Did you know your gut and brain are constantly talking to each other? 🧠💬

This explains why gut health can have a powerful impact on mood, stress levels, sleep and overall mental wellbeing. 💚

Often called the body’s “second brain”, your gut does far more than aid digestion. From the foods we eat to how we manage stress, small everyday lifestyle choices can make a real difference to gut health - and in turn, support a healthier mind.

Today begins the start of Mental Health Awareness Week 💚 so we’re asking our expert team for some of their top tips and health advice.

Did you know that what we eat can have a real impact on mood, energy and concentration?

Our resident Paediatric Dietitian Danel shares one of her favourite mood-boosting snacks for busy families - delicious homemade oat bars packed with wholesome ingredients to help support steady energy levels throughout the day. 😋

Perfect for lunchboxes, after-school snacks or a healthy pick-me-up for adults too.

Living by the sea is wonderful for the soul - but did you know coastal residents can be up to 50% more at risk of skin cancer than those living inland? 🌊☀️

At this time of year, UV rays in the UK are at their strongest between late spring and early autumn, especially from 11am–3pm. Even on cloudy days, UV damage still happens.

A few simple habits can make a huge difference:
☑️ Wear SPF 30 or higher every day 😇
☑️ Reapply sunscreen regularly, especially after swimming or sweating 🏊‍♀️
☑️ Don’t forget easy-to-miss areas like the tops of your ears, eyelids, scalp parting, neck and feet 😚
☑️ Wear sunglasses and a hat where possible 🧢
☑️ Seek shade during peak daytime sun 🌲

And yes - many daily moisturisers now include SPF protection, making it much easier to protect your skin as part of your morning routine.

Protect your skin now and your future self will thank you. 💚

Ever wondered what your GP is writing after you leave the room?

✍️ a secret diary?
🥒 a shopping list?
📺 that Netflix series you recommended?
📝 notes about your impressive pain tolerance?!

Not quite. Dr Lexi, like all our GPs, takes the extra time to make sure every detail of your care is documented, reviewed and followed up. Those extra minutes, to write all the details, makes all the difference for your onward care.

We have a few morning appointments available this Monday (yes, on the Bank Holiday!). Click the 🔗 in bio to book. 🩺💚
