Gut Health is a core pillar of Naturopathic Medicine.

The gut is the place we start, it can change your health.

As Naturopaths , we look at what needs to be rebalanced , whether we need to remove parasites, Candida, heal a leaky gut , change up the food to reduce inflammation … etc…

Good gut health is the foundation and is often the start of the way back to good health…

If you’re keen to learn more about your gut health & what you can do to improve it naturally, keep your eye out for my 2026 Gut Workshop dates.

Do you have low B12 levels?

This is one of the most common deficiencies I pick up in clinic either using blood testing that I order or by reading previous blood pathology of a patient where low B12 was missed !

It can be caused by pernicious anaemia , low B12 intake and low stomach acid amongst a few things.

Once you correct this deficiency , many of my clients think I’m magic or something but it’s not me , it’s the wonder of basic nutrition and looking at correcting what is low.

This page is from my all time favourite clinical text

Visual Textbook of Nutrition
By Dr Igor Tabrizian

I was blessed to help Dr Igor out with his seminars many years ago and was able to listen to his clinical nutrition lectures . I learnt so much and have been able to use this in my clinical practice today.

I love pathology
And I love vitamins and mineral therapy.
It keeps the science part of my brain alive !

I love this book so much I have 3 x copies!
One is almost falling apart.

Many of my regular clients know that I pull this book out quite often and show them a biochemistry chart or a mineral deficiency !

Have you had your B12 levels checked recently?

As Naturopaths we have access to loads of testing , so don’t forget to ask us if you see us in your appointment.

We test:

✅saliva hormones and stress profile
✅DNA gene testing
✅food testing
✅gut microbiome testing
✅general blood pathology Eg iron, zinc, vit d

Naturopathy has changed so much in the past 30 years since I graduated and to be honest , I love having the testing available, especially if what we are doing in clinic is not working and we need answers.

It’s also great for patients as it gives you black and white information, accountability and something to measure . It also gives you specific health goals , which I love.

Grabbing another quick cuppa before I start my clinic day today.

Because 5 mins to myself to grab some me time is essential in this new chapter of my world.

I normally see clients Tuesdays but the dreaded flu got me good and was my little ‘gift’ I brought back from my quick trip to Emerald last week.

So , yesterday I was resting .

From these challenges ( I HATE getting sick) always comes lots of gold….

I often learn by having to treat myself what works best.

Now may of my co-workers have had this lovely lurgy as well but my system has jumped back in at least 1/2 the healing time.

So here are my gold nuggets for flu season for you:

1.N Acetyl Cysteine

This is gold , it helps to remove mucous congestion and really gives the immune system a helping hand to fight off infections. Only use it acutely though as long term use without practitioner supervision is not good for your gut!

2.Vitamin C

Always a staple. When you come and see us in store ask us for our dose while you are sick.
This supports the immune system and is a good all rounder for your immune system.

3. Vitamin A

Now this one needs to be used with caution. If you are pregnant or could be pregnant do not use this nutrient .
Vitamin A is fabulous support for the mucous membranes and helps to clear the lungs and congestion. I really turned around when I took this.

4.Homeopathics

I used Aconite ,Hepar Sulph and Spongia !

If you are wanting our advice re dosing , please come in store and we will guide you.
