JANUARY: THE DANGERS OF EXTREME DIETING
January often brings a rush toward extreme dietary changes, challenges like Veganuary, detoxes, juicing, or 'clean eating' resets. But these approaches can sometimes do more harm than good.
FOOD GROUPS
Choosing to cut out whole food groups whilst prioritising others in an attempt to detox or start fresh, can unintentionally worsen preexisting nutritional imbalances, leaving people even lower in key vitamins, minerals, or macronutrients without realising it. Doing so could result in a wide variety of symptoms, such as bloating, fatigue, brain fog, or headaches in the short-term, and potentially more serious consequences in the longer-term, outcomes which are completely avoidable and preventable.
BASE YOUR CHOICES ON EVIDENCE
When was the last time you did a nutritionally-orientated blood test? Instead of guessing which food are healthy or not, or what your body may need, a far safer and more effective approach is to start with a blood test.
PERSONALISATION IS KEY
A blood test gives clear insight into your current nutritional status, so you can personalise your diet to support your health, focusing on what your body actually needs more or less of, and avoiding unnecessary restrictions or supplements you don’t need. Sustainable health isn’t about extremes; it’s about informed, personalised choices.
