🍫 Festive Chocolate That Loves You Back 🎄

Good news for chocolate lovers… good quality dark chocolate can actually support your health over the holidays 💚

Cocoa is rich in polyphenols – powerful plant compounds that:
🦠 Feed your good gut bacteria (hello, happier microbiome)
❤️ Support heart health & blood vessels
🧠 May benefit brain function, focus and mood
✨ Provide strong antioxidant support to help your cells handle festive-season stress

For the biggest benefits, choose 70%+ dark chocolate with minimal ingredients (cocoa, cocoa butter, a little sugar). More cocoa = more goodness and usually less “extra stuff” your gut doesn’t love.

This Christmas, think mindful enjoyment: savour a few squares of proper dark chocolate, let it melt, and enjoy every bite – your gut (and brain) will thank you 💚

🎄 Holiday Season Health Tips (Without the Guilt!) 🎄

The festive season is all about connection, fun and great food – not perfection. A few simple habits can help you enjoy it all and feel good in your body and brain 💚

✨ 1. Eat before you go
Heading to an event with mostly finger food or nibbles? Have a balanced meal with protein + healthy fats + complex carbs a few hours before (think eggs & avo on wholegrain toast, fish with quinoa & salad ). This helps steady energy, mood and blood sugar – and reduces the “I’ve only eaten canapés” crash later on.

💧 2. Hydrate before, during & after
Start the day with a big glass of water or electrolytes, sip regularly, and alternate alcoholic drinks with water or soda. Rehydrating with electrolytes after a big night can make a big difference to how you feel the next morning.

🍷 3. Mindful drinking (or great alcohol-free options)
Drink after eating, hydrate between drinks and choose lower-sugar options (like a wine spritzer or vodka, soda & lime). Build in alcohol-free days between events. Not drinking? Zero-alcohol wines, spirits and mocktails, or soda water with bitters & lemon in a fancy glass help you feel part of the party – without the next-day fog.

🧘 4. Rebalance between celebrations
Short walk, ocean swim, stretch or gentle yoga. Prioritise sleep, fresh air and getting back to regular meals and hydration as soon as you can.

The goal isn’t restriction – it’s balance. Small, mindful choices can help you move through the holidays with more energy, clarity and ease ✨

FemmenessencePRO PERI has officially landed at Bounce Matters 💫

Perimenopause is not “all in your head” – it’s a real hormonal transition that can affect:
🔥 Hot flushes & night sweats
😴 Sleep
🎢 Mood & anxiety
🧠 Brain fog & focus
❤️ Heart & metabolic health

That’s why we’re so excited to now offer FemmenessencePRO PERI in clinic – a clinically researched maca-based formula that works by nourishing your endocrine system (HPTAO axis), supporting your body’s own hormone production, rather than just adding hormones in.

Clinical trials on this exact product have shown:
✅ 74–82% of women experienced relief from perimenopausal symptoms
✅ Improvements often seen between 2 days and 8 weeks (average ~21 days)
✅ Additional benefits for heart and mental health markers

✨ Also in the Femmenessence & RevolutionPRO range (available via the clinic):
• FemmenessencePRO Harmony – for teens through reproductive years
• FemmenessencePRO Post – for women postmenopause (no period for 12+ months)
• RevolutionPRO – for men’s hormone strength, vitality & reproductive health

👉 Curious if this might be a fit for you?

Send us a DM, chat to us at your next appointment, or book a FREE 15-minute discovery call via our website to learn more.

“Fibermaxxing” (or fibremaxxing 😉) is having a moment online… and we are absolutely here for it 🙌🌾

Because when it’s done well, a higher-fibre way of eating can support:
• steadier energy and fewer crashes ⚡
• happier bowels & more regular poos 🚽
• a healthier gut microbiome – which talks directly to your brain 🧠💬
At Bounce Matters we’re all about fibre done smart:

🥦 Food first:
Think beans, lentils, oats, chia, flax, veggies, fruit, nuts & wholegrains.
Build your plate with:
• ½ colourful plants
• ¼ quality protein
• ¼ smart, high-fibre carbs

➕ Then top up, simply:
Our Bounce Base powder is an easy way to:
• sneak extra fibre into smoothies, yoghurt, or porridge
• support gut–brain health on busy days
• boost fibre without ultra-processed “health” snacks

Start low, go slow (too much, too fast = bloating and discomfort), and sip water through the day 💧

Curious how fibremaxxing could support your gut and brain – and whether Bounce Base is right for you?
Send us a DM or chat to our team in clinic 💬🌿

What if just 3,000–7,500 steps a day could delay Alzheimer’s symptoms by years? 🧠🚶‍♀️

New research on preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (when the brain changes are starting but memory still seems “normal”) found that:

🚶‍♀️ 3,000–5,000 steps/day was linked with about 3 years’ delay in cognitive decline
🚶‍♂️ 5,000–7,500 steps/day was linked with about 7 years’ delay
🪑 More sedentary people had faster build-up of tau proteins in the brain and quicker decline in thinking and daily function

The big takeaway?
👉 Lifestyle still made a difference.
👉 Every extra bit of daily movement helped slow the brain changes linked to Alzheimer’s.

We love this message at Bounce Matters:
✨ Start early
✨ Start small
✨ Be consistent – your future brain will thank you

If you’re worried about your memory, family history or long-term brain health, we can help you build a realistic, brain-supportive plan that fits your life. 💙

20/11/2025

Sugar Awareness Week 🍭🧠 (17–23 Nov)

Our kids’ brains are busy wiring up for life – and what’s on their plate really matters.
Children’s preference for sweet flavours starts forming as early as ages 2–6.
At this stage, little ones naturally lean towards sweeter tastes. When cakes, buns and sugary snacks are everyday foods (rather than occasional treats), we can unintentionally train a sweet tooth for the long term.

🧁 Did you know?
9 in 10 kids and 4 in 5 adults eat too much sugar – raising the risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and tooth decay

It’s not just about teeth or tummies… it’s about brain health too:
• High sugar intakes are linked with blood sugar highs and crashes – hello, meltdowns and mood swings 😵‍💫
• Diets high in ultra-processed, sugary foods can crowd out brain-loving nutrients (like omega-3s, zinc, B vitamins)
• Over time, this pattern can contribute to inflammation, lower energy and poorer concentration

The good news?
Small swaps = big impact. 🌟

• Swap soft drinks ➡️ water or sparkling with a splash of fruit
• Swap biscuits ➡️ nuts, cheese, veggie sticks + hummus
• Swap sugary breakfast cereals ➡️ oats, yoghurt, fruit + seeds

At Bounce Matters, we’re all about protecting little brains for the long term.

World Diabetes Day might be over… but this conversation definitely shouldn’t be. 💙

In Australia, more than 1.5 million people are living with Type 2 diabetes — and another 2 million are likely sitting in the “pre-diabetes” zone without knowing it. Awareness isn’t the problem anymore. The real question is:

Why are we still getting it so wrong?

It’s Not Just About Sugar 🍬 Type 2 diabetes doesn’t start the day your blood sugar crosses a diagnostic line. It often starts years earlier with insulin resistance – a kind of metabolic “fog” that also drives:
• Fatty liver
• Heart disease
• Dementia risk
• Weight gain & stubborn belly fat
• Low energy, brain fog & mood changes

Waiting until blood sugar is “bad enough” is like waiting for emphysema before talking about smoking.

Food as Medicine (The Forgotten Tool) 🥦
We’ve poured billions into drugs (many of which do save and extend lives) – but far less into what actually programs our metabolism every single day: food.

That’s where gut health comes in. High-fibre, plant-rich, polyphenol-packed foods feed beneficial gut bacteria, which then produce powerful signalling molecules (like SCFAs) that help support:
✅ Insulin sensitivity
✅ Appetite regulation
✅ Inflammation balance
✅ Metabolic resilience

At Bounce Matters, this science sits behind our Bounce Base formula – a whole-food, gut-loving blend created to:
• Support healthy blood-sugar balance
• Nourish the microbiome
• Gently nudge metabolism in the right direction
• Complement (not replace) the work you’re doing with your doctor

💬 Let’s keep the conversation going
If you’re worried about insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, or just feel like your metabolism is “stuck”, we’re here to help.

👉 Ask us about Bounce Base and how a gut-centred, food-as-medicine approach can fit into your broader diabetes prevention or management plan.
