🍭 Sugar Awareness Week: Small Changes, Big Impact!

Did you know that even “hidden” sugars in sauces, breads, and drinks can add up fast? This week is all about becoming aware of how much sugar we consume—and discovering simple swaps that support steady energy, mood, and overall health.

✨ Tips to try this week:

✅Swap sugary drinks for sparkling water with a splash of citrus.

✅Check labels for hidden sugars in everyday foods.

✅Try naturally sweet snacks like berries or dates.

✅Focus on balanced meals with protein, healthy fats, and fibre to keep sugar cravings in check.

Awareness is the first step. Small changes can make a big difference for your energy, mood, and long-term health! 🌿

🍬 Sugar Awareness Week 2025: Let’s Talk About Hidden Sugars

Did you know that the average person consumes more than double the recommended amount of sugar each day — often without realising it?
Hidden sugars sneak into foods like sauces, cereals, yoghurts, and even “healthy” snack bars, contributing to blood sugar imbalance, inflammation, and insulin resistance over time.

From a naturopathic perspective, type 2 diabetes is often preventable and reversible through the right food and lifestyle choices.
It’s about nourishing your body, not restricting it.
✨ Focus on:
✅ Whole, unprocessed foods
✅ Plenty of non-starchy vegetables
✅ Protein and healthy fats at each meal
✅ Reducing stress and improving sleep (both affect blood sugar balance!)

Small changes made consistently can have a powerful impact on your long-term health.
This week, take a moment to check your labels — and choose foods that truly support your energy and wellbeing. 🌿

At Magnolia Apothecary, we focus on supporting metabolic health naturally — helping you understand your body’s signals and creating habits that protect against blood sugar imbalance.

Prevention begins with awareness — and small, consistent changes make all the difference. 🌿

🌿 Cholesterol Awareness Week🌿

Cholesterol isn’t just a number — it’s a signal from your body. After menopause, many women notice changes in their cholesterol, even if their diet and lifestyle haven’t changed.

This is partly due to hormonal shifts that affect PEMT, a liver pathway responsible for making choline — a nutrient vital for healthy lipid metabolism and cardiovascular function. When PEMT isn’t working optimally, your liver may struggle to process cholesterol efficiently, leading to higher cholesterol and elevated homocysteine levels.

Supporting your body with the right nutrients, including choline, alongside lifestyle strategies, can help manage cholesterol naturally and protect heart health after menopause.

💡 Curious about how PEMT, choline, and homocysteine interact — and what you can do about it? Read my latest blog for a naturopathic guide to post-menopausal cholesterol health.

💛 Dementia Awareness 2025 – You Cannot Do It Alone 💛

Dementia is something that has touched my life personally, and it’s a journey that no one should face alone. Behind every diagnosis are families, friends, and carers who need support just as much as the person living withDementia is something that has touched my life personally, and it’s a journey that no one should face alone. Behind every diagnosis are families, friends, and carers who need support just as much as the person living with dementia.
