MENOPAUSE PAUSED! ✋️

Learn how to master menopause so suffering is optimal, not mandatory!

Some of the most common symptoms of peri & menopause include:

👉 Fatigue
👉 Hot flushes
👉 Weight gain
👉 Low libido
👉 Generalised aches & pains
👉 Brain fog
👉 Mood swings
👉 Insomnia

But did you know that there are over 100 menopausal symptoms?!

Some of the less common complaints include:
Itchy ears, burning mouth or tongue, hot feet, restless legs, vaginal dryness & atrophy (shrinkage), waking during the night, anxiety, depression, less enjoyment in life, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and heart palpitations.

There are 3 key pillars that must be addressed during peri/menopause to avoid or lessen these unpleasant symptoms.

🥦 DIET:

Ensure you eat an anti-inflammatory diet consisting of quality protein, good fats (fatty fish, avocados, olive oil, coconut oil, ghee, raw nuts & seeds), limited amounts of whole, unprocessed grains ( brown rice, quinoa, buckwheat, barley, oats) and
starchy veggies such as sweet potato, pumpkin, parsnips, and yams.
Include plenty of cruciferous & leafy green veggies.
Practice intermittent fasting with an 8 hour eating window and focus on a ketogenic diet

🧘‍♀️ LIFESTYLE:

Focus on getting adequate sunlight (especially early morning),
managing stress and lowering cortisol with meditation, breathwork or grounding in nature.
Exercise at least 5 days a week comprising of cardio & strength training.

Lose excess weight to become more metabolically healthy and release toxins that are stored in fat tissue.

Avoid toxins and chemical which are hormone disruptors.
This includes pesticides and chemicals in our food, hair & skin care products, as well as environmental toxins.

Detox yearly to improve liver function to assist with weight loss and hormone health.

Practice gratitude and connection with others which lowers cortisol & increases oxytocin ( the 'cuddle' hormone).


😴 SLEEP

Good quality sleep consisting of 7-8 hours nightly, helps with hormone and metabolic health, as well as good mood and cognition.
Supplement with magnesium (improves sleep & energy, balances blood sugars).
Passionflower, Lemon balm, Lavender, Hops, & Chamomile can all be drunk as teas or herbal tinctures.

🌼 SUPPLEMENTS CAN HELP 🌼
* B complex (improves mood and energy levels).
* Fish oils or algae oil for anti-inflammatory benefits, memory & concentration, lubricates the tissue membranes).
* Herbs that are helpful for hot flushes include; Black cohosh, Sage, Zizyphus, & Astragalus.
Prevent brain fog with Sage, Bacopa, Ginkgo, & Rosemary.
Treat fatigue with Ginseng, Licorice, & Withania.

* HRT is another safe option (yes it's been incorrectly demonised), which may include vaginal oestrogen, oral progesterone and possibly some testosterone or DHEA if needed.

DO YOU HAVE A SLUGGISH THYROID?? 🦋

The thyroid gland sits at the base of the neck and controls our temperature, weight, metabolism, energy levels, cognitive function, heart rate and blood pressure.

SYMPTOMS of low thyroid function include:
✅ Fatigue
✅ Weight gain
✅ Dry or coarse skin
✅ Constipation
✅ Depression or anxiety
✅ Migraines or headaches
✅ Muscular aches or joint pain
✅ Nerve issues/pins & needles
✅ Hair loss
✅ Cold hands & feet/low body temperature
✅ Brain fog/poor memory
✅ Swelling/oedema
✅ Infertility or other hormonal issues

Hypothyroidism is very common, especially in women over the age of 40.
Around 90% of hypothyroid cases have an autoimmune condition called Hashimotos thyroiditis where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland.

SIGNS of Hypothyroidism:

☑️ Bulging eyes (also Graves)
☑️ Puffy leyelids or below the eyes
☑️ Coarse skin on the face & body
☑️ Hyperkeratosis pilaris (chicken skin) on the back of the arms
☑️ Hair falling out or thinning
☑️ Loss of eyebrow hair on the outside
☑️ Swelling around the front of the neck
☑️ Unexplained weight gain
☑️ Pitting oedema where the skin remains depressed when you push it in (usually on the legs)

TREATMENT:

Treatment for thyroid disorders includes basic healthy dietary and lifestyle advice.

👉 Eat clean wholefoods high in nutrients.
👉 Increase lean protein and lower carbohydrates to stimulate metabolism.
👉 Strength train and exercise daily to increase lean muscle and lose weight.
👉 Manage stress to reduce cortisol levels.
👉 Get safe sun exposure or supplement with Vit D.
👉 Ensure you get quality sleep
👉 Avoid gluten (especially if you have Hashimoto's)
👉 Supplement with Vit C, Vit D, zinc, selenium, and tyrosine.
👉 Take iodine drops (potassium iodide), or use granulated kelp or iodised salt in food.
👉 Homoeopathic remedies containing thyroid gland extract may also be effective.
👉 Take thyroid medication such as Levothyroxine (synthetic) or Armour thyroid (dessicated porcine thyroid gland).
👉 Get your thyroid hormones tested (including antibodies).
👉Consult a professional to determine what treatment is most suitable for your condition as each person is uniquely different.

I provide in-clinic and telehealth consultations.

DANGERS OF GLYPHOSATE❗☠️❗

Glyphosate, commonly known as Round Up, is a herbicide used in agriculture and sprayed onto crops like corn, soy and wheat as well as other grains.
It can be found in trace amounts in cereals, bread, biscuits, cakes, crackers, and other processed foods.

Glyphosates can also migrate through the air, water and soil, contaminating nearby crops as well as end up in our waterways after heavy rain.

It is also added to animal feed so residues can be found in animal products like milk and eggs
Human breast milk has even been found to contain minute amounts of glyphosate so it is very insidious!

There are serious health concerns associated with glyphosate exposure ☠️

These include:

☠️ Endocrine disruption (especially thyroid), resulting in infertility, low libido, hair loss, autoimmune disorders, and fatigue.

☠️ Leaky gut or gut permeability where the protective lining of the gut becomes compromised. This can lead to food intolerances and digestive issues.
☠️ Low nutrient levels such as low Vit D & calcium which can result in osteoporosis and fracture risk.
☠️ Skin issues such as eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis.
☠️ Susceptibility to certain types of cancers.

AVOID conventionally grown grains and foods as much as possible to reduce your exposure to glyphosates.

✅ Grow your own organic produce if possible and share with others.
✅ Reduce the amount of grains and carbohydrates consumed to minimise exposure.
✅ Make sure you avoid the 'dirty dozen' conventionally grown foods (see previous post).

How to prevent & treat upper respiratory tract infections:

It's flu season and a lot of people are getting knocked around by RSV and other airborne viruses.
Viral infections can cause various unpleasant symptoms including sore throats, wheezing, dry coughs, chest tightness, headaches, muscle aches and sinusitis.

Often antibiotics are prescribed to treat secondary bacterial infections when phlegm turns yellow or green, and bronchitis or pneumonia can develop.

Here are some simple tips to help prevent getting sick and how to recover more quickly in case you do. 🤧

👉👉 Try these steps first to treat common viral infections before taking antibiotics which can lead to antibiotic resistance, making them less/ ineffective.

✅ Optimise your nutrition with healthy foods such as soups, casseroles and slow cooked meals favouring quality protein sources and plenty of vegetables.
Make sure you include onion, garlic, ginger and turmeric for potent antimicrobial action!
❌ Avoid refined processed foods and sugars which can 'feed' viruses and bacteria.

✅ Ensure you are getting good quality sleep to support your immune system.
Aim for 7-8 hours nightly.
Melatonin and Ashwagandha can help induce a restful sleep.

✅ Get plenty of sunlight daily to boost Vit D levels and support immunity 🌞
If you're unable to get outside daily in winter supplement with Vit D3

✅ Other supplements that are worth taking over winter include Vit C, zinc, and garlic (nature's antibiotic).
Horseradish can help with sinus infections.
Herbs such as Echinacea, Olive leaf, Lemon balm and Hypericum are all antiviral and antibacterial.
Elderberry and Licorice root help remove phlegm stuck in the sinuses and lungs.

✅ If a cough is keeping you awake at night, rub some vicks vapour rub or eucalyptus/peppermint oil on your chest to help open airways and relax tight chest muscles.

✅ If your sinuses are blocked the above remedy is also effective.
Steam inhalations using eucalyptus oils or sinus irrigations using a syringe or Neti pot can also clear blocked airways.

✅ To soothe a sore throat suck on zinc lozenges or fisherman's friends. You can also gargle with warm salty water, hydrogen peroxide or a couple of drops of iodine in warm water.


✅ Saunas and hot baths are great to raise your core body temperature which can 'burn out' those nasty bugs.
They also help reduce pain and make you sleep well 💤 😴

✅ Gentle exercise such as walking in fresh air is also encouraged to stimulate lymphatic circulation which helps boost immunity.🚶‍♀️🚶

ORGANIC v's NON ORGANIC:

Although organically grown produce contains higher nutrient content not everyone can afford to buy it.
Luckily there are some fruit and vegetables that are considered safer to eat if grown conventionally.
They generally have a thicker skin that requires peeling, or are grown below the ground.
These are called the 'Clean 15'.

Fruit and vegetables that are most heavily sprayed have a thinner skin and include leafy greens.
These are called the 'Dirty Dozen' and should be organically grown wherever possible.

The 'Dirty Dozen' is a list compiled by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), which identifies 12 fruits and vegetables with the highest pesticide residues.

These include:

Strawberries 🍓
Spinach 🥗
Kale, Collard, and Mustard Greens 🥬
Grapes 🍇
Peaches 🍑
Pears 🍐
Nectarines
Apples 🍏
Bell and Hot Peppers/Capsicums & Chillies 🫑
Cherries 🍒
Blueberries 🫐
Green Beans 🫛

The 'Clean Fifteen' list includes:

Avocados 🥑
Sweet Corn 🌽
Pineapple 🍍
Onions 🧅
Papaya
Frozen Sweet Peas 🫛
Asparagus 🎍
Honeydew Melon 🍈
Kiwifruit 🥝
Cabbage 🥬
Watermelon 🍉
Mushrooms 🍄
Mangoes 🥭
Sweet Potatoes 🍠
Carrots 🥕

So no excuses now not to eat your fruit and veg! 😊

TIPS FOR GOOD DENTAL HEALTH: 🦷🪥😁

Did you know that your mouth is directly linked to your gut via the digestive tract, and that oral health affects gut health?

Therefore taking care of your teeth and gums is important for overall immunity, as well as cardiovascular, metabolic and mental health.

➡️ Follow these simple steps to keep your pearly whites strong & sparkling 😁

❎ Avoid sugars and processed foods as much as possible as these fake foods stick to our teeth and promote plaque buildup.
This includes biscuits, crackers, crisps, lollies, most cereals, & carbonated soft drinks.
Stick to fresh, nutrient-dense whole foods.

✅ Eat plenty of fibrous foods like fruit, vegetables, raw nuts and seeds, beans & legumes to remove plaque from teeth, promote a healthy oral & gut microbiome, and ensure strong healthy teeth and gums.

✅ Acidic drinks like apple cider vinegar or lemon water should be drunk through a straw to protect your tooth enamel.

❎ Avoid fluoride (a neurotoxin in large amounts) and mouthwashes containing alcohol and colourings as these reduce nitric oxide production (important for heart health) and alter our oral & gut microbiome.
Just gargle with a couple of drops of hydrogen peroxide, peppermint or eucalyptus oil instead to remove bacteria and freshen your breath.

▶️ Take note that bad breath relates to poor oral health and can indicate cavities 😲

❎ Avoid getting root canal treatment done whenever possible as it can leave room for harmful bacteria to harbour and multiply.
You're better off getting the tooth pulled!

✅ Clean your teeth with fluoride free toothpaste and ideally one that contains hydroxyapatite which helps bone remineralise and stay strong.
Brush your tongue in the morning also to remove toxins deposited there overnight 🪥🦷

✅ Floss daily to remove food debris that can lead to plague formation.
If your gums bleed regularly with flossing try picksters instead but note that bleeding gums are a sign of gingivitis (poor gum health).
Gingivitis can be treated if caught early, but if left unchecked it can lead to periodontitis which is more severe and untreatable.

✅ Get your teeth professionally cleaned twice yearly to remove stubborn plaque and for a thorough look inside!
Ozone dental cleaning is ideal as it's safe and effective, even during pregnancy.

✅ Remove any amalgam (silver) fillings safety as over time the mercury leeches, especially with hot drinks, and can cross the blood-brain barrier! Heavy metals deposit in fat tissue!
Replace amalgam with white porcelain fillings.

❎ Avoid hydrogen peroxide teeth whitening agents in high amounts as it also alters our oral microbiome.
Instead make a paste with bicarb soda, coconut oil, and a couple of drops of peppermint oil. Rub the paste onto your teeth after cleaning a couple of times a week, leave on for 10-15 min, then rinse off. Avoid scrubbing the paste onto teeth as bicarb can be quite abrasive....
Coconut oil pulling a couple of times a week also helps keep your pearly whites white!

♀️ Hormonal shifts in women (especially pregnancy and peri/menopause) can cause changes in oral microbiome resulting in gingivitis and weak gums as collagen formation is compromised.
Lower estrogen levels impact salivary production and can lead to dehydration of the oral mucosa.
Dehydration can lead to a dry or burning mouth and gut dysbiosis.

✅ Drink plenty of fresh filtered water and add a pinch of electrolytes to replace vital minerals needed for proper hydration.
❎ Avoid alcohol, excess caffeine and spicy foods which can dehydrate you further.
If your tongue feels like it's on fire or you have a metallic taste in your mouth you may need to supplement with B vitamins and zinc....consult a naturopath 🌿

🌼 If you found this advise useful please share it with your loved ones and help keep more people smiling 😁

WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT & BURN FAT?

👉 Do you crave carbs or sugar?
👉 Do your blood sugars or energy levels fluctuate?
👉 Do you get 'hangry' if you don't eat regularly?
👉 Do you suffer from brain fog?
👉 Are you struggling to lose weight even though you've reduced your calorie intake?
👉 Do you have high blood pressure, cholesterol or blood sugars?
👉 Do you have skin tags or brown patches of skin on your body, especially around your neck or armpit areas?

If you said 'Yes' to any of these, you may have high insulin levels or insulin resistance which typically lead to type 2 diabetes (also called adult onset diabetes).

Our fasting blood sugars (HbA1c) should be below 5.5 otherwise we're more at risk of getting diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and cancer.

Losing weight will reduce insulin levels, reduce inflammation, and improve gut health.

Follow these simple tips to get metabolically healthy and to start burning fat 👇👇

✅ Increase lean protein foods such as meats, eggs, dairy foods, legumes & pulses, nuts & seeds

✅ Increase healthy fats such as cold pressed olive oil, coconut oil, walnut oil, sesame oil & avocados.
Avoid polyunsaturated vegetable oils such as sunflower, safflower, canola, & grapeseed oils which are all highly processed, oxidised and inflammatory!

✅ Avoid environmental toxins as these get stored in our fat cells hindering their ability to work properly.
This includes plastics (water bottles, food containers, inside canned foods, & chopping boards)
Avoid chemicals in your home & work place such as cleaning products, perfumes & fragrances, and toxic skincare & haircare products.

✅ Improve liver health with bitter foods like rocket, endive, artichokes, leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables, lemons & limes, apple cider vinegar.

There's a LOT of supplements on the market these days making it confusing trying to figure out which ones are best to take.

Here are my top 5 nutrients that I recommend taking daily for optimal health, to balance hormones,, reduce inflammation, improve energy levels, and to support immunity.

1. Magnesium - is necessary for over 300 enzymatic reactions, including energy production, muscle relaxation, sleep and nervous system support, as well as reducing headaches, blood pressure and heart arrhythmias.
Magnesium glycinate/diclycinate are my preferred forms as they are better absorbed by the body and don't upset the gut.

2. Vit C - humans are the only mammals that don't manufacture Vit C so we need to consume it daily.
Vit C is a master antioxidant, improves immunity, reduces inflammation, and boosts energy levels.
It is also antihistamine so helps to reduce allergies as well as preventing cancer.
The best form to take is liposomal Vit C which gets into our cells more easily.

3. Vit D3 - is important for immunity, bone and muscle health, hormone balance, reducing inflammation, and cancer prevention.
Blood levels should be about 75-100 nmol/L depending on the time of year.
If you have a deficiency, supplementation is important.

4. B Vitamins - I suggest taking a B complex so all the B vitamins are included.
Another important nutrient for energy production, stress and nervous system support, heart and arterial health, and reducing inflammation.

5. Glutathione - is a powerful antioxidant and detoxifier. It supports liver and heart health, helps prevent cancer and chronic diseases, and lowers inflammation.
You can take a powdered supplement (like the BioCeuticals one) otherwise cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, kale, and cabbage contain compounds that support glutathione production 😋

Source your supplements from reliable companies that have high quality products and have done their research and testing! Otherwise consult a naturopath for advice. 🌿

10 tips to help you sleep well 💤💤

Poor sleep not only makes you feel tired and gives you brain fog, it also contributes to weight gain, hormone imbalances, and suppressed immunity.

Follow these helpful hints to ensure a good night's sleep 👇👇

1. No caffeine after noon - especially if you're sensitive to it, as it takes 5-6 hrs to metabolise.

2. Eat dinner no later than 3 hours before bed.
Your body needs to drop into sleep, not spend energy on digestion!
This will also help if you suffer from reflux or are a snorer.

3. Make sure your room is cool as the body prefers a lower temperature to help us fall asleep

4. Make sure your room is dark as this helps with melatonin production which promotes sleep.
If you don't have curtains to darken your room, wear a sleep mask

5. If you're sensitive to outside noise or sleep next to a snorer wear ear plugs!

6. Have an Epson salts bath or hot shower before bed to make you sleep like a baby.

7. Don't watch TV in bed or use electronic devices as the blue light blocks melatonin production and interferes with sleep.
Read a book or listen to an audio book or relaxing music instead.

8. Don't drink alcohol at night thinking this will help with sleep!
Alcohol is a sedative so will relax you, helping you to fall asleep, but it blocks deep sleep and makes you wake often as the liver has to metabolise the alcohol.

9. Some natural sleep aids include
Melatonin, lavender oil, ashwagandha, passionflower, lemon balm, hops, and valerian.

10. If you've got an overactive mind and mentally make lists or have too many things on
your mind, keep a journal or note pad next to your bed and jot them down to clear your head.

✋✋10 foods you should AVOID ✋✋

These foods are called 'Frankenfoods' as they are highly processed & altered that they hardly resemble real foods.
Replace with whole foods as healthy alternatives, like nature provides. 🌿

❎ Diet sodas - loaded with artificial sweeteners which destroy our gut microbiome, spike insulin levels, and disrupt brain chemistry.
Aspartame & sucralose are known carcinogens linked to brain cancer, leukaemia and lymphoma.

❎ Microwave popcorn in popping bags - the bags are lined with 'forever chemicals' which suppress our immune systems, promote inflammation, and are linked to certain cancers.
Simply replace with organic popcorn that you can pop in a glass bowl or stainless steel saucepan to pop.

❎ Processed meats - including bacon, hot dogs, and deli meats. The preservative used on these meats (nitrates) also known carcinogens associated with stomach, pancreatic and colorectal cancers.
Look for grass fed or organic meats straight off the bone instead.

❎ Packaged cakes, biscuits, doughnuts, muffins, biscuits, and crisps.
These are cooked in seed oils and transfats, making them highly inflammatory and cancer causing.
Make your own baked goods with organic coconut oil, butter, or ghee

❎ Fruit juices - when fruit is juiced the fiber is removed making them very high in sugars.
A high fructose diet increases the risk of cancer, fatty liver disease, and inflammatory conditions
Replace with whole fruit, preferably lower sugar varieties such as berries and green apples.

❎ Processed cereals - most cereals are loaded with glyphosates (w**d killers) which are poisonous to not only w**ds, but also to our cells!
They deplete minerals from our bodies, spike bood sugars, and cause inflammation.
The worst offenders are Special K (not so special!) and Cheerios...cheerio you two!
Replace with organic rolled oats, natural muesli or a protein rich brekkie instead.

❎ Gatorade and coloured sports drinks - these drinks are high in salt and sugar, as well as artificial colours and dyes which are carcinogenic if consumed regularly.
Drink water with a pinch of pink salt in it to replace electrolytes as a healthy alternative.

❎ Tinned soups and frozen dinners - these are high in sodium and preservatives which promote inflammation and alters our gut microbiome.
Canned foods are lined with BPA, a hormone-disrupting chemical that can cause cancer.

❎ French fries - these tasty morsels are cooked in vegetable oils and transfats that are reheated multiple times so that they become rancid, oxidised, and highly inflammatory.

❎ Ultra processed snacks - including candy bars, muesli bars, and pop tarts contain refined flours, sugars and transfats which can all cause hormone imbalances and inflammation.
Replace with real 'whole' foods.

🌿10 Powerful foods to heal fatty liver and support detoxification 🌿

A fatty liver from excess alcohol, pharmaceutical drugs or overconsumption of processed carbohydrates can be reversed.

Include as many of these foods below to help repair and regenerate your liver, support your detox, boost bile production, break down fat cells, and improve insulin sensitivity to assist with weight loss.

1. Rocket - rich in chlorophyll for detoxification, protects liver cells, and reduces oxidative stress 🌿

2. Coffee - now I've got your attention!!
Organic medium roasted coffee beans only! Coffee reduces elevated liver enzymes, improves insulin sensitivity, lowers bad cholesterol, and reduces liver cancer risk.
Great news for those coffee drinkers! ☕

3. Lemons & limes - both high in Vit C which boosts glutathione production (antioxidant), flavonoids reduce liver inflammation and improves liver enzymes, and increases bile flow 🍋

4. Broccoli or broccoli sprouts - both high in sulphur compounds which boost liver detoxification, enhance bile production, and lower liver fat and inflammation 🥦

5. Ginger - is anti-inflammatory, enhances bile secretion, and reduces liver fat.
Add to food or drink fresh ginger root tea 🫚

6. Milk thistle or Silymarin - regenerates liver cells, reduces liver fat, and supports healthy liver enzymes 🌿

7. Egg yolk &/or beef liver are both high in choline which transports fats out of the liver and supports detoxification 🥚🍖

8. Dandelion root - another great herb for bile production and flow, improving healthy liver enzymes, reducing liver fat, and detoxification.
Drink dandelion tea as a healthy beverage ☕

9. Garlic - high in sulphur also which supports detoxification, regulates blood sugars, reduces liver fat, and keeps arteries healthy.
Eat 1-2 cloves daily or take an aged garlic supplement 🧄🧄

10. Green tea - high in antioxidants, reduces fat accumulation in the liver, and lowers elevated liver enzymes. Drink 2-3 cups daily 🍵

27/05/2025

Are you feeling inflamed or do you experience joint pain, gout, high cholesterol, or struggling to lose weight?

One of the reasons may be that you're consuming too many nasty seed or vegetable oils that are found in potato crisps, crackers, fried foods, baked goods, and all 'junk' foods.

These oils are highly processed and oxidised as heat is used to extract the oil, making these oils highly inflammatory in our bodies.

Watch a YouTube video on how Canola oil is made and you'll get my point!

Here's a list of the Bad oils and the Healthy options below 👇👇

AVOID:
❌ Canola oil
❌ Corn oil
❌ Rapeseed oil
❌ Grapeseed oil
❌ Sunflower oil
❌ Safflower oil
❌ Rice bran oil (organic ok)
❌ Soybean oil
❌ Cottonseed oil
❌ Palm oil

REPLACE WITH:
✅ Cold pressed extra virgin Olive oil
✅ Organic Coconut oil
✅ Walnut oil (don't heat)
✅ Avocado oil (don't heat)
✅ Organic macadamia oil (low heat)
✅ Organic peanut oil (if not allergic)
✅ Organic Butter
✅ Tallow (beef or lamb)
✅ Ghee
