We can learn so much about health & wellbeing from our pets 🐾

1. Keep well hydrated
2. Know your nutrient levels and supplement when needed
3. Quality sleep is essential - nobody does well without it.

🫢 Are you overlooking this important part of your digestive system?

Poor oral health can contribute to: gut issues, cardiometabolic disease, cognitive decline, sleep disorders and sub-fertility. It really is worth assessing the health of your mouth.

Get in touch if you would like some help. Sonia 🍏

⭐️ Ready to optimise your health in 2026?

Start with a really good work up of bloods.

You also need to see a practitioner who works with optimal ranges. Often very different to references ranges on pathology results. You are looking for optimal levels not 'ok' levels.

📮 Send me a DM if you would like more information.

Quality sleep is imperative - without it, mood & cognition doesn't stand a chance!

A FEW TIPS:
⭐️ Create a consistent sleep routine — go to bed and wake up at the same time each day.
⭐️ Limit screens and bright light at night — reduce blue light exposure 1–2 hours before bed.
⭐️ Choose a sleep-supportive evening meal — include protein, fibre and calming nutrients (like magnesium-rich leafy greens) and avoid heavy, high-sugar or very late meals to support stable blood sugar and better sleep quality.
⭐️ Support relaxation — deep breathing, stretching, Sleepy time herbal tea, or a warm Epsom salt bath.
⭐️ Magnesium Glycinate can be helpful to calm the nervous system.

AND I know there will be people that do all of that and still can't sleep. Come and see me so we can dig a bit deeper.

Does your child struggle to concentrate?

There are some basic nutrients that can have a HUGE impact on cognition, energy & mood. Iron is at the top my list.

🥩 WHAT DOES IRON DO?
• Supports brain development – iron helps build the pathways needed for learning and memory
• Boosts concentration – adequate iron improves focus and attention
• Helps carry oxygen to the brain – more oxygen means better energy and mental clarity
• Reduces fatigue – prevents tiredness that can make it harder for Children to think and stay engaged

NOTE: PLEASE don't run out and start supplementing your child with iron (apart from food sources) unsupervised. Iron overload can also cause issues. Send me a DM or give me a call. There is so much we can do. 😊
