Anxiety isn’t just “in your head.”
It’s often linked to inflammation and an overworked nervous system.

Omega-3s support calming pathways in the brain and help reduce inflammatory signals that keep the body stuck in alert mode. They don’t switch anxiety off, but they can help soften the constant edge many people live with.

Regular intake over weeks tends to be more supportive than taking it only when anxiety spikes. For some, this looks like feeling slightly steadier, not suddenly anxiety-free.

Your brain is mostly fat.
Not in a bad way. In a this-is-how-it-works way.

Omega-3s help keep brain cells flexible so messages can move smoothly. That matters for memory, focus, and emotional regulation. When these fats are low, the brain can feel slower, noisier, or harder to settle.

If you’re feeling foggy or flat, starting with food can be a gentle first step. Oily fish a couple of times a week, or daily plant sources like chia and flax, can support brain function over time. Many people notice their thinking feels clearer when these become regular.

Some nights dinner looks like this 🍨

My nice cream recipe is laughably simple and dangerously good:
• 1 cup pawpaw (aka papaya)
• 1 frozen banana
• 1 scoop salted caramel collagen powder
—or—
• 2 tsp cacao + 1 tsp honey + 1 scoop plain collagen

Blend it all up in the Thermomix or food processor and boom: instant ice cream. No churn, no fuss, no regrets.

It’s the perfect post-dinner treat on a warm night… or the dinner itself when life feels chaotic and it’s too hot to care.

And yes, it’s always served in a mug. This became compulsory when I moved into a house with no plates—just mugs. Now it’s a thing. Me and my son eat all desserts this way.

Highly recommend mug desserts and low expectations of adulthood ✨

Struggling to build muscle, even when you’re training hard and eating the right things?

For men, muscle gain is a quiet barometer of overall health — especially gut health.
Protein is one of the hardest nutrients for the body to digest when the gut isn’t functioning well. You need strong stomach acid, active digestive enzymes, and a healthy gut lining to break protein down and actually absorb it.

If your gains have stalled, it may not be your effort… it might be your digestion.

Do you also experience any of these?

• Bloating
• Constipation or diarrhoea
• Gas or burping
• Discomfort after meals
• Reflux or a heavy stomach

These are all signs your gut could use some support.

Your GP says your gut tests are normal…
but you’re still bloated, reacting to everything, or running to the toilet?

That’s because standard tests check for disease — not function.

Functional assessment picks up the patterns that cause symptoms long before disease shows up.
There’s always a reason. And we can find it.

If you don’t feel fine, it’s time to dig deeper.

🧠 Feeling foggy, forgetful, or just not as sharp lately?
Brain fog isn’t a personality flaw — it’s often a sign your body is running on empty.

Chronic stress.
Gut imbalance.
Poor sleep.
Blood sugar swings.
Nutrient depletion.
👉 All of these can dull your focus, motivation, and mental clarity.

The good news?
When we stabilise the nervous system and rebuild your energy stores, clarity often returns.

I’m Kerry, a qualified naturopath, and I help women regain their energy, mental sharpness, and confidence in their day-to-day life.

🥴 Done the gut detox, the parasite cleanse… and still not feeling right?
You’re not alone. Quick fixes can give temporary relief — but they don’t repair the real issues underneath.

Inflammation.
Dysbiosis.
Irritation.
Stress.
Motility.
Nutrient depletion.
👉 These are the layers that actually drive bloating, reflux, IBS, and unpredictable gut flare-ups.

Real gut healing isn’t a 7-day cleanse.
It’s a process: calm → heal → seal → repopulate.

I’m Kerry, a gut-focused naturopath, and I help you understand the root cause so you can stop fearing food, stop fearing symptoms, and start feeling in control again.

If you’re ready for grounded, evidence-informed gut support (not fads), hit Follow — I share simple gut tips and guidance every week.

Why Fixing One Gut Issue Often Solves Three

Ever noticed that when one gut symptom improves, the rest start to follow? That’s no coincidence — it’s how your digestive system is designed.

The gut works as a team: stomach acid triggers enzyme release, the liver manages detox and fat digestion, the small intestine absorbs nutrients, and the microbiome keeps everything balanced. When one part falters, the others pick up the strain — leading to mixed symptoms like reflux and constipation, or bloating and fatigue.

The good news? You don’t need five separate treatments. When we target the root cause — restoring proper stomach acid, re-establishing bacterial balance, supporting the nervous system, or improving bile flow — the whole system recalibrates.

Clients often notice they’re not just digesting food better; they’re sleeping deeper, thinking clearer, and feeling more consistent energy throughout the day. Because when the gut is balanced, every other system benefits.

That’s why a holistic plan works where quick fixes don’t — it treats the body as the connected system it is.
