March 28, 2024 6. What is a Naturopathic Medicine? FAQ
Naturopathic medicine is a form of primary care that focuses on holistic and natural approaches to health. In addition to routine exams and bloodwork, naturopaths offer specialty testing to dive deeper into a patient's health. This can include analyzing genetic influences on nutrition, identifying nutrient deficiencies, and providing nutritional counseling. Naturopaths are also knowledgeable about botanicals and herbal medicine, helping patients navigate which supplements are right for them. They are trained to address nutrient depletions caused by medications and offer strategies to mitigate potential harm. Specialized testing can also assess factors like autoimmune conditions, adrenal function, hormonal health, microbiome imbalances, heavy metal toxicities, food sensitivities, cardiovascular health, inflammatory markers, mold exposure, neurotransmitter levels, organic acids, and chronic viral infections. Analyzing genetic information with tools like Opus 23 can provide insight into a person's predispositions and guide treatment. Additionally, microbiome analysis is crucial for maintaining a healthy balance of gut flora, as imbalances can contribute to various health issues. Optimizing digestive health can have positive effects on overall wellness and even preemptively treat certain conditions. Understanding how food is metabolized, nutrient absorption, and the relationship with weight management is another area naturopaths can address. Overall, naturopathic medicine offers a comprehensive and personalized approach to healthcare.

March 28, 2024 5. How can we improve Medicine?: How We Operate At Oahu Holistic Medicine
How can we improve medicine in our world today?
Here are the changes we've made based on successes and failures with patients until today. Keeping what works, leaving what's useless, adding what's uniquely our own.
If it sounds like a shameless plug, it sort of is. I ripped the audio from a video on our website lol! So take it with a grain of salt - as my teacher would say, if you learn one thing listening to it, it's worth it!
Share if you think it's useful to someone, and if not, well... I'll do better.
Thanks!

I recently made a little recording about what it looks like to be inside of our practice.

I hope this helps guide you to the practitioners and medicines that will change your life. https://oahuholisticmedicine.com/

March 28, 2024 2. Realistic Expectations With Holistic Medicine
When things "break," we want to "fix" them. How "fixed" can things really be? We investigate this concept with a few analogies.
Feel free to ask us any questions you may have at https://oahuholisticmedicine.com/ so perhaps we pull apart those questions and answer them "on air."
