Informed consent is not a courtesy.
It is a legal and ethical requirement.

Explaining options is your job.
Respecting refusal is also your job.

When information turns into pressure, fear, or threats of consequence, consent no longer exists.

Patients are not problems to manage.
They are people with rights.

And some of us know them.

❤️ A mama that knows her rights.

🥕 Whole Health Tip 🥕

Did you know kids are up to 80% more likely to try new foods when they’ve helped prepare them? 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

Research backs it up - studies in journals like Appetite, Public Health Nutrition and the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior have all shown that children who help with cooking eat more fruit and vegetables, have better long-term eating habits, and feel more confident around food. 🍓🥦

Even small jobs like washing veggies, stirring sauce or setting the table make a big difference - turning mealtimes into moments of learning, connection and pride.

Cooking together isn’t just about the meal – it’s about raising curious, capable, and healthy little humans. 💚

❌ Choose your restriction….❌

I hear people all the time saying “I could never stop eating gluten, it’s too restrictive”.

For those people that are gluten sensitive (and I’m going to argue that most people are) eating gluten is a HUGE restriction. For me, it restricts almost every aspect of my life.

My body aches.
My mind is foggy.
My joints are inflamed.
My stomach hurts.
I get sick easily.
I am exhausted.
My body is weak.
My moods are flat.

Restricting gluten on my plate is LIBERATING! It means I don’t have to suffer from any of those restrictions. It means I can show up and participate in life to the fullest (like here, snorkelling with my favourites).

Choose your hard. A small restriction on your plate can have a monumental liberation for your body.

This kind of reporting is wildly dangerous and misleading 😆 There are levels of gluten allergy ranging from sensitivities to intolerances and celiacs disease. To say that ‘before cutting out gluten you should first test for celiacs disease’ is downright irresponsible and horrifying coming from a specialist.

THIS or THAT? 🍞

When it comes to gluten free bread, what’s really going into your loaf?

Store bought gluten free breads are filled to the hilt with absolute crap. Your body doesn’t recognise the ingredients (and I can hardly pronounce them 😆).

Swipe across to make your own. I often diving this into two smaller loaf pans.

Happy baking 💙
