Our very own Jade and Rowena soaking up the latest research, clinical pearls, and inspiration to bring back to the NatMed community.

At NatMed, we believe the best care comes from staying curious, connected, and always learning. Events like these fuel our passion to keep blending science with naturopathic wisdom—so we can serve you better.

Perimenopause can feel like you’ve lost the steering wheel. One day you’re fine, the next you’re anxious, sleepless, and wondering why your body feels so unfamiliar.

Your hormones aren’t just dropping — they’re swinging wildly. That hormonal rollercoaster affects your:
Brain → memory, mood, focus
Heart → palpitations, cholesterol, stress response
Sleep → night sweats, restless nights
Weight → changes in metabolism and fat storage

This process is a hormonal recalibration in preparation for the next chapter of life. And with the right support for your nervous system, stress, and foundations like gut and liver health, you can move through perimenopause with clarity and confidence.

You don’t have to do this alone.

Stress, hormones, and cholesterol: The silent connection you need to understand.

Did you know that cholesterol is the precursor to not just cortisol, but also your female s*x hormones—estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone?

Here’s the catch: When your body is under chronic stress, your adrenal glands pump out cortisol. But guess what? Your body uses the same raw material (cholesterol) to make cortisol as it does for your s*x hormones. So, when cortisol levels soar from ongoing stress, your body chooses to prioritise cortisol production—leaving less cholesterol for estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.

This means stress doesn’t just mess with your mood—it can directly impact your fertility, libido, and even the balance of your menstrual cycle. Long-term stress may lower progesterone, disrupt ovulation, and contribute to hormonal imbalances like estrogen dominance.

The solution isn't always just to "fix your hormones" — for a really stressed out woman, the solution might be managing stress and preventing burnout.

And then all the things that are downstream of happy hormones — better libido, less PMS, easier menopause, and robust fertility.

Want to learn more about the root cause of your hormonal imbalance? Book a free discovery call and chat with one of our professional naturopaths! Link-in-bio to book.

Could gut health unlock a cure for bipolar?

Breaking ground with “extreme hope,” an Australian woman living with bipolar 1 for 18 years says years of homemade faecal microbiota transplants (FMT), using her husband’s donated stool, led to no manic episodes since 2017, restored motivation, joy, and self‑esteem—and complete medication cessation. Her psychiatrist called the changes “bordering on miraculous,” and even longtime bipolar expert Gordon Parker described the case as one of the most exciting developments in half a century of psychiatry.

While this area of research is still new, it confirms what naturopaths have been saying for a very long time — the gut is the epicentre of mood, cognition, and psychiatry. And this case highlights an exciting new area of psychiatry in general.

If rigorously studied, FMT might prove transformative for people with severe, treatment‑resistant mood disorders like bipolar.

Let’s support more research on the microbiome–mental health frontier. This story challenges what was once deemed incurable, pointing toward future breakthroughs.

A team of researchers at Melbourne's Walter and Eliza Hall Institute (WEHI) recently reported that only 2 days of exposure to a high saturated fat diet can dramatically weaken gut health and immunity.

They found in mouse models that it only takes a couple of days of exposure to saturated fats for immune cells in the gut to be reduced, suppressing mucosal immunity. They observed these biochemical markers before any signs of inflammation or weight alteration — showing that these foods silently impact gut health.

The researchers argue that diets high in saturated fat create a form of "silent inflammation" and immune suppression and dysregulation. Ultimately, these are the kinds of mechanisms that lead to the onset of IBD, IBS, and even autoimmune conditions.

There is no "safe limit" to ultra processed foods, especially those high in saturated fats. As we see, after only 2 days of exposure, there may already be dramatic impacts to the gastrointestinal lining.

Your gut is constantly talking to your brain — but are you listening?
⠀
The gut-brain axis is more than a buzzword.
It’s a literal communication highway, with the vagus nerve as the main messenger.
⠀
When the gut is inflamed, imbalanced, or under stress, it sends warning signals to your brain — affecting mood, focus, sleep, and even anxiety.
⠀
That’s why at NatMed, we don’t just treat gut symptoms.
We look at the whole person — gut, brain, nervous system, and beyond.
⠀
For many, healing the gut is the secret key to healing mood related issues and sleep disturbances.

The little butterfly gland in your throat — the thyroid — depends heavily on healthy nutrition for optimal function.

For example, iron is one of the building blocks of the TPO enzyme. Without optimal TPO function, your body can't efficiently make thyroid hormones. Iron is also required to convert inactive thyroid hormone (T4) to its active form, T3.

Healthy nutrition is savagely important for optimal thyroid function. Check out the slides to see the 4 most important dietary nutrients for optimal thyroid function.

It's easy to get caught up in not being "perfect".

But this winter, we invite you to re-imagine the health issues that you experience. Instead of feeling down about it, ask yourself, what has this experience allowed you to gain? Did you learn something new about your body, yourself, and your health? And is that something you can use to help others feel better too?

We're meditating on this wonderful Rumi quote in the clinic this week, and how often health issues become a major turning point and transformation in people's lives.

What most people don't realise is that the gut is home to over 70% of the immune system. And this is why gut health is at the cornerstone of naturopathic treatment and management of autoimmune disease.

If you have an autoimmune condition (or suspect you might), addressing gut health is paramount. The gut is the single biggest site of initiation of immune responses. Which makes it savagely important to look to the gut as the likely place where the immune system is being triggered.

In this post, we break down:
• Why autoimmune disease isn’t just genetic
• How your gut regulates immune tolerance
• Why dysbiosis leads to inflammation and flares
• What naturopathic care does differently

At NatMed, we support autoimmune recovery from the inside out — starting where it matters most: your gut.
