Supporting your health with foods and phytonutrients, if we think of foods as chemical messengers, helping transport vital messages to our bodies so it can function optimally.
A dear friend runs a program incorporating 9 cups of veggies per day for 9 days.
As its the start of spring- what a better way to start!

I love this simple tool- after meeting Dr Terry Wahls a few years ago- she reversed her debilitating MS diagnosis by incorporating 9 cups of veggies per day. This is what I teach my clients to add in more goodness every day can have a huge impact (without removing anything) on your health. We can always start with 6 cups as lots of people think -OMG- 9 cups! It's easier than you think.

Veggies help sweep the gut with fibre, phytonutrients, water, minerals, antioxidants. However, if you are suffering from gut issues increasing your veggie intake can cause your gut some discomfort. This is why it is so important to make sure you have effective stomach acid, good bowel movements (more veggies will help with this) and chew your food to help breakdown and supply your stomach with enzymes.

I use organic vegetables to lessen the toxic load on my liver and overall system, I only grow a few vegetables at home, this is still very satisfying to head into the garden and cut some gigantic silverbeet!

Following on from my post last week, along with changes to my metabolism entering into menopause, injuries, joint issues and my thyroid (the only half I had left) giving up on me finally, I suffered with chronic fatigue- if any of you have had any major chronic health conditions or cancer you will know your mind immediately goes to - "Is it cancer again?"

After doing many tests- my functional GP recommended a Lyme Borrelia test (when they were available here in Australia- they aren't now) and it came back with an active diagnosis of Lyme Disease.
Which surprised me! It was 2021 and I had a lot of stress, along with the global stress going on at the time, moving house and businesses, navigating loss and traumas within family dynamics. I had also struggled to keep my vitamin D levels high- even with all the sun I get and taking supplements.

Living here in Perth, I had always been camping, bush walking and out in nature in general. The only time I remember have any weird type rash (from a tick I realise now) was before I had children over 24 years ago.
Another deeper dive into why this would occur so latent is with many stealth infections they hide in a biofilm, and when your immunes system is lowered enough- BAM- out come the little stealth spirochetes and start drilling into your tissues! πŸͺ±

I felt another fight of my life coming up- as I know how detrimental Lyme can be causing neurological and many other chronic ailments.
I am not going to lie- it was a scary time, I felt absolutely on death's door. I researched- and ruling out going to Mexico or the US for treatments or ordering bees to sting me ( I just couldn't do it to the bees! 🐝). I went back to my herbs. These saved me- again! There were many other therapies- infrared light every morning from my home panel, colonics, resting (not that great at- but have learnt to master it), sun, detoxing, detoxing, detoxing, lots of supplements, more changes to my diet, gentle slow exercise and movement (which was polar opposite to what I had been loving with triathlons) and healing trauma.

Life certainly hasn't let me off when it comes to having chronic health conditions, I have learnt to embrace these and heal myself with the help of some amazing friends and practitioners. I was able to heal Lyme and get back to a "menopausal" balance at the time. I believe that with the hormone decline, stress, global unrest, moving, and more emotional stress my body was in a perfect storm to reveal the underlying cause which was hiding for 24 years! This has lead me to believe that it is ALWAYS worth trusting your gut if you don't feel well - but all your bloods are "normal". πŸ₯°

Some things you may not know about me and why my love for natural medicine is a calling rather than a job πŸ₯°
I grew up in the late 60's on a property in the swan valley, so being outdoors is in my bones. I was a very active child and mum put me into dance classes to burn off some of my energy!
My passion for dance and movement became embedded and I was lucky enough to dance on stage in Perth, professionally with the Kalika Dance company, dance in India and the UK and learn multiple martial arts, then later in life participate in triathlons. My hairdressing career started in my teens and still (to this day) cut my Mums hair πŸ₯°

In the 80's with all those toxic hair chemicals, dance parties, exploring and adventuring out in the world, travelling to India to study dance, visiting family in America and then living in the UK, I decided to settle down and study Naturopathy. Settle down= meaning- performing in the dance company, studying, helping my friend open & work in a hair salon, start scuba diving as a hobby!
I eventually burnt out and was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma- BOOM- age 29.
Here was the start of my deeper dive into why this happened- and the realisation I needed to survive as I hadn't finished my story!

My love of detoxing/fasting begins- and I still actively detox/fast 2-3 times per year. As this was a key part in my recovery, it definitely helped save my life. Removed all toxic products from my home, skincare, personal care and cleaning products. Ate cleaner, organic and wholefoods.
Our bodies are a sponge, and if we fill them too much- without the ability to self squeeze- we need to give them a hand. Using easy equipment at home, along with eating well, moving, actively detoxing keeps my body from building up chemicals that are wrought in our environments today.

Hence my love of finding the root causes to your presenting concerns and foods as medicine. Some simple lifestyle factors and changes can be added or removed, movement incorporated and foods that heal rather than build up toxic effects in the body is a great first step to better health. ✨
