Jumping on this trend because some things just need to be said. ❤️

Are you struggling with breakouts, dry skin, or skin that just won’t settle? 💔

Your gut and skin are more connected than most people realise. When your gut health is out of balance; whether it’s due to microbial imbalances, parasites, constipation, or low stomach acid (just to name some), it can drive inflammation, impact nutrient absorption, and then will often show up in the skin.

If you’ve tried all the topical solutions and nothing seems to help, it might be time to look a little deeper.

My DMs are always open, reach out if you need support or have any questions about microbiome testing. ❤️

A “normal” TSH does not rule out thyroid dysfunction.

If your thyroid has been tested and you’ve been told “everything looks fine,” but you still feel fatigued, flat, and not like yourself, it’s worth investigating further.
⠀
TSH is a useful marker, but it does not give us the full picture of how your thyroid is functioning.

You can have a TSH that’s within range and still have underlying issues affecting:

– Energy
– Mood
– Metabolism
– Hair and skin health
– Menstrual cycles
⠀
To fully understand and assess your thyroid health, we need to look beyond just TSH.
⠀
This will help us understand whether your body is producing, converting, and properly using thyroid hormones, and whether autoimmunity is playing a role.
⠀
If symptoms are present, but your standard blood tests don’t reflect what you’re feeling, it’s not something to ignore. ♥️

“Your blood results are fine”, but you don’t feel fine. 💔

I’ve honestly lost count of how many times I’ve heard this in clinic.

A woman will sit down and describe symptoms such as exhaustion, hair loss, weight gain, brain fog, feeling off, and when I ask to see her recent bloods, she’ll say, “I don’t have them, but my GP said they were all fine.”

Please, please ask for a copy. You have every right to see your results, and I want to see them too.

Just because something falls within the reference range doesn’t mean it’s optimal for you.

So often when I do finally see the results, there’s something that needs a closer look, whether that is B12, iron, thyroid function, hormones. They may all be technically “normal,” but not ideal. And if you’re feeling off, that matters.

This is not about second-guessing your GP. It’s about digging deeper, getting curious, and making sure your symptoms aren’t brushed off just because a number falls in a wide range.

I’m not here to wait until things fall apart, or until you meet the criteria for a diagnosis. Whether it’s pre diabetes, or sub clinical thyroid dysfunction, let’s address it before it progresses.  
I’m here to help you optimise your health, to feel better now, and stay that way. ❤️

Perimenopause can feel like a turning point, where your usual approach to nutrition, movement, and weight management just stops working.

What’s often missing from the conversation is that your body is changing. Hormones are shifting, metabolism is slowing, and your ability to process certain foods, especially carbohydrates, isn’t what it used to be.

Please know that weight gain is not inevitable. When you understand what’s going on under the surface, you can work with your body instead of against it.

This is what I support my beautiful clients with every week, tailored strategies that actually work for women in this stage of life.

If you’re navigating perimenopause and feeling stuck, know that you’re not alone, and you don’t need to figure it out on your own, either. ❤️

Some special places, people and moments of late ❤️

Endometriosis is a complex condition, and navigating care can feel overwhelming. 💔

There’s growing evidence supporting the use of specific supplements to help reduce inflammation, slow the growth of endometrial lesions, and ease symptoms like pelvic pain.

These aren’t generic wellness add-ons. When used correctly, at therapeutic doses and in practitioner-quality forms, targeted supplements can be a powerful part of an integrative care plan.

If you’re living with endometriosis and want support that goes beyond just symptom control, I’d love to help. ❤️

Collagen isn’t just a fancy protein powder, and it’s not the same as one.

While maintaining muscle is important for long-term health, not every supplement needs to drive muscle growth.

Many people are looking for support, and have health goals that go beyond, or co-exist with, muscle growth. Things like skin health, joint and tissue support, injury recovery, perimenopausal changes, or gut repair.

That’s where collagen comes in.

It’s not a replacement for complete protein, but it can be a great addition, especially when used alongside a balanced, nutrient-dense diet, and a healthy lifestyle.

It’s not a magic bullet. Just smart, targeted support layered on strong foundations. ♥️

Have you heard of resistant starch? The hidden gem for your gut microbiome, blood glucose and insulin.

Resistant starch is a type of starch (carbohydrate), found in foods like green bananas, cooked-and-cooled rice, pasta and potatoes. Unlike regular starch, resistant starch isn’t fully broken down in the small intestine (as the name suggests—it resists digestion). Once it reaches the large intestine, it feeds your gut bacteria, helping to:

❤️‍🔥 Support a healthy microbiome
❤️‍🔥 Improve digestion & reduce bloating
❤️‍🔥 Keep blood sugar more stable

Resistant starch has also been found to improve insulin sensitivity, and help to reduce blood glucose levels after a meal.

The trick? Cooling after cooking increases resistant starch in foods, so that leftover rice, pasta or potato salad will be fuel for your gut microbes. 🦠❤️
