Even when testosterone looks low or “normal” on a blood test, it can still be metabolised too quickly into DHT - or cleared too slowly - creating symptoms of high androgen activity like acne, oily skin, or hair loss.

On the other hand, if conversion is sluggish, you might experience low libido, fatigue, or poor muscle tone, even with adequate testosterone.

That’s why a urine testing is so valuable - it helps uncover how your body is actually processing hormones, not just how much is present - something a blood test simply can’t reveal.

A blend using a clinic favourite this morning: Saffron 🌱

PMS & PMDD
Several studies show saffron significantly reduces mood related PMS symptoms including anger, irritability, rage and tension within two cycles of use. Paired with B6 and magnesium results were further enhanced.

POSTPARTUM MOOD
Saffron benefits postpartum mood changes - helping reduce anger, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm in new mothers. Studies have found significant improvement in postpartum depressive symptoms compared to placebo, and comparable efficacy to fluoxetine for postpartum depression.

DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY
Clinical studies show saffron as effective as antidepressants for moderate depression and anxiety.

Let’s chat thyroid testing 🩸

You can have a normal TSH result, but still have an under active or overactive thyroid.

If so, you may feel tired, anxious, sluggish, or experience weight, sleep, mood, digestion and menstrual changes.

In 2007, a study conducted by Southampton University in the UK took a look at the way that food had changed over the years, mainly - the additives.

The study drew attention to the fact that artificial food additives can cause behavioural changes including hyperactivity in children.

In addition, the biggest food colouring offenders - known as the Southampton Six - have also been flagged as possible carcinogens (cancer causing) and allergens (think digestion, skin, etc.)

The Southhampton Six are: 102, 104, 110, 122, 124, 129

These colourings have been banned overseas, but are still sold here in NZ.

BACK IN STOCK 🤎

Our absolute favourite multivitamin for women.

Where possible, nutrients should be taken in their whole state - their original source: real food.

The synergy of nutrients in wholefoods is something we’ll probably never fully understand - not even science can replicate it.

That’s why we love The Mothers Blend.

It’s a wholefood multinutrient powder, intentionally formulated with some of the most nutrient-dense ingredients often missing from even the healthiest diets - grass-fed liver for natural B12 and folate, kelp for iodine, camu camu for vitamin C and antioxidants, and fermented greens like chlorella, spinach, and broccoli for folate (and so much more).

Available in clinic & online now.

Let’s chat iron testing 🩸

If you’re feeling tired, foggy, anxious, have heavy periods or headaches - and bloods show all is well - that might not actually be the case at all.

For this patient, her results showed her body wasn’t actually using the iron she had stored. Her ferritin was high, but her transferrin saturation was low - meaning iron was trapped in storage, not available for energy production.

Loved by everyone who’s tried it, our One-Pot Spicy Green Curry has become a firm favourite from our 28-Day Detox Program.

It’s the kind of meal that feels like you’ve gone to a lot of effort, but secretly takes 20 minutes, uses one pot, is packed with protein, loaded with fibre, and is perfect as leftovers for lunch.

If you’re in a bit of a food rut or just want something warming and healthy, this one’s for you!
