Dr Ducharme is amazing she is so knowledgeable and caring. Her quest to for new cutting edge methods to help her patients is most impressive. I have been her patient for many years. My Lyme disease would have either crippled me or taken my life if I had not found Dr Ducharme. She is simply the best. Don

Dr. Nicola is a phenomenal doctor. Not only does she bring extensive knowledge and critical thinking to her practice, but she also offers compassionate care. I feel heard and supported in my medical appointments, and this means a lot to me, especially because it took so many years for me to obtain a diagnosis and find a doctor who could help me regain well-being after a long battle with invisible illness. Dr. Nicola is a leader in her space, and I love how she stays on top of emerging information and speaks at conferences. She is well-versed in herbs and naturopathic medicine in addition to allopathic practices, and is able to apply this knowledge based on what each patient needs. Her books are also great resources, and I recommend The Beginner’s Guide to Lyme Disease to friends all the time. She customizes treatment to each patient. This is important to me because of bioindividuality— the best treatment for one patient is not necessarily even the best approach for another patient with the same diagnosis! She is skilled in navigating complex conditions, and working with patients who may have previously been to countless previous doctors in search of effective solutions. I could not be more grateful for Dr. Nicola’s care. She is an amazing doctor, and she has played a pivotal role in my health journey.

You will not find a more qualified practitioner than Dr. Barbara Rush to administer your IV Nutrient therapy or Ozone treatment. Her knowledge, technique and years of experience are apparent. Highly recommended!

Will I have to avoid those foods forever?

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

In some cases, complete avoidance is the best plan. In other cases, three to four months may be sufficient to give the immune system a rest and allow the food to be eaten again.

Are there different types of food allergies?

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

There are two major types of food allergies and two types of antibodies that play an important role in the immune response. IgE reactions are typically rapid in onset (within a few hours), causing symptoms such as asthma, itchy-watery eyes and nose, rash, swelling and acute gastrointestinal distress. In IgE allergies, the relationship between offending food and symptom is usually self-evident.

What are the causes of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

CFS certainly appears to be indicative of a chronically disturbed or compromised immune system. This can be the result of a viral infection, recurrent fungal infections such as candidiasis, allergies and other environmental factors.

HOW SAFE IS PEPTIDE THERAPY?

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

Because peptides naturally occur in every cell, they are extremely safe with an impressively minimal side effect profile. Peptides are dispensed through compounding pharmacies and should be done under the supervision of a licensed medical professional. I would strongly discourage anyone from ordering peptides online. It is imperative to only use pharmaceutical-grade products that we know are clean, high-quality and not contaminated.

WHAT IS PEPTIDE THERAPY?

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

Peptides are short chains of amino acids (baby proteins basically) that the body makes naturally. They act as signaling molecules within the cell and can be viewed as the master regulators of many functions of the body.

Are Bio-identical hormones just for menopause?

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

No, bio-identical hormones can be used for a broad range of conditions, such as irregular menstrual cycles, PMS, infertility and polycystic ovarian syndrome. When a woman is having menstrual cycles, we are able to “map” the cycle, which means that we take saliva samples throughout the month and end up with a graph of the estrogen and progesterone levels throughout the month, as well as the testosterone levels. From this we can see where hormones are deficient or dominant, or if the timing of events in the cycle is skewed. Using natural forms of estrogen and progesterone, we can augment the cycle and regulate it.

What are Bio-identical hormones

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

Bio-identical hormones are forms of hormones that have been created in accordance with the natural hormones of the human body. In other words, they mimic the molecular structure of human hormones more closely than hormones made from the urine of pregnant mares.

What can men do to balance hormones?

RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021
RestorMedicine | Aug 20, 2021

Fortunately, there is something that can be done. With a simple saliva or blood test, we can assess a man’s testosterone levels. We can also measure the SHBG and estrogen levels, to see what the conversion to estrogen looks like. Along with that, and equally important, is to check cortisol and DHEA levels, which reflect adrenal status, and can influence both estrogen and testosterone.
