Pic of my chocolate cake from last year’s Christmas and ready for a repeat this year 🍫⁣
⁣
This is the chocolate cake I make when I want indulgence without regret.⁣
⁣
Moist, chocolatey and delicious.⁣
Naturally sweetened, gluten and dairy free and full of antioxidants and fibre. ⁣
Best of all it doesn’t leave you feeling heavy or bloated.⁣
⁣
My family requests this one every Christmas, and once you try it, you will understand why.⁣
⁣
Topped with a silky chocolate mousse (yes, avocado is the secret ingredient) and finished with seasonal berries 🍓🍒🫐🎄⁣
⁣

Yay, the wait is over, fresh berries are now in season 🍓⁣
⁣
This photo is from a Saturday morning Willunga Market moment … a last minute msg from my daughter to grab some strawberries for her and Josh’s café at Aldinga .kitchen.⁣
⁣
Since the timing of readiness of some of my mulberry and fruit trees in the garden won’t quite line up for Christmas, I’ll be stocking up with seasonal fruit.⁣
⁣
It’s not just the taste and goodness of fresh fruit and berries, but also the colour and beauty they bring to a platter, garnish, or simple healthy Christmas desserts bringing nutrition and joy to the Christmas table 🎄🍒🫐

With the weather warming up, I have been including more salad type vegetables to boost my daily intake of fibre, vitamins and minerals.⁣
⁣
Remember to add equal portions of vegetables to protein in both your lunch and dinner meals. ⁣
This will keep you feeling fuller for longer, support balanced blood sugar, and add a good punch of nutritional value to your meals.⁣
⁣
A simple, no fuss way for lunchtimes is to include easy grab and go options like snow peas, carrot sticks, celery, capsicum or cucumber. ⁣
⁣
Even in the warmer weather I prefer preparing mine lightly blanched, as this helps release more of the vitamins and can make it easier to digest your protein more efficiently. ⁣

Enjoy the warmer days ahead and stay nourished 💚🫛

Peppermint is one of those herbs we reach for without thinking, yet there is so much more to this herb than a pleasant tasting tea.⁣
⁣
Commonly it’s known for its antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions which makes peppermint especially helpful for colic, spasmodic IBS, acute colitis, gallstone spasms, inflammation and those gripping, uncomfortable digestive moments.⁣
⁣
However did you know traditionally it was also used for fevers, infections, coughs, colds, sinus congestion, dizziness, nausea, headaches and to support concentration.⁣
⁣
A little caution though: peppermint can worsen reflux by relaxing the oesophageal sphincter, and in larger long term amounts / use it can have a drying effect on body fluids, including s***m and breastmilk.⁣
⁣
This is why personalised herbal care matters. ⁣
Sometimes it’s as simple as swapping peppermint for chamomile or ginger for digestive issues or using a tailored liquid extract blend with herbs you won’t find on a supermarket or pharmacy shelf. ⁣
⁣
When it comes to digestion, herbal extract blends are one of my most effective tools and often my first go to, I expect and do see excellent results with my clients. ⁣
⁣
If you are unsure which herbs are right for your body, come see me and I’ll create a safe and effective treatment plan specifically to suit your needs.⁣
⁣
I am fully booked for new bookings for this year however there are a few spots left in February, with more availability from March 2026 onwards 🌿

“I’ve been doing a client’s hair for 20 years, and this is the healthiest I have ever seen her scalp and hair and her skin is glowing.⁣
⁣
She is less stressed and more relaxed. I had to ask what changed?….She told me she’s been seeing Estera, her naturopath, and couldn’t recommend her enough. ⁣
⁣
That was enough for me. I’ve booked in and I’m really looking forward to my first consult.” ⁣

⁣
Thank you, Angela, for allowing me to share what prompted you to book with me 🌿

Not All Seed Oils Are Bad⁣ 🌿
⁣
Be cautious with the highly refined industrial oils like canola, sunflower, soybean and generic “vegetable oil.”⁣
These are heated, chemically extracted and very high in omega-6, which we already get plenty of in our diets.⁣
Too much omega-6 can drive inflammation.⁣
⁣
However, flaxseed, chia and h**p seeds/oils are different.⁣
⁣
𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐱𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐢𝐥 is one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 (ALA)⁣
⁣
𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐱𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 add fibre for gut and hormone balance⁣
⁣
𝐇𝐞𝐦𝐩 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 are high in minerals and protein and a good source of omega-3, with a natural 3:1 omega-6 to omega-3 ratio⁣
⁣
𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 provide omega-3, fibre and protein for steady energy and gut and skin health⁣
⁣
We need omega-6 and omega-3 in the right balance.⁣
⁣
Flax, chia and h**p naturally support that balance without the inflammation risks of refined oils.⁣
⁣
𝐓𝐫𝐲 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐱𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐢𝐥:⁣
• Drizzle over salads⁣
• Add to smoothies⁣
• Mix into yoghurt⁣
• Take 1 teaspoon straight off the spoon ⁣
⁣
𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬:⁣
• Add to salads, veggies, breakfast bowls or smoothies⁣
• Ground flax (and LSA mixes) is best stored in the fridge to prevent oxidation⁣
⁣
For the most bioavailable source of omega-3, fish oil remains first preference as it provides the highest, most usable forms (EPA + DHA), which many people are lacking.⁣
⁣
However, for those who cannot tolerate fish, these plant based seeds are an excellent alternative.

One perfect day…⁣
⁣
Life like health has its ups and downs, but every now and then we are blessed with a day that feels close to perfect.⁣
⁣
This day last year was one of those.⁣
Hiking from morning until dusk with my husband, Paul…⁣
stopping for a picnic by the bluest lake ⁣
breathing in fresh mountain air,⁣
sunshine on our backs,⁣
nature’s beauty surrounding us.⁣
⁣
At the end of the day tired but happy ⁣
we found a cosy restaurant,⁣
and shared one of the tastiest traditional meals I can ever remember 🤍

My nasturtiums are looking like a beautiful, colourful carpet of orange, yellow and green growing rampant under the fruit trees. 🧡⁣
⁣
This old fashioned plant gives us more than beauty, they are also edible. Both the flowers and leaves have a hot, peppery, horseradish like taste that adds colour, spice and flavour to salads and soups, while also making an excellent addition to herbal home remedies.⁣
⁣
Traditionally, herbalists valued nasturtiums for their natural antibiotic and antimicrobial actions, useful for colds, flu, bronchitis, hay fever, and sinus infections. ⁣
⁣
In folk medicine, they were also used to ease bladder infections and boost recovery after illness, thanks to their high levels of vitamin C, carotenoids, quercetin flavonoids, and mustard oil glycosides.⁣
⁣
You can enjoy a few shredded leaves or whole flowers as part of a salad or garnish, add a leaf to blended soup for a peppery flavour, or make a simple herbal tea by steeping a few shredded teaspoons of leaves in hot water for 10–15 minutes. Drink up to three cups daily to help clear the head and lungs.⁣
Eating two to three flowers a day may help ease hay fever symptoms, and pickling the green seed pods makes a great alternative to capers.⁣
⁣
A little note of caution: nasturtiums’ volatile mustard oils may not suit sensitive stomachs and should be avoided during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or by those with kidney disease. 🌿

This week a client came to see me for help with non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and a goal to lose 30 kg. Despite months of healthy eating and exercise, she had only lost 2 kg.⁣
Her GP prescribed a weight loss stimulant medication and an antidepressant, which made her feel seriously unwell. He then tried to convince her to start GLP-1 injectables and even offered her a free Ozempic like injection on the spot. My client declined and came to see me to explore what she could do naturally.⁣
When I told her about my client Roz, who also has about 30 kg to lose and had already dropped 4.7 kg in just 13 days, she decided to start right away.⁣
⁣
However, not everyone joins Metabolic Balance for weight loss. Some come because they feel stuck with a few kilos that won’t shift, while others simply need clarity on what foods truly support their health.⁣
⁣
Gail, for example, had struggled with multiple food sensitivities for years and was becoming more and more limited in what she could eat. Yass has an inflammatory bowel condition and wanted to find foods that would help reduce inflammation and restore balance in his body.⁣
⁣
Here’s what they had to say:⁣
“After struggling to lose menopausal weight and reacting to many foods, Metabolic Balance gave me clarity on what truly supports my body. I now feel confident staying on track with a way of eating that works for me.” Gail⁣
“I’m so pleased I did Metabolic Balance. I’m happy with the program and the foods on my personalised nutrition plan. I also feel confident as it’s backed by science.” Yass⁣
“It’s amazing how quickly my body responded after eating the right foods designed for me.” Roz⁣
⁣
If you have been feeling stuck, frustrated, or unsure where to start, visit the link in my bio, go to the “Services” section, and select Metabolic Balance. It’s never too late to find a personalised, drug free program that truly works for you. 🍎

Parsnips are often overlooked when choosing root vegetables yet when prepared well, they have a delicious sweet and nutty flavour. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Parsnips can be mashed, baked into chips, added to soups, or my favourite roasted until slightly caramelised with olive oil, herbs, or just salt and pepper.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Carrots have higher betacarotene and vitamin A, great for immunity, eye, and skin health.
However, parsnips contain significantly higher levels of potassium and also provide small amounts of magnesium, iron, zinc, and phosphorus, while being lower in sodium.⁣
Potassium in particular supports heart health, blood pressure, and muscle and nerve function.⁣
⁣⁣
Although parsnips are higher in carbohydrates they have a moderate glycaemic index and a lower glycaemic load thanks to their fibre.
This means they provide a slow, steady release of energy keeping you satisfied without spiking blood sugar 🤍

𝐓𝐚𝐭𝐚’𝐬 𝐑𝐨𝐬ół – 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐩 (𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫’𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞) 🍲🇵🇱⁣
⁣
Last night, while it was raining, windy, and cold outside we were lucky to be warm inside enjoying a hot bowl of rosoł using my father’s traditional Polish chicken soup recipe.⁣
⁣
Growing up, every Sunday without fail, whether it was 40°C or 10°C outside there was always chicken soup served for dinner. ⁣
It was our family staple, as it is for so many Polish families, and to this day it remains one of my fondest food memories.⁣
⁣
Even after my father passed away I have carried on the tradition with my own family, and it’s wonderful to see my daughters keeping it alive in their own ways whether creating their own delicious versions or enjoying a bowl at a café or restaurant.⁣
⁣
For this photo, I served it in one of the old enamel plates my father always used. ⁣
While the rest of us preferred smaller ceramic bowls.
I’ve kept those plates and they have become one of the many sentimental treasures that remind me of him.⁣
⁣
This is the one comfort meal that never fails to nourish and soothe the body, support healing, and bring the family together, whether to celebrate an occasion or simply to share a meal.⁣
⁣
The traditional version uses a simple clear chicken broth, noodles, carrot, and chicken. ⁣
However, every now and then I like to give it an Asian twist with bok choy, bean sprouts, fresh coriander, chili, and a squeeze of lemon for extra flavour. 🌿🌶🍋⁣
