25.01.2022 We never have a true idea of the value of health until we lose it.. #wednesdaywisdom #health #naturalhealth #wellbeing #nutrition #perpetualwellbeing

25.01.2022 If you feel that your mind could be sharper, think vitamin D! A recent meta-analysis compared serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) concentrations with executive function in adults; lower vitamin D status predicted executive dysfunction with slower processing speeds, mental shifting and information updating. The good news is that vitamin D repletion helped improved cognitive function. There is a fine balance between getting too much sun and not enough; public health messages to l...imit sun exposure and reduce skin cancer risk must be balanced with maintaining adequate vitamin D levels. Supplementation with vitamin D has been found to reduce insulin resistance, a key feature of metabolic syndrome. With research showing an increased prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors; hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity and high serum triglycerides in patients with low vitamin D status. This should be a timely reminder to get your Vitamin D levels tested! #health #vitamind #naturalhealth #nutrition #naturopaths #onlinenutritionist #onlinenaturopath #brisbanenaturopath #brisbanenaturalhealth #nutritionists #brisbanenutritionist #healthyeatingtips #nutritiontips #healthynutritiontips #perpetualwellbeing

24.01.2022 Only 3% of fatigued patients demonstrate diagnosed pathology as the cause. As disease is so often not one of the causes of fatigue, our natural health Practitioners can help to alleviate this symptom by looking at other potential drivers nutrition, mitochondrial health, detoxification, thyroid, stress and immune support. By targeting these functional drivers of fatigue, our practitioners can help to optimise energy levels and improve the quality of life of these patients.

24.01.2022 A new study from Edith Cowan University (ECU) in Joondalup, WA, in Australia finds that leafy greens and other vegetables high in nitrates in particular confer significant cardiovascular benefits. #health #nutrition #perpetualwellbeing

22.01.2022 We all know someone who has a very high carbohydrate diet, and yet remains slim and relatively metabolically healthy. This sits in plain contrast with others, who with the same diet are overweight, fatigued, with elevated cholesterol and other signs of metabolic syndrome. I so often hear ITS NOT FAIR!! But, there are biological reasons for the difference, as well as treatment options to improve an individuals metabolic capacity. So how do you know if you are suffering carbohydrate intolerance and what can you do about it? #carbohydrateintolerance #foodintolerance #naturalhealth #wellbeing #perpetualwellbeing https://bit.ly/2QH7b0N

21.01.2022 The team at Perpetual Wellbeing perform a range of food intolerance testing including the IgG food intolerance test to identify foods that cause a delayed reaction. An IgG reaction can occur hours to days after exposure to the allergen; food or inhalant. This type of reaction is referred to as a delayed sensitivity reaction and is different to an IgE reaction, which occurs about the time immediately after exposure to the allergen; food or inhalant. Talk to your practitioner ...at Perpetual Wellbeing if you're suffering from unexplained reactions to foods. https://bit.ly/2NSIq12

Groundbreaking research confirms that the act of smiling can trick your mind into being more positive, simply by moving your facial muscles. https://bit.ly/2Q1Mr3m

10.01.2022 Are you struggling with insomnia or regularly having difficulties falling asleep? Contact the team at Perpetual Wellbeing to discuss a melatonin deficiency test. It assesses two major causes for insomnia: imbalances in melatonin, and cortisol. Melatonin is a peptide hormone produced by the pineal gland which helps to control normal sleep patterns. Deficiencies of this hormone can lead to insomnia; however melatonin supplementation can effectively treat this problem if diagnosed correctly. #insomnia #sleep #health #wellbeing #perpetualwellbeing https://bit.ly/2qw42Yt

10.01.2022 Vitamin D is vital for maintaining healthy bones and muscles. There is also some evidence that it may help protect against viral respiratory infections and play a regulatory role in the bodys immune response. This has led to a proposal that taking vitamin D supplements could help prevent or even treat COVID-19, the primarily respiratory disease caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2. While no clinical trials have tested the vitamins efficacy as a treatment or a preventive measure, ...several studies have found an association between low levels of vitamin D and COVID-19. However, a review of five of these studies by the U.K.s National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), which compiles guidelines on best practices, concludes that the studies provide no evidence that vitamin D levels influence the risk of getting COVID-19 or dying as a result. https://bit.ly/38RbwGZ #COVID19 #vitamind #health #nutrition #wellbeing #perpetualwellbeing

10.01.2022 Thyroid abnormalities are one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting millions worldwide. Thyroid hormones are well known for their role in basal metabolic rate, development and growth. Hypothyroidism affects approximately 4-5% of the population whilst estimates for hyperthyroidism are 0.4-2%. Find out more about the role of the thyroid and book an online consultation or a face to face appointment at our Brisbane or Graceville clinics with one of our naturopaths ...and let us help you understand if thyroid abnormality is an underlying cause of your health issues. #thyroid #hypothyroidism #hyperthyroidism #health #naturalhealth #perpetualwellbeing https://bit.ly/2tIvaF0

09.01.2022 Our bodies have several mechanisms to protect against toxins, such as physical barriers, digestive secretions, immune surveillance and enzyme systems that process toxins for excretion via sweat, breath, urine and bile or faeces. 70% of our immune system is located around the digestive system. In a normal healthy person, the small intestine behaves like a selective sieve, allowing only the breakdown products of digestion into the bloodstream. But sometimes our system becomes ...overwhelmed and the toxins leak into our bloodstream. So what causes leaky gut, as it is known, or to give it the official name, intestinal permeability? What are the benefits of a healthy digestive system and why is it so important to our overall health? #leakygut #digestivehealth #nutrition #health #wellbeing #perpetualwellbeing https://bit.ly/2P6qcMr

07.01.2022 Nothing gets under your skin quite like the relentless irritation of eczema. With its hallmark feature of itchy and inflamed red patches, this common condition often flares in response to otherwise harmless triggers, such as food proteins, animal dander and environmental allergens like pollens. Your skin may even react to a rise in body temperature (e.g. from exercise) or stress. What you may not know is that eczema is more than just skin-deep; often, its a sign of an imbal...ance at a deeper level, reflecting an overactive immune system and poor gut health. This blog by our friends at Metagenics explores how your immune system and gut affect your symptoms. https://bit.ly/2OGCfwy #eczema #skinhealth #naturalhealth #perpetualwellbeing

05.01.2022 Today is World Thyroid Day but do you know what your thyroid actually does? The thyroid has just one job, however, it is one of the most important jobs for the body to function properly. It makes hormones that regulate the energy level, metabolism, growth, and reproduction of every cell of your body. That means your brain, heart, lungs, liver, skin, tissues and other body parts depend on your thyroid to stay powered up and active, and to remain healthy by generating new cel...ls to replace old ones. Abnormalities with the thyroid gland are one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting millions worldwide. The hormones produced by this gland interact with receptors found in the nucleus of every cell of the body and this interaction leads to the turning on and off of many genes and ultimately to the modification of many bodily functions. Therefore, it is understandable that abnormalities in the level of these hormones can lead to a diverse array of symptoms involving the heart, brain, skin and reproductive systems. Standard thyroid function tests may not always get to the bottom of any issues. Book an appointment with one of our practitioners and let's make sure your thyroid is functioning properly.
