We have this discussion on a daily basis. Insulin Resistance is the driver behind the issue. Yes processed foods are an issue, in a clean diet, salt is required.

For decades, salt has been blamed as the main driver of high blood pressure. But the science tells a more nuanced story.

In most people, hypertension is linked to insulin resistance, not sodium intake alone. When insulin stays chronically high, the kidneys hold onto sodium, blood vessels stiffen, and blood pressure rises — even on a low-salt diet.

What actually drives this process:
→ Excess sugar and refined carbohydrates
→ Ultra-processed foods
→ Chronic stress and poor sleep
→ Metabolic dysfunction

Only a small subset of people are genuinely salt-sensitive. For everyone else, aggressively cutting salt without addressing insulin resistance misses the real cause.

Supporting metabolic health through real food, adequate protein, lower sugar intake, movement, and stress regulation does far more for blood pressure than salt restriction alone.

Salt didn’t break your blood pressure. Metabolic stress did.

Please read and with ALL medications INCLUDING supplements we must always use caution and be aware of the implications.

You CAN'T out run a bad diet. If you don't change the cause you won't fix the problem.

Yes, there is a place for these medications. But it must be alongside better lifestyle changes. Everything in life must have a balance.

If you are considering medication, then please consider looking at nutriton as a first line and get the RIGHT advice.

Mother Nature NEVER got it wrong! WE DID!

Chronic inflammation is one of the most common reasons people feel tired, sore, foggy, and stuck even when blood tests look “normal.”

Inflammation interferes with insulin signalling, mitochondrial energy production, hormone balance, and tissue repair. Over time, this shows up as low energy, joint pain, muscle aches, headaches, poor recovery, and metabolic slowdown.

The good news is that inflammation is highly responsive to food.

These anti-inflammatory foods work by
→ stabilising blood sugar
→ reducing oxidative stress
→ supporting gut health
→ providing essential fatty acids and micronutrients
→ improving mitochondrial function

This isn’t about adding superfoods on top of a poor diet. It’s about consistently choosing foods that calm the immune system instead of triggering it.

If pain, fatigue, or stiffness improves when food quality improves, that’s not coincidence — it’s physiology.

Simple starting point: Build meals around protein, add healthy fats, prioritise vegetables, and reduce ultra-processed foods and sugars. The body often responds quickly when inflammation drops.

Save this as a reference and notice how your energy and pain respond when these foods become regular, not occasional.
