Is Viral Overload at the Root of Your Symptoms? Understanding EBV and Its Impact on the Body
Have you been feeling chronically tired, anxious, foggy-headed, or hormonally out of balance — even though your tests come back "normal"?
This blog explores the hidden world of viral overload, focusing on Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and other lingering viruses like Herpes Simplex (HSV-1 and HSV-2), Ross River Virus, and Varicella-Zoster (chickenpox and shingles).Many women are unknowingly carrying a low-grade viral burden that may be disrupting:
-
Thyroid function (especially Hashimoto’s and hypothyroid)
-
Hormonal balance in perimenopause
-
Nervous system and mental wellbeing (anxiety, fatigue, insomnia)
-
Immune resilience and inflammation
-
Reproductive health and fertility
These viruses can go dormant and reactivate during stress, hormonal shifts, or burnout, creating a ripple effect across the whole body.
As a naturopath, I work with women to support their immune system, calm inflammation, and bring their bodies back into balance — naturally and holistically.

Amenorrhea (no periods) and Anorexia (disordered eating) - Hypothalamic Amenorrhea: A holistic approach to restoring balance
Have you heard of or experienced the very common hypothalamic amenorrhea, which is a lack of periods due to undereating or undereating carbs. You may have been mistakenly told you have “lean PCOS” when you actually have hypothalamic amenorrhea.
For many women, a regular menstrual cycle is a key indicator of overall health. However, when periods stop unexpectedly—especially in cases of anorexia or disordered eating—it’s a sign that the body is under significant stress. Amenorrhea is a common consequence of restricted eating, nutrient deficiencies, and emotional imbalance. As a naturopath and energy healer, I take a holistic approach in supporting the body to regain balance naturally.
