Did you know your cosy candles, diffusers, or air fresheners might be silently polluting your home?
 
Many mainstream products contain phthalates, parabens, aldehydes, and synthetic fragrances that disrupt hormones, irritate airways, and add to your toxic load over time. Even when a label says “fragrance” or “parfum”, it’s usually a cocktail of lab-made chemicals designed to imitate natural scents.
 
What’s the result?
Small daily exposures that stack up and can damage long-term health.
 
The good news?
 
You can swap to safer alternatives:
Beeswax or soy candles with cotton/bamboo wicks
Diffusers that use 100% essential oils
Natural ways to freshen air (plants, ventilation, clean sprays)
 
Your environment plays a huge role in your wellness. Start by reducing hidden toxins where you can. Small changes really do add up.
 Have you ever checked the ingredients list on your candle or diffuser? 🧐

What if your fatigue isn’t from overtraining, but from your genes?

Collette is a high-performing natural athlete.

She trains smart. Eats clean. Sleeps well 80-90% of the time

But she still felt like she was constantly pushing… and barely keeping up.

That’s when we ran her DNA test and worked with her bodybuilding coach

What we found changed everything:
🧬 Genes affecting her hormone detox & stress recovery
🧬 Poor methylation → low energy, mental fog
🧬 Circadian rhythm disruption making sleep look fine but feel broken
🧬 High inflammation and slow nutrient metabolism

💡 It wasn’t mindset that needed fixing. It wasn’t motivation. It was her biology and find out how to work WITH her body

Now, with the right support, Collette’s training is smarter, she’s starting to recover faster, and protecting her long-term health.

More will unfold as we progress toward more changes in supplements & nutrition over the coming weeks.

Because when you work with your DNA, everything becomes clearer.

Case Study Part 1: Scot’s Why

After 20 years of training, Scot was doing everything right, but the results just weren’t adding up. He felt something was missing… and he was right.

His 3 Key Goals:
1️⃣ Lose fat and improve body composition
2️⃣ Optimise recovery from training
3️⃣ Upgrade his lifestyle for long-term health & performance

🧬 Why DNA Testing?
Scot was curious, and ready to stop guessing.
He wanted to:
- Train smarter
- Personalise his routine
- Understand how his body actually works

Top Concerns:

⚖️ Hormone health (fatigue)

🧠 Healthy aging (memory, disease prevention & appearance)

After receiving his results, I personally reviewed each high-risk gene trait and created tailored recommendations to help Scot implement lasting change, covering:
- Muscle building strategy
- Supplement protocol
- Vitamins & mineral support
- Skin & hormone health
- Healthy ageing & recovery optimisation

- What Success Looks Like (3–6 Months):

- Match or beat recent progress
- Train with energy and clarity
- Feel confident that every choice supports his biology and long-term health

This was just the start of Scot’s transformation.

- Stay tuned for Part 2: Genetic Insights + Personalised Strategy

14/07/2025

Client Spotlight: Collette Evans
After years of dedicated training, Collette was doing everything right…..but still not seeing the muscle gains she deserved.
The missing piece? Her DNA.

Genetic testing revealed:

Lower IGF-1 (harder to build muscle)
High mTOR (great growth, needs managing)
Strong ACTN3 for explosive power
Slower gains from training, but faster recovery
Mild inflammation impacting results

With a personalised plan — tailored training, nutrition, and targeted supplements, she unlocked new levels of performance and recovery.

Now she trains with her biology, not against it.

“All things are possible when you know how.”

You’re eating clean… but your joints still ache? I’ve heard this so many times

It might not be your age or your training. It could be your food 😮
Specifically: oxalates.

Oxalates are compounds found in many “healthy” foods like spinach, almonds, and sweet potato. (This doesn’t mean these foods are unhealthy)

But if you’re genetically sensitive (and many people over 40 are), they can cause inflammation, joint pain, and even kidney issues.

Your detox genes, B-vitamin metabolism, and gut health all influence how well you handle oxalates.

That’s why I use DNA methylation testing in all of my coaching.

It takes the guesswork out of food, supplements, and recovery and gives you a real blueprint for feeling better.

Want to know if oxalates are slowing you down?
DM me “DNA” and I’ll send the test info.

🧬 No more guessing. Just answers.

Sleep-Sabotaging Habits After 35 (And What to Do Instead)

😴 Still waking up tired, even when you get 7+ hours?

It might not be your sleep quantity it’s your sleep quality.
And after 35, your biology starts to change.

Here are the common habits silently sabotaging your recovery (even the “healthy” ones)…
plus what to do instead 👇

🧠 You might already know the basics (like blue light and caffeine)…
But few people talk about:

🌛Methylation issues that keep cortisol high at night
🌙The right kind of candles (yes, really)
🌖Why ultra-quiet bedrooms might worsen your sleep
🌝And the 1 thing to do before bed to stop your mind racing

Swipe to learn what your nervous system actually needs after 35 and how to finally wake up refreshed.

🧬 Before You Biohack, Read This…

Most people dive into health changes with motivation and good intentions, but skip the most powerful tool in the process: understanding how their body actually works.

❌ Assumption isn’t science.
❌ Generic plans = personal results.

When it comes to your metabolism, hormones, energy, or recovery, guesswork doesn’t just waste time, it can derail progress entirely.

Your methylation profile is the blueprint. It reveals how your body processes stress, detoxifies, absorbs nutrients, and even how well you bounce back from workouts or life challenges.

📊 Real results come from data, not trends or assumptions

So before you throw another supplement into your stack or overhaul your routine again…

📩 DM ‘DNA’ to get your personalised health blueprint, so you can stop guessing, and start aligning with your biology.

🧬 7 Signs Your Body Is Struggling to Detox

Feeling foggy, tired, or inflamed? Even though you’re doing “everything right”? These are signs your detox pathways may be overworked or genetically compromised.

Your body’s ability to clear everyday toxins (from food, water, air, and stress) depends on your methylation, liver function, and nutrient status. If these systems are sluggish, symptoms start showing up…

👆 Swipe through to see the 7 signs your detox pathways might need support.

Through DNA methylation testing, we can uncover how efficiently your body processes toxins, nutrients, and stress and give you a roadmap to optimise your detox, energy, and recovery.

Ready to feel clear, calm, and energized again?
