This has been a rough summer for me. I was let go from Parallel Wellness after working there for twenty plus years. I have not been able to drive my patient numbers since the pandemic to be honest. Facts have to be faced. When I was speaking in companies I could drive my business effectively. Companies are not hiring speakers as readily as before. I have lived with MS since I was 21 years old I believe, I walk to get groceries from Blush Lane. It takes about twenty minutes. I fill up my knapsack with groceries and walk back to my condo. It is a good workout for me. I am building strength in my body. I feel my Olympic journey takes place everyday living with MS. I have started swimming regularly too which feels so good. I started taking Maca again. I find this herb to be such a good support in menopause for hormones and to promote energy. The other herbs I use to promote energy are Ribes nigrum and Sequoia gigantea (both gemmotherapies). Sequioa is a gentle Yin tonic which promotes Estrogen and Ribes promotes cortisol with a more Yang energy. Come in and see me while I am still practicing downtown. 4032321283 Dr. Robin Vinge
Help for Eliminating Acne
I suffered from acne as a teenager. I even experienced it into my 40’s. I am free of it now. I have learned a lot about it so I thought I would share this blog with others so you know what to do to prevent it. Acne has been linked to the intake of refined carbohydrates (sugar and flour products), dairy products (cow’s milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream) and saturated fats found in animal products, trans-fats and deficient omega 3 P.U.F.A.’s.
MTOR aggravators can aggravate acne. Activators of MTOR include proteins especially if they are high in leucine (beef, eggs, whey protein) , having an excess of calories, having an excess of carbohydrates or high levels of insulin (as a result of high glycemic carbohydrates- flour and sugar) and testosterone which is an androgen hormone.
Plants that inhibit MTOR are helpful in reducing inflammation. These foods include pomegranates, raspberries, curcumin found in turmeric root, resveratrol found in red grapes. quercetin (found in onions, garlic, leeks, green leafy vegetables, blueberries), omega 3 fatty acids found in wild fish and flaxseeds (MultiEFA capsules is a supplement that I sell in my dispensary).
Barberries at 1 tsp three times daily can help reduce acne. Go to Amazon.ca if you want to order. Acne-gen is a phytogen I use to treat acne. I also use Unda numbers and homeopathy to treat acne. Probiotics can decrease acne lesions by 45%. Treating the gut cleared my acne so please book in with me if you want to resolve your acne or any other dermatological condition.

Blood Cancer
A friend of mine was diagnosed with blood cancer so I wanted to look up all the information I had about it, metaphorical and otherwise to help. Blood represents joy circulating in the body. Here is your first clue- do you have joy in your life, what represents joy for you, how can you bring more joy into your life? How are you destroying yourself and refusing to fight? Sometimes it can mean I want to please the family and I will kill myself to get there. (I myself feel the truth of that statement. I was built with an inherent drive and I have to keep it in check to prevent a susceptibility to blood cancer perhaps).
Affirmations that are useful in this situation are ‘I accept to go with life vs against it.’ ‘I take the best available means for me to change surviving for living. I am thus at peace with myself and I no longer feel the need to defend myself beyond measure’. ‘Whether I am an adult or a child, I must live in truth and authenticity to regain contact with the life that inhabits me.’ ‘I have the courage to show my deepest emotions.’ I let go of the past and undertake to be true at all times.’ ‘I renew contact with my deep desires.’
Nutritional advice for blood cancers- Decreased risk with vegetarian diets- nearly 50%. Sulfurophane- the active component in cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, kale, collard greens, watercress, bok choy, kohlrabi, rutabaga, turnips, arugula, radish, horseradish, wasabi, cabbage) kills human leukemia cells in a petri dish. I would recommend getting 3 to 5 servings of cruciferous vegetables daily. Make sure you get a variety of different cruciferous vegetables so you are exposed to different phytonutrients.
Those eating 3 servings of vegetables daily have a 42% improved survival rate. Green leafy vegetables, salad, cooked greens and citrus fruits are the most protective. People who ate greater than five servings of green leafy vegetables had half the odds of getting lymphoma. Drink green tea. Eat garlic. Drink pomegranate juice or eat pomegranates which have anti-leukemic activity. Turmeric at 300 mg, 3x/day may decrease the pain and inflammation associated with leukemia syx. Cut out diet soda. Cut out sugar and processed food.
This is a start. Book a visit with me if you want to be proactive with your health. I currently have an EFT special and counseling special on. Doing EFT using the affirmations I have listed here is a good start. Dr. Robin Vinge, Naturopathic doctor at Parallel Wellness 4032321283
