24.01.2022 Freshly baked tahini cookies. I got a bit fancy and made a pattern on the top with the bottom of a glass. Cute hey!... #tahini #cookies #nutritionistbaking

23.01.2022 So excited for these. . #holisticnutrition #nutritionist #sydneynutritionist #businessstuff

21.01.2022 The humble frozen chip. Just potato right? NOPE.... Well 91% of it is potato. Ingredients of golden crunch frozen chips. Potato (91%), canola oil, *wheat* flour, thickeners (1400, 1420, guar gum), salt, corn starch, acidity regulators (450, sodium bicarbonate), rice flour, dextrose (from maize), natural colours (carotene, turmeric). Can we just cut a potato up ourselves, takes the same amount of time in the oven people.

20.01.2022 Pears The absolute best this time of year. Juicy and fragrant.... Enjoy them while they are in season. I know you can get pears any time of the year, but seriously, are they as good as they are now? #eatinseason #seasonalfood #foodasmedicine #freshfruit #australianpears

14.01.2022 THIS IS A GREAT BOOK "They sculpt our organs, protect us from diseases, guide our behaviour and bombard us with their genes" This is from the back cover, and it just touches on what this book is about. So very fascinating.... * * * * * The bookmark has some interesting tips #icontainmultitudes #microbes #goodreads #freebookmarks

10.01.2022 I see all of my clients using a secure online consultation platform, here is what some of my clients have to say about their experience of switching from face to face to online consultations. "After the initial set up, which was really easy, it was much more relaxing and stress free to be at home for my consultations." Deb - 54. "I love the fact that I can be just about anywhere and still have my nutrition appointment, it makes a huge difference, especially at the moment." An...drew - 37. "I thought that the technology would get the better of me, but it was really easy to set up and the appointment went really well, Megan didn't even care that I was in my pijamas, It was just easy." Michelle - 42. "So easy, made the appointment for my lunch break at work, I didn't have to rush anywhere and try to scoff down lunch as well, I could eat while we chatted and it was all pretty sweet." Angus - 29. If you have been wanting to see a nutritionist for your health concerns but thought that face to face was not an option at the moment, consider the convenience of an online consultation that fits into your schedule with less stress.

08.01.2022 FOOD FLAVOURINGS Can be ARTIFICIAL, meaning entirely man made in a lab. or... NATURAL, meaning they originate from a natural source, but still made in a lab. Flavours are added back into foods to provide uniformity across a product when its actual flavour is destroyed through processing, regardless of the source of ingredients or the season they are grown. Natural flavours are in a vast majority of processed and ultra-processed foods and are the fourth most common ingredient listed on food labels. Added flavourings could contain anywhere between 50 to 100 ingredients, with most of these ingredients being emulsifiers, solvents, preservatives, flavour modifiers and other adjuvants. Only 1% of a flavour is actual flavouring ingredients. Food manufacturers are not required to list all flavour ingredients on a label and can just use umbrella terms like NATURAL FLAVOUR ARTIFICIAL FLAVOUR or just FLAVOUR. ARE FOOD FLAVOURINGS HEALTHY? Typically food flavourings constitute a very small amount of an overall processed food ingredient list, however, some of the processes and ingredients used in the manufacture of food flavourings can lead to endocrine disruption, pesticide exposure, carcinogenesis, heavy metal toxicity, behavioural, developmental, reproductive, and neuro toxicity, and environmental damage. IS A BANANA FLAVOURED FOOD WITH NATURAL FLAVOUR FLAVOURED WITH ACTUAL BANANA? Not likely, it is more likely a complex of other natural flavours that when combined taste like banana. These elements could come from any plant or animal origin. HOW DO I AVOID FOOD FLAVOURINGS? Read your food labels. Minimise processed and ultra-processed foods. Eat real food - It comes with its own natural flavour. Learn to cook - It’s not difficult to learn how to enhance the natural rich flavours of foods by the way you cook and prepare them.

08.01.2022 Big lunch today. To give me fuel and brain power for this afternoons clients. The beauty of doing online consultation is that I am at home for lunch, with access to the veggie garden for supplies.... Sautéed kale from the garden with purple Brussels sprouts and feta, the feta gives that saltiness that the brassicas sometimes need to balance their bitterness. Some delicious butternut pumpkin - high in vitamin A. Two scrambled eggs for protein to keep me satisfied all afternoon. Lightly sautéed tomato - cooking releases its heart healthy lycopene. Purple cabbage sauerkraut - gut bacteria diversity. All cooked in olive oil as the healthy fats will also slow down digestion and keep me satisfied for longer. Do you like a hot lunch or a cold lunch?

06.01.2022 Because mental health is not just about what is going on above the shoulders, and you are more than a combination of neurotransmitters. . Whilst a qualified therapist can help you with the emotions surrounding your mental health, holistic nutrition can help with the physiological side of your mental well-being to support your journey. . #mentalhealth #mentalwellbeing #holistichealth #holisticnutrition
