Conditions our Naturopaths work with

At TruMed clinic we work with a large range of health conditions.

Fatigue, digestive issues and skin concerns are most commonly seen.

Our Therapies

More about the conditions we see:

Skin Conditions

The main skin concerns our Naturopaths see are acne, eczema, psoriasis and hair loss

In our experience, proper testing is of high importance to the resolution of many common skin concerns.

Our Naturopaths frequently work with Food Sensitivity and Food Allergy Testing to help understand the origins of many acne and eczema cases.

DUTCH urinary hormone testing has proven to be a key tool in understanding acne and hair loss cases at our clinic.

Urinary hormone testing allows our Naturopaths to better understand male and female hormones and their metabolites so we can better interject naturopathic therapies.

Women's Health

The main Women's Health concerns our Naturopaths see are menopause, PMS & PCOS

Understandably, hormone testing is frequently key in Women's Health.

For many years, our Naturopaths relied on Salivary and Blood hormone testing to better understand many Women's Health concerns.

More recently, we've heavily incorporated DUTCH urinary hormone testing as a key methodology for Women's Health.

DUTCH testing often gives our Naturopathic Doctors more detailed data on your hormones and their metabolites versus saliva.

With certain Women's Health conditions such as menopause, we may refer to our Nurse Practitioner for a bioidentical hormone evaluation.

Digestive Disorders

The main digestive concerns our Naturopaths see are IBS, bloating & constipation

Dr. Muradov has always heavily relied on Food Sensitivity Testing as a cornerstone methodology with regards to many digestive concerns.

We've observed that food sensitivities can be contributor to a wide range disorders, including digestive issues.

Testing can allow our Naturopaths to make detailed dietary recommendations.

Our Naturopaths may run SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth) Testing as well as Stool Microbiology to better understand microbiome imbalances.

Our Naturopaths also work with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's).

Hormone imbalances

The main hormone imbalances we see are Thyroid, PMS & Adrenal

Our Naturopathic Doctors often run blood, saliva and urinary hormone testing to gather data with regards to hormonal health. 

With regards to Thyroid health our Naturopaths rely on blood and urine testing as well as clinical history to get the majority of our data. 

DUTCH urinary hormone testing can give our Naturopathic Doctors a detailed understanding of sex hormones and their breakdown products for female concerns such as PMS.

To better understand Adrenal issues our Naturopaths typically prefer either Saliva Cortisol or Dutch Urinary Cortisol measurements.

Food Reactions

Our Naturopaths are versed in Food Allergy, Sensitivity & Intolerance

Our Naturopathic Doctors offer IgG4/IgE or IgE Food Allergy Testing at our clinic for patients dealing with rapid food reactions. 

Food allergy is well recognized in medicine as a cause of immediate "type 1 hypersensitivity reactions" mediated by the immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody.  

Another type of food reaction, sometimes described as food sensitivity can bring about reactions hours to days after ingestion, often mediated by the IgG antibody.

Food sensitivity is associated with many different health conditions.

Inspired by the work of Jonathan Wright MD and Alan Gaby MD, Dr. Muradov has long incorporated extensive Food Allergy and Sensitivity Testing as part of his Naturopathic practice.

We usually take the blood samples in-house in our IV Therapy lounge. 

Mental Health

Our Naturopaths frequently work with anxiety and depression. 

An ND can order laboratory evaluations to better understand underlying physiological factors—such as thyroid health, nutrient levels, or hormone imbalances—that may impact mental health.

We consider a number of different dietary, hormonal, herbal and functional medicine therapies in the care of mental health concerns.

We've seen that a Naturopathic treatment program can produce positive results in many common mental health issues.

Our Naturopathic Doctors have occasionally seen results using IV Therapy for mental health concerns.

Thyroid Concerns

Our Naturopaths are experienced in Thyroid health 

Our Naturopaths usually assess free hormone levels (Free T3 & Free T4) and Thyroid antibodies in addition to TSH testing.

It is common for us to also do adrenal assessments simultaneously with thyroid assessments.

Fatigue, Depression, Infertility, PMS, Menstrual Disturbances, Brain Fog, Constipation, Hair Loss, Low Libido, and Weight gain are some of the common concerns that may involve Thyroid assessments. 

Alternative thyroid therapies often involve nutritional and herbal supports.

Occasionally we refer in house to our Nurse Practitioner for assessment of alternative thyroid therapies.

Multiple Sclerosis

Dr. Muradov knows MS. 

Dr. Muradov as he has been dealing with an aggressive variant of MS since 2007 so naturally it became a part of his Naturopathic practice.

Ultimately, the take home message with regards to Natural medicine and MS is that the end point of demyelination is the same for all patients but the path to get there has differences.

For some patients we focus on gut health, for others we assess toxicities and for others we focus on infections as potential underlying factors of immune dysregulation.

Autoimmunity can be terribly challenging but for common autoimmune diseases like MS we have alternative options that can be helpful. 

All the Naturopathic Doctors at TruMed work with autoimmune concerns but Dr. Muradov, for obvious reasons, deals with most of the MS patients.

We usually focus on relapse frequency, severity and progression as well as symptomatic supports (energy, pain, cognition etc).

Food sensitivity testing, stool digestive analyses, viral, bacterial and fungal testing and toxicity testing are  areas our Naturopathic doctors typically consider.

What can a Naturopath help with?

We get questions all the time about specific conditions.

Can a Naturopath help with Acne?

Our Naturopaths work with Acne all the time.

First, diet is key. We've seen lots of cases where foods contribute. So dietary changes or food allergy testing might be used by your Naturopath.

Secondly, hormone testing is frequently used - we often use "DUTCH" urinary testing which is really helpful for looking at female hormones as well as male hormones and their acne causing metabolites. 

Diet is a cornerstone of Naturopathic Acne support.

Can a Naturopath help with Anxiety or Depression? 

Yes, naturopaths can help by offering supportive care for individuals managing mood concerns, chronic stress, and emotional health.

Naturopathic care focuses on identifying physiological factors that influence mood and nervous system function.

This process often includes screening for hormonal variations—such as thyroid dysfunction, adrenal stress patterns, or sex hormone imbalances—alongside evaluating key nutrient deficiencies involved in neurotransmitter synthesis.

Using objective lab assessments, naturopaths design individualized care plans that may include evidence-informed botanical remedies, targeted nutritional support, and lifestyle strategies.

When pharmaceutical medications are involved, natural options are carefully evaluated to ensure safe, complementary integration.

Can a Naturopath help with Fatigue?

Fatigue is the #1 concern that our Naturopaths see at our clinic.

Dr Muradov has extensive experience with fatigue.  

A naturopathic approach to fatigue focuses on evaluating the underlying biological drivers of energy production.

This typically begins with targeted lab assessments examining thyroid function, adrenal cortisol rhythms, sex hormone levels, and baseline nutrient markers like iron and vitamin B12.

Care plans are tailored to your specific test results and may combine personalized dietary strategies, targeted supplementation, lifestyle modifications, or IVsupport.

Can a Naturopath help with IBS?

Digestive concerns are seen extremely frequently at our Edmonton office.

Naturopaths conduct comprehensive clinical evaluations to explore potential underlying triggers behind gastrointestinal issues.

Depending on your presentation, diagnostic testing may include food sensitivity panels, Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) breath tests, or comprehensive stool analysis to assess microbiome balance and digestive function.

Based on these findings, naturopaths develop targeted strategies which may include identifying and removing dietary triggers, balancing gut flora, supporting enzymatic digestion, and restoring overall gastrointestinal integrity.

Can a Naturopath help with weight loss?

Our Naturopaths look at impeding factors to effective weight loss.

Naturopathic care investigates key regulatory hormones—including thyroid markers, cortisol dynamics, insulin sensitivity, and sex hormones—to understand how your body manages and stores energy.

By pairing objective lab data with evidence-informed dietary strategies, nutrition counseling, and lifestyle adjustments, naturopaths help create a sustainable, individualized health roadmap designed to support your long-term metabolic health.
