” I have always been interested in complementary therapies to promote my own health and that of my daughters. It is an invaluable tool to be used as a preventive tool to reduce risk of chronic disease. A natural course in life made me realise that I had to take control of my health and made sustainable dietary and lifestyle changes, to ensure I was able to be there for my children and enjoy life. I practice a client-centered holistic approach by listening to you and collaborating with you to make sure your treatment plan fits YOU. I enjoy helping and educating people to be able to take control of their own health and start to feel better, using food and nutrients to support the body’s own natural ability to repair and heal. Good, wholesome nutrition is the key to health and well-being to provide your body with the nutrients it requires to function optimally, repair, grow and develop, through all life stages. Nutritional Medicine is so versatile and can be applied to many health conditions, all life stages, a preventative strategy and work alongside other modalities. Every person is an individual and a holistic and comprehensive consultation, treatment and support is offered.” – Tegan Carrall

Does any of this sound familiar? ⬇ 🤔
✔ Snoozing your alarm, then immediately scrolling on your phone in bed 🤳
✔ You slept in again, so no time for breakfast.
✔ Instead, you'll just grab a coffee on your way to work.
You then feel:
✔ Exhausted, yet anxious and unable to focus.
✔ Feeling like you're in a fog all day.
✔ Can't seem to wake your brain up even after another cup of coffee.
✔ Too tired from the day to do much after work, so you watch a show or scroll on your phone until you go to bed.
✔ When you do go to bed, you can't seem to fall asleep 😫
Then you do it all again the next day. 😐
This has become so normalized....but it is not normal, nor is it healthy for us!
Try implementing some of these into your morning routine (try one at a time if you're 0/6 right now!)
But let me know, is your morning routine supporting your hormones?!

Seven reasons WHY your cholesterol may be high, besides eating too much dietary cholesterol.
-
First, it is important to note that dietary cholesterol has very little affect on your total cholesterol numbers. A healthy body regulates cholesterol production, the more cholesterol you consume, the less your body will make.
-
For most people, around 20% of your total cholesterol is due to dietary cholesterol. The rest of your cholesterol is produced by your liver.
-
Yet, what is the first thing your doctor tells you when your cholesterol numbers are elevated?
-
-Reduce ALL foods that contain cholesterol and/OR you need to go on a cholesterol lowering medication --statins or red yeast rice.
-
Hmmmm. Does this make sense since we know, dietary cholesterol contributes very little to your cholesterol numbers?
What else could be affecting your elevated cholesterol numbers?
-
Here is what you should know about cholesterol.
-
-Cholesterol elevates when thyroid production or conversion is low. Thyroid is needed for cholesterol to convert into all your steroidal hormones.
-Cholesterol elevates with low vitamin A. Vitamin A is also needed for cholesterol conversion.
-Cholesterol elevates if the liver is over burdened (liver converts inactive thyroid (T4) into active T3).
-Cholesterol elevates with unopposed estrogens.
-Cholesterol elevates with low copper and/or low iron (in blood).
-Cholesterol elevates with increased endotoxins and a high bacterial load in the gut.
-Cholesterol elevates under stress. Which means a stressful job, relationship, confinement, isolation, lack of sleep, fear, etc. etc.
-
Which means, it would make far more sense to address your stress level, your gut, liver and thyroid health, and your nutrients in your diet before jumping on the statin/red yeast rice band wagon AND removing all things cholesterol from your diet.

-Not Medical Advice. Always consult with your doctor before getting off of any medication.

Along with nutritional advice, Nutrition Nourishment is based on the principle of teaching the importance of creating healthy lifestyle habits to achieve physical and psychological balance. In other words, examining your lifestyle, not just your diet, and treat you as a whole person, including mind, body and soul as integral parts of our whole individual being. This is how optimal health is achieved through a holistic-lifestyle approach. I’m a firm believer in seeing clients as individuals, and customising plans to suit them. No two plans will ever be the same, after all, each individuals body operates differently.
As your nutritionist, working closely with the Nutrition Nourishment principles, I can tailor a diet and adjust your lifestyle choices that is suited for your everyday needs. There is a lot of information out there, which can create confusion and can make you feel overwhelmed on making the right decisions for your body. There are a million different diets and labels out there: paleo, vegetarian, Atkins, lemon detox and the list goes on. This is where I step in; our bodies are different, and it’s my job to work out what your body needs to perform at its best – and then come up with an eating plan that is not only beneficial and nutritious, but enjoyable and sustainable.
But in order to feel better, we must first be better. And I can help you feel great. For the rest of your life. In my clinic, I aim to gently push people to live their best, most healthiest life. This goes beyond diets. While teaching you how to fuel your body properly is a huge part of what I do, good health is far more complex than the a low-fat diet. In order to reach optimum health, and find a sense of balance and confidence, we need to address sleep, stress, exercise, relationships, and work environments.
I’m here to empower you to make good choices, every day. I’m here to support you on your journey to great health. I’m here to enhance your understanding of health and nutrition. I’m committed to making sure you live the best life. Because you deserve it. Are you ready to start feeling great?
