21.01.2022 Molly’s Tips for Relaxing ... Molly is my adorable dog... and boy, does she have it right when it comes to knowing how to relax. National Relaxation Day is coming up (this Saturday) and here’s 5 of her top tips ... Live in the moment. Hungry? Then eat. Tired? Then sleep. Molly listens to her main needs in the moment why worry about tomorrow?... Self-Acceptance. Molly doesn’t care how she looks, about her size or shape. She’s happy just the way she is. She’s a Cavoodle and doesn’t care if she isn’t as skinny as a Greyhound or as smart as a Terrier. She just is. Unconditional love. Greet the ones you love like you have not seen them for ages. Molly greets her mum as enthusiastically the first, second, third .. tenth time that she walks through the door. Molly doesn’t expect anything in return, she’s just happy to see you. Enjoy the small things. A smacko? WOW! Thanks!! A walk? WOW! Thanks!! A tummy rub? WOW! Thanks!! Molly believes in being grateful for the small things everything can be exciting if you allow it. Leave negativity behind and take pleasure in small moments. Play. Molly is 12 (old lady in dog years) but she can still play she likes running with her dad in the park, exploring the bushes with her sister Ruby and barking at horses on the TV. Life is short, so have fun! Who cares how old you are . You can still play Please share Molly's wisdom :-) #smartdog #nationalrelaxationday #relax #cassicowlam #goldcoastnaturopath #mobanaturals

15.01.2022 The link between good gut health and mood .... Are we anxious or depressed because we are eating poorly? And then we eat poorly because we are anxious or depressed? What a vicious cycle. "Studies about the gut-brain axis is showing that something as common as anxiety can be alleviated by eating foods that promote healthy gut bacteria. Many studies now link specific microbiota to everything from depression to inflammation. It’s difficult to underestimate the importance of co...nsuming a wide variety of nutritious foods that contain the full array of microbiota we need to thrive". In some studies, researchers speculated that rather than just using a probiotic supplement - changing the diet to more diverse foods that promote the growth of healthy gut flora may be beneficial.

12.01.2022 Hmmm ... I know doing research for my dog's "manky teeth" that it was shown that refined carbohydrates are not good for their oral health, and now research has shown it is the same for our children (I'm certainly NOT comparing kids to dogs by the way ). Whole wheat bread showed less evidence for caries, but the key culprits were foods that were high in sugar and high in refined starches. This information should inform our oral health promotion work in this country becaus...e many people would not be aware that frequently consuming foods such as white bread, rice and noodles could put children at greater risk of dental caries. Of course, poor dental hygiene has also been linked to cardiovascular disease (as has high blood sugar levels), so it could also be setting them up for increased risk of chronic conditions when they are older. #twominutenoodlesarerubbish, #softdrinkssuck #oralhealth, #childrensdentalcare, #refinedcarbohydrates, #cassicowlam, #goldcoastnaturopath

07.01.2022 Is your teen (and tween) wearing CRANKY PANTS!!! Are they drinking too much softdrink? (Any softdrink is too much softdrink BTW). This article discusses a study about softdrink and behaviour. Researchers have noticed a growing trend in emotional problems in teenagers related to their how much softdrink they consume. "Earlier studies previously linked drinking lots of soda with aggression, hyperactivity, depression and suicidal behavior". Other studies found ...consiste...nt association between adolescent’s high sugar consumption (from soft drinks and sweets) and fighting, bullying and substance use." The researchers found that drinking softdrink at every age went hand in hand with increasing aggressive behavior. Not only that, but drinking a lot of soda at 13 actually predicted more aggressive behavior at 16. The relationship between soda and aggression in the kids was stronger than other predictors of aggression, like gender, substance use and divorce. WOW ... Softdrinks are on my evil food list, but please, don't let your kids drink them. The food industry is not interested in your physical or mental health .... they're just interested in $$$$$$ ..... #saynotosoftdrinks, #mentalhealth, #sugarsucks, #cassicowlam, #goldcoastnaturopath www.cassicowlam.com.au

07.01.2022 GUM TO BUM! When teaching my students about the health of the gut, I would tell them we need to consider the whole gut . From Gum to Bum. Starting with what goes in the top end (quality of food) - how we chew (don’t just swallow whole), the digestive enzymes in our saliva, and then what happens when it hits the stomach - do we have enough acid to digest, is there enough enzymes to digest our protein? If not, then some nutrients will not be able to be released (such as ...B12 and iron). Then the liver and pancreas (very hard-working factories) secrete more enzymes and digestive juices such as bile that help us absorb our fats, carbs and proteins. And still there’s more .. The looooooonnnnnnggggg small intestines (don’t know why they are called small . they go for up to 7m in length) are covered in villi that amounts to MASSIVE surface area (the size of a tennis court) where we absorb all our nutrients all the essential minerals and vitamins that are needed for all the chemical processes in the body. If that’s not enough, then our large intestines (OK, they are fatter, but shorter) are where the majority of our microbiome live these good bugs are important for further digesting our fibres, helping our immunity, supporting our nervous system, reducing inflammation, protecting us against chronic disease all the while also creating some vitamins and short chain fatty acids that provide fuel and protect the bowel, and then the left overs are out the bum. Phew . That’s a lot going on. Right from the top if you are not able to break your food down properly, this can disrupt the healthy balance of all the gut, which is the KEY to your good health. A diet high in processed food, alcohol, medications (such as antibiotics, painkillers and proton pump inhibitors), lack of variety in the diet (the bugs LOVE a diversity of healthy food), lack of fibre, lack of water . Lack of so many things, will deplete the health of your gut and deplete the health of YOU. Feeling tired? Bad Skin? Poor Immunity? Constipation? Diarrhoea? Bloating? Reflux? Stressed? Check in on your gut health. Remember, you are not just what you eat, you are also what you digest.

05.01.2022 ARE YOU NORMAL? When it comes to pathology and your results, are you normal? What if you feel lousy but you're being told "everything is fine", or worse, "we can't find anything wrong, it's all in your head"? Or, you feel great, and have no signs or symptoms, and are being told you need a certain medication because you are outside the norm? This is because it is assumed that a result outside the range signals disease and a result within the range equals health. Howeve...r, I often see clients who may have classic anaemia symptoms - shortness of breath, palpitations, pale, low energy and their iron levels, haemoglobin, red cell count are "normal". However they are on the lower end of normal, and based on these symptoms do we ignore this and say you’re fine? On the other hand, sometimes I see clients whose results are outside the norm and they have robust health. If their cholesterol is a little high, does it mean they need a Statin? The normal range (correctly termed reference interval) was developed from a range of values from the population of supposedly healthy individuals (um, who decided who was healthy and how?). Don’t get me wrong, pathology is very important when it comes to getting an overall picture of your health, and I love reading pathology and tests, and often recommend them as well to help me see what is going on. However, being holistic means we need to TREAT THE PERSON look at the signs and symptoms, hear their story, what is going on in the family history, what about their past history may have contributed, diet issues etc all together this ties in to give a holistic picture of what is going on. If you want to get a holistic perspective on your results and health, check in with a Naturopath to get their take on what is going on.

03.01.2022 Love these little gems

03.01.2022 LOVE a salad but too cold? This time of year we should be having warming foods, lots of veggies and root veggies are divine. I'm off to a gorgeous friend for lunch so made this salad... Roasted veggies with rocket and fetta and a balsamic dressing. Serve while veggies are still warm...... Yuuummmmmm #cassicowlam #goldcoastnaturopath #winterwarmer, #veggiesrock

03.01.2022 5 STAGES OF CHANGE .... Where do you sit? Although this model of behaviour was designed years ago (1977), it can still be relevant today to help assess how ready someone is to make changes, whatever they may be. It makes sense doesn't it that if someone is not ready, then they may not be motivated to make changes in their life. If you want your partner to stop drinking, but they don’t have a problem with it, is that enough motivation? However if drinking is starting to im...pact their own health and sense of well-being, or perhaps being diagnosed with a health related issue such as fatty liver, then that may change someone to move from Stage 1 to Stage 2 or 3. So whilst this model is a useful guide, it’s not really how life works is it? Life is complex, messy, busy and never goes in a straight line. As a naturopath, it would be wonderful to guide a client from one stage to the next, the reality is that there will be changes between the stages, with some false starts or the sense of falling off the wagon and needing to go back to the beginning. That’s OK it’s about continuing to work on self that is important, being honest with yourself and others about where you are at, and being mindful about what our true motivations are. So think about where you are in regards to making changes, and remember your health professional is there to champion you moving forward. We are all beautifully human :-) Cas xx #cassicowlam #goldcoastnaturopath #holistichealth #health #healthyliving #naturopath #naturalmedicine #herbalmedicine #nutrition #beautifullyhuman #modelsofbehaviour #mindfulness #motivation #bethechange #change #movingforward www.cassicowlam.com.au
