🌿 NEW REEL SERIES: Functional Testing Explained 🌿

Ever wondered why we recommend certain tests at Inner Fit Nutrition — or what they actually tell us about your health?
Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing a new series of short reels that break down some of the most insightful functional tests we use in clinic to uncover the root causes behind your symptoms.
✨ You’ll learn about:
🔹 SIBO Breath Testing – to identify bacterial overgrowth driving bloating, IBS and fatigue
🔹 CoBiome Stool Testing – to assess your gut microbiome and digestive function
🔹 DUTCH Hormone Testing – to explore adrenal and s*x hormone balance through every stage of womanhood
🔹 Biocompatibility Hair Testing – to identify foods and products that may be causing inflammation or intolerance
🔹Vaginal Microbiome Testing – to support optimal vaginal health, fertility, and symptom relief
🔹and heaps more!

Each reel will give you a clear understanding of what the test is, who it’s for, and how it helps shape your personalised treatment plan.
If you’ve ever felt like “something’s off” but your standard blood tests come back normal, these are the tools that can finally help you find answers.

Keep an eye out for the first video dropping soon — I can’t wait to share this series with you!

😴 “Your blood tests are normal.”

So why do you still feel exhausted?

So many people are told everything looks fine on paper — yet they’re still tired, foggy, moody, and running on caffeine just to get through the day.

Here’s the truth 👉 “Normal” doesn’t always mean optimal.

Standard blood tests often only look at the basics, and the reference ranges are broad. You can feel awful long before anything shows up as “abnormal.”

When fatigue is ongoing, it’s so important to dig deeper into key areas that often get missed. If your doctor isn't considering the following testing then its time to find a different health care practitioner!

✅ Vitamin B12 & Folate – These nutrients are essential for energy production and nervous system health. Low or even borderline levels can cause fatigue, low mood, and brain fog.

✅ Iron Studies (not just haemoglobin!) – Iron stores (ferritin) can be low even when haemoglobin looks normal. If ferritin drops below optimal levels (around 50–100), energy, mood, and concentration often suffer.

✅Full Thyroid Panel (TSH, T4, T3 & Thyroid Antibodies) – A basic thyroid test often only includes TSH. To truly understand thyroid function, you need to see how well the thyroid hormones are being converted and whether autoimmunity (Hashimoto’s or Graves’) is present.

✅ Cortisol – Chronic stress can disrupt your natural cortisol rhythm, leaving you wired at night and exhausted in the morning. Checking cortisol helps uncover the stress–fatigue connection.

✅ Blood Glucose & Insulin – Even slight blood sugar imbalances or early insulin resistance can cause daily energy crashes, sugar cravings, and brain fog. These are often missed if only fasting glucose is tested.

Together, these tests tell a much clearer story about your energy, hormones, and overall vitality.

As a nutritionist, I don’t just look at whether your results are “normal.” I interpret from a more integrative approach.

If you’re tired of being told “everything’s fine,” but you know your body is asking for help, it might be time to look a little deeper 💛

Send me a message or book a consult, and we can discuss what is really going on further.

IBS and diet go hand-in-hand, but there’s no one-size-fits-all.

Some helpful dietary tools:
✅A short-term low FODMAP diet to identify trigger foods. This is not a long term solution to your problems though, as reducng high FODMAP foods for too long can interfere with the health of the large bowel and microbiome.
✅Removing or reducing common culprits like gluten and dairy
✅Balancing meals with protein, healthy fats, and gentle fiber
✅Staying hydrated (sipping water instead of chugging with meals)

The key is personalisation. What works beautifully for one gut may not for another. That’s why working with someone to tailor your approach can make such a difference.

What’s one food you’ve noticed makes your gut happy (or not so happy)?
Have you been on an elimination diet in the past and worked out what foods are problematic?

28/08/2025

Did you know IBS is a diagnosis of exclusion? That means you’re often told you have IBS simply because no other explanation has been found.
But symptoms like bloating, cramping, or irregular bowels can also be caused by:
➡️ SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth)
➡️ Parasites or yeast imbalance
➡️ Low digestive enzyme output
➡️ Gut inflammation

That’s why functional testing (like SIBO breath tests or comprehensive stool testing) is so valuable . It moves you from just managing symptoms to actually treating the cause.

You don’t have to guess. Your gut is trying to tell you something!

Have you ever had gut testing done? If so, did you discover something you would never have considered to be an issue? Let me know in the comments

IBS is complex, and different approaches can offer different kinds of support.

👩‍⚕️ A conventional doctor may suggest medications, fibre supplements, a low FODMAP diet, or stress management techniques.

🌿 A natural health practitioner looks at the root cause, with tools like SIBO or stool testing, food sensitivity work, gut healing protocols, and lifestyle strategies.

The truth? Both approaches can have value. Often, the most powerful results come from combining the two.

If you have been diagnosed with IBS and struggle with knowing what to do next, it might be time to look outside the square and get to the root cause.

What's been your experience with treating IBS? Have you found anything that worked to resolve your symptoms, natural or conventional medicine based?
I would love to hear what's been a game changer for you!

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) affects around 1 in 7 people worldwide. Yet many go years without answers, because symptoms are often dismissed as “just stress” or “just food.”

✨ Common signs include:

Abdominal pain or cramps (often eased after going to the toilet)

Bloating that worsens as the day goes on

Diarrhoea, constipation — or both

Fatigue, poor sleep, and sometimes mucous in the stool

The truth is, IBS isn’t always the end of the story. With the right testing and thorough case taking, it’s often possible to uncover the cause behind these symptoms. From there, a personalised plan with tailored dietary guidance and targeted supplementation can provide lasting relief.

Today we received a lovely email from a client who we have been treating for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)

After just 2 weeks, she is feeling amazing!

Her Symptoms included the following :
-Significant bloating and distension
-Upper epigastric pain
-Impaired weight loss
-Reactivity to different foods
-Smell wind
-All over inflammation

As a SIBO Food Roadmap Practitioner, I love helping my clients take control of their health and guide them on what they need to be eating whilst treating this condition. Supplements and antimicrobials alone aren't always enough, dietary intervention is paramount for a successful long term treatment.

If you are experiencing any of the above symptoms and have been told "it is just IBS", or "just go on a FODMAP diet" then its time to change health care professionals, and get to the root cause of your issues.

You don't need to suffer!

PM us for more info or to have a chat about how we can help
