Why is it so important to be well hydrated?

Water is vital to life. Our bodies are made up of over 70% water and it is hardly surprising that we need to drink it regularly maintain optimum bodily functions. Adults lose around 2-3 litres of water each day through sweat, breathing and urine. This water must be replaced and is essential for the function of every cell in the body.

How much water should you drink every day?

Adequate daily fluid intake for most adults is 2-3 litres per day. A more exact amount can be calculated by (body weight in kg x 30m)l = daily fluid needs. This doesn’t take into account extra needs for exercise or hot weather.

In clinic, I often tell clients that dark, concentrated urine is a sign of dehydration while pale, clear urine usually signifies adequate fluid intake.

A practical tip to reduce oestrogen excess is to avoid using plastic food wrap, plastic water bottles and heating food in plastic containers.

These are major sources of environmental oestrogens.

Glass containers can be used instead as an alternative.

You’ve probably heard of the “love” or “bonding” hormone, oxytocin. This is a peptide hormone, which acts as both a hormone and a brain neurotransmitter. It is known as the love hormone because it is released during contact with a loved one.

Oxytocin is made in the hypothalamus and transported and secreted by the pituitary gland at the base of the brain. Its release also helps with childbirth and breastfeeding.

It is also known to have an anti-anxiety effect and may help to relieve social anxiety. Research shows that oxytocin promotes relaxation and trust, which makes it easier to manage social situations.

Perfect for the VERY warm weather we are having at the moment!

Watermelon & Peppermint Tea

Soak the teabags in the boiling water for a few minutes and then allow to completely cool.

Using a stick blender or smoothie maker blitz the watermelon and strain so it’s smooth.

Combine together and stir well.

To serve add lots of ice to a tall glass and some fresh mint.

High in protein, calcium and ‘good’ fats, feta is a traditional Greek cheese usually made from goat’s or sheep’s milk.

This makes feta easier to digest and less inflammatory than traditional cow’s milk cheese.

Look for an organic brand in the supermarket and consume it in moderation. Feta is a great addition to salads and omelettes or served on a slice of cucumber with a sprinkle of pepper for an easy afternoon snack.

The luteal phase (after ovulation until your period) is crucial for preparing the uterus for pregnancy, driven by progesterone.

Imbalances (low progesterone, high estrogen) can cause PMS, cramps, acne, fluid retention and short cycles (< 12 days). Seed cycling and nutrition can help balance these important hormones - supporting fertility by optimising hormones for a potential pregnancy.

LSA - stands for linseed, sunflower seed and almond and comes in the form of blended ground meals. It can be found in the health-food aisle of most supermarkets.

LSA is a great source of protein, calcium, ‘good’ fats and fibre. It should be kept in the fridge when you get home to keep the fats fresh and reduce rancidity.

Add LSA to smoothies, yoghurt, porridges and baking.
