Could Oxalate Toxicity be a piece of your health issues?

Vegan diets and spinach-packed green juice have become symbols of health, vitality, and saving the planet, but is there a dark side to consuming high amounts of plant-based foods?

Plants have inherent chemical defence systems that protect them from invaders. One such chemical is oxalate or oxalic acid, and you’ll see, it can wreak havoc on your mind and body.

I am passionate about helping you to understand the changes that are occurring in perimenopause and what they means for you in terms of symptoms and natural treatment options. Perimenopause can be a time that your body lets you know you need to start paying attention! Start to manage your stress and work on your microbiome as you will be well rewarded!

Mould is only one of the many biotoxins found in water-damaged buildings. The illness caused by exposure to these toxins is much more complex than most practitioners and patients assume. Because mycotoxins and biotoxins can suppress the immune system, you often end up on multiple rounds of antibiotics, which diminishes the immune protective effect of healthy gut flora. This can cause overgrowth of Candida, another type of fungus that produces its own mycotoxins.

A strong and healthy immune system may fend off pathogenic viruses and bacteria before they take hold and make you unwell. And if you do happen to come down with something, a robust immune system may lessen the severity of symptoms or shorten their duration.

One of the most important things happening in the extracellular matrix is the communication between cells and the lymphatic system, which has the primary tasks of helping the body get rid of toxins and supporting the immune system. Made up of a system of lymphatic vessels, nodes, glands, and even organs, such as the tonsils, spleen and thymus, the lymphatic system moves fluid filled with infection-fighting white blood cells throughout the body and returns it to the heart.

You may have heard of your terrain and microbiome. Well you actually have a microbiome in several parts of your body including your brain. My job is to assist you to clean up all this terrain and replenish all these microbiomes in a systematic safe fashion so you don’t re-intoxify yourself and damage the most sensitive tissues which are your brain, nervous system and kidneys.
