25.01.2022 Human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) from breastmilk pass through the digestive system intact, reaching the colon and exerting prebiotic effects. This prebiotic action in the colon, the most well-known attribute of HMO, helps to promote the colonisation of the gut with ‘good bacteria’ such as the Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus species. In addition to this function, it has been shown that HMO can block the adhesion of pathogenic microbes to GIT surfaces, lowering the risk of v...iral, bacterial and protozoan parasite infections. At the mucosal lining HMO exerts some localised effects such as immune system modulation. Head over to the blog to find out about oligosaccarides, how they effect infant health and how to ensure bottle fed babies are also getting some of these benefits by using HMO analogues in formula. https://www.gracehamiltonnaturalhealth.com//oligosaccharid

23.01.2022 Did you know that cooking with cast iron cookware can actually increase the iron content of your food? I use cast iron about 80% of the time when cooking. The pot needs to be the raw cast iron type- the black uncoated ones, like the one in the picture. Not the fancy enamel coated cast iron pots like Le Creuset. This is good news, because Le Creuset costs a fortune and raw cast iron is incredibly cheap! When cooking food in a cast iron pan, the pan releases iron into the foo...d. This iron is absorbable by the body. The acidity of the food, the moisture content, and cooking time of food all effect how much iron is released. Acidic foods, foods with lots of liquid (like stews and soups) and foods cooked for longer periods increase in iron content more. This means something like a tomato sauce based dish slowly cooked would obtain a good amount of iron, whereas something like a burger that is reasonably dry and cooked quickly would not get as much. New pans also release more than older pans that are very well seasoned, and the more you stir, the more iron is released. Read all about it and find out how much iron is added to different foods over on the blog. https://www.gracehamiltonnaturalhealth.com//cast-iron-cook

23.01.2022 Did you know coffee is the biggest contributor of anti-oxidants in a western diet?! Berries may be richer in anti-oxidants but few people are consuming enough of them to contribute meaningful amounts of anti-oxidants daily; coffee on the other hand is consumed widely and frequently. So, let’s have a cup of coffee (long black for me) and say cheers to International Coffee Day! #internationalcoffeeday2020 #internationalcoffeeday

18.01.2022 Look at the size of this blueberry! It’s a monster! Loving these jumbo blueberries that are in the shops at the minute. Blueberries really deserve the title of a superfood. They not only taste great but they have research showing how they can benefit our health: They are low calorie and really nutrient dense. ... They are packed with fibre, vitamin C, vitamin K, manganese. They also have one of the highest anti-oxidant levels of any fruit or veg The anti-oxidants in blueberries can help prevent oxidative DNA damage The can help prevent oxidation of LDL (‘bad’) cholesterol Blueberry consumption may help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease They may help improve memory & brain function Can help to improve insulin sensitivity in diabetics I try to include blueberries as often as possible, fresh when in season and frozen when out of season.

16.01.2022 Cabbage steaks. I had a whole head of cabbage that needed to be used to I cooked up some cabbage steaks. These are great with anything, you can have them as a stand alone ‘steak’ or you can keep them in the fridge and tear them up and add them to just about anything...they are great in salads and on top of soups. I also really like to rip of the layers and eat it as a snack. If you can manage to get them from the oven to the serving plate without nibbling those crispy edge ...bits, you have more will power than me, they are irresistible!!! If you haven’t tried cabbage steaks yet, just do it. It’s so easy. Cut cabbage into about 1inch sections Make a marinade of your choice and coat the cabbage cloves on both sides (I used olive oil, soy sauce, paprika, garlic, chili) Put on a tray a preheated oven (around 200c / 390f) Bake until browned, takes around 40 mins but you’ll know by looking at them when they are ready . . . . . #cabbagesteaks

16.01.2022 My son was sitting on the sofa with mysterious lumps under his t-shirt. He said he was too hot, so he put some nice cold carrot on his belly to cool him down.

13.01.2022 'Tis the season... for overdoing the alcohol! Here are some simple steps you can take to reduce how much you are drinking and save yourself from a banging hangover! If drinking socially, try and arrange an alternative activity that doesn’t involve so much alcohol. Even going for a meal with a glass of wine is a better alternative than going to the pub. Volunteer to be the designated driver so that you cant drink... If you are headed for a big night out try and make sure you have a good meal before you go out and something to eat when out. Drink a glass of water with every drink Don’t get into buying rounds of drinks. Everyone drinks more when they are drinking rounds. Swap to low alcohol versions of your drink Try switching out non alcoholic drinks for alcoholic ones. Have the tonic without the gin! Set a drink limit, count your drinks and stick to it Delay when you start drinking. Every hour makes a big difference to how you consume If you are in the habit of having a glass of wine at home to unwind, Try having another non alcoholic drink in the same glass, such as: Some people like to have a glass of Kombucha instead of wine or beer A glass of pomegranate or cheery juice instead of red wine A glass of sparkling water A glass of apple juice Herbal tea Change your evening routine so it doesn’t revolve around alcohol Don’t keep a supply of alcohol in the house Make sure you always have a few alcohol free days every week For more info on how alcohol effects your body and depletes your body's nutrient status head over to the blog. https://www.gracehamiltonnaturalhealth.com/blog/alcohol

05.01.2022 Several factors are known to be important in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) including genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors such as: Physical inactivity Sedentary lifestyle Cigarette smoking Over consumption of alcohol... Obesity is a major risk factor for developing T2D and as weight increases so too does the risk of developing T2D. However, further research is required to discover: -Why do not all obese people develop T2D? -If obesity is prevented, how much of a reduction can we expect in T2D? -How much weight loss in T2D leads to an improvement in cell function?

Using sweet herbs and spices to add sweetness to your foods has many benefits over conventional sweeteners. They not only give you that sweet taste you crave, but they add beautiful flavours, ...have very few kilojoules and are jam packed with vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients that have many health benefits.

01.01.2022 My clients often ask me how to wash fruit and veg. This is how I do it. It helps to get rid of dirt and soil and also any residues of pesticides or herbicides that remain. Fill a tub with 3/4 water 1/4 vinegar (I just use the cheap white vinegar you get in massive bottles for $1). Put the fruit or veg in and shake it around. Let it sit for 10-15 mins. Rinse well under running water, including giving it a good rub. ... if you don’t want to do the soaking bit it is still really important to give fruit and veg a good scrub under running water I don’t do this for fruit or veg that is going to be peeled. But I don’t peel very much fruit and veg! Some veg will hold more pesticides and herbicides than other. Even if you are buying organic produce you still need to give it really a good wash before eating. It is good to refer to the @environmentalworkinggroup list to see what fruit and veg tests at higher levels of pesticide residue so you can focus on giving those a thorough wash. When you are eating a lot of plants, all these residues add up so it’s best to get rid of as much as you can where possible. . . . . . . . . . #vegetables #plantbaseddiet #eatyourgreens #pesticidefree #naturopathsydney #nutritionist #plantbasednutritionist #veganfood #residuefree #organicveggies #howtowashfruitsandveggies #clean15 #dirtydozen #ewg #environmentalworkinggroup #foodprep #foodhygiene #healthyfood #healthyfoodprep #loveveggies #vegetarianfood #veganfood #fruitandveggies #healthyinsideandout #pesticidefreezone #nopesticides #foodtips #holistichealth #holisticlifestyle #naturalfoods
