22.01.2022 The benefits of lemon peels!

18.01.2022 Meet Ciara, who at 17 years of age was told by medical experts that she had an inoperable brain tumour. Dr Charlie Teo was the only neurosurgeon who agreed to ...attempt to remove the rare tumour. Due to the position of the tumour, it was one of Charlie’s most difficult surgeries. The surgery was a success and Ciara has been living tumour free for 3 years now! Ciara takes part in our #brainfreeze4braincancer challenge. You can watch and support Ciara's FREEZE here: https://www.facebook.com/donate/1014100562394075/1014100575727407/ Help us put a FREEZE on brain cancer - take the #brainfreeze4braincancer challenge today!

14.01.2022 There’s no evidence that we need milk to strengthen our bones. The federal government tells us that milk is a perfect food that Americans should lap up da...ily, three glasses to be exactin spite of a large (and growing) body of research showing its lack of benefits and awful side effects. I agree, it is nature’s perfect foodbut only if you are a calf! Humans are the only species that continues to drink milk after weaning. These dairy free options are not only better sources of calcium, but they also contain other great sources of nutrients. See more

13.01.2022 Just because it is food does it mean it is nutrition? Imagine the morning breakfast, cheerios with milk, croissant with jam and a coffee, toast and jam, microwa...ved oatmeal....pasteurised orange juice, the beige meals How can this be considered food? Those toxins, the colourings, the artificial presevatives, the salt (aka sodium chloride not real salt), the sugar alternatives that 'hitch a ride' with the so called food,, alert the immune system in the gut, they trugger the liver, they literally are like terrorists in our body. The sneak in, they are free loaders. Thank goodness for the immune system, thank good ness for the liver and it's own immune cells, thank goodness for the stomach acid, thank goodness for our lymphatic system. But these amazing systems and more can only keep us going for so long, the immune system cannot 'clear' a food colouring like it does a virus, it has to go onto a 24-7 shift. This 24-7 shift work can only last so long, there is then ongoing INFLAMMATION, ouch that is so not kind to the blood vessels, it is so not kind to the joints, it is so not kind to the brain, it is so not kind to the hormones, the endometrium, the libido, the mind. . We live in this mode for what? 20 years? 40 years? ...then the body becomes 'dis-eased'. We seek medical attention, thinking it can be 'fixed' with a pill. BUT our loyal body does not want a pill, it wants REAL food, REAL NUTRITION. The anti-inflammatories work for a while but now our liver has had enough, it can no longer keep cleaning up that trash, the free loaders, the terrorists. The loyal liver starts to make us feel irritable, it makes the cycles go out of whack but oh it is ok, there is a name for that condition it is called PMS or PCOS, peri menopause, hot flush, depression ....hmmm It is called a body depleted of REAL food, an over taxed immune system that has created fires inside the body because it was only trying to do it's job. The liver is crying out for anti oxidants and nutrient dense greens but it is not happening. The preservatives, the pesticides slip in they create chaos, but they do not care. The kids love the artificial food, the stressed out mum needs quick energy, the city worker needs his alcohol, the over worked nurse needs her coca cola.... we just keep going. (Need is the wrong word right?, do we really need? Or we choose?) No judgement here, but just something to think about for our health and the health of our loved ones. What if we just stopped, what if we asked at every meal is this NOURISHING me or ROBBING me? What if?

11.01.2022 Trying to reduce your caffeine intake? Dandelion root coffee is a great alternative. It is caffeine free and has detoxifying effects, so its great for your live...r and skin health. Dandelion root has an earthy flavour similar to coffee but less bitter. You can harvest your own fresh dandelion root, chop into small chunks and roast in a moderate oven for an hour or until dry and toasted. Add 1 tablespoon roasted root to 1 cup boiling water, simmer for 5 minutes and strain. Alternatively, you can buy an instant dandelion root coffee blend. Best served with milk or a milk alternative. Yum! See more

09.01.2022 Winter tonic... still time to make it... no synthetic supplements, no drugs, no fillers just real food. .

09.01.2022 It is that time of the year, the weather is changing, kids are waking up silly hours to go to school. These silly hours get even worse as they rise when their c...ortisol has not yet spiked to wake them wake up naturally (known as the cortisol awakening response) and the melatonin is still bathing their wonderful bodies...but they have to disturb that beautiful natural rhythm to get to school yawning maybe even. Then we wonder why they have 'fallen ill'. Did you know the body does not just 'fall ill'. It has a 'rhyme and reason' to do what it is doing. It does not one day just think, 'ah, today I am just going to inflame myself in the tonsil area because I have so much ATP to just burn up, let's just do this'. Like seriously...and when on earth did these 'adjustments' to change become 'diseases' that indicate your child is 'sick'. Why not tweak that thinking to 'my child is manifesting tonsillitis (or a flu etc) because he/she is - not getting enough sleep, - is sat in a classroom all day long - is exposed to dry central heating all day long - lacks movement - feels stressed with starting back at school - has copious amounts of foul-smelling hand sanitizer that overwhelms his/her senses - just needs a few days off 'lazing' in bed Catch my drift? When your child 'falls sick' ask yourself what is going on, how can it be made easier on him/her? Having 'said' all that, my younger boychild (shy of 14yr) ended up 'manifesting' his shift to school after such a long break from school with long lie-ins and lots of sunshine, movement and happy times in the form of TONSILLITIS. He is someone who needs to talk, process and 'be heard'. It is of no surprise that the expression area (throat area) decides to show up as tonsillitis. So if your children are all of a 'sudden' manifesting all kinds of symptoms be mindful, do they need more sleep? Do they need more fluids, do they need to talk? ...so on. But here is a list of some fantabulous homeopathic remedies to help resolve tonsillitis. Within 24 hours this young boychild of ours with the help of homeopathic merc sol 30c, 4x in space of 24hrs was back into balance. We thought we may end up having to queue up for the current virus epidemic test but no queue-ing as it was tonsillitis. Have you tried these remedies? Do you know the tonsils are key organs in our first line of defense? They are also like a 'nursery' for our immune cells, the immune cells do quite a bit of 'growing up' in the tonsils. So removing them is really not the answer. If you have re-occurring tonsillitis it does not mean you have to remove your tonsils. This is rather primitive, especially in these times where that distancing or mask-wearing seems to be the rage, but what about keeping the tonsils? What about honoring our body parts? It is bonkers that in a world where a virus has created so much fear, the majority do not question the barbaric methods we have been using in mainstream medicine. The tonsils are the ultimate 'mask' they trap those 'nasties' (virus and bacteria) and then educate the immune system to 'grow up and show up' in it's glory. Anyway, have a look below and I hope this helps you and your loved ones this winter or seasonal change. If you have re-occurring tonsillitis then book a session with a homeopath and get that 'glitch' reset, it does not involve surgery, just answering lots of weird and wonderful questions and you are set with some remedies. To health!

04.01.2022 Swap out our morning coffee today for a soothing #turmeric chai latte instead! Turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory - a great addition to food and drinks fo...r an extra boost! Pairing turmeric with black pepper helps your body absorb more of it (and tastes delicious). Ginger is great too! Turmeric can be a little strong for some tastes, but the addition of #chai spices and honey turns it into a scrumptious drink you'll want to have every day. Take a little me-time with this soothing turmeric chai latte by Amy Jordan, BSc(Hons)Nutrition. Serves: 2 - cup peeled and chopped fresh turmeric - tbsp chopped peeled ginger - tbsp cardamom pods - 1 tsp whole cloves - tsp whole peppercorns - Small cinnamon stick - 2 cups milk of choice - 1 tsp loose black tea or 1 black tea bag (optional) - Honey to taste 1. Place turmeric, ginger, cardamom, cloves, peppercorns and cinnamon stick into saucepan on medium heat. Toast spices until aromatic. 2. Optional remove spices and crush slightly with a morter and pestle. This increases the intensity of the aromatics. Toasting the spices without crushing reduces some bitterness while retaining the depth of flavour. 3. Add milk and bring to a simmer (be careful not to over-boil dairy milk for best flavour); simmer for 5 minutes. 4. Remove from heat. If using black tea, add to milk+spice mixture. Brew for 3-5 minutes. 5. Strain mixture into each cup. Add honey to taste If you can only source ground spices*, use the following amounts: . 1 tsp ground turmeric . tsp ground ginger . tsp ground cardamom . tsp ground cloves . tsp freshly ground pepper . tsp cinnamon *(If you're using ground spices, skip steps toasting and crushing the spices and go straight to adding the milk, continuing the recipe from step 3). Note: spice mixes tend to be dictated by personal taste feel free to play around with the quantities a little to make the perfect turmeric chai for you! #FeelGoodFriday #TurmericChaiLatte #BioCeuticals
