Interesting info !

I always like to stay up-to-date on the latest on the science of food. Something came through my literature feed this morning that caught my eye. It was on "extracellular vesicles" (EVs) in broccoli, which I had not previously heard much about. This emerging science reminds us that food is more than fuel: as we say in functional medicine, it’s information. I would also say it's communication: a direct beeline from nature to our cells.

While we’re still learning how food-derived EVs work in humans, it’s another reason to choose whole, vibrant, minimally-processed foods that nourish us on every level! We may be getting more in this format than we realize...

Great info !

Exercise timing matters: morning workouts can advance the circadian phase and aid sleep in early chronotypes ("the morning lark"), while afternoon or evening exercise may better suit late chronotypes ("night owl") and enhance strength. As this review article suggests, matching exercise timing to chronotype and avoiding intense activity late at night may help maintain muscle function and circadian balance.

Menopause symptoms aren’t just about declining levels of s*x hormones such as oestrogen and progesterone. In fact imbalances in glucose and insulin play a huge role too. When blood sugar stays high, it triggers insulin resistance, fueling fatigue, weight gain, and hormone imbalances. However with dietary interventions, circadian habits, and targeted support, you can restore balance to the blood sugar regulation system.

Here our functional medicine practitioner Julie Farrelly, who specialises in hormonal imbalances and menopause explains this point.

For appointments with Julie call us on (07) 5313 3577 or visit www.lotusholisticmedicine.com.au.

Menopause is more than hot flashes and night sweats—and quick fixes don’t get to the root cause.

Surface-level solutions leave too many women still feeling drained and off balance.
That’s why my approach combines nutrition, lifestyle, supplements, and HRT to restore strength, vitality, and long-term wellness.
