A Greener Way to Health, Maybe

Because I know you’re all dying to know how my search for a greener allergy solution has been going I thought I’d catch you up.

Now, first off, my allergies are not limited to just seasonal, they also include food: fruit, vegetables, soy, dairy, nuts and seeds. So yeah, pretty much everything and it's been getting worse. Yay, for me.

So about a month ago I decided that it might be a better idea to see a professional to help me with my freaky allergies then to just keep bumbling along by myself. So in an effort to get allergy free naturally I decided to go see a Naturopath. I first heard about naturopathic medicine on the blog Health Wanted and it sounded pretty interesting.

Naturopathy is all about natural remedies (no man made drugs) and the body’s ability to heal itself.

So I googled naturopath and found a clinic in Chico and made an appointment. Before even having the appointment I had to fill out this 10 page packet about my medical and emotional history. It was pretty exhaustive and took me a couple of days, but I thought if this is what it takes so be it.

Finally my appointment day came and I was pretty excited that I was about to find a natural, healthy way to deal with my allergies (and finally be able to eat without having an allergy attack).

That’s what I thought anyways, until I got there.
