I’m so excited to announce the drop of the FREE NERVOUS SYSTEM GUIDE EBOOK!

Available for download through DrAlanaND.com & through the link in my bio.

The nervous system is not to be neglected when we are talking health & wellness.

You can’t heal in a body that’s in survival mode - your precious resources are simply being redirected away from “rest & digest”

I created this EBOOK as an accessible place for everyone to begin. I believe this shouldn’t be gate-kept behind a paywall because it’s that important.

Let me know what you think!

Replying to 🍁

Grazing used to be all the rage but we know better now!!

Some people do benefit from more frequent eating:

📉 People with reactive hypoglycemia who experience symptoms when going too long without eating

🏋️‍♀️ Athletes or highly active individuals with high calorie demands

✨ People trying to gain weight or recovering from illness who struggle to eat enough at meals

🤰🏻Pregnant individuals experiencing nausea or food aversions

🩺 People with certain digestive conditions who tolerate smaller meals better than large ones

💉Some individuals with diabetes, depending on their blood sugar patterns and medications

🍽️ People transitioning away from highly processed foods who are not yet consuming enough protein, fibre, or healthy fats at meals

Otherwise, many find that:
🍽️ 3 balanced meals per day
🍗 Adequate protein
🥦 Adequate fibre
🥑 Healthy fats
✨Enough total calories..allow them to comfortably go 3–5 hours between meals without needing to snack.

I focus on teaching my patients to count nutrients, not calories and this allows for metabolic flexibility - meaning you have resilience and are healthy from the inside out.

Signs you need to focus on blood sugar stability:
- energy crashes after eating
- weight gain
- brain fog
- acne
- lightheaded when hungry
- “Hangry”
- mood swings
- waking up throughout the night

You’ve got to stop eating every 2 hours. You’re causing insulin resistance! But I know why you’re snacking so much….your meals aren’t satiating you at all.

Count nutrients, not calories. Particularly FIBER AND PROTEIN. Build satiating meals so you aren’t hungry for snacking.

Fiber and protein slow digestion and add valuable nutrients to your diet that will positively impact you in so many ways.

Btw…Blood sugar rollercoasters aren’t always seen on labs because the changes happen hour to hour and the issues might be too early to catch on labs.

If you know, you know.

I know that feeling — the frustration and grief of leaving medical appointments without answers.

Women deal with so many symptoms and are often dismissed in healthcare settings.

Naturopathic medicine often fills the gaps of health and wellness that so many women are left navigating alone.

As a naturopathic doctor, I investigate, connect the dots, and treat you like a whole person — not just a set of symptoms.

💊If you are aimlessly taking supplements and wondering if they’re doing you any good, I highly suggest booking a free 15 minute consult. So often I see patients who think they’re taking the right supplements for them, and it turns out, the regimen needs a lot of work.

💊I often dial back what people are taking bc I like to simplify simplify simplify. Let’s figure out what you NEED, the dose, the form, the brand - and reduce pill burden along the way.

💊So while 1:1 is the best way to learn about supplements for you, I ALWAYS educate patients on HOW and WHEN to take them for BEST results.

If you don’t know where to start, that’s okay - I do!

Do you take supplements??

19/05/2026

The Ontario healthcare system is so jammed - and while naturopathic doctors aren’t here to replace conventional medicine, we DO help take some of the weight off.

We spend time with patients. We help connect the dots. We educate, investigate, support prevention, and help people better understand their bodies before things progress further.

From digestion and hormones to stress, sleep, metabolic health, fertility, skin, chronic fatigue, and lifestyle support - many people are looking for more guidance than the current system realistically has time to provide.

NDs help fill some of those gaps by working alongside other healthcare providers, supporting health literacy, and helping patients feel heard, empowered, and proactive in their care.

Healthcare works best when it’s collaborative.

❓Do you feel like your doctors have enough

17/05/2026

Within the reference range ≠ optimal range.

Many people spend years feeling exhausted, dismissed, inflamed, anxious, foggy, burnt out, struggling with skin, hormones, digestion, cycles, or weight changes - only to be told everything looks “fine.”

Sometimes the issue isn’t that symptoms aren’t real. It’s that:

🧪incomplete panels were ordered

🧪patterns between systems weren’t considered

🧪early dysfunction wasn’t caught yet because of the lack of lab markers ordered

🧪results were interpreted only against broad disease ranges rather than optimal function

Healthcare shouldn’t just be about waiting until something is severely abnormal and horribly wrong.

Your symptoms are information. Your body is communicating.
