✨TEETHING ✨

I think we can all agree that teething isn’t fun. Its tough for baby, parents, carers, siblings - everyone!

This little combo has been a life saver for those poor inflamed and uncomfortable gums.

It's been nick-named across mothers as 'baby-crack', because it is white powder to help calm and sooth teething issues and get baby to sleep without screaming.

Use a silicone baby feeder and combine 1/4 tsp of Baby Teething Powder with breastmilk and/or puree if on solids and freeze.

Alternatively you can apply it directly onto the gums with clean washed hands and massage to provide even more relief.

It’s a beautiful natural combination of chamomile and oyster shell - no nasties in sight!

✨ A LITTLE UPDATE ✨

As many of you know, we are excitedly expecting a new addition to our family in January next year!

I will be going on maternity leave from the 18th of December to spend time soaking in this new stage of life. In my absence, incredible naturopath and nutritionist Erynne will be looking after my current clients as well as new clients. She has a heart for all things women’s health, children’s health, hormones, and digestion.

You can book in with Erynne by calling reception on 02 90162873. Erynne offers appointments in the clinic on Fridays and Saturdays and is also available for online video appointments.

I am looking forward to returning to clinic and my beautiful clients in the near future next year!

Warmly,

🌻 KIDS SNACK SWAPS 🌻

Sometimes we just don’t have time to make our own home baked organic superseded bars on a Sunday for a week of school lunches! This is when knowing how to read a food label is a vital skill to choose the best products from an oversaturated supermarket with sneaky marketing called ‘greenwashing’ to make us think something is healthy when its not. Here are some tips and examples to help!

1. The Ingredient list: When you are looking at the ingredients, they will be listed in descending order based on the percentage of inclusion. When looking through ingredient lists, if you don’t recognise it as a ‘food’ (or it sounds more like it should belong in a science laboratory), best leave that on the shelf. 
2. Comparing Products: When looking at nutritional tables and comparing foods, it’s always a good idea to make sure you use the ‘per 100g’ column. This makes sure you are comparing ‘apples with apples’ as the serving size will more than likely differ from product to product. 
3. Fat: We have some a long way from thinking fat is bad, and we now know its vital for brain function, healthy skin, nails, and nutrient absorption. The main thing you should check is the amount of saturated fats as they cause a rise in blood cholesterol levels. Try to make sure that the amount of saturated fat per 100g is no more than 2-3g. 
4. Sugar: When it comes to making healthy choices, try not to go over anything that has more than 15% sugar (that is, 15g of sugar per 100g).

✨ Have you ever wondered why stress impacts your cycle or your fertility? ✨

Here’s why: the body will always choose survival over reproduction!!

When the body is in a state of stress, the hypothalamus in the brain down regulates reproduction by reducing FSH and LH, which are critical for progesterone production and ovulation. Rather, the body ramps up cortisol production to help the body respond to stress. This mechanism is designed for our protection as reproduction during a famine doesn’t make sense to the body!

The issue is that our modern world stressors create that same stress response. Things like work stress, over exercising, under eating, lack of sleep and inflammation all get prioritised over reproduction!

✨POSTPARTUM TAHINI & CACAO LOGS✨

During the postpartum period, mum needs meals and snacks available she can grab and eat with one hand! These nutrient packed bites are an easy staple for the fridge/freezer, not requiring any equipment to make!

During this precious time, energy and nutrient requirements increase to support bub’s growth and mums healing and often depleted nutrient stores!

TAHINI
- Rich in healthy fats, calcium and iron for breastmilk production, and increased energy demands.

ALMONDS
- High in protein and healthy fats to keep your blood sugars stable, meaning you are fuller for longer, preventing those 3pm sugar cravings.

CACAO
- A wonderful source of magnesium to support the nervous system and prevent muscle spasm. It is also packed with theobromine which is a natural mood elevator.

CINNAMON
- A wonderful anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant. Increases circulation and blood flow for breastmilk production, whilst also regulating blood sugar levels.

INGREDIENTS //
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 2/3 cup almond meal
- 2 Tbsp raw cacao
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup

METHOD //
1. Combine all ingredients together in a bowl until well combined.

2. Roll into logs or balls, then roll in bowl of sesame seeds until covered.

3. Chill in the fridge for 1-2hrs until firm.

// CALCIUM IN PREGNANCY //

During pregnancy the demand for calcium increases to support bub’s developing bones, muscles and nervous system!

More than that, if you aren’t consuming enough calcium in your diet, it will be taken from your bones and used elsewhere (setting you up for the selflessness of motherhood!).

Calcium also helps to maintain a healthy blood pressure, preventing the occurrence of high blood pressure and pre-eclampsia.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, aim to get 1300mg of calcium daily!

These are just a few examples of some nourishing calcium rich foods ✨

⚡️The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is often referred to as the “fight or flight” nervous system because it prepares the body to fight or to flee from danger.

🌱The Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS), also called the ‘rest, digest and repair’ nervous system, is responsible for digestion, detoxification, immunity, and repairing the body.

These systems are involved in two phases of the stress response. Ideally, once a stressful situation is over the SNS switches off and the PSN system kicks in to calm you down. This helps create a healthy internal equilibrium.

The problem is that in our society, being busy is glorified and people are stressed out for long periods of time. This means the autonomic nervous system can’t keep up its balance of utilising both nervous systems, and favours the SNS in a means to ‘survive’.

✨PRODUCT SWAP✨

Marketing and fad diet trends can be so deceiving and confusing! It has led us to believe that margarine is superior due to it being ‘low fat’, ‘low calorie’, and ‘cholesterol lowering’.

Let’s pull this logic apart….

Margarine is made with a usually genetically modified rancid oil (soy, canola, corn, cottonseed or rapeseed).
- These oils are hydrogenated and combined with solvents/toxins such as hexane.
- Emulsifiers are then added to smooth out lumps
- This now solid oil is then artificially deodorised, flavoured and bleached to look, taste and smell like butter.

As you can see, this is far from a healthy option to top our toast or cook our food with!

Alternatively, butter is made from 100% cream and a dash of salt, with churning being the only step in processing.

Your hormones can be influenced by everything from your diet, environment and stress levels, to your genetics. It can be confusing to try and figure out what kind of imbalance you are experiencing on your own!

I work closely with my clients to identify the root cause of their symptoms through thorough case taking, investigating what they are eating, how they are working and exercising, current and past stress levels, family history, and pathology/testing if required.

If you resonate with any of these imbalances, reach out and get your hormones back on track! ✨🌻
