Who would have thought, 90% of serotonin (our feel good/happy) hormone is produced in our gut. 💕

The amazing thing about our digestive system I share with my clients every day;is that our digestive system has its own nervous system.
Incredible.
I work with folk who feel exhausted, feel
Like their digestive system is all over the place, skin problems and gut health is always part of that picture 🌻.

Loving the listening process folk share about their healing journey. Aches and pains, bloating, stool changes and reflux are our body language. Take a stand for yourself, look after the best most beautiful thing we have.

Dahl is one of those super easy dinners that we can make, meal prep and freeze for another day. I find soaking my red lentils for a couple of hours before making Dahl adds to the consistency and delicious 😋 texture. Gut health winner and cheap ✅

Eating the most amazing diet. Yet this does not equal that, our gut still doesn’t feel right and there’s a few wakeful nights when I’m in pain. ❓

Sound familiar? If our digestive system is not working properly our capacity to digest nutrients optimally is reduced.

There are tells that our body signals our gut health need nurturing.
Bloating, pain in our gut, wind up, or down, burping and stool or poo 💩 change.
Follow the wisdom of your body, book an appointment to get all that nagging gut stuff sorted.

Monday fun day. We discussed how Monday’s seem to flow on with the easiest made meal for dinner.
Our favourite hack is to roast a bunch of heirloom tomatoes, 🍅 splashed with salt, pepper, an inch of sugar and balsamic vinegar.

🍅The roast tomatoes 🍅 becomes a great base for sauces, for pasta, pizza, salad, whatever you like. Store in the fridge for a delicious 😋 punch of flavour to meals.
We choose heirloom tomato 🍅 Because they just taste better ❤️

Meal prep feels like self care 💛. I love making Dahl to create rich, nutrient dense high fibre meals. Shimmering gloss of Dahl with lentils high in fibre for beneficial gut bacteria with anti inflammatory spices like black pepper, turmeric and ginger 🫚.

Zonulin is a protein made by our gut, it’s a gate keeper and allows nutrients in and out of our gut to the bloodstream.
Gluten intolerance, food allergies, gut inflammation can increase zonulin.
