25.01.2022 The healthiest and easiest way to quit sugar and lose weight is to adopt a diet low in carbohydrates and high in healthy fats. Although this is diametrically opposed to much conventional dietary advice, it is a medically accepted regimen, which is gaining interest and gathering expert backing across the world.

24.01.2022 TIPS ON PREVENTING WEIGHT GAIN OVER CHRISTMAS Try not to drink too much alcohol. If you are going to overindulge in alcohol, at least drink a glass of water between each drink. Try not to overindulge on too much fatty and processed food. Try and make healthier choices like some sort of protein with vegetables, salads and fruit. Try to minimise the high starchy foods as much as possible. Eg. potatoes, pasta, lasagne, rice. Eat these in moderation. Start you day with a he...althy breakfast such as a protein shake with berries or eggs with spinach and mushrooms. Try having 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar first thing in the morning. This helps with digestion. You can also try hot water with lemon juice first thing in the morning. This may relieve symptoms such as nausea, heartburn, bloating and belching which are common when you are over indulging. Increase your exercise, especially if you know you will be eating more food or worse food than normal. Go for an extra walk, or park your car further and walk. Just get out there and move! You may want to take digestive enzymes and probiotics with meals as these will help to break down and metabolise food properly so you dont get digestive upsets such as bloating, wind, constipation etc Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of filtered water per day as this will help eliminate toxins and keep you hydrated during the hot weather. Most importantly, have a very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year. See more

07.01.2022 Solve Your Health Issues with a Ketogenic Diet Ketogenic diets are powerful tools, and they can be life changing. Shifting to a low carb, fat burning diet can help you reduce your high blood pressure, banish heartburn, get rid of joint pain, and stop pre-diabetes in its tracks. What is a ketogenic diet?... Contrary to popular rhetoric, a ketogenic, low carb diet is NOT a high protein diet. Its a high fat diet, with a moderate protein and a very low carbohydrate intake. What makes the ketogenic diet so effective? It all starts with a process called ketosis, and the effect that it has on each one of the trillions of cells in our bodies. In short, ketosis means more energy and cleaner fuel burning in our cells, which leads to better cell health, better organ health, and better health overall. A diet high in clean saturated fats and low in carbohydrates actually raises your HDL good cholesterol and lowers your triglycerides. These two factors are really the true measure of good heart health. For further information contact Melbourne Naturopathy on 03 9484 4668 or [email protected].
