Elemental Health and Nutrition

Elemental Health and Nutrition Functional Medicine aims to find the root cause of illness by looking deeper into a persons biochemi When this balance becomes disrupted, illness can occur.

Every aspect of your body, even your DNA, is composed of an abundance of vitamins and minerals, which exist in perfect harmony. Nutritional medicine aims to bring the body back into equilibrium through dietary and lifestyle changes, and focused supplementation. A nutritional consultation involves taking a thorough case history, analyzing your diet, and taking lifestyle factors and day-to-day stressors into consideration. This holistic approach helps to get to the true root of your issue, and not simply treat your symptom. The following conditions are among those that can benefit from a nutritional consult.

- Constant stress
- Poor sleep
- Fatigue
- Brain fog
- Anxiety or depression
- Learning difficulties
- High histamine
- Methylation issues
- Poor weight management
- Digestive issues
- Cardiovascular issues

I also have a strong interest in mental health issues, methylation and genetic polymorphisms, which can benefit from targeted functional testing and precise supplementation.

Stop spending $100 on serums if your grocery basket is empty. 🧴

The most expensive creams in the world can’t outperform a diet rich in antioxidants and healthy fats. Think of pomegranates as your internal SPF and walnuts as your natural "filler" for skin elasticity.

When you "Eat Your Skincare," you aren't just chasing a glow—you’re building healthy cells from the inside out.

Which of these skin-loving foods is already in your fridge? Tell me in the comments!

Most people think of "mood" as something that happens entirely in their head. But what if I told you that 95% of your "happy hormone" (serotonin) is actually manufactured in your gut? 🧠

The "Gut-Brain Axis" is a two-way street. If your digestive system is inflamed or out of balance, your mental clarity and mood will be too. This is why "bloated and moody" usually go hand-in-hand.

True nutrition isn't just about weight—it's about fueling the biological factory that manages your happiness.

Stop the sting! 🔥 Did you know bananas are one of the best natural remedies for heartburn?

✅Low-Acid: They won't trigger reflux.

✅High Pectin: This special fiber helps move food through your system faster.

✅Stomach Shield: They help create a protective layer in your gut.

Drop the antacids and grab a banana instead!

The response to our reduced-cost initial appointments has been so well receibved that I’ve decided to extend these savings all the way through the end of January. I know the holidays can be a financially stretched time, and we hope this helps make prioritising your health much more accessible as you head into the new year.

If you’ve been putting off investigating persistent symptoms or chronic health issues, this is the perfect opportunity to start 2026 with clarity. Whether you are struggling with gut issues, fatigue, hormonal imbalances, or complex conditions that haven't responded to conventional treatments, our functional medicine approach focuses on finding the root cause rather than just managing symptoms.

You can eat all the healthy foods in the world, but if your digestion isn't functioning properly, your body won’t absorb the nutrients it needs. 🤔

When digestion is off, even the healthiest meals can pass through without being fully broken down or absorbed, meaning you might miss out on the vital vitamins, minerals, and energy from your food. This is something I often see during my consultations – where patients are eating well but not reaping the benefits because their digestive system isn’t up to the task.

Supporting your digestion isn’t just about what you eat, but how your body processes it. Let’s talk about ways to optimise your gut health and make sure your body gets the full benefit of every meal.

Fermented foods are a powerhouse for your gut health!
They’re rich in probiotics, which help feed the good bacteria in your gut, supporting healthy digestion, immune function, and even mood regulation. Foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, and kefir promote a balanced microbiome, which can lead to better overall health and increased energy levels. If you’re not yet including fermented foods in your diet, it’s a great time to start!

Depression creates real changes in brain activity that we can see and treat.
These images help explain why depression feels so difficult - your brain is working differently. This isn't weakness; it's a medical condition with real, physical effects that respond to treatment.

The encouraging news is that with proper care, these brain changes can improve, and people can feel better.

Well, the outdoor office desk I set up has been great. I get all sorts of visitors! 🌈

Two rainbow lorikeets dropped by when I was prepping my Friday clients last week. Apparently, our deck is the place to be. I can see Kookaburras and hear Koalas too. Not bad!

Working from an outdoor setup has been one of the best decisions I've made. Fresh air and natural light all day

We’ve all been there. You’re sitting at a holiday table and feeling the pressure to keep eating even when you’re already full. But here is your reminder that your body knows best.

The goal is actually pretty simple. Start with smaller portions and really take your time. When you chew slowly and actually taste every bite, you get to enjoy the meal so much more.

Your gut will definitely thank you for the extra breathing room and the gentle pace. 🌿

As 2025 comes to a close, I find myself looking back.....

Reflecting on the past 13 years, I am so deeply grateful for the trust that all of you have placed in me. It is a responsibility I never take lightly. Every conversation we’ve had and every milestone we’ve reached together is built on that foundation of trust, and I want to say a sincere thank you for allowing me to be a part of your health journey.

Helping you feel like your best self is what keeps me inspired every single day. I look forward to supporting you with the same care and dedication in the new year.

Wishing you and your family a safe, restful, and a very happy holiday season! ✨

Case Study: A 20-year-old woman came to see me after experiencing daily nausea and vomiting for over a year. The symptoms would hit straight after meals and were significantly worse during stressful periods. 😰

Rather than diving into complex protocols, I started with the fundamentals: breathing.

I taught her simple deep breathing techniques before meals to help her nervous system shift out of stress mode. When we're stressed, our body suppresses stomach acid production—we literally can't digest properly when we're in fight-or-flight.

The results?

Month 1: Significantly less nausea, no vomiting
Month 2: Nausea completely resolved

This is a perfect reminder that we can't discount the basics. Sometimes the most effective intervention isn't the most complicated one. Before reaching for supplements or restrictive diets, ask yourself: Am I actually in a state where my body can digest food properly?

Your nervous system controls your digestive system. Getting that right first can change everything.
