🔎 🌱 Ingredient spotlight:
Kava (Piper methysticum) has been used for centuries in South Pacific Islander cultures as a ceremonial and medicinal root, traditionally prepared in water to support relaxation, muscle ease, and emotional calm. Its role was never about numbing — but about fostering balance, connection, and nervous system settling.
Modern clinical research now builds on this traditional knowledge, showing that well-prepared kava extracts can support anxiety and stress regulation through clearly defined neurobiological pathways. When quality, preparation, and professional guidance are respected, kava represents a compelling example of traditional medicine meeting contemporary science 🌿

🔎 As GLP-1 medications gain popularity in Australia, integrative and complementary health practitioners are uniquely positioned to support patients navigating their metabolic journey. These drugs offer significant therapeutic potential – but without personalised guidance, they can come with nutritional, gastrointestinal, and behavioural challenges that compromise long-term outcomes. Understanding the mechanisms, side effects, and opportunities for synergy with lifestyle and functional support is critical.
From maintaining protein intake and muscle mass to leveraging the power of bitter botanicals and microbiome modulation, there are many ways practitioners can enhance GLP-1 efficacy while protecting patient health. This isn’t just about weight loss – it’s about restoring metabolic integrity and sustaining it well beyond the prescription. Swipe through for evidence-based strategies from Dietician and Ecercise Physiologist Robbie Clark, to support your patients with confidence and care!

💜 We’re proud to sponsor Re:Formulate 2026! — the first multidisciplinary, holistic health conference uniting our profession to reimagine patient care and build sustainable practices.

⭐️ “We operate in a community, where practitioners need to lean on other modalities to improve their reach across the community. Exploring how to build your referral effect with being evidence led, is the cornerstone of long-term value for all practitioners.
I’m really looking forward to the session on shared care, as it shows how building the right referral networks keeps practitioners at the centre of patient care. Learning how to confidently communicate our value and work within structured referral models is vital for strengthening trust, collaboration, and long-term patient outcomes.
For us, being part of Re:Formulate is about more than sponsorship, it’s about strengthening our community, encouraging innovation, and keeping science at the centre of natural medicine.”

Lea McIntyre, Managing Director, Designs for Health
.
On the day, Designs for Health will unveil our latest product innovations, functional testing and research, but more than that, you’ll meet a team deeply embedded in the practitioner community, with over half of us being Australian practicing clinicians.

Supplement timing doesn’t need to be complicated, but it shouldn’t be random either.

Factors like nutrient solubility, food interactions, and individual tolerance can all influence how a supplement is best taken. This quick reference highlights general timing principles used in clinical practice.
