascular disease: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/31501230/?i=5&from=napping #happythanksgiving #naptime #catnap #rest #siesta #pisolino #selfcare #nappingisthenewkale #lazyisthenewmultitasking #cortisol #chronicstress #productivity #creativity #memory #happiness #collingwood #doctorswhonap #integrativemedicine #functionalmedicine #naturopathicmedicine
