20.01.2022 In a recent retrospective study of patients tested for COVID19, researchers have found an association between vitamin D deficiency and coronavirus infection. In a small study group, those with vitamin D deficiency were twice as likely to test positive to the virus compared to those who were vitamin D replete. Given that we have known for quite a while now that vitamin D is essential for a healthy functioning immune system, this is an exciting finding. https://www.sciencedail...y.com/releas/2020//200903133007.htm Most of us could benefit from optimising our vitamin D status. Some ways to do that include sunlight exposure, eating mushrooms, exercise and supplementation. Unfortunately if you're in the lower half of Australia, you tend to be on the lower side due to the lack of sunlight exposure in these cooler months. Reach out if you need a recommendation from our online dispensary

20.01.2022 / / AIP - The Autoimmune Protocol / / Time to take a complementary approach to chronic disease management focused on providing the body with the nutritional requirements to ease not only autoimmune conditions, but for hormone regulations, gut healing and immune regulation all while removing inflammatory foods from the diet and reducing lifestyle factors that lead to 'flare ups' and hinder recovery.

16.01.2022 / / BEHIND THE SCENES / / School holidays for us in Victoria, and for those of us in regional areas that are lucky enough to travel we have done just that... Perks are that I can work from literally anywhere so I can keep up with meal planning demand Today's plans were for a lovely lady wanting to manage her PCOS symptoms and another for a group wanting 4 weeks of custom Intermittent Fasting plans. It's not really work when you absolutely what you do!

14.01.2022 A BERRY GOOD FACE MASK Flicking through my pile of research studies that are filling up my desk and I came across a study discussing that the humble strawberry contains ellagic acid and vitamin C (which may be of no surprise), and I got to thinking about the practicality of their extreme potential to protect the skin from environmental damage, both from ingestion and external application. So my mini lab assistant and I decided to get creative and create a face mask that ...trumps anything in the supermarket and is good enough to eat! The strawberries obviously pack a punch with their antioxidant status, the full-fat yoghurt contains lactic acid which removes dead skin cells and unclogs the skin’s pores, and the lemon juice can lighten any dark spots. Which combined make a perfectly delicious rejuvenating, skin brightening, facial mask. Here’s our recipe: OUR BERRY GOOD FACE MASK Makes one generous sized mask. We doubled the amount which was enough for both of us (even after a few sneaky spoonful's disappeared). * 3 large strawberries (the riper, the better!), * 1 tbs of full-fat yoghurt, & * a small squirt of lemon juice. We used a mortar and pestle to mash the strawberries and yoghurt together and then stirred in the lemon juice before application. You could use a blender if you wish also. Apply to your face and leave for up to 20 minutes and then wash off. * DO NOT use on your skin if you have an allergy, intolerance or sensitivity to any of the listed ingredients. See more

12.01.2022 HOORAY for Spring! The weather is still fresh and wintery and we are still susceptible to a number of colds or the flu if our immune system isn't functioning as well as it could. It is also the stay of higher pollen counts leading many into a frenzy of hayfever like symptoms due to seasonal allergies. Here's my top 5 tips you can implement today to make sure you and your family are healthy and your immune system is in balance (more on that in coming days!): 1. PRACTICE PROPER...Continue reading

11.01.2022 / / WELCOME / / Melbourne's lockdowns are tough!!

10.01.2022 Here's my go-to recipe for classic nourishing and delicious breakfasts (or super quick dinners) when you want to feed an army with as little ingredients as possible or if you’d like to flex your creativity and earn brownie points on a special day like tomorrow and perhaps include a side of bacon to make your Dad/hubby smile. Our Father’s (or SuperMum's) Day one pan Spanish-Inspired Brekky Shakshuka //INGREDIENTS// 600 g of baby potatoes,... 2 tbso of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), 180g red capsicum (sliced lentgthways), 8 eggs, 2 tbsp milk, 230g pitted olives or capers (or omit if not liked), 1/4 cup of flat leaf parsley (fresh is best but whatever is handy). //INSTRUCTIONS// 1. Place potatoes in a large, deep frying pan over high heat. Cover with cold water. Bring to the boil. Boil for 15 minutes or until tender. Drain. Refresh under cold water. Cut potatoes into 2.5cm pieces. 2. Wipe pan clean. Heat oil in pan over high heat. Add potatoes. Cook, turning, for 5 minutes or until light golden. Add capsicum. Cook, stirring for 4 to 5 minutes or until capsicum is tender and potatoes are charred. Whisk half the eggs with the milk in a jug. Make 4 indents in potato mixture for whole eggs. Add egg mixture to pan, being careful not to fill the indents. Crack whole eggs into indents. Cover pan with lid. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until eggs are just set and cooked to your liking. 3. Meanwhile, combine olives and parsley in a bowl. Season with pepper. Spoon a little olive mixture over shakshuka. Sprinkle with extra parsley leaves and drizzle with a little extra oil. Serve with the remaining olive mixture.

Double Master's in Medicine complete Now to celebrate and get on with it by getting the clinic back into shape, additional evening appointment times will be released shortly, limited during business hours due to covid lockdown and homeschooling all 4 kiddos #covidsucks

09.01.2022 Huge congratulations @emelia_jackson on your @masterchefau All Star win! As much as I've enjoyed seeing all my faves back and the 3 new judges (who rocked!) I'm now devastated that there's nothing decent to watch on TV anymore Who else enjoyed this season as much as I did?

09.01.2022 SUNDAY: My favourite day of the week The perfect moment to slow down and set my intentions for the week ahead. Admittedly, not every Sunday looks like this when you're growing a tribe of children, and most of these chill days for me are full of laundry and feeding said tribe, but it's the one day when we're all together under the one roof . What's your favourite day of the week, and why?

08.01.2022 So close...! Getting ready for my 3rd last week as a medicine masters student, still soo much to do and 4 crazies to homeschool, occupy and continually feed too, 19 more sleeps!

07.01.2022 http:// 5 FOODS FOR A HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM // 1. BERRIES They're a rich source of proanthocyanidins, a potent antioxidants. Elderberry inhibits viral binding to cells and reduce the severity and duration of viral infection such as influenza. Best eaten fully ripe, raw, or made into jams and as an addition to pies! Blackberries, raspberries, blueberries and blackcurrants also contain cyanidins. A great start to a cool morning is some organic oats with a mix of these berries on to...p! 2. GARLIC You either love it or hate it! Garlic is one of the most ancient herbs that has been used since the beginning of documented history, for both medicinal and culinary purposes. It has a huge variety of beneficial effects on the immune system, it induces white blood cell activity, stimulates the release of important cytokines and stimulates the proliferation of lymphocytes and the activity of natural killer cells. It has also been shown to act against viral infections including rhinovirus and parainfluenza virus. 3. BRIGHTLY COLOURED VEGETABLES Rich in antioxidant nutrients, lycopene, betacarotene and vitamin C, the red, yellow and orange coloured vegetables are a great support to immune function. Red capsicum contains almost 3 times more vitamin C than oranges and can be used in a wide variety of dishes! Other great nutrient rich vegetables include pumpkin, sweet potato, squash, beetroot, radishes, red onion, chillies and carrots. Vitamin C increases the number of circulating immunoglobulins, which are antibodies that attach to the pathogen to help the immune system identify and destroy it. Supplementation increases the activity of neutrophils, which act to identify and destroy both bacterial and viral pathogens and increase their vitamin C concentrations. 4. MUSHROOMS Button mushrooms are an Aussie favourite in cooking however more exotic mushroom varieties such as Reishi, Shiitake, Enoki, Maitake and Oyster are just a few of the readily available mushrooms that you can add to your diet. These medicinal mushrooms contain long chain polysaccharides called beta-glucans which have been found to be potent immune enhancers. Beta-glucans stimulate white blood cells of the immune system involved in breaking down bacteria and have an anti-inflammatory effect. Mushrooms can easily be added to stir fries, winter soups, pies, pasta and omelettes. 5. GREEN TEA My fave! Green Tea contains catechins and theanine which have been found to reduce the incidence of influenza infections. Green Tea catechins may affect enzymes found within the virus responsible for its binding and replication capability. When selecting Green Tea look for organically produced teas, you may even like to try Japanese Matcha Tea. This is a powdered Green Tea, where you consume the whole product, rather than just an infusion. Which of these are currently in your diet and what are you keen on increasing? Let me know, comment below!

01.01.2022 I don't meet a single client that doesn't have some sign of an unbalanced thyroid... So many have no clue over what the thyroid even does or how such a tiny gland can have massive effects over every body system Or get told by their GP that their TSH is within the 'normal' range. This is just like a mechanic looking at the outside of your broken down car and saying that it looks okay so you shouldn't have a problem. ... Crazy, right!? If you experience any of the following, your thyroid is often involved: Anxiety, Depression, Unexplained or irregular weight gain, Weight loss efforts failing despite your best efforts, Sensitivity to cold, Irregular periods, Miscarriages or infertility, Constipation, Muscle aches and pains, Heart palpitations, Chest pains, Breathing difficulties, Thinning hair, hair loss, Eyebrow or eyelash thinning, Brittle nails, and the list goes on...
