What do liquid herbs taste like? I'm always up front with my clients: they taste like dirt 🤣
BUT... they are so effective that it's worth it, I promise!

The great thing about liquid herbs is the ability to tailor the blend to exactly what you need; tablet formulas may contain herbs you don't tolerate or that may interact with your prescription meds. We can avoid this with custom herbal liquid blends. They're also well absorbed and work fast ✨️

To make the process easier, ensure you top your measuring cup with water and shot it back - don't prolong the process by pouring it into a glass of water to sip. Rinsing your mouth with water after is also highly recommended.
Chilling the herbs can also take the edge off the strong taste 🫶

Feat. a blend that's been phenomenal in bringing all markers of metabolic dysfunction down within 3 months🥹

A few tips and tricks to improve your va**nal health ✨️
Bottom line: don't be fooled by all the shiny intimate wash products you see at the supermarket; your va**na is a low-maintenance gal, she only needs water 💅

And if you're experiencing chronic symptoms, it's time to dig deeper and investigate with testing 🧐❤️

Magnesium, the Queen 👸
She's definitely my most prescribed mineral, and for so many reasons! It hits the mark when it comes to stress, sleep, mood, muscles and cognitive function.

Highly stressed? You'll lose extra magnesium because of it. And if you're not focussing on a magnesium-rich diet, you're on your way to a serious magnesium deficit.

Some forms are more appropriate in certain situations but my fave is definitely glycinate. I'm seeing a lot of clients coming to me with their current magnesium forms containing magnesium oxide - please avoid this form as it's poorly absorbed and functions mostly as a laxative!

And of course, food should come first, so load up on nuts, seeds, leafy greens, wholegrain, legumes and dark chocolate for your magnesium fix (you're welcome 🍫) ❤️

The blueprint for a gut-loving breakfast 🤸‍♀️

We know the gut thrives on a variety of prebiotics rather than one single fibre type. Different fibres feed different microbes, and some microbes even feed off the byproducts produced by other gut microbes when they digest fibre! 🤯

Each fibre type has a different beneficial effect on our digestion. Think of it like watering only one plant in the garden; only that one plant will grow! 🪴

So when you're building your breakfast, use the below guide to ensure variety:

🌼Base (e.g., oats, millet)

🌼Fibre/prebiotics (e.g., seeds, nuts, fruit)

🌼Polyphenols (cacao nibs, berries, spices, citrus zest)

🌼Fats (nut butter, seeds, yoghurt)

Feat. the porridge that had my gut rejoicing 😍

Remember folks, healing isn't linear ❤️
I'm not perfect when it comes to my health and I certainly don't expect my clients to be 🥹

Prioritise rest, the joy of food and showing up for yourself, no matter how imperfectly. The 80/20 rule really is golden 💫

Some of you may already know but for those who don't, I'm excited to announce I'll be practising at Mead Medical Kalamunda every Tuesday morning! I'll be joining other amazing allied health professionals (full line up yet to be confirmed!) 💫

The team at Mead are amazing and there are so many fabulous GPs there that I often refer my clients to, and we know we have better health outcomes if we have a solid relationship with our GP!

Bookings for Mead can be taken through their website or mine (link provided on my booking page). All other times will be at my clinic as per normal! ❤️

4 types, 4 different treatment possibilities🌼

If you have PCOS, it's crucial to know which type as it will determine how we treat it! I haven't listed exhaustive treatment options for each type but merely want to highlight how each type differs and the importance of the correct testing and diagnosis. I'll be doing a post on the tests to request if you suspect you have PCOS, as testing really does lay the foundation for optimal patient outcomes.

And you can have more than one type, requiring multi-faceted treatment. So test, don't guess❤️
