Client Love 💜

This client had many things going on in her gut, we were able to successfully eradicate and rebuild her gut microbiome.

We did the GI MAP stool test that I do with all of my clients to see exactly what was going on.

Doing this test gets faster results getting us to the root cause and save you money in the long run.

This client did my 5-month "Fix Your Gut Solution Program"

Testimonial:

Gidget is extremely knowledgeable and really helped me feel much better.

Tests revealed I had significant digestion issues and her prescribed protocol for supplements, food and moderate lifestyle changes improved my vitality mental clarity and overall wellness.

Highly recommend her services.

If you want help and to feel better like this client, book a Health Direction Appointment to discuss your health concerns and learn how I can help you!

Hi ladies 👋

This post is for women 40+ who feel like their body suddenly changed — and no one warned them.

If you’re dealing with things like:

• stubborn belly weight or inflammation
• bloating, constipation, or unpredictable digestion
• acid reflux or heartburn that came out of nowhere
• poor sleep, anxiety, or feeling wired but exhausted
• mood changes, low motivation, or brain fog
• feeling stuck despite eating well and trying “all the things”

You’re not broken — and it’s not just aging.

I’m a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and Personal Trainer serving Quinte West and Northumberland County, with virtual and in-person appointments.

I have 20+ years in the Health & Wellness Space and specialize in Gut Health and helping women navigate perimenopause by supporting digestion, hormones, and the nervous system together.

Many of my clients are told their labs are “normal,” yet they still don’t feel like themselves. I take a food-first approach and use functional testing like the GI-MAP gut test, blood work, and HTMA to help uncover what’s really going on.

If you’re curious, I offer a 30-minute Health Direction Appointment — a calm, no-pressure conversation to talk through symptoms and possible next steps.

Meatballs with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy

Ingredients: Serves 4

4 Russet Potato (small, peeled, chopped)
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
1 lb Extra Lean Ground Beef
1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divided)
3 tbsps Gluten-Free Bread Crumbs
1 tspGarlic Powder (divided)
1 Yellow Onion (medium, sliced)
1 tsp Arrowroot Powder
2 tsps Water
1 1/2 cups Beef Broth
2 tbsps Parsley (chopped)

Directions:

Add the potatoes to a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the water and add the potatoes back to the pot. Add the milk, salt, and pepper. Mash with a potato masher until smooth and creamy.

Meanwhile, combine the beef, half of the oil, bread crumbs, and half of the garlic powder in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Roll the mixture into two-inch (5 cm) balls and place them on a plate.

Heat the remaining oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook them on all sides for 10 to 12 minutes, until they are browned and cooked through. Work in batches if needed. Remove from the pan and set aside.

To the same pan, add the onion. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes or until browned.

Mix the arrowroot powder and water to make a slurry. Add the broth, remaining garlic powder to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a low boil. Once boiling, slowly add the slurry and stir until the sauce thickens.

Add the meatballs back into the pan and coat them in the sauce. Lower the heat and cook for five to six minutes to warm the meatballs. Garnish with parsley. Divide the mashed potatoes, meatballs, and gravy evenly between plates. Enjoy!

NOTES:

Leftovers: Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Serving Size: One serving is approximately three meatballs with gravy and 3/4 cup of mashed potatoes.

No Almond milk: Use unsweetened cashew milk instead or organic cream

If your body isn’t responding anymore… this is for you.

You’re eating well.
You’re moving your body.
You’re doing all the “right things.”

Yet:
• the scale won’t budge (or keeps creeping up)
• bloating or digestive discomfort is constant
• energy is low, sleep is off
• moods feel unpredictable
• peri-menopause symptoms feel harder to manage

I hear this all the time — especially from women in peri-menopause.

And I want you to hear this clearly:

You are not doing anything wrong.

Stubborn weight, digestion issues, and hormone symptoms are not about willpower. They’re signals — from your gut, hormones, nervous system, and stress load — that something deeper needs support.

That’s why restriction, punishment, and “eat less, move more” often stop working.

For some women, that looks like personalized 1:1 support.

A great place to start is my Healing Fat Loss Solution Program, where you can learn more and see real client before-and-after photos.

✨ I offer a 20-minute complimentary consultation — a relaxed, no-pressure call to talk through your symptoms and next steps.

PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE 🎃☕️

A HEALTHY VERSION OF YOUR STARBUCKS LATTE

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup Coffee
2 tbsps Pureed Pumpkin
1 1/2 tbsps Maple Syrup
1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
3/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

DIRECTIONS:

1. Brew your coffee and set it aside.

2. In a saucepan over medium heat, stir the pumpkin, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice until combined. Slowly whisk in almond milk. Bring the mixture to a low simmer, stirring occasionally, and remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract.

3. Transfer milk mixture to a blender and pulse several times until foamy and frothy. (You can also use a hand-held immersion blender instead.)

4. Add milk mixture to your hot coffee. You may want to use a spoon to gently hold back the frothy top layer while pouring. Top your latte with this remaining froth.

5. Top with a dollop of homemade whipped cream or coconut whipped cream (optional) and sprinkle with additional pumpkin pie spice.

NOTES:
No Almond Milk: Use coconut milk instead.

No Blender: Whisk vigorously by hand when the milk mixture starts to simmer on the stove. FYI, this will not create the same froth as a blender or immersion blender, but still tasty!

Pumpkin Lover: Add an extra 1 tbsp of pureed pumpkin per serving.

Homemade Pumpkin Spice: Mix 1/4 cup ground cinnamon, 4 tsp ground nutmeg, 4 tsp ground ginger and 1 tbsp ground allspice.

Store in an air-tight container.
Caffeine Free: Use decaf or replace coffee with additional almond milk.

The health of your gut affects every system in your body...

⭐️ 70-80% of your immune system is in the gut and helps protect us from colds, flu, and viruses

⭐️ 90% of serotonin and up to 50% of dopamine are made in the gut and can affect conditions like depression and anxiety. The gut produces more neurotransmitters than the brain does. This is why it is called the second brain

⭐️ Our gut serves as a protective barrier to keep unwanted food particles out of circulation, which can help prevent joint pain, skin issues, chronic inflammation, and autoimmune diseases

⭐️ 20-30% of our thyroid hormones are processed in the gut, and when our bacterial balance is off, it can contribute to thyroid disease

⭐️ The gut is a 9-meter-long organ that starts from and includes the mouth, all the way to the re**um. It includes the esophagus, stomach, small & large intestines, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas

⭐️ There are as many as 10 times as many microbes in your gut as there are cells in your body

⭐️ The gut sends signals to the brain via the vagus nerve. The brain perceives these signals from the gut as emotions. So “trust your gut”

⭐️ The gut contains 5.5lbs of bacteria in it

⭐️ Gut bacteria are passed from mother to baby. Babies literally swallow bacteria as they pass through the birth canal. They tend to have a stronger immune system than those delivered through c-sections. Babies born through a C-section don’t get this dose of bacteria. It is also passed from mother to baby through breastfeeding

⭐️ You can see how gut health is not just about how well a person digests food. It is a combination of digestion, absorption, the impact of blood sugar, elimination of food, as well as an effective detoxification

❣️ BOTTOM LINE… if your gut is not healthy, you are not healthy.
