I have some big news! I will be joining Hearth Natural Medicine! Hearth is a non-profit community health center with a similar goal of providing affordable naturopathic care to people in Jefferson county. I am a bit sad to no longer be Quilcene based, but Kala Point isn't very far. One of the big advantages is that I can focus on my patients rather than on trying to build a business. I will also be able to accept many insurance plans, especially Apple Health plans. Check out their website for more information. You can call now to book appointments starting in November!

I hope you all are staying cool and hydrated! Remember, just plain water is not enough if you are sweating a lot. Make sure to replenish those electrolytes! Store bought drinks often have a lot of added sugar and dyes, but you can make your own tasty electrolyte drinks at home! Here is a general recipe for a lemon flavored drink. Citrus fruits have a lot of potassium, which is important to replenish. You can adapt this recipe to make other flavors by adding different citrus, strawberries, pomegranate juice, etc. You can also make it with herbal teas such as hibiscus. (If you use hibiscus you may not want to add lemon juice as it is already sour)

3 1/2 cups water (or coconut water or herbal tea)
1/2 cup lemon juice (or lime or orange)
1/8 to 1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp calcium magnesium powder (if you have it)
1 to 3 Tbsp Honey

If making this for children under 1 year old substitute the honey for a different sweetener such as maple syrup and use the lower amount of salt.

Stay cool and refreshed!
