A small weekend pause - a moment to breathe before the new cycle begins. 💫

Consultations resume next week, refreshed and focused - with new updates, new developments, and exciting plans as we head into the new year.

Every practitioner starts somewhere - start strong. 💪
I often get asked what books to start with if you’re beginning your journey in medicine, biomedicine, nutrition, or herbal/functional medicine.
No matter which route you take, everything comes back to biomedicine - your anatomy, physiology, and understanding of pathology.
My top two foundations:
• Ross & Wilson Anatomy and Physiology
• Gould’s Pathophysiology for Health Professionals
Updated editions are best. Start here, pair them with your lectures, and you’ll build a strong clinical base. 📚🌿👩🏻⚕️

Questions I get asked the most - so let’s set the record straight. ✨❔
These are questions I’m asked often - not just about my work, but about who I am.
On a personal, business, and individual level - including my role as a Functional Medicine Practitioner and Medical Herbalist - one principle stays the same: responsibility.
I believe in facts, not filters.
Results, not repetition.
Functional Medicine is about getting to the root cause, not masking symptoms.
Herbal Medicine is about applying clinical knowledge with integrity.
In both life and practice, I stand for accountability, transparency, and genuine care - no shortcuts, no pretence.
That’s By Firdous® Health - where purpose meets precision.👩🏻⚕️✨

May humanity win, always. 🕊️🇵🇸
Busy day at my desk… yet my heart pauses at the news of a ceasefire in Gaza.
I pray it marks a new dawn of hope 🌿
May both Muslim and non-Muslim nations stand together for its healing, growth, and peace.
I’m also deeply sorry for the loss and pain within our Jewish community. Like every community, there are both good and bad, but grief and humanity are universal.
The community near the synagogue - along Leicester Road and the surrounding area - is one I know well and pass often on my visits to Manchester, so this hits close to home.
I truly hope this ceasefire brings peace, healing, and dignity for everyone. 🤍

Let’s Clear Up the Calcium + Iron Confusion👩🏻⚕️
In an earlier post, I mentioned that calcium interferes with iron absorption - and I’ve had a few questions come in, especially about supplements that contain a small amount of calcium alongside iron. Let’s break this down a bit further.
Yes, it’s true that calcium and iron compete for absorption in the gut. But this effect is dose-dependent. Most studies suggest that it takes 300mg or more of calcium at the same time as iron to significantly interfere.
So what about supplements that include a tiny amount of calcium - like calcium citrate at 10–20mg per capsule?
Here’s the deal:
→ Small amounts like this are added to help stabilise the formula and balance pH - not to act as a nutrient.
→ These amounts are far too low to block iron absorption and are considered safe to take with iron.
For context:
• A 250ml cup of milk contains roughly 300mg of calcium.
• A standard calcium supplement contains around 500mg or more.
• Your iron supplement with 13mg of calcium citrate? Nowhere near interfering.
And what about tea?
Another good question - tea contains tannins, which can bind to iron and reduce its absorption. If you add milk to your tea, you’re also introducing a little calcium. But again, this depends on:
• How much milk you’re using
• How soon after iron you’re having it
• Whether you’re in a phase of active deficiency or maintenance
If you’re severely iron deficient, even small things like tea with a dash of milk soon after your iron dose could have a minor effect. And if you’re trying to correct deficiency fast, it’s best to avoid all potential blockers.
But if you’re already in a rebuilding or maintenance phase, the odd cup of tea with a splash of milk an hour after your iron? Probably fine.
Bottom line:
Sometimes it’s not that the iron supplement isn’t working - it’s what’s happening around it that’s affecting how well it absorbs.
