Supporting Family Health and Wellbeing Through Integrative Nutrition Homeopathy & Functional Testing

Sending out Gratitude this morning to all those who have sent me messages of appreciation.

Running your own business can be very challenging. Especially in the "health and wellness" sector where there is so much misinformation.

Yesterday I spotted extremely low Vitamin B12 levels on a beautiful lady's blood results - bloods she had taken privately at enormous expense.

The "within range" levels were so low I had to pinch myself to check I was reading them correctly.

Luckily I also had her hair test, which confirmed - her Vitamin B12 levels were one third of what is a good level.

Those bloods were checked by a GP. And despite indications that B12 was low, liver needed support, blood clotting had increased - she was told -

"Your Bloods are Fine - we'll put you on a statin"

Thankfully there are other ways to support our body's and take steps to nourish ourselves.

I'm genuinly appreciative for all the people, colleagues and colleges that have helped me on my journey 🙌

And appreciate all the conversations and feedback I receive. It makes every day worth showing up 🙂

❤️

Looking at one high or low result on a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis test means absolutely Nothing, unless you look at the entire picture.

It's a bit like being at a party and going into the corner to dance on your own - you miss the entire social interaction.

Are you shifting this Aluminium out
What are your stress levels like
Where is the stress showing up
Is it your digestion
Memory
Energy that is being affected?

A WHOLEistic approach is about considering the entire person - not just one imbalance.

My little Black Book looks a little different to other books....

This is where I put my clients research information when a person has a complex history or pathology.

Yes, I use my computer and store various research papers and links. But I always love going back to my notes.

I feel there's a different energy when I use pen and paper and give time to each client. Sometimes the dots are easier to join on paper than using a computer 🖥-

Plus I can sit nearer to the 🌞

Food is Medicine for a Happy Gut!

Bloating after meals, belching, constipation, feeling windy, or crampy when eating is a sign your digestive system needs a little extra love.

Eliminating certain trigger foods is one way to deal with this.

But....what do you do if you've eliminated lots of foods but still experience the same discomfort?
And there are only 5 to 10 foods you can eat with out feeling 💩

That's where testing can help

What is your system dealing with -
👉 are there worms in your system
👉 some bacteria
👉 yeast
👉 Candida
Or something else?

I'm currently using a gastro intestinal test to help you find the right way to heal your digestive health, and reduce the bloat, pain, or sensitivity to foods.

Most medications come with side effects.

Knowing how a drug works and how they change the vitamin and mineral use in our body is important.

Anxiety with long term use of the oral contraceptive pill is "normal". Contraceptives reduce B vitamins in the body which leads to anxiety, low mood, fatigue.

Calcichew, used in osteopenia and Osteoporosis, has been found to cause arteries to be more rigid leading to atherosclerosis - hardening of the arteries. Calcichew makes bones more rigid too, making them easier to break as bones should be flexible in case we fall.

Information and understanding what medications do, and how they help us is important. It's also important to know the side effects, and what steps we can take to help our own body.

Using a Hair sample to check minerals vitamins and organ health is a great way to check how your body is coping, and make steps towards future proofing your health.

We used to have lots of little finches - then the cats came along and frightened them away

We had lots of starlings. Then pigeons moved in and starlings moves out.

Robbie Robin has been here since we moved in.

Have you been told "it's a natural regression" at 3/ 4 / 6 months?

Have you been told everything is completely safe?

I thought that too. Until I dived right in and learned more about this subject.

I wrote some years ago in favour of genetic testing for each baby prior to getting their jobs** to check if their little delicate underdeveloped systems could handle the additional ingredients.

I won't go into the responses I got. But needless to say I'm delighted to see more research and questions and information being published about this topic.

There's no evil
There's no anti
There's no right or wrong
There's just good questions

Choice is everyone's to make. I'm not here to sway a decision.

But informed consent is important.

If you are questioning whether to shot or not I offer unbiased information sessions to provide you with some information to make your decision.

**change the "o" to an "a" - s.media doesn't like certain words! 😉

Absolutely! Prolonged stress can affect both the nervous system and digestion, sowing long term effects on functional tests like Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis, Gastro Intestinal tests, and Hormone tests.

Prolonged stress can thin the lining of the digestive tract, or cause immediate damage, leading to permeable, or "leaky" connective tissues.

Once the lining becomes thin and fragile irritations can happen more easily and faster over time. At first irritations can be small but over time the body can react faster and become more sensitive.

Contact with irritants can cause the bodys defense mechanism to over react and cause symptoms which we know as allergy symptoms.

Does that mean we treat the allergy?
Or should we look at the Stress?

I'd love to hear your thoughts

I spent years trying to figure out my allergies.

Trying to find the "right antihistamine"
Trying out armbands for pressure points
Trying out different tonics, supplement diets.

Over the years my allergies just got worse and worse, until I felt I was allergic to the world.

Stuck inside my house, afriad to go out during hayfever season. Nothing was helping stop the hayfever.

Functional testing showed I had seriously low Vitamin D levels
Heavy metals that were stuck in my system
My whole system needed help.

I started a comprehensive plan to clear these toxins out.
A plan that worked.
A plan that saw my Vitamin D levels rise
That improved my sleep, energy, and took away that foggy feeling in my brain.
I could go outside, and even visit garden centres and parks, smell the strong pollen but not have hayfever or allergy symptoms.
I felt Free from allergies for the first time in my life.

A plan that resulted in 4 entire years of allergy free symptoms.

I've helped others reduce their terrible allergies after experiencing the changes an Integrative holistic approach can make.

If this resonates with you get in touch
I can help you.

🥬 My digestion was just off - feeling bloated at times, little niggles here and there. I sometimes felt a tension in my digestive system. And some nights of unexplained sleep.

🍎 This all started after a return from a holiday. I had taken a mouthful of water, which was not filtered or bottled, and suspected I might have picked up a bacteria or something else.

🧐 I ordered a Gut Health test in September and my results showed I was missing a very important gut helping bacteria and one oral bacteria.
And thankfully no nasty bacteria or infections.

🥔 I made changes immediately using supplements and diet, choosing my foods as a medicine and noticed the difference within days..

🥬 Green leafy veg is one thing I just adore - I benefitted from their nutrients and also their gut healing properties.

🍎 If digestion upsets is something you're strughling with I can help

🧐 Don't worry - we're all in the dark until we know

🧐 Are you giving your child a probiotic constantly and it's not helping

🧐 Is your child still experiencing allergies, hayfever, coughs, chest infections despite numerous trips to the docs office?

🧐 Are you sick of giving one set of medicines after another and not getting anywhere?

🧐 Are the allergy symptoms getting worse each year?

👉 You're in the right place
👉 I've helped lots of families recover their Immune systems
