Pumpkins aren’t just for Halloween 🎃… they’re a year-round superfood with some amazing health benefits:

1️⃣ Immune support - rich in betacarotene (vitamin A) and vitamin C
2️⃣ Heart health - magnesium, potassium and healthy fats, especially in the seeds
3️⃣ Prostate & urinary health - pumpkin seed oil has great research behind it
4️⃣ Hormone balance - magnesium and zinc to support healthy hormones
5️⃣ Eye health - betacarotene and lutein to protect vision and the macula

Next time you see pumpkins or pumpkin seeds, don’t just think decoration - think nutrition.

This week is World Menopause Day 🌸

If you’re approaching menopause or already menopausal, your feed is probably full of “miracle fixes” promising weight loss, mood boosts and joint relief. Most of that? Illegal claims and poor advice.

Here’s what actually works, based on evidence:

Magnesium - your de-stress mineral, also supports bones and heart

Omega-3 - joints, inflammation, skin and heart health

Vitamin D + K2 - protects immune health

Creatine - boosts energy in the brain and can help with cognition and brain fog

Take them individually for the best dosage, choose reputable brands, and don’t stress about needing everything.

If you want personalised guidance, the Amaranth nutritionists are happy to chat - book a Free Health Review in the link in our bio.

Sleep struggles, mood swings, restless legs, or aching muscles?

Magnesium is a quiet hero for many women in midlife. It supports over 300 reactions in the body - from calming the nervous system to building strong bones and steadying heart rhythm.

Make sure to load up on leafy greens, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and dark chocolate.

If you need extra support, look for clean, well-absorbed forms such as citrate, glycinate, malate, or taurate - and choose a trusted brand.

Our nutritional therapists recommend Viridian, Natures Plus and TerraNova.

Magnesium won’t erase every menopause symptom, but topping up this vital mineral can make a real difference to sleep, calm, bone health, and energy. Read more in our blog on our website.

Just landed and just in time for World Menopause Day this week…

As nutritional therapists, we always think food and lifestyle first, so we couldn’t be more delighted to see that this year’s World Menopause Day theme is Lifestyle Medicine. This theme recognises that nutrition, sleep, stress, and movement can all support wellbeing and ease symptoms during menopause.

Alongside these foundations, we also believe that good quality, targeted supplements can play an important role. That’s why we’re so happy to recommend Dr Vegan:

🧠 Protein & Creatine Superblend — Protein is essential for so many body functions, including supporting healthy blood sugar balance, yet it can be hard to get enough in busy lives. I’m also a big fan of creatine at the moment, it helps recycle energy in muscles and the brain, and I’ve personally noticed improvements in focus, concentration, and strength.

🦴 Osteofriend - I’ve always struggled to find a complete bone support product that doesn’t require taking four or more capsules a day, so I was delighted when this powder arrived! Bone support is vital for women, especially in peri-menopause and beyond, as oestrogen plays a key role in bone protection. This supplement is ideal for women who can’t or choose not to take HRT. It’s so complete that it could be your one supplement — most multis contain very little calcium and magnesium, but this packs in almost the full RDA.

Whizz these supplement powders up with some berries and organic milk or plant milk and you have ticked a lot of your daily support in one smoothie.

As always, our nutritional therapists are here to offer free advice and help match the right supplements to your individual needs.

Big news - we’re launching a brand new facial with SKIN-RG Skincare and it is now ready to book 🎉

The Exosomes Range is all about next-level skin rejuvenation. Think of exosomes as super boosters - packed with collagen, peptides, microbiome and elastin boosters - all delivered with organic, natural and vegan ingredients.

Until now, these results were only possible with injections or harsher treatments like microneedling. Now we can achieve them through this powerful new facial.

Whether you want to calm inflammation, repair skin, brighten pigmentation, or lift and firm - there’s an exosome treatment to suit you. And of course, it’s all included in my one-hour facial designed to leave you glowing.

We can’t wait to show you more in the coming weeks ✨

Book now with a very special offer: https://www.phorest.com/salon/amaranth/book/service-groups/dQvVP9T190XDgQjudyKVRxZhP6B51oaB5Tn5JhXllnk

Deodorant leaving you with sore, itchy armpits? You’re not alone.

Brands like Mitchum contain aluminium salts, synthetic fragrances and preservatives that can really irritate the skin - and that’s without any formula changes.

Natural deodorants are a gentler choice. Ben & Anna (with baking soda), Wild (refillable and sustainable), and Dr Hauschka rose deodorant (beautiful natural fragrance) are all great options.

If you switch, give it a week for your body to adjust - it’s worth it in the long run.
