Is There a Blood Test for Depression?
Yes… No… Actually, Yes!

While there’s no single test to diagnose depression, there are many blood tests that can uncover underlying causes—yet they’re rarely offered in standard care.

At Botanica Medica, we look deeper. From inflammation and nutrient deficiencies to hormone imbalances and viral history, we run targeted tests to help you understand what’s driving your symptoms.

Some key markers we assess:
• Omega-3 Index
• Thyroid function
• Vitamin D, B12, Folate, Iron, Zinc, Magnesium
• PTH, Cortisol, DHEA
• Homocysteine
• Gut and immune markers
• Genetic susceptibilities
• S*x hormones for women and men (Oestradiol, Progesterone, Prolactin, Testosterone)
• Blood Sugar regulation, especially Oral Glucose tolerance test (OGTT) which tests function of insulin, not just a standard blood glucose level

Depression is complex—but many contributing factors are measurable and treatable. As both a Naturopath and Pharmacist, I work with your strengths and tailor safe, effective support—even alongside prescribed medications.

Dry Body Brushing — Benefits + 20% OFF This January 🛍️

Dry body brushing has been practiced for centuries in traditional natural health. Using a dry, soft natural‑bristle brush, you gently sweep the skin before a shower or bath — a simple ritual with powerful benefits.

Why Dry Body Brushing?

• Supports your skin’s natural detoxification
Your skin is your largest organ and plays a major role in daily detoxification. It’s also the first to show signs of imbalance, so caring for it matters.
• Gently exfoliates + boosts cell renewal
Brushing removes dead skin cells, stimulates oil‑replenishing glands, and leaves your skin smoother, softer, and silkier.
• Encourages lymphatic flow
The brushing action helps stimulate your lymphatic system, supporting the removal of waste and toxins.
• Improves circulation + skin texture
The gentle pressure increases blood flow, helps reduce the appearance of cellulite, and promotes supple, glowing skin — along with an overall sense of wellbeing.

Dry body brushes are available at Botanica Medica, 97 Glen Osmond Road, Eastwood.

Why You Should Be Fussy About Withania: Root vs Leaf

Herbal medicine has been trusted for thousands of years. But here’s the catch: not all parts of a plant are created equal. Using the wrong species — or even the wrong part of the right plant — can change its effects. Sometimes it makes the herb ineffective, sometimes unsafe.

Think of the potato: the tuber is nutritious, but the leaves and stems are toxic. Withania (Ashwagandha) works the same way — the part you use matters.

🕰️ Traditional Wisdom
For centuries, Ayurveda and Unani medicine prized the root as a rejuvenating tonic. Taken orally, it was used for stress, sleep, inflammation, and vitality. The leaves, on the other hand, were mostly applied externally for their strong, cytotoxic effects — not something you’d want to take daily.

📚 Official Guidelines
Trusted references like the World Health Organization, American Herbal Pharmacopoeia, and Health Canada all agree:
👉 The root is the correct part to use.

🔬 Science Confirms It

• Leaves contain very high levels of Withaferin A — a compound studied for cancer but toxic to healthy cells.
• Roots have much lower levels, making them safer for everyday use.
• Over 30 human clinical trials show root extracts help with stress, anxiety, sleep, thyroid health, arthritis, fertility, and blood sugar balance.
• Safety studies confirm the root is well tolerated, even at high doses.

🌟 The Botanica Medica Difference
We’re fussy in the right way. Our naturopaths don’t just choose the right plant part — we choose the right brands. Every herb we use is high quality and standardised, meaning the active constituents are measured and consistent. These are the same compounds proven in clinical trials to deliver real results.

✅ The Takeaway
Both tradition and modern science point to the same conclusion: Withania root is the safe, effective choice for oral use. And when paired with Botanica Medica’s commitment to quality, you know you’re getting herbal medicine that works — reliably, safely, and with results you can feel and trust.

💄 Part 7: The Secret to a Natural Make-Up Finish
Dr. Hauschka Facial Toner isn’t just skincare—it’s also a beauty hack. A light mist over your make-up helps to set your look while giving a softer, more natural finish. Think of it as the bridge between care and cosmetics, ensuring your skin feels fresh and your make-up looks effortless.

✨ Pro Tips for Everyday Use
• After-shave hero: Gentle and refreshing for men’s skin.
• Summer spritz: Keep in the fridge for a cooling burst of hydration.
• Make-up setter: Mist lightly for a natural, lasting finish.
• On-the-go hydration: Carry a trial size in your bag for instant refreshment.
• Travel essential: Mist during flights to combat dryness.

🌸 Why Dr. Hauschka Toner Stands Apart
Unlike conventional toners used with cotton pads to remove cleanser residue, Dr. Hauschka Toners are botanical treatment products. They nurture, balance, and prepare your skin—making them the hidden gem of your daily ritual.

✅ Quality You Can Trust
• Certified natural & organic (NATRUE)
• Free from synthetic fragrances, dyes, preservatives, mineral oils, parabens, silicones, phthalates, PEGs
• Dermatologically tested for sensitive skin
• Cruelty-free—never tested on animals
• Raw materials sourced from controlled organic or biodynamic (Demeter certified) cultivation under fair conditions.

🎄 Christmas may be over, but the flavour doesn’t have to be!
Let’s turn those festive leftovers into something frittata-licious — easy, nourishing, and guaranteed to get your taste buds jingling.

This is Amber’s gluten-free Left-over Frittata is packed with roast veg, soft cheese, herbs, and a cheeky spoonful of chutney. Perfect for brunch, lunchboxes, or lazy summer dinners.

Ingredients
Olive oil (cold-pressed)
640g leftover cooked greens (Asparagus, broccoli), and mixed veg (Roast pumpkin, mushrooms, capsicum, tomato, onion)
12 free-range eggs
70g leftover soft cheese, such as Brie, Camembert, Stilton, Ricotta or Feta
2 tablespoons chilli jam or chutney (Beerenberg do both!!)
100g cheddar cheese (grated)
extra virgin olive oil
Herbs to season, optional and use what you enjoy. My recommendations are (fresh parsley, spring onion/chives, paprika, salt, pepper)
40g mixed baby spinach

Salad (recommended)
80g mixed baby spinach, watercress and rocket
1 lemon
1 small handful of seeds (pumpkin seeds, h**p seeds) (optional)
A few slices of red onion

Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 200°C. Place a large cast iron or a stainless-steel frying pain on medium heat, after a couple of minutes heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil. While pan is heating up, roughly chop greens and veggies and mix everything into the pan. Allow to heat through and slightly crisp up.
2. Beat the eggs in a large bowl, add in a pinch of your preferred herbs, mixing well. Add egg mixture into fry pan, allowing to heat for 1-2 minutes, then add chunks of soft cheese and chilli jam.
3. Top with cheddar cheese and transfer the pan to the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until the frittata is golden and set (check the middle with a skewer).
4. Turn the frittata out onto a board, cut into quarters and serve with the salad on the side.

🌿 Delicious hot or chilled, and perfect for lunchboxes, picnics, or lazy brunches.
