That Naturopathic Podcast

Latest Episodes:

Nature Cure. Aug 20, 2020

Show notes

Some people may say that Naturopathic Medicine is “the Medicine of the Future”.
But by the same token, Naturopathy is a branch of Medicine that is rooted in observing, cooperating, and adapting to natural phenomena, and Nature’s wisdom is timeless.
As such, it is a medicine of the past (and the present), and it is important to remember the roots of Naturopathic Medicine.
It is fitting, then, that we were able to have a conversation with Dr. Richard Vuksinic ND, a true student of the timeless phenomena of Nature and one of those “roots-y” Naturopathic Doctors who reminds the rest of us Naturopaths why we do what we do, and why it makes so much sense. Except for his strange infatuation with Doug Gilmour and the Toronto Maple Leafs, it is fairly safe to say that everything Naturopathic Medicine courses through his veins and forms every fibre of his being.
Join us as our friend and colleague, Dr. Richard Vuksinic ND, touches on hormesis, the microbiome, mitochondria, and deep Nature connection.

Physician, Heal Thyself. Jul 29, 2020

Show notes

A serious diagnosis can be a shocking event for any of us. How we respond may involve some common themes or stages, but the process we each go through is very personal. We often wonder why it has happened, what could we have done to prevent it?
And when it so happens that the patient is a Naturopathic Doctor, arguably the best equipped at preventative medicine, what are the doctor’s orders?
Join us for a conversation with Dr. Baljit Khamba ND as she shares some of the learnings of her life journey after “ringing the bell”.

Sleeping with the Enemy Jul 20, 2020

Show notes

Nobody wants any herpes virus, but you probably have one.
The funny thing is, they call you out on your health, and if a lowly virus wants out, your health is on shaky ground. (seriously, listen in for a live TNP recording of an actual earthquake in action)
Join us for a seismic episode with Dr. Kasey Holland as she re-activates our interest in how the KISSING DISEASE (mono) may rear up later in life and leave you wondering why you’re TIRED AF.

Birth of a Mother Jul 12, 2020

Show notes

“Being a mum is not a diagnosis.”
The birth of a child coincides with the birth of the mother.
Your brain changes, your hormones change, you’re more susceptible to some autoimmune changes, the baby blues, fatigue, etc. -- it’s a perfect storm of changes, and in all of the newness of birth, it’s difficult to tell what’s normal and what’s not.
Join us as Dr. Danielle Watson ND drops some proper mama science and cross-cultural wisdom and helps us see that there’s so much that Naturopathic Medicine can offer before, during, and after the birth of a mother.

“It’s Just Stress” Jun 19, 2020

Show notes

When you’re told “it’s just stress” it’s about as helpful as someone telling you to “calm down”.
Our simplistic and binary “fight or flight” and “rest and digest” understanding of the nervous system is outdated.
After Dr. Dave finally got her name right, our angelic guest and expert vagal knob-twiddler Dr. Kristina Kastalanac ND helped us understand how polyvagal theory and her experience with somatic experiencing can help your nervous system unwind in ways that go beyond wine, bubble baths, and essential oils.

Just the Tip. Jun 08, 2020

Show notes

When it comes to cancer (or any other serious or chronic disease), you can't stick with a “just the tip” approach (pssst get your mind out of the gutter -- we're talking about icebergs).
A few supplements and some extra vegetables don’t come close to honouring the struggle that you’ve been through.
This is your life -- the stakes are high, and if you’re motivated to do what needs to be done to regain your health, then you can’t just dip your toes in.
You gotta go all in.
Our deep-diving instructor for this episode is Dr. Lori Bouchard ND. Join us as she convinces Dr. Dave to give colon hydrotherapy another chance and shares her unique model of care.

Get crackin’ with Dr. Zeynep May 29, 2020

Show notes

You have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and you’re ready to start a family. The fertility journey may require some extra consideration. You might want to get crackin’, but it is one of the only situations in which delaying pregnancy to get your overall health and ‘eggs in a row’ can be an egg-cellent idea. Dr. Zeynep Uraz, an associate professor and guiding light in women’s health, joins us to crack open the conversation about supporting fertility with PC
OS.

Powerhouse May 21, 2020

Show notes

You can’t flog a dead horse. Well, you can, but it’s not going to get you anywhere.
You can drink all the green smoothies, haul some major CrossFit ass, and take your adrenal support, but if your mitochondria aren’t in the game, the game is over before it even starts.
Like money, ATP makes the (biological) world go round. Your 10 million billion mitochondria provide the currency that your body understands as ENERGY. If these little workhorses don’t do their part, whether it’s due to unhealthy cells, toxicity, or nutrient deficiencies, your energy will hit a dead end.
Luckily we have mitochondrial whisperer Dr. Bryan Rade ND to plug us into the grid.
