I’m so excited. We are officially well into May and this month I am actually taking my first three day vacation in a long, long time! I have not taken a vacation — not even one single weekend off — in over two years straight. So to have a Friday, Saturday and a Sunday to hang out with friends by a lake and sleep in and stay up late and watch the kids swim and watch the sun set… yep, it’ll be heaven. With all of this beautiful warmer weather, I’ve had lots of questions come up (in the […]

How To Prevent Bug Bites While Grounding Outdoors

Grounding, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

The weather is warming up here where I live… …and this always means my inbox is full of emails from patients and readers asking: How can you reduce your chance of tick bites (and other insect bites) while still connecting to the earth outside? Especially with the latest press about the Zika virus, patients are wanting to know more than ever how to reduce their risk of mosquito bites and yet continue the beautiful, healing practice of touching the earth outside daily. I really don’t want you to limit or stop your healing practice of connecting to

Warmer Weather = Stinkier Pits… Unless You Do This!

Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Last week I presented a recent study that revealed: If you avoid the sun, your mortality rate is actually higher than the mortality rate of a heavy smoker! So instead of avoiding the sun, I encouraged you to get out there this spring and summer and enjoy the weather! I also gave you some of my recommendations for keeping your skin safe while going outside under those damaging UV rays. But when you are outside in that beautiful sunshine, it’s not just the UV exposure… it’s also the sweat! For odor protection, I don’t recommend antiperspirant or deodorant…

My Fav Ways To Prevent Skin Cancer

Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

This month SUMMER BEGINS! So today I want to share with you the sunscreen that I personally use to protect my children’s tender skin and my own skin as well. I’ll also walk you through my thoughts on the whole sunscreen dilemma… for us it is only our THIRD line of defense against skin cancer and in many instances I’d rather use no sunscreen at all than use the chemical sunscreens on the market. Why? Keep reading… In years past, I’ve recommended Colorescience Sunforgettable SPF 30 powder, which is a powdered form of titanium dioxide that is micronized

Summer Skin: A Party For Yeast

Female Health, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Yeast overgrowth is absolutely no fun. And it can really get worse in the warmer months as yeast love nothing more then moist, hot, sticky skin/mucosa to flourish on. I remember working with a sweet older female patient that was absolutely miserable with Candida growth all over her skin… and it was particularly bad underneath her breasts where they touched her upper abdomen.
