🐟 Not all fish oils are created equal!

Retail fish oil products follow standards set by the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) and allow mercury levels up to 0.1 ppm (parts per million), whereas practitioner quality fish oils are typically below 0.01 ppm due to more advanced purification.

This is particularly important for pregnancy and brain health.

The biggest difference is in manufacturing. Practitioner quality fish oils are produced in tightly controlled environments with minimal exposure to heat, light and oxygen, often using nitrogen blanketing to protect the oil from oxidative damage.

Lower cost manufacturing uses fewer of these steps, increasing the risk of oxidation. Once oxidised, fish oil shifts from anti-inflammatory to pro-oxidant and may contribute to inflammation rather than reducing it.

If you still have achy joints, high cholesterol or gut inflammation, your fish oil may need upgrading.

Pure fish oil should also be easier to digest without any fishy aftertaste or indigestion. With fish oil, you get what you pay for!

Email me if you need to upgrade your fish oil (karen.beinbalance@gmail.com)

There is new advanced test available for the GI-Map Comprehensive Stool Test!

If you want to see if your gut bacteria is in the right metabolic state I highly recommend a GI-Map test.

Our gut is our core and good health stems from here. This test shows exactly where we need to optimise your terrain. It is now available to purchase directly to see "Who's there?".

An advanced GI Map Test has also just been launched with a comprehensive addition of testing bile acids for further digestive insight to see "Who's there - and what are they producing?"

These links to purchase can be found on my website. A consultation is then scheduled for 4 weeks after you send off the completed test sample.

Please email me with any questions! karen.beinbalance@gmail.com

Just 40 lux of artificial blue light at night can suppress melatonin, a key antioxidant for cellular repair!

Artificial light at night has also been linked to insulin resistance and hormone disruption.

So keep lights low, warm and below shoulder height. Incandescent bulbs (available at Bunnings) are preferable to LEDs.

Also minimise screens before bed, or use night mode.

🌇 After sunset, your body gently shifts into repair mode.

As the light fades, your brain receives the signal that it’s time to wind down, supporting melatonin production, cellular repair, and deeper rest overnight.

Whenever you can, take a few moments to watch the sun go down.

That simple ritual helps your body recognise that night is approaching… and it’s safe to slow down.

Are you a fan of sunsets?

Healthy Chocolate Fudge! 🐰

This yummy fudge is a great alternative to Easter chocolate if you want to keep on track with healthy eating over the long weekend!

100 g dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao)
1/2 ripe avocado
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup almond butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (not essence)
1 tablespoon cacao powder
30 grams walnuts
1 1/2 tablespoons water
pinch sea salt

Chop the chocolate and walnuts. Place the chocolate in a bowl and melt in the microwave in 30-second intervals or over a double boiler. Set aside to cool.

Line a loaf pan with baking paper, leaving an overhang on both sides. Place the avocado, maple syrup, and almond butter in a food processor. Process until completely smooth, about one minute.

Add the vanilla, cocoa powder, salt, and water and pulse until incorporated. Add the melted chocolate and pulse again to combine.

Transfer the fudge to the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Top with walnuts. Place in the freezer to set for at least eight hours.

Remove the fudge and slice into squares. Keep them stored in the freezer for best results. Enjoy!

The wait is over, Naturopath rebates are returning!!

In April 2019, Naturopathy was removed from private health fund rebates, leaving many Australians without access to rebates for the care they valued and relied upon.

After years of advocacy, professional review, and legislative change, Naturopathy rebates are returning from April the 1st this year.

For many families, this will mean greater affordability and improved access to personalised support for gut health, hormones, immune function, metabolic health and overall wellbeing.

If you have extras cover that includes Naturopathy, check with your health fund to confirm your level of eligibility and when it will begin. You can then use your Naturopath consultation receipt to claim your rebate.

This is a meaningful step forward for the profession and, most importantly, for patient choice and accessibility in healthcare.
