for many people. Most people fail when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off. They have missed the most important variables: toxic burden, hormone levels, stress hormones and last but not least toxic emotions. Yo-yo dieting also causes muscle-wasting slowing down one’s metabolism making it more difficult to lose weight each time. This lecture will consider detoxification, hormone regulation and supplements that can help weight management. Dr. Triendl ND will also discuss the pros and cons of an HCG diet.

Dr. Alexandra Triendl ND is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor who practices at Cloud Care Clinics in downtown Toronto. There, she collaborates with medical doctors and other health care professionals in an integrative setting. Alexandra’s special interests include stress management, digestion, detoxification and weight loss. For more information seewww.torontosnaturopath.com.

One of our favourite activities to do when the warm weather sets in is to heat up the BBQ. Whether it’s at a fire pit in a local city park, on the balcony of your condo, or in a backyard setting we just love to enjoy a good meal outdoors and sit back with a cold one while basking in the glow of a setting sun.I’d like to share my Top 7 Unique & Healthy BBQ finds at The Big Carrot:1. Phil’s Turkey Sausages: These gluten-free sausages are made in-house using ground lean Turkey breast (from Cumbrae Farms) and organic spices & seasoning. They do not contain “fillers” made from wheat and corn derivatives or any sulphite preservatives, which are known for causing allergic reactions Cook over medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side. 2. Simply Natural Condiments offer almost every kind of sauce, spread, or salsa you need at a BBQ, using all natural ingredients, which are completely free of artificial colours, flavours and high fructose corn syrup.3. Green Beaver Natural Sunscreen: Natural sunscreens use zinc oxide and titanium dioxide to reflect both UVA and UVB radiation. Ingredients in skin care products can penetrate the skin and circulate in our bloodstream. Choosing a natural sunscreen like Green Beaver is the best way to avoid harmful chemicals while you enjoy being in the sun.4. Bubbie’s Old Fashioned Sauerkraut: this popular Eastern European dish has tons of health benefits and considered a ‘probiotic’ food. Use as a hot dog or burger topping.5. Vegenaise: a vegan option that some say tastes even better than the original recipe. Great for creamy coleslaws, potato & pasta salads, or as a burger topping.6. Wizard’s Organic Worcestershire sauce: This vegan sauce is the perfect ingredient for homemade BBQ sauces and can also be used to make Caesar Cocktails. The best part is that it tastes almost like the real thing but contains absolutely no anchovies or articificial colours & flavours.7. Screamin Brothers: A coconut based ice cream that tastes incredibly delicious and is hypoallergenic friendly. It contains no soy, nuts, or dairy, and is only sweetened with a small amount of unpasteurized honey. Try it with our Edward & Sons ice cream cones which come in a gluten-free option!Thanks to Alex Comrie, Holistic Nutritionist & Life Coach. Alex also works in our nutrition departmet.

JUNE 11 FELDENKRAIS® - Awareness Through Movement®Feldenkrais® offers great potential for re-establishing body~mind connection ~ a blossoming area in the field of neuroplasticity. For an aging population, preventative, organic health solutions such as Feldenkrais® offer hundreds of theme-based lessons which can be effectively applied. It is an excellent system for improving movement and, through neuroplasticity, it works gently, systematically & intelligently with your body & your brain to produce change.

Come and learn about the Awareness Through Movement® process, that helps to reduce tension & improve comfort. This method does not involve stretching or strengthening but rather uses small, gentle movements combined with awareness to bring about posture & easy, effortless movement. These exercises are functional; they revive, & encourage the natural movement patterns we developed as children, but lost track of along the way. Remember what feeling great feels like!
