The Hair Test for Food & Environmental Substances tests your hair for over 230 foods & environmental substances. These include a wide range of chemicals (Round Up, pesticides, chlorine, detergents) gut bugs (candida, giardia, worms), pollens, mould and all types of foods.
It is suitable for all ages, especially for symptoms like rashes, eczema, hives, hay-fever, recurring infections, reflux, constipation, bloating, diarrhoea, gut pain. As well as fatigue and poor sleep.

NO NEED TO COME INTO CLINIC: You take your hair sample and send it directly to my tester and I will email you the results once they are back.
'After years trying many modalities to help with my digestive and sinus issues, I decided to have a Hair Test (with naturopathic support) and after 4 months of following the Hair Test guidelines – I have virtually no digestive problems, I no longer have flagging energy at the end of the day, plus my throat and sinus issues have completely cleared up. Jasmin is great at explaining things & super organised. Good follow-up as well. Thankyou Jasmin"

And some recent feedback from the parent of a young child.
"The layout of the Hair Test is so clear & it is easy to understand which foods to eat & for how long we need to avoid others. I am finding it much more user friendly than the test I have used before with XX."
This comprehensive test is $180

Here we are already in March — and what a shift we're starting to feel. The air is cooling, the light is softening, and autumn is quietly making herself known. There's something grounding about this season; a natural invitation to slow down, nourish ourselves a little more intentionally, and pay a...

Always eat before your coffee.

Always.

Drinking coffee on an empty stomach spikes cortisol, irritates your digestive lining, and sets you up for an energy crash later in the day.

Try one of these first:
🥑 Eggs on toast with avocado
🫐 Greek yoghurt with berries and nuts
🌾 Overnight oats with chia and almond butter
Then enjoy your coffee. Your body will thank you. ✨

Did you know drinking coffee before 10am could be working against you?

Your cortisol naturally peaks between 6–9am — adding caffeine on top disrupts your body’s own energy rhythm and leaves you more dependent on that cup over time.

Try waiting until after 10am and see how you feel. Small shift, big difference. ☕

Oat & Green Banana Flour Muffins ⬇️- Recipe:

Wet Ingredients:
4 tbsp butter, melted
1 tbsp date syrup
2 large overripe bananas
1/4 cup sultanas

Dry Ingredients:
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup oats
1/2 cup spelt flour
1/2 cup green banana flour
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 tbsp collagen protein powder

Instructions
Sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
Mix melted butter, syrup, and mashed bananas in a separate bowl.
Add wet mix and sultanas and walnuts into the large bowl of dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Bake 15-20 minutes at 180°C (350°F).

Tips
If you have frozen bananas: Defrost them in the fridge overnight before use, and drain the liquid from them before adding to the mix.
For a dairy-free option: Swap butter out for oil.
Optional additions: Fresh blueberries, cacao nibs, or cacao powder

Ingredient Benefits
Collagen Protein Powder: Adding collagen protein helps slow down the absorption of sugars, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels and prevent energy spikes and crashes. It also supports gut health, skin elasticity, and joint function.

Green Banana Flour: This flour is high in resistant starch, which acts like fiber in the digestive system. It helps improve blood sugar control by slowing glucose absorption, supports digestive health by feeding beneficial gut bacteria, and promotes feelings of fullness, making these muffins more satisfying.
