25.01.2022 Some great tips

24.01.2022 Same, same but different. If you are trying to get your children to increase their variety, you can first try increasing variety within safe foods (ones they ...have already learnt to like. So if they like cucumber, sometimes cut it in circles, then maybe into sticks or here I have made a fun skin but half peeling it (and kids can also eat the peel if they want). Sometimes I use a crinkle cutter to cut it! I did over cucumber my kids a while ago, so make sure you dont relay on the same couple of safe foods all the time. And if you are worried your children dont eat enough variety and want individual help, DM me for some names of great practitioners. Children should have 20-30 foods they will eat. And some children need extra support and thats nothing to be ashamed about.

21.01.2022 Healthy brekkie popsicles. What an awesome idea for these hot days!

21.01.2022 Met with our local MP Milton Dick MP today to discuss and advocate for the permanent inclusion of Telehealth item numbers for Medicare and DVA Dietitian and Allied Health services. Since March when COVID-19 restrictions began, our private practice alone has now delivered more than 450 telehealth services. Prior to this, Medicare and DVA telehealth item numbers didn't exist and even now, are only temporary until September 30, 2020. Here's hoping our Parliamentary Reps will ...do all they can to make sure we can all safely access the healthcare we need both during and beyond COVID-19. Thanks for your time today Milton! #telehealth #dietitians #alliedhealthprofessionals #Budget2020

21.01.2022 Put down that shot of apple cider vinegar and read this... There is no clinical evidence that suggests ACV is beneficial for digestion, in fact it may trigger ...heartburn in some! When you Google search ACV, it's touted as a fix for everything from lowering blood sugar and boosting gut health, to losing weight and even helping with some cancers... But as far as the science goes, studies are pretty minimal. Where do the health claims come from? There is a little bit of evidence for vinegar (not exclusive to ACV) to help regulate appetite and lower your blood sugar response if you're having a high carb meal, like pasta, particularly if you have type 2 diabetes. In some vinegars that haven't been pasturised (i.e. heated at high temps), there is also some bacteria. Here's what to keep in mind next time you read any bold claims. Our stomach naturally produces acid that is MUCH stronger than ACV. So despite the marketing claims that ACV increases the acidity of your stomach and in turn helps you digest food better, human studies don't back this up. Despite the claims about good bacteria in it, the little bit you might find in ACV doesn't seem to be anything special or magical (we even get bacteria from the air!). The number of bacteria is quite low per serve compared to things like kombucha or kefir... and playing in dirt . Concentrated ACV may erode the enamel on your teeth, which can lead to tooth decay, and it's also a common trigger for people who suffer with heartburn and reflux. Take-home: If you like the taste, by all means use ACV as part of a delicious salad dressing. It can also help with making poached eggs (anecdotally speaking!) - and it can be used for cleaning windows... But please don't over-pay nor force it down thinking it will help or 'cure' anything when it comes to your health. The evidence simply isn't there.

20.01.2022 Some great food for thought to help support our little ones to be good eaters at the table!

20.01.2022 Absolutely true.
