October- ADHD Awareness month. ADHD in adult women tends to show up most vividly in real-world roles like family life, relationships, and work. How ADHD can manifest?

👧 In Family and Home Life
Adult women with ADHD often describe feeling like they’re “always behind” or “never caught up.”
Common challenges
* Disorganisation at home: Clutter, unfinished chores, lost items, forgotten appointments.
* Time blindness: Underestimating how long things take; running late for school drop-offs, meals, or errands.
* Overwhelm with daily routines: Managing multiple moving parts (kids, meals, laundry, finances) can feel impossible to juggle.
* Inconsistent routines: Difficulty sticking to meal plans, cleaning schedules, or bedtime routines.
* Emotional exhaustion: Feeling guilty or ashamed for not being the “organized mom/partner.”
Emotional impact
* Feeling like “everyone else can manage” when she can’t.
* Masking difficulties by overcompensating- working longer, skipping rest, or micromanaging details.
* High risk of burnout, especially for mothers juggling home, caregiving, and work.

💓 In Romantic and Social Relationships
Common patterns
* Forgetfulness or distraction can look like not caring — missing birthdays, zoning out in conversations, or forgetting promises.
* Emotional intensity: Big reactions, rapid mood changes, or feeling hurt easily (often linked to rejection sensitivity dysphoria).
* Impulsivity: Blurting things out, interrupting, or making big decisions in the moment (moving, quitting jobs, etc.).
* Difficulty managing conflict: Arguments can escalate quickly due to impulsive responses or difficulty regulating emotions.
* Uneven division of chores: Partners may perceive her as “unreliable” or “disorganised,” leading to tension.
But also...
* ADHD women can be highly empathetic, spontaneous, and creative in relationships.
* They often bring energy, humor, and warmth, but need partners who understand ADHD is neurological, not laziness or carelessness.

As a NT I utilise neurotransmitters and DNA 🧬 tests, which offer insights into how person’s body processes nutrients and help personalise symptoms management strategies.

Yesterday was a Mental Health Awareness Day so let’s talk about genes 🧬

Genes play central roles in mood regulation, stress response, inflammation, and neuroplasticity. Below is a breakdown of the likely symptoms or tendencies associated with upregulation (increased activity/expression) or downregulation (decreased activity/expression) of each gene.

Knowing how your genes are expressing is essential as 🧬 can be supported with nutrients, herbs, vitamins, minerals. 😉

Part of my job as a Clinical Educator is attending various conferences and this a short summary of the metabolic conference organised by the I attended last month. Many inspiring and knowledgeable speakers and I finally managed to meet .carriejones face to face (and yes I am a ginger midget next to her). If you’re interested in hormone health follow her podcast. There were just so many tips, but I can say one- never skip a leg day 🏋🏼‍♀️
and reminded us to have fun, find way to destress, and covered how our bodies change when we go through a hormonal shift.

Happy Friday! 😇

I attended the Metabolic Conference last week in London. Many inspiring speakers and I will share the main points.

Did you know that a normal blood sugar level is 1 teaspoon of glucose in the entire 5 litres of blood 🩸 in the adult body?

Dr David Unwin shared many infographics which I have been using in practice for years to make patients aware of how much hidden sugar in various foods.

You can access the infographics here:

https://phcuk.org/sugar/

Do you experience any of those symptoms?

🫥 Hypoglycaemia (Low Blood Sugar)
Typically defined as blood glucose < 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L)

Early Symptoms:

Shakiness or tremors
Sweating
Hunger
Dizziness or lightheadedness
Palpitations or rapid heartbeat
Irritability or mood changes
Anxiety
Pale skin
Weakness or fatigue

Later Symptoms (if untreated):
Blurred vision
Confusion or difficulty concentrating
Slurred speech
Clumsiness or lack of coordination
Seizures
Loss of consciousness

🫥Hyperglycaemia (High Blood Sugar)
Often defined as fasting blood glucose > 130 mg/dL (7.2 mmol/L) or post-meal > 180 mg/dL (10 mmol/L)

Symptoms:

Increased thirst (polydipsia)
Frequent urination (polyuria)
Dry mouth
Fatigue
Blurred vision
Headache
Nausea or vomiting
Fruity-smelling breath (in diabetic ketoacidosis)
Shortness of breath (in severe cases)
Confusion or drowsiness (in extreme cases like diabetic hyperosmolar syndrome)

The great thing is that you can stabilise blood sugar balance with lifestyle medicine 😌 start with a simple walk after a meal, it doesn’t cost anything!

Let’s talk about the benefits of consuming bone marrow (if you wonder what’s on my duck eggs today):

🔬 Nutritional Profile
Bone marrow contains:
Healthy fats (including monounsaturated fats)
Collagen
Glycine and other amino acids
Vitamins (especially vitamin A and K2)
Minerals like iron, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, and zinc.

🧠 1. Supports Brain Health
Bone marrow contains:

Myelin-forming fats, which help insulate nerve cells
Omega-3 fatty acids, linked to improved cognitive function and reduced inflammation.

💪 2. Joint and Bone Health
Rich in collagen and gelatin, which support joint flexibility and reduce joint pain
Contains glucosamine and chondroitin, natural compounds often used to treat arthritis.

🩸 3. Supports Blood Cell Production
Bone marrow is the body’s natural site of blood cell production. When consumed, it provides:

Iron and vitamin B12, both critical for red blood cell formation.

🛡️ 4. Boosts Immunity
The fatty acids and micronutrients (like zinc and vitamin A) found in marrow help:

Strengthen the immune response
Promote gut health, which is tightly linked to immune function.

❤️ 5. Good Source of Healthy Fats
Bone marrow contains monounsaturated fats, which:

Support heart health
Help with hormone production
Keep you feeling full longer

🥣 Best Ways to Consume It
Bone broth (slow-cooked bones)
Roasted bone marrow (on a steak is delicious)
Added to soups or stews for flavour and nutrition.
I buy the already prepared bone marrow with spices from the farm shop nearby.

⚠️ Things to Keep in Mind
Source matters: Choose grass-fed, organic bones when possible to avoid toxins.

It’s been a while since I had an omelette. I discovered a new cheddar cheese with rosemary and black pepper and it was a delicious addition to the omelette! A very fulfilling breakfast that keeps you satisfied until lunch ☺️
3 eggs 🥚
25g cheddar cheese 🧀 grated
50ml milk (I use raw from a farm milk as it’s the only one I don’t react to)
50g grated courgette
Pinch of salt & pepper
1 tbsp butter (or less)

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, fry on butter (I used a black garlic butter… yes you guess from a farm, I absolutely love it!).

Add asparagus or other veggies of your choice.

My new post-workout addiction!

👉🏼Beef protein isolate gives you a complete amino acid profile, including some glycine, but adding extra glycine is fine and often beneficial.

👉🏼Glycine is an amino acid involved in collagen production, muscle repair, and it can help lower inflammation and improve sleep quality — all useful for recovery.

👉🏼Creatine helps with energy production and muscle strength. It’s commonly taken post-workout and stacks well with protein and amino acids.

All supplements from

If I find something worth sharing I always do (well I can’t take credit for it as my partner told me about this brand and oh god it’s delicious 🤤 ).
Add some berries and I mixed it with water and raw milk. Mouth-watering 😍

Fluctuating energy levels, tiredness, and struggling to build muscles mass? 😴

I notice in my clinic women don’t eat enough protein and rely on things to snack on (or finish meals after their kids).

Women should consume 25–40 grams of high-quality protein after strength training to support muscle maintenance and recovery 💪🏼 🏋🏼‍♀️. Women have different protein metabolism needs than men and aiming for higher leucine-rich protein intake to optimise muscle protein synthesis.

Key Recommendations:
* Protein Timing: Within 30–45 minutes post-workout for best recovery.
* Daily Protein Intake: At least 1.6–2.2 g/kg of body weight per day for active women.
* Protein Quality: Prioritise leucine-rich sources (e.g., whey, eggs, lean meats, soy, or pea protein).

Quick & Easy Protein Options
1. Protein Smoothie
* 1 scoop whey or plant-based protein (20–25g protein)
* 1 cup Greek yogurt (15g protein)
* 1/2 banana, 1 tbsp nut butter, water/milk
2. Cottage Cheese & Berries
* 1 cup cottage cheese (28g protein)
* 1/2 cup blueberries
* 1 tbsp flaxseeds for omega-3s
3. Egg & Avocado Toast
* 2 boiled or scrambled eggs (14g protein)
* 1 slice whole grain bread
* 1/4 avocado + hot sauce
4. Greek Yogurt & Nuts
* 1 cup Greek yogurt (20g protein)
* 1 tbsp h**p seeds (3g protein)
* 1 tsp honey & cinnamon

Bigger Meals for More Protein
1. Grilled Chicken & Quinoa Bowl
* 4 oz grilled chicken (35g protein)
* 1/2 cup quinoa (4g protein)
* Mixed greens, olive oil, lemon
2. Salmon & Sweet Potato
* 4 oz salmon (30g protein)
* 1 small sweet potato
* Steamed broccoli & tahini dressing
3. Tofu Stir-Fry with Rice (Vegan)
* 1/2 block firm tofu (20g protein)
* 1 cup brown rice (5g protein)
* Stir-fried veggies + soy sauce
