Are you feeling bloated, struggling to lose weight and feeling really unfit? Especially after the Christmas/ New year period. You are not alone!
Over indulging over the Christmas period can upset our balance of ‘good’ bacteria that resides in our GUT, drinking too much alcohol and sweet foods also burdens our liver which can contribute to bloating.

Time to start prioritising your Gut and Liver health
So you can get rid of your bloating for good.

Contact me directly and I’ll send you a detox questionnaire to help figure out if your liver or gut needs a little more love 💕

March was the month
I turned 40
We got some exciting news
Spent a lot of time with family
Ate lots of delicious food And drank too much wine

Wow 2022, you were a challenging one! Navigating covid restrictions, whilst running a business and the juggling act that occurs when you have a young family, can be a real struggle.

But we got through it 💪🏽

I just want to thank all my clients for their continuous support and allowing me to be part of their health journey. Well done on a great year! There has been so many amazing success stories; hormonal issues resolved, healthy pregnancies, heathy babies, weight loss, improved energy, moods, thyroid issues & gut issues addressed, just to name a few.

Wishing you all the very best for the year ahead & let’s continue to kick more health goals in 2023.

I’ll be back in clinic from the 7th January

Did you know over 80% of our immune system resides in the Gut? This means if our gut isn’t in it’s healthiest state, we may develop immune conditions such as hay-fever, eczema, acne, sinusitis, autoimmune diseases, reoccurring infections to name a few.
We also have a gut - brain- axis which means that the gut can influence our moods, behaviours and vice versa.
It even has the ability to influence metabolic genes, causing weight gain in certain individuals, the list goes on!
I’m starting to question, “Is there anything our gut doesn’t influence”?

To supplement Or not to supplement ?
In a perfect world, we would get all our nutrients through a healthy diet, however due to many factors such as our soil quality in Australia, which is depleted in minerals, tap water containing fluoride which effects our iodine levels, farming, cooking, factors effecting our absorption of food, medications, stress levels, air pollution and chemicals. (Really just the ramifications of living in the western world). This is also dependant on your current health status too.

As a naturopath I see nutrients deficiencies on a daily basis and unfortunately they’re very common in our children as well.

Factors that increase your demand for certain nutrients are:
Ongoing stress
Gut problems
Pregnancy & lactation
Certain medications
Being sick all the time or not recovering quickly (lower immune system)
Vegan or vegetarian diet

Always speak to qualified practitioner regarding what your individual needs are and they can tailor a protocol based on your requirements.

Happy National Breastfeeding week to all the mummas out there nourishing their bubs.
Breastfeeding can be an emotional roller coaster of bonding with your child, wanting the best for them health wise but also wanting your body back and not feeling guilty for that extra glass of wine! I know I have felt this.
Last week I stopped feeding my 22 month old, it was about 6 months coming and I was definitely ready. She wasn’t totally on board with it being a strong baby lady.
I feel blessed I managed to do it for so long and know I have helped her microbiome flourish.
Here’s to all the mummas out there whether you breastfed for a while, tried it and couldn’t, you’re all doing an amazing job 👏🏻

Have you ever been to see your GP feeling a little off knowing deep down something not quite right? They decide to run some tests and your results come back and everything within the normal range ?

But you still don’t feel right?

Did you know the reference ranges for general pathology are based on the ‘average’ or mean of the general population .. which is a pretty sick population if you ask me.
A lot of these references ranges are not based on current up to date research or optimising your health. Which is pretty much what naturopaths are all about preventing and addressing health issues, while correcting nutrients deficiencies before your symptoms get worse and disease starts to manifest.

If your not feeling 100%, I’d suggest getting your results and having a naturopath look over them or better still we can send you for these tests.

If your interested in chatting more about pathology testing book a free discovery call through my website (link in bio)
