Kia Ora! For those of you who don't already know me, I'm Terese, a registered Clinical Nutritionist and nature lover. I'm originally from the UK and have lived in Auckland for 9 years now.

I believe that virtually all disease starts in the gut and that it's the gateway to optimal wellness. I'm passionate about helping people take control of their health through education, motivation and ongoing support.

I adopt a holistic approach to treat the 'whole' person with a 'food first' philosophy. I use world-class functional testing (when needed), to understand the root cause of your condition. I believe that the human body is capable of self-repair, given the right nutrients and environment.

Some things I can help with include:

💚 Gut health
💚 Digestive issues
💚 Energy & fatigue
💚 Detoxification
💚 Food intolerances & allergies
💚 Poor sleep
💚 Hormone health
💚 Weight management
💚 Immune health
💚 Healthy ageing
💚 Functional testing: Microbiome, DUTCH, Organic Acids
💚 DNA Genetic profiling for health & wellbeing.

If you're keen to find out more, please visit my website (link in bio) and book in for a FREE 15-min discovery call. I'd love to hear from you!

That's all for now.

What's so great about green veggies anyway? A lot! Not only are they packed with nutrients, such as antioxidants, folate, vitamin C, vitamin K, fiber, potassium, flavonoids and carotenoids. Research suggests that cruciferous veggies (part of the Brassica family of plants) may have anticancer effects.

Cruciferous veggies including broccoli, Brussel sprouts, cabbage, collard greens, rocket, bok choy, wasabi, radishes, watercress, cauliflower, kale and turnips.

During food preparation, chewing, and digestion, the glucosinolates in cruciferous vegetables are broken down to form biologically active compounds such as indoles, sulforaphane and isothiocyanates which have been shown to:

- Help protect cells against DNA damage
- Have an antibacterial effect
- Have an anti-inflammatory effect
- Inhibit blood tumor cell migration.

Are you getting enough greens? You might want to throw a few more green veggies into your shopping trolley this weekend!

Poor sleep? Suffering from fatigue, anxiety or depression? It could be related to your gut health. 90% of our serotonin is made in the intestines. Serotonin is a feel-good neurotransmitter that stabilises our mood, feelings of happiness and well-being.

Poor gut health can result in low production of serotonin.
Low serotonin is linked with anxiety, depression and poor sleep.
Serotonin is a precursor for the production of melatonin, which helps regulate circadian rhythms. It also plays a role in appetite and digestion.

So if you’re not a good sleeper, or if you have anxiety or depression, you might want to think about your gut health!

Read more about which foods can support serotonin production on the blog: https://www.powerbynutrition.co.nz/post/foods-that-boost-serotonin-production

You can't change your inherited genes, but your genes do not control your destiny. However, our genes are influenced by our lifestyle and nutrition choices. You can modify gene expression and improve the functioning of your genes by making the right nutrition, exercise, and other lifestyle choices.

I find it absolutely fascinating that what we eat and the lifestyle choices we make have a direct impact on the functioning of our genes.

I've recently become a Fitgenes Certified Practitioner so that I can design more personalised and targeted nutrition, exercise and lifestyle plans for my clients based on their personal genetic profile. I will be sharing more about this over the coming weeks!

Purple foods not only look beautiful but they contain powerful antioxidants called anthocyanins, known to be anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial. These are beneficial plant pigments that give fruit and veg their deep red, purple, or blue hues. Anthocyanins are found in high concentrations in blackcurrants, blackberries, blueberries, as well as in aubergine (in the skin), red cabbage, beetroot, grapes, red onions and cherries.

Fresh, organic fruit and veg are always the best option but not always available or affordable, especially at the moment.  I'm a big fan of frozen berries and always have a supply in our freezer ready to add to smoothies and oats!

If we want to change what is around us, the way to do this is to change what is within us. ⁠

Whatever it is we are looking for outside of ourselves, the answers are always within. Our internal thoughts, ideas, beliefs, perceptions and habits form our external reality. ⁠

Hummus is super nutritious and packed with plant-based protein, fibre, plus lots of micronutrients and minerals - vitamin B1, B6, B9, zinc, copper, iron, manganese and copper. ⁠

Most supermarket brands of hummus contain preservatives, which I try to avoid. It's so quick and easy to make, I recommend giving it a go and you'll likely never want to buy a supermarket hummus again! I⁠

It can be refrigerated for up to 5 days or frozen in batches. ⁠

Ready in 10 minutes!

It's not what you eat occasionally that makes a difference, but what you eat most of the time!

I often catch myself saying to people, just because I'm a Nutritionist, doesn't mean I no longer like to eat chocolate or ice cream! Those of you who know me, know that one of my favourite occasional treats is ice cream! It used to be a regular item on my shopping list but now it's an occasional treat.

I help people adopt an 'inclusive' way of eating, by adding more healthy foods into their daily nutrition and eating right so that they don't have constant cravings to eat the wrong type of food.
