25.01.2022 DON'T TELL THE KIDS! One of my kids don't like mushrooms, the other doesn't like eggplant and the other always wants meat! So what do you do? Decieve them ofcourse I made a cheat lasagna and my kids were non the wiser. No meat. Using: eggplant , mushrooms, capsicums and sweet potato and blend it all!... After they finished eating I told them it was vegetarian and they were all like "yuuuk". #health #vegetarian #food #childrensnutrition #momlife #lazagna #alternative

25.01.2022 Everyone has Pyrroles, but it comes a disorder when excess is made depleting Zinc and B6 levels. This causes a variety of symptoms in both adults and children. Does this sound like you? If so see a Naturopath to help you #pyrroles #pyroledisorder

25.01.2022 GOOD NUTRITION POST PARTUM Breakfast go-to because you can eat using one hand. Yep. If you don't think you need this...just wait until you have a baby. You need to be able to eat nutritious food whilst holding your baby at the same time. You want to avoid quick grabs that are empty calories, and difficult recipes that you won't manage while the baby is crying. ... My go to are quick oats and smoothies. Pop some quick oats in a bowl, add some filtered water and pop it in the microwave for about 90secs. Once it's nice and soft pour on some coconut milk (or milk of choice) and I mix in whatever is available. In this bowl I used - Chia seeds - 3 dates (coz it's sunnah) - chopped banana - nut mix Chia seeds are great to avoid constipation post-partum, oats are great at keeping you fuller for longer, dates have a combination of slow release and fast release sugar for long-lasting energy, and nuts and banana will you a great combination of minerals and vitamins. #nutrition #meals #Breakfast #mumlife #baby #postpartum #breastfeeding #newborn #infant #nosleep #quickfood #oats #banana #chiaseeds #onehand #help #childrenarecrazy #babylife

23.01.2022 This is me. Not a flattering angle I know but this is it. It's been a very tiring and uneasy journey for me to get here. I guess I wasn't a typical student- 2 kids single mom going through court battles whilst finishing my degree and trying to stay sane. But my blood sweat and tears paid off. To say I'm a Naturopath- I feel isn't doing justice. Long before I wanted to be a Naturopath I had a mother who was an old school Naturopath. Extreme, to say the least in being health... conscience. So getting into health was never a phase, fad or due to popular rise (not a good business strategist am I?)-it was simply the path chosen for me. Healthy living is a part of my blood and it's practical and it's a way of life. What I'm about: being pragmatic, balance, authentic and I have a genuine need to help others. What I am not about: fads, veganism, "diets", bull**** and "one pill fixes all approach". It takes balance and patience to achieve what you want and no magic pill will get u there (did I just lose half of my customers?) I have too much respect for knowledge and our teachers who spent hours writing books and researching to deny what traditional medicine has taught us about our bodies and health. I love working with people and I love what I do. So come and share your story with me and we can journey together through your health. See more

23.01.2022 Yes! I know money is an issue for everyone! So Ive made it easier to look after your health. Maryam Integrative Naturopath now offering afterpay on all consults

22.01.2022 How can Naturopathy help you? Naturopathy is a unique and effective approach to health and disease. As a Naturopathic practitioner, my priority is to combine a holistic approach, taking into consideration the individual mechanisms of your body type, your genetics and environment, and provide and integrative approach to achieve the best outcome. Naturopathic principles are based on five principles: first do not harm, utilise the healing power of nature, treat the cause, doctor... as teacher, treat the whole person and prevention. It is well established that the body works as a whole system; body, mind and emotions and not as separate entities and each one affects the other. My aim is to take a comprehensive approach to ensure your health outcomes are your best, whilst ensuring that I implement the principles of Naturopathy. Holistic approach My practice combines the current scientific understanding of health and disease, with the traditions of a holistic approach treating both the underlying cause and presenting symptoms. 01. NATUROPATHY Integrative Naturopathy takes an integrative approach combining all the advances of modern medicine and the tradition of natural therapies to provide the best outcome for all patients. 02.HIJAMA Hijama is an ancient and effective approach to eliminating harmful toxins from the body rejuvenating cells and organ function. 03. NUTRITION As the famous saying by Hippocrates goes let thy medicine be thy food and food be thy medicine. Yes we are indeed what we put into our mouths and into our guts. Nutrition is at the forefront of health. Poor nutrition equals poor health and good nutrition equals good health. 04.COMPREHENSIVE TESTING Modern Naturopathic practice combines traditional practice with the innovative tools available today to deeply analyse and investigate health concerns of the individual.

21.01.2022 Summer time! Home to the sweaty feet! Black tea dries up moisture, so soak your sweaty feet in a bath of black tea and keep them nice and dry for a few hours. (This is for your men ladies as ofcourse women don't have this problem)

21.01.2022 INTEGRATIVE NATUROPATH My aim is to take a comprehensive approach to ensure your health outcomes are your best, whilst ensuring that I implement the principles of Naturopathy. Comprehensive consulting involves case taking history of your illness, the body organs they affect, medication and family history will offer insight into your individual body type and allow me to personalise your healing Hijama... WHAT IS IT? Hijama therapy has been in use for centuries as a way of extracting toxins from the body through blood letting. This method is the most effective way to immediately cleanse the body from toxins and inflammation. As the blood flows throughout the entire body, to the brain, organs and limbs carrying nutrients, it also carries the waste products. If your blood is full of toxins, it will carry these toxins to your vital organs; brain, liver, reproductive organs etc causing side effects such as loss in fertility, headaches, poor detoxification and many more. Hijama detoxifies the blood allowing new blood to circulate the body and improve the function of vital organs and overall health. The Prophet (SAW) said: The best treatment is Hijama Cupping; it removes blood, lightens the back and sharpens the eyesight. (At-Tirmidhi). The Prophet (SAW) said: I did not pass by an angel from the angels on the night journey (ascension to the heavens) except that they all said to me; Upon you is Hijama cupping, O Muhammad. (Ibn Maajah) Comprehensive testing WHAT IS IT? Modern Naturopathic practice combines traditional practice with the innovative tools available today to deeply analyse and investigate health concerns of the individual. In my practice I employ the most effective and current method of investigation including stool analysis, SIBO testing, Hormonal profile testing and many more. This allows for a whole picture approach and is necessary with complicated health conditions.

And I promise it's delicious and nutritious. Chia puddings man...they rock. I'm not the OG of chia puddings but since I discovered them I love them. And this is my recipe tried and tested ...

20.01.2022 A CLOVE OF GARLIC AND CUP OF ORGANIC WHEY My story Privileged to be brought up on organic food, backyard chicken eggs and on running fields as far as the eye can see, my mother was a health fanatic. she dedicated her whole life to being an entrepreneur who implemented an eco friendly, completely natural and health conscious mother and individual. She made her own bread, cheese, yogurt, butter, jams, chutneys and beauty products. As a result, I grew up never seeing the inside ...of a GPs office. Every ailment had a herbal remedy and a natural alternative. Myself and my four siblings rarely got sick and I owe my health and robust body to the dedication of my mother to our health. Our immunisation was a clove of garlic every day and a cup of whey with our dinner. After becoming a mother myself, I decided I would follow my mothers footsteps and try to impart the privilege of good health on to my children so they would live in good health, ailment free. Having grown up on an all natural life style, its no surprise I love health, herbs and alternative medicine as that was my only source of medicine growing up. Being exposed to alternative medicine at a young age, the knowledge and understanding of natural remedies has become second nature to me, only being enhanced through formal education which gives me an extra edge aiding my skills.

19.01.2022 THE ROOT CAUSE OF ALL DISEASE. According to Marcelo Campos MD: "Inside our bellies, we have an extensive intestinal lining covering more than 4,000 square feet of surface area. When working properly, it forms a tight barrier that controls what gets absorbed into the bloodstream. An unhealthy gut lining may have large cracks or holes, allowing partially digested food, toxins, and bugs to penetrate the tissues beneath it. This may triggerinflammationand changes in the gut f...lora (normal bacteria) that could lead to problems within the digestive tract and beyond. The research world is booming today with studies showing that modifications in the intestinal bacteria and inflammation may play a role in the development of several common chronic diseases. We already know that increased intestinal permeability plays a role in certain gastrointestinal conditions such as celiac disease, Crohns disease, andirritable bowel syndrome. Some studies show that leaky gut may be associated with other autoimmune diseases (lupus, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis), chronic fatigue syndrome,fibromyalgia, arthritis, allergies,asthma, acne, obesity, and even mental illness." - Harvard Journal One of the major breakthroughs in understanding the role of gut permeability in health and disease has been the discovery of zonulin. Zonulin regulates epithelial and endothelial barrier functions, and high levels indicate chronic inflammatory diseases. Some recommendations that help with Leaky Gut: #Keeping a diary is important to keep track of triggers. #Remove problematic foods including alcohol, processed foods, certain medications, and any foods that may cause allergies or sensitivities. #Increase foods high in glutamine, zinc #Increase pre and probiotics including fermented foods i.e Sauerkraut #zonulin #leakygut #automimmune #chronic #inflammation #epithelialbarrier #barrier #medications #processedfoods #asthma #chronicfatigue #fibromyalgia #IBS #multiplesclerosis #harvard #glutamine #zinc #probiotics #prebiotics #celiac #chrohns #maryamintegrativenaturopath

17.01.2022 How I solved my mastitis First of all it's bloody painful!!! Secondly: a disclaimer- this might not work for someone who has a poor functioning immune system and poor gut function. And just because it worked for me doesn't mean it will work for everyone. If you are in pain and suffering- take antibiotics and don't let it worsen. 1- I noticed I felt fatigued, hot and got a headache, which I usually never get. I touched my breast and it was tender and hot...so I knew mastiti...s was brewing. I immediately went to the shower, applied pressure and squeezed out my breast under hot water. The heat allows the milk to flow out easily. 2- After my shower I used my breast pump and emptied it completely. Then applied a cold application ie. Cabbage leaf (boiled and cooled in the fridge) or a similar gel breast pad I brought. And I would repeat this cycle every 2-3hours. 3- Don't breastfeed baby until infection has completely healed- give it 2-3days (express and bottle feed) because if baby isn't sucking correctly it will also cause a backflow once again blocking your ducts. 4- Every 3 hours I was taking inflavonoid intense (for it's Curcumin), followed by Echinacea and Vit C for immune function and probiotics. I managed to heal within 2 days without the use of antibiotics or painkillers thankfully. Hope this is helpful #mastitis #mastitistreatment #breastfeeding #newborn #pain #breast #infection

17.01.2022 My dad had a crazy allergic reaction to God-knows-what and was scratching himself silly. Luckily his daughter came to visit in the nick of time. I quickly applied a poultice of oats and water and mixed it until it was a gluey substance. Then I applied it directly to the area that was affected and he immediately got relief. Usually, I would put it in a stocking, but it was an urgent situation. I also quickly put it in the microwave to mix it. It works for eczema also. Oats contain beta-glucans which makes it slimey and also cooling. So...there u have it folks home remedies!

16.01.2022 Liver is king! It's so important to keep your phase 1 and phase 2 liver detoxification factory optimal. Phase 1 detoxification is catalysed by enzymes referred to as the cytochrome P450 enzyme group: simply put this pathway converts a toxic chemical into a less harmful chemical. This is achieved by various chemical reactions (such as oxidation, reduction and hydrolysis), and during this process free radicals are produced which, if excessive, can damage the liver cells. So ...what nutrients are needed for P1? B vitamins Zinc Antioxidants Folic acid Milk thistle/Silybum Vit C Vit E Phase 2 detoxification is called the conjugation pathway, whereby the liver cells add another substance (eg. cysteine, glycine or a sulphur molecule) to a toxic chemical or drug, to render it less harmful. This makes the toxin or drug water-soluble, so it can then be excreted from the body as bile or urine. Major Phase II pathways Glutathione Sulphate Glycine Glucuronide conjugations So what nutrients are needed for P2? taurine cysteine glycine glutamine choline inositol Some possible symptoms of impaired liver function and detoxification include: Disturbed sleep Itchy skin Clammy hands Muscle pain or cramps Extreme tiredness Headaches Irritability Depression Trouble breathing Nausea Digestive issues Sensitivity to smell Fluid retention (edema), such as in your abdomen Difficulty tolerating exercise Jaundice (eyes and skin may look yellow; an extreme sign) Eat these cruciferous veggies to improve liver detoxification Broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale, bok choy, arugula, Brussels sprouts, collards, watercress and radishes #liver #detox #nausea #insomnia #musclefatigue #headaches #digestion #depression #bvitamin #vitc #vite #health #naturopath #holistichealth #phase1 #weightloss #exercise #gymlife #checkyourliver #lemon #phase2 #aminoacids #sulphur #cruciferousvegetables #melbourne #melbournian #hume #northern #humecity

16.01.2022 Why do we continue to waste money on cleaning products?? Yes...it's not sexy but it works. I'm talking about good old Vinegar. White or apple cider depending where u use it can be used anywhere in the home. And don't worry that pungent smell goes when it dries. Plus it will force u to air out ur home . Stop getting sucked into the cleaning product scams and use good old fashioned elbow grease and Vinegar.

15.01.2022 So people have all of a sudden taken a huge interest in their immune health since Covid. But here's why taking immune herbs aren't really effective. The immune system wouldn't be able to exist without the microbiome in the gut. The gut is the gateway to good health and if this foundation isn't stable and healthy...taking Zinc, Vit A and C won't do the trick, they will only help to facilitate the immune response.... Our immune system is reliant on the signals going to and from the gut bacteria which monitor invading pathogens and alert the defensive system if something is wrong. If there isn't enough diversity in the gut microbiome- signals aren't received and the immune system cannot do it's job. Hence why COVID has been deadly for some people. But diversity (not just one particular large amount) is a key factor in immunity. Here's how to increase diversity of gut bacteria. 1- Increase intake of root veggies in your diet to feed different bacteria in your gut. 2- Eating plant based foods, nuts, seeds and grains 3- Intermittent fasting allows microbiome to grow and expand 4- Reduce foods that are dangerous for the microbiome by eating Organic foods and drinking filtered water 5- Going out into nature (hiking, walking through forests) 5- Dogs increase microbiome and longevity of life 6- Probiotic intake #health #immune #bacteria #guthealth #microbiome #plantbased #seeds #nuts #melbourne #naturopath #holistichealth #gut #holistichealing #maryamintegrativenaturopath #supportimmune #intermittentfasting #diversity #nature #forest #hiking #dogs #corona

14.01.2022 Another helpful tip. I know most people think of oats as a dish that should be served sweet. But have you ever tried putting it in soups? Or using it to replace quinoa if you run out? Yup. Oats can be eaten as a savoury dish too. I often put it in my soups instead of those little pasta pieces or if I've run out of quinoa. What's so good about oats? Other than it being delicious, it's filling, it's full of vitamins a minerals, it is what we call a nervine: which means it's go...od to nourish the nervous system. Its also great at lowering cholesterol as the fibre binds to the cholesterol and eliminates it in the stool. And lastly it's serves to bulk up the stool to avoid constipation. Now you know. Throw it in your dishes! It's very palatable and fussy kids usually don't have an issue with it. You can also use it to bulk up mince meat dishes i.e pasta meat sauce.

14.01.2022 GET rid of your recipe books...honestly... Kids on average have to taste things 6x before liking it. A2014 studywas one of the first to show that a flavor window exists. Researchers at the University of Birmingham found thatkids were most likely to accept a new vegetable they hadnt tastedpea puréebetweenfour and six months of age. So if you have missed that age...buying a whole bunch of new ingredients for one recipe and then getting frustrated because kids won't eat... it is very draining. For me, having teens in the house it's been terribly frustrating and I give up. So instead I use my usual recipes that I know kids like and make them "healthier". For e.g. pasta using meatballs adding shredded zucchini and carrots. Or Sheperds pie- adding lentils into the sauce and making the mash with parsnip, white sweet potatoe and potato (they can't even tell) #health #healthy #momlife #childrenshealth #cooking #naturopath #foodasmedicine #maryamintegrativenaturopath

11.01.2022 Are your indoor plants dying? In the nursery they are do vibrant and lush. Yet for some reason we take them home and they start to die off and look meek. Try this banana fertilizer made from banana peel. Take your discarded banana peel and place in a jar. Full with water and leave for about a week. Dilute with water. Some plants are more needful of nitrogen, while others are more needful of phosphorus, and still others need a higher level of potassium- banana peel have all t...hree. Give it about 3 weeks before you start to see results. Indoor plants don't need to be watered as often so ensure not to over water.

10.01.2022 Naturopathy employs is own unique way of treating clients. Our principles are patient-centred and concentrate on treating the cause whilst keeping in mind every individual is unique in their genetic makeup. If you walk away from a consult with 20different supplements...I would urge you to reconsider returning. As any industry we have good practicing Naturopaths and terrible one's. If they show an attentive ear, provide you with small changes, you know it's not just about filling their pockets.

10.01.2022 So...I'm currently on maternity leave and not taking on any new clients. Hopefully will b back to work in a month (Zoom only). In the meantime please have patience if I do not reply promptly to DM's and messages Thank you Maryam Integrative Naturopath

10.01.2022 DO NOT VACCINATE Is what u expect from me as a Naturopath Im sure. This is and I think always will b a topic of contention. And it should always be open to discussion and criticism. ... So Ive just had my third baby and was wondering what stand I would take this time. My first child reacted badly to the MMR vaccine (about 13years ago) His face swelled up and so did his arm. He looked like he got the mumps. My second child took it like a champ. No reactions no concern. So I wondered what the difference was. So... despite the impending anger this might cause some of my fellow anti vaxxers- here it is. The fact is vaccines save lives. Its undeniable. Find me evidence where it says otherwise. Do vaccine cause autism? Thats the real cause of anger for antivaxxers. Now you might find this interesting. The only scientist who linked the MMR vaccine with Autism was found out to have skewed the data and was discredited, but you can find all that out in the literature yourself. This website is unbiased and has no association with pro or anti vaccine lobbies www.vaccines.procon.org and read on the pros and cons of vaccination. So whats the deal with Autism and vaccines? Dr Mark Hyman has a very interesting explanation of heavy metals and vaccines and I would go have a read on his blog (https://drhyman.com//how-to-rid-your-body-of-mercury-and-/) There have been studies done specifically on this and the link is due to poor or compromised gut lining. Children born with poor liver and gut issues ie. Leaky gut are the ones having the reactions to vaccines causing Autism. This certainly explains why my older son reacted and my younger one didnt (he was later diagnosed with leaky gut and pyrroles). So, the vaccine is perhaps the push over the edge. The other parable I would like to draw is the fact that our daily lives expose us to much much more toxins/mercury and heavy metals than a single shot of a vaccine does. Yeah....including your fruit and veggies and water :) But our bodies are also extremely clever at self cleaning. Hence why a good liver is so important. @ Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

08.01.2022 Iron and Vit D is so important for bodily function. Low iron contributes to fatigue, shortness of breath, tiredness, bruising and poor cognitive function.

Dr Mark Hyman has a very interesting explanation of heavy metals and vaccines and I would go have a read on his blog (https://drhyman.com//how-to-rid-your-body-of-mercury-and-/) There have been studies done specifically on this and the link is due to poor or compromised gut lining. Children born with poor liver and gut issues ie. Leaky gut are the ones having the reactions to vaccines causing Autism. This certainly explains why my older son reacted and my younger one didn't (he was later diagnosed with leaky gut and pyrroles). So, the vaccine is perhaps the push over the edge. The other parable I would like to draw is the fact that our daily lives expose us to much much more toxins/mercury and heavy metals than a single shot of a vaccine does. Yeah....including your fruit and veggies and water :) But our bodies are also extremely clever at self cleaning. Hence why a good liver is so important. @ Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

03.01.2022 Mental health is the biggest issue in the western world costing the economy billions of dollars each year. Suffering severe anxiety for some years, I hated myself for not being strong enough to deal with my crisis. I was always prone to anxiety growing up- meeting new people, being confronted, being in the spotlight etc But nothing like this...my divorce really tested my mental health. ... After many years of being on antidepressants I came to realize, the tablets didn't really stop my anxiety at all. My anxiety came from having an unsettled heart and mind. Anxious about the future or rather history repeating itself. Which came from not really understanding or appreciating Allah SWT's plan. When you really understand that your Qadr is written and certain tragedies were meant for you, your heart rests knowing that. You stop the self blame and the anger and you accept whatever comes your way good or bad. Learning this and really absorbing this concept is what helped my anxiety. Allah swt tells us "verily in the remembrance of Allah swt do hearts find rest" but we don't really understand the extent of that one simple line. Honestly, nothing will ever bring tour comfort in this world unless you come close TO Allah swt and relax your heart with his remembrance. And you can bank on that! #remember #islamislife #islamisperfect #iman #dua #anxiety #anxious #hearts #findrest #restfulheart #qadr #allahswt #medicineoftheheart #heartandmind #rememberallah #acceptance #mentalhealth #muslims #muslimahtalks

02.01.2022 ANXIETY is linked to so many chronic illnesses. It's absolutely horrible to live with and I know because I was there at one point in time. And that is why I will never be the practitioner to advocate against antidepressants because they saved my life. If you have tried everything and it fails- don't be afraid of antidepressants. Talk to a good doctor who won't just hand then out like candy and who will find the right fit for you. I like to work with the western system and not... against...better results can be achieved in collaboration. If you are experiencing anxiety DM me and I can see how we can work together to help you. #mentalhealth #ANXIETY #depression #medicine #antidepressants #sad #angry #edgy #moody #emotional #maryamintegrativenaturopath #naturopathy #westernmedicine #mthfrgene #dehydration #cortisol #inflammation #anaemia #vitD #allergies #heavymetal #thyroid #magnesium #deficiency

02.01.2022 Part 2- DO NOT VACCINATE The reality is children are born with heavy metals already in their system due to your daily exposures. We see this in many studies done on the analysis's of a mother's umbilical cord. There are natural exposures to heavy metals thru what we eat and what we breath and then there are man made one's. We cannot escape that reality. Read this on mercury and children... (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3096006/) So...having said this. And having read the evidence (im assuming you have read the references I've posted) where do you do from here? If your child seems to b more sensitive than others and u suspect gut issues, perhaps delay vaccination until he is a bit more able. I chose to do the necessary vaccines and opt out of the "updated" ones such as the flu vaccine and others that are not life threatening. Why? Because getting your immune system exposed to the real deal makes it alot stronger than a vaccine could. Natural immunity is no doubt much better. Fix your child's gut issues. Clean their body of any neurotoxins and support their immune system daily. Start with your own health. Ensure good liver and gut function whilst you are pregnant and before hand. This will help ensure your baby has good health overall. Lastly, there is good and bad in everything. You have to weigh it up for yourself. But don't look at one piece of evidence and make up your mind. Look at both arguments to truly make an informed decision. Don't look at one line a Naturopath outlines as evidence for her/his argument and say this is truth. That's incredibly bias and unethical. At the end of the day...we have to make the decisions and live with them. Both vaccinating and not vaccinating can have consequences- let's not forget. #antivax #vaccines #autism #naturpathy #naturopath #naturopathicmedicine #immunity #Immune #immunise #procon #maryamintegrativenaturopath #bitchwhat #donthate
