Rajma Masala Recipe 😋👉🏼 . Kidney beans are very nutritious and great source of #plantbased protein. One-cup serving size of cooked kidney beans contains about 15 grams of both protein and fiber. Dietary fiber is able to stimulate the productionof gastric juices and promote peristalticmotion, which keeps the bowels moving normally. Regular consumption of these fiber-rich beans can help prevent symptoms of constipation and bloating, while also lowering your risk of hemorrhoids and ulcers. . . . . #health #organic #food #wellness #medicine #nutrition #kidneybeans #saturday #sehri #wellnesswednesday #meatlessmondays #may #recipes #healthy #hearthealth #inflammation #guthealth #vegan #vegetarian #iftar #iftari #ramadan2019 #nutritionist #np #naturopathic #healthyliving #holisticlifestyle #ramadan #desifoodblog @wellnessvianutrition https://www.instagram.com/p/BxoEtyagVNw/?igshid=27v4r91sw1dz

During Ramadan, it has been customary for Pakistanis Muslims to drink rooh afza. I used to drink it when I was growing up but I have found alternatives which are much better. Why? . 1️⃣First off, rooh afza has very high amount of added sugar. Sugar that is added to processed foods is much worse than natural sugar in whole foods like fruits and vegetables. If you were to drink just one of these sugary drinks every day, and not cut back on calories elsewhere, you could gain up to 5 pounds in a year. Beyond weight gain, routinely drinking these sugar-loaded beverages can increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic diseases. 2️⃣Secondly, it contains Red food coloring number 40 which is derived from petroleum.  Most dyes which are ingested are secreted from the body but they still have potential for causing serious side effects such as hypersensitivity, swelling in the mouth and even hives. . 🥬🥤Instead of indulging in  rooh afza, try this Tropical Detox Smoothie for #ifatri! . . #iftari #smoothie #detox #ramadan2019 #ramadan #ramzan #wellness #healthyliving #holisticlifestyle #sugarfree #roohafza # #wellnesswednesday #desifoodblog #tropical #sugar #themoreyouknow #diabetes #guthealth #hearthealth #weightloss #health #organic #vegan #naturopathic #nutrition #smoothie #may @wellnessvianutrition https://www.instagram.com/p/BxNNiqpgVwT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c83xf4jpumgr

🔹Our bodies are much smarter than our minds, so as we rush around, focus on the external world, ignore ourselves – our bodies have to speak up like a kid throwing a temper tantrum when they want attention. They do this in the form of illness, fatigue, stress and more. All of these things are big fat stop signs begging us to slow down and pay attention to what's going on inside. . 🔹Our bodies speak to us every single day. For example, some people experience a racing heart because they're nervous about having a tough conversation. Others feel low energy for the same reason. Stress may cause one person's stomach to churn and another to start sweating excessively. . 🔹Every choice we make matter. What you eat. What you drink. How you speak to yourself and others matters. The health of your relationships matter. It's all interconnected and it's affecting your body daily. So why not give it a list? 🔹Eat mostly a plant-rich diet 🔹Hydrate 🔹Respect it. It is a gift that enables you to lead a wonderful life. 🔹Surround yourself with loving, supportive and compassionate people. 🔹Rest. Rest. Rest. 🔹Stop being so verbally abusive to your body. (you know what I mean) . . . #naturopathicmedicine #knowyourbody #listen #stress #anxiety #depression #takerest #treatyourself #awareness #mindbody #tired #sleep #alternativemedicine #holistic #naturopathic #ND #wellness #health #hormonehealth #diabetes #hormoneimbalance #womenshealth #femalehealth #womeninmedicine #weightissues #nutrition #diet #payattention #selfcare https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu2alHmgeOg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fmsmmdda8rae

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) affects 5%-10% of all women of reproductive age making it the most common endocrine disorder among women. PCOS is diagnosed based on the presence of irregular ovulation, high androgens (male sex hormones – testosterone, DHEA), and/or polycystic ovaries but clinical picture of PCOS varies widely from woman to woman and can often be misdiagnosed. Women with PCOS have an increased chance of infertility due to hormone imbalances (insulin, androgens, estrogens, LH, FSH, thyroid, cortisol, etc). . Taking a naturopathic approach to PCOS is quite different.  We look into your whole health history to find out what may have lead to this imbalance in the first place. We will review what lifestyle factors and stresses may be obstacles to your healing. Lab work and imaging will also be reviewed to guide us in re-balancing the endocrine system. Treatment will include education around lifestyle and dietary changes that can support your body.  And we may use tools including herbs, homeopathy, vitamins, and supplements to regulate your hormones, blood sugar, and mood naturally. Interested in getting to the root cause of your PCOS?

‼️Did you know hormone status, including reabsorption and excretion of hormones and their building blocks, is highly affected by gut health and nutrition? ✳️Your digestive system is one of the most important systems in your whole body. ✳️If your body cannot properly digest, absorb nutrients, and eliminate waste products, then it’s nearly impossible to achieve optimal health.✳️Even if you eat an ideal diet, you may have impaired nutrient absorption, energy production, and digestive issues which can furthermore lead to the development of inflammation and allergies. ✳️The digestive tract also houses a significant portion of your immune system that keeps microbes and allergens from getting into our bodies.✳️One of the most important factors in achieving optimal gut health is determining the diet and dietary choices that work best for each individual. ‼️There is no “one size fits all” approach when it comes to health and diet choices. Determining which foods work best, and which do not, for each individual is a highly important process. 👉🏼 If interested in giving yourself a happy and healthy gut, reach out to make an appointment. #hormones #guthealth #healthylifestyle #health #wellness #Monday #mondaymotivations #cleanse #detox, #allergies, #inflammation #diet #lifestyle #holisticlifestyle #eatsmart #digest #autoimmunedisease #skinhealth #acne #stress #depression #naturopathicmedicine #nutrition #drhumaira #natureshum #betterhealth #pcos #january  #food https://www.instagram.com/p/BsmbICSA1ke/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=afav4qz9r9dm

Health is of paramount importance, but many people do not make eating well and exercising a priority until their health deteriorates. And when they do, their exercise and diet plans have an expiration date, either they see no results or see results and think that's "enough health for me". You must live in a balanced state so that you can be at your optimal level in all aspects of your life. Instead of having an expiration date for your exercise and diet plan, why not make eating healthy and working out part of your daily lifestyle. Eat more greens, get more fresh air, meditate, not just for a few months, but for the rest of your life. ‼️NO ONE IS EVER TOO BUSY NOT TO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. ✳️Take 5min a day to destress, stretch, laugh, meal prep, etc. It's a new year, become a better you, a healthier you. Are you willing to take this challenge? . . . #health #wellness #healthy #nutrition #naturopathicmedicine #healthyliving #newyearresolution #resolution #healthtip #2019 #wisdomwednesday #wellnesstip #wellness #wellnesswednesday #holistichealth #eatsmart #healthyliving #autoimminedisease #skinhealth #guthealth #eyehealth #inflammation #stress #anxiety #depression #mentalhealth #exercise https://www.instagram.com/p/BsIgKVAALSx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ylehljs2qhfr

"Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy." —Thich Nhat Hanh . Did you know smiling stimulates the release of neuropeptides which work toward fighting off stress? Neuropeptides are tiny molecules that allow nerve cells to communicate. They facilitate messaging to the whole body when we are happy, sad, angry, depressed, or excited. The feel-good neurotransmitters — dopamine, endorphins and serotonin — are all released when smiling and/or laughing. This not only relaxes your body but can also lower your heart rate and blood pressure. Endorphins also act as a natural pain reliever and Serotonin release serves as an anti-depressant/mood lifter. . Smiling is also contagious. So here I am trying to make you smile and increase your neurotransmitters. Is it working? 😉 https://www.instagram.com/p/Br6lcQHAEwX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=115ed9qim14c5
