Thyroid

Our Naturopaths always do a deep dive and run advanced Thyroid Testing (TSH, FT3, FT4) in all of our weight loss cases.

We make sure that patients already on Synthroid are converting and utilizing their medication appropriately. 

Our Naturopaths consider Thyroid an issue especially if accessory Thyroid symptoms are present: fatigue, weakness, depression, constipation etc.

We always review your previous blood work in your first visit & many times we find issues in lab work that have been previously overlooked.

TruMed offers Thyroid Replacement through our Nurse Practitioner - Synthroid, Desiccated Thyroid, Cytomel and T4/T3 combinations are all common options.

Adrenals

Signs and symptoms of hypoadrenalism may include fatigue, salt craving, positional blood pressure issues, insomnia and poor tolerance to stress. 

Hypoadrenalism or "Adrenal Fatigue" is a common cause of fatigue.

Cortisol and Thyroid function are linked and low Cortisol is thought to cause "pooling" of Thyroid hormone.

Conversely, high Cortisol can encourage weight deposition (excess release of energy substrates).

We usually run blood, salivary or urinary DHEA and Cortisol in our weight gain cases.

Cortisol or DHEA management strategies are then employed.

Androgens

We always screen our Edmonton weight loss patients for low male hormones (Androgens) - Testosterone and DHEA.

As mentioned above, DHEA is principally an adrenal hormone.

Both Testosterone and DHEA affect energy, memory, muscle mass, mood and libido in men and women.

Although herbal options are available to boost these levels, in our experience, the effects are frequently modest.

We work with a range of Androgen replacement options including Testosterone (creams, gels, shots) and DHEA (orally or as a cream) through our Nurse Practitioner,

We also work with substances that can augment endogenous Testosterone production such as hCG and Clomid, also through our in-house NP.

Adrenal, Thyroid, & Hormonal Test Reports

Food Sensitivity 

According to one estimate, as much as 60% of the population suffers from undetected food sensitivities.

IV Therapy often gets rapid results even in long standing chronic fatigue.

Both long and short format drips are popular treatments in Edmonton for energy that our Naturopaths have a lot of experience with.

We usually get best results with our standard small volume drip or push IVs.
