I am very excited to share that I have completed my training as a SIBO Food Roadmap Practitioner. Now certified to use this amazing resource in clinic to better serve my clients with chronic digestive disturbances. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is when conditions have occured (eg poor diet, gastro) that allow the bacteria to overgrow and their fermentation produces specific gases. These gases are tested by breath measuring hydrogen and methane. By using the SIBO Breath Test and a Gut Microbiome Test, a deeper understanding of digestive disturbances can be made. This new resource is truly amazing, a complete step by step 6 phase nutrition guide including recipes designed to accompany practitioner prescribed nutrients for the balance of gut microbiome and better gut health outcomes.

You have three good opportunities a day to nourish your body with awesome food. That food turns into energy and supplies valuable nutrients to service your body for the days, weeks and months ahead. Enjoy great food, let eating not be a chore.

There is nothing more precious than the love of a family. I truly hope you are all acknowledged and shown how much you are appreciated for all that you have done and will continue to do selflessly and unconditionally.

I love Monday's they are my consulting days for my program, I always have such amazing feedback. This was too good not to share.

It doesn't always have to be ferments either, your everyday vegetables arer pre-biotics, such as pumpkin, cabbage, carrrot, zucchini, green peas & beans, brussels sprouts, garlic, onions and leeks do this too.

Overeating is so easy to do. We feast with our eyes, and pile more on our plate than necessary. As a child we may have been told we need to eat everything on it before being excused from the table. Today you may find you finish the left overs on the kids plates or lunch boxes, so it doesn't go to waste. You are not a bin either!

Use nature's gifts to help manage blood sugars. Tip: Regular balanced nutrition is key.

Whole food and sensible eating habits trumps fad diets, weight loss pills, overexerising and meal replacements, every time.

Attention all Women (and Men!) get out your tape measures and check your waist at your belly button. From 88cm for Women and 102cm for me you are at risk at Metabolic Syndrome.

Gut health is vital for good health. Tip - if you eat fementable vegetables, and become bloated you may have SIBO.

Many, many, many of my clients come to me with fatigue and poor sleep. One of the main reasons are they are not getting enough good protein throughout the day, starting with breakfast. In fact, most do not have breakfast at all. 🥹 Here are some ideas to kick start your protein breakfast options.

Non-Heme (Vegetarian) Iron Sources:
Vegetables (per 100gm rounded to whole numbers)
Spinach (3mg), Podded Peas (2mg), Asparagus (2mg), White button mushrooms (2mg), Leek (2mg), Green beans (1mg)
Herbs (per 25gm rounded to whole numbers)
Bay Leaves (10mg) , Coriander Dried (10mg), Celery Seed (11mg), Cumin (17mg), Dill (12mg), Margoram (22mg),
Tumeric Ground (14mg), Spearmint (23mg)

Meal prepping assures the best meal choices, especially when we are pressed for time.

Why does food we prepare and eat and share always seem to taste better? Maybe it's the secret ingredient of Love.

Metabolic Sydrome, are you at risk??

Salmon is also high in Vitamin D3 and a good source of Vitamin A. The fat soluble nutrients.

Do you have dry skin? All of our cells are made from two layers of lipids. These are chemical compounds that appear waxy or or fatty. When you eat good fats your skin is shiny and soft.

Being overweight is more that just holding onto excess kilos.

Keeping our blood sugar within in a healthy range is critical to good health. Devouring a lot of sugar over many years creates the inability of your body to regulate the intake any more. Sugars can be obvious - soft drink, cake, biscuits, or hidden in packaged dried foods and premade meals so check all labels.

ooohh, what kind is your pleasure?

Not only does colour make your plate more visually appealing, these colours are powerful antioxidants in particular sour cherry, red cabbage, cranberry bean, black grape, berries including blueberry, red currant being being very high.

I don't know about being able to tell what you are, but it is quite common to see a person nutrition reflect in their wellness or lack of. Which is why I absolutely adore and love Metabolic Balance and recommend this to all my private clients. No matter how many supplements you take, it can't out do your daily intake of vegetables, proteins and healthy fats.

Your daily fibre content need not be boring.

Avocado is a fruit, not a vegetable, but combines deliciously in salads and smoothies having benefits of healthy fats.

Not all protein needs to come from the obvious meat and chicken.
