All you ladies out there, eat your carrot salad.

Why?

The carrot binds to oestrogen and stops it recycling through your liver-gut pathway and allows it to be excreted preventing oestrogen dominance.

When it comes to managing weight (especially after a cancer diagnosis) the conventional advice of “eat less, move more” often falls short. The human body is much more complex… and real, lasting wellness goes far deeper than counting calories.

Our guest expert Emmie at Hummingbird Naturopath says, “Weight loss isn’t rocket science, it's more complicated than that…” 🚀🤪

Which is why we’re delighted to welcome her to TAC on Thursday 28th August for a deeper exploration into the topic!

She will cover:
🌿 Traditional calorie-deficit diets & how they’re not the whole story
🌿 You are what you absorb
🌿 Weight management in relation to insulin resistance, hormones, thyroid, gut biome, arthritis & ageing
🌿 Emotional connection to food
🌿 Supportive supplements
🌿 Everyday recipes for weight management

Whether you’re navigating a cancer journey, or simply trying to feel better in your body, this approach honours the science and the soul of healing - as well as the complexity of your journey. It's about restoring energy, balance and trust in your body again. ⚖️✨💜

Take a clean jar and half fill with new season, green cloves of garlic which have been peeled.

Pour raw, unpasteurised, local honey over the garlic to fill the jar. Place the lid on, but not too tightly.

Place the jar on a saucer or plate and leave in a cool, dark place for about a month. Turn the jar occasionally, or give it a shake.

The garlic-honey will turn more liquid as the moisture is drawn out of the garlic cloves.

Fantastic for sore throat, coughs, cardiovascular disease, infections and boosting the immune system.

Will keep indefinitely if stored correctly, although I promise it won't last that long!

This kinda plate keeps me healthy on the outside and happy on the inside.

Your microbiome, made up of a trillion microbiota, which is housed in your gut, is responsible for 70% of your immune system health and produces approximately 80% of your serotonin, the happiness neurotransmitter.

Eat a wide variety of fruits, veggies, pulses, beans and fermented foods like kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, miso and live yoghurt to supplement your population and feed the microbes.

Probiotics = contain different strains of beneficial bacteria

Prebiotics = feed the beneficial bacteria
