      Acidosis

      The equilibrium of the human body is regulated with more precision than a Swiss watch. If your body's pH level* is out of balance, it can be a key factor in developing health problems or simply prevent it from performing at its full capacity.

      Allergies

      An allergy is an abnormal or excessive immune system reaction generated by contact with a substance that is generally foreign to the body. A substance that triggers an immune response is called an antigen, but the term "allergen" is also used in the case of an allergy.

      Alzheimer's Disease (early stage)

      Alzheimer's disease is an incurable neurodegenerative disease (i.e. the progressive loss of neurons) of the cerebral tissue, which leads to progressive and irreversible loss of mental functions, particularly the memory. It is the most common form of dementia in humans. The disease was first identified by German psychiatrist Alois Alzheimer in 1906.

      Amenorrhea

      Amenorrhea is the absence of a menstrual period in post puberty, non menopaused women. It is of course most frequently due to pregnancy. In other cases, it can be the only symptom of a pathology or one of many other symptoms.

      Andropause

      Andropause is a biological phenomenon similar to menopause in women, which can affect men between the ages of 40 and 55. Both disorders are characterized by a drop in hormone levels: estrogen in women and testosterone in men. Bodily changes are very gradual in men, and may be accompanied by changes in attitude and mood, fatigue, and loss of energy, sexual desire and physical agility.

      Angina

      Angina (from the Latin angina or angor pectoris, meaning "a strangling feeling in the chest"), is a cardiac symptom characterized by chest pain caused by oxygen deprivation in the heart muscle. It is most often due to reduced blood flow to the coronary artery (i.e. coronary stenosis). This lack of oxygen to the heart is called myocardial ischemia.

      Anxiety

      Anxiety is a psychological and physiological state characterized by somatic, emotional, cognitive and behavioural components. In the absence or presence of psychological stress, anxiety can create feelings of fear, worry and uneasiness. Anxiety is considered a normal reaction to stressful situations. However, if it becomes excessive, it can be classified as an "anxiety disorder."

      Arthritis

      Arthritis is a disease that affects the joints. It is also known as chronic degenerative joint disease. Arthritis is characterized by mechanical, diurnal pain and difficulty moving one's joints. The cartilage surface surrounding the joints cracks and erodes, eventually disappearing. Abnormal bone growth then occurs, hindering joint movement.

      Breast Cancer

      Breast cancer is characterized by a malignant tumour in the mammary gland. In other words, it originates in the ducto/lobular cells of the breast, which are the milk-producing cells, and occurs predominantly in women (it occurs 200 times less often in men, who also have breasts, though they are much smaller).

      Bursitis

      Hygroma or bursitis is an inflammation of one or several bursae. A bursa is a small sac containing synovial fluid, which facilitates joint movements and the sliding of organs connected to the joints (e.g. muscles and tendons). Tendinitis is a painful tendon disorder caused by trauma, which triggers inflammation.

      Cancer (general)

      Cancer is a disease characterized by significant abnormal cell growth in the body's normal tissue, such that it threatens the tissue's survival. These cells are all derived from the same cancer-causing cell, which acquires certain characteristics enabling it to divide itself indefinitely. Over the course of the disease, cells can migrate from their production site and form metastases.

      Cystitis

      Cystitis is characterized by an inflammation of the bladder. It is most often caused by bacteria (i.e. coliforms, or fungi naturally found in the intestine), but may also be the result of a toxic agent from anti-cancer drugs or radiation therapy. Cystitis frequently affects women, as the female body has a short urethra, which increases the risk of a urinary infection.

      Dermatitis

      The skin is an emunctory, or an elimination organ. That is why naturopaths have always recommended elimination diets to patients suffering from eczema. Eczema and psoriasis can also be caused by acidosis, nutritional deficiencies (e.g. vitamin A, zinc or magnesium), food intolerances (see our article on Food Allergies), or difficulty metabolizing fatty acids, in the case of atopic eczema.

      Dysmenorrhea

      Cyclical pain associated with menstruation. Primary dysmenorrhea, which appears in adolescence and tapers off or disappears by one's first pregnancy, is often due to nutritional factors or the liver's ability to efficiently eliminate estrogen. Dysmenorrhea is often linked to endometriosis, in which tissue from the uterine lining appears outside its normal location.

      Endometriosis

      The presence of endometrial tissue (from the uterine lining) outside the uterine cavity. The most common locations are the ovaries, the posterior broad ligament and the recto-uterine pouch. The likely cause is the reflux of endometrial cells by the Fallopian tubes during menstruation.

      Hypothyroidism

      Insufficient hormonal secretion by the thyroid gland, which slows down the body's entire metabolism. Hypothyroidism can have several causes, but the predominant one appears to be the cumulative effect of stress on the body. One researcher even suggests that this condition be treated by helping the stress glands rather than through hormone replacement therapy.

      Infertility

      Infertility has become a pandemic. More and more couples are turning to artificial fertilization due to fertility problems. Researchers have uncovered two key reasons for this phenomenon. Substances that mimic estrogen, called xenoestrogens, are in our environment and in our food, which affect fertility in both men and women. Others have pointed out that continuous stress and nutritional deficiencies may also play a major role.

      Memory Loss

      Loss of memory and concentration is a growing phenomenon in today's society, which can be explained by several factors. First, we are always "on," meaning that as long as we are awake, we no longer seem capable of stopping. The second factor, which stems from the first, is the increase of constant stress. Hypoglycemia also plays a key role. Finally, a lack of oxygen and certain nutritional deficiencies can worsen this phenomenon.

      Menopause

      Menopause (from the Greek men (month) and pausis (cessation)), also called "the climacteric," is the cessation of menstrual periods. During menopause, women have insufficient ovarian follicles, either because they were used during the ovarian cycle or because they degenerated during follicular atresia. It is divided into several stages: perimenopause (a period of irregular menstrual cycles preceding menopause and the cessation of periods during the year following it) and postmenopause (confirmed menopause).
