Probiotics are great, but they’re not a solution to all digestive concerns.

Most uncomfortable symptoms aren’t caused by a lack of beneficial bacteria (probiotics) — they’re caused by things like eating on the go, poor gut motility (movement of the muscles of the intestines), insufficient gastric acid production, an overgrowth of unfavourable organisms, poorly managed stress, or a diet high in processed food.

If the gut environment isn’t right, adding more “good bacteria” won’t do much. PLUS, not all probiotic strains do the same thing — so a generic probiotic rarely targets the real root cause.

Think of probiotics as support, not the solution. Fix the why behind your symptoms, work with a practitioner to chose the most clinically indicated probiotics for you with the ultimate goal to not feel like you have take a probiotic for the rest of your life!

Mindful eating this silly season 🤪🌲

Do you ever catch yourself eating mindlessly, while you reply to a work email, between yelling at the dog for barking at the postman, quickly touching base with the group chat all while not even thinking about chewing the food you’re supposed to be eating? Yeah surprisingly that is not conducive to optimal digestion 😅.

Our brain and gut are in constant communication so if we are in flight or flight mode (sympathetic nervous system activation) our digestive system will not be ready to process the food we are eating. So in order to kickstart good digestion, we need to signal to our BRAIN that we are in rest and digest mode (parasympathetic nervous system activation).

So how do we do this?
> Try to only eat when you feel hungry
> Try to only eat when you are seated
> Take 2-5 slow, deep belly breaths before eating
> Avoid distractions (screens!)
> Eat slowly
> Chew thoroughly
> Try to be the last person to finish eating at the table this Christmas

This picture is from our recent time away. It was very easy to eat mindfully, as we sat in front of this super peaceful view - I only took my phone out to take a picture I swear. While trying new, local food is one of the absolute BEST parts of travel, making your own simple meal is sometimes all you need. Don’t worry I tried plenty of authentic local food as well. 🥲

Closed: 10th Oct - 4th Nov

I’ll be taking a little break 🏖️ from the 10th October – 4th November. During this time I’ll be switching off completely, so will be away from answering phone calls or emails.

👉 Need supplement repeats to keep you going? Please reach out before October to make sure you’re stocked up.

I’m really excited for this time away and I appreciate your understanding. ✨

Let’s talk 💩.
Your stool can be one of the clearest windows into your gut health — and the Bristol Stool Chart is a simple tool to help you understand what’s normal (and what’s not).

✅ Type 3–4: Usually a sign of healthy digestion.
⚠️ Too hard or too loose? Could point to issues with hydration, diet, stress, or gut microbiome imbalances.

Your gut is always talking to you… sometimes you just have to check the toilet bowl to hear it.

Is there anything worse than a mouth ulcer!?

A single, one-off mouth ulcer isn’t overly concerning but recurrent/multiple mouth ulcers are definitely worth further investigation 🔬👀

My drink bottle looks a little different in winter 🥶

I’m adding a couple of slices of raw ginger in the morning, filling half with hot water and half with room temperature water. Then just topping up throughout the day as needed. This obviously works well in a glass bottle but could work in a big thermos mug too.

As ginger is a circulatory stimulant it’s helping to keep cold fingers and toes a little warmer while gently stimulating the digestive system.

Ginger is one food we always try to buy organic, it’s quite heavily pesticided in Australia and because I’m a little lazy with peeling - it feels like the safest option. If you can only source non-organic ginger I would say peeling is more of a priority (to reduce pesticide residue). 🧡

While the food we choose to eat, massively impacts the way our digestive system works - it is definitely not the only factor.

Things like the composition of our gut microbiome (good vs bad gut bugs), sleep quality, physical activity, stress management, hormone levels, medication use, the quality of the produce/meat we buy, caffeine and alcohol habits and water intake play equally as big a role.

So next time you suspect a particular food has set your gut off, it might be worth investigating some other likely culprits 🧐

While premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is common, severe or debilitating symptoms are not normal and no, hormonal contraception isn’t the only solution.

Have you heard about important female reproductive hormones like oestrogen, testosterone or progesterone? They naturally fluctuate A LOT during an average menstrual cycle and as they change, they can have flow on effects to mood, emotions, energy, digestion...

New post up on the blog!
It cover’s hormone testing and natural treatment for hormone imbalances.
