23.01.2022 SKIN HEALTH // Did you know that your skin has it's own microbiome? Yep that' s right! What we usually only reserve for digestive talk, our skin has it's own microbiome that helps to maintain it's function (and appearance!). The bacteria that lives on our skin can help to maintain healthy immune function of the skin as well as helping to keep pathogenic bacteria or bad bacteria out. When it comes to eczema we can often see an imbalance of this bacteria and this ...can also occur in conditions like acne as well. So when we are looking at factors that effect your skin, we are always taking into consideration your skins microbiome, and what effect this might be having on your skin. So what can effect your skin's microbiome? No surprise that the products you apply topically can have a big impact on your skins microbiome, so ensuring that the products your'e using are appropriate for you and your skin type is vital. We like to keep it simple here at The Sana Co but heading to a qualified dermal therapist will be able to give you a more personalised skin care program. Our internal gut bacteria can also influence our skins microbiome, so pump up the probiotic foods (think fermented foods like kombucha, sauerkraut, miso etc) and your fibre to help promote good gut health. Want to learn more about how to look after your skin with a holistic perspective? @teresaoddinaturopath is our resident skin specialist and is available for consultation Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. To book head to our website or call the clinic on 52982642. See more

15.01.2022 Insulin can be a tricky one! You may be thinking diabetes, and you would be correct, but insulin levels can be elevated enough to cause symptoms like weight gain, acne, hormone irregularities and fatigue without being high enough to be classified as diabetic or pre-diabetic. Testing this is the only way to get a clear picture, and once we know its high its relatively straight forward to bring it down through a combination of diet and lifestyle alterations and key supplements.

14.01.2022 Cortisol is produced by our adrenal glads in repossess to consistent low grade stress. This is how stress impacts your health. If you have trouble to grasp the concept of managing stress, how about you think about managing your cortisol instead.

10.01.2022 We love a good before and after! @teresaoddinaturopath and @botanicalsbyluxe power combination achieved these amazing results for this client. We love the combined internal and external approach

09.01.2022 The liver is a complex and intricate organ, that we often talk about in terms of detoxification, but how many people actually understand what we mean when we say detoxification. Sure, its the removal of toxins from our body, but the liver is just one aspect of this. It is a big part of it, don't get me wrong, but just one part. Part 1. What we put into and onto our bodies is a great place to start because this 'toxic load' as we refer to it will help ...to dictate how your body can cope over time with these toxins. If you have a high toxic load, chances are you'r liver and bodily systems will struggle with processing the large load long term. Keeping your exposure to these compounds minimal will help to protect the livers detox capacities and help to maintain good health long term. Part 2. The liver. Now the liver has 2 phases of detoxification, and both must be working to ensure optimal detoxication occurs. These pathways rely on numerous nutrients and amino acids to function and can also be impacted by genetics. Having a practitioner that understands the intricate pathways of the liver and can focus on which one isnt working optimally is the best way to improve liver detoxification. Part 3. Elimination. This is THE MOST IMPORTANT PART of detoxification. Because at the end of the day, if we cant eliminate those toxins, even if they are less toxic than when they entered the body, then whats the point? When we talk about elimination we are referring to generally our kidney and bowels. our bowels in particular play a massive role in waste removal, so if its not working properly, then we will find these toxins can circulate our body longer and continue to cause damage. So work backwards when looking at detoxication, are your bowels working well and clearing wastes properly? Is your liver breaking those toxins down efficiently? And how much of a toxic load is your body under? #naturopath #pcos #ibs #fodmap #endo #fertility #thyroid #hashimotos #acne #eczema #wellness #naturalhealth #geelong #detox

08.01.2022 REPOST via @teresaoddinaturopath DRY SKIN A skin complaint that effects so many people, particularly in winter! Here are my top reasons for it:... Low vitamin D (yes this again ) Dehydration - every 1 shot of coffee dehydrates your body by 500ml water, so factor this in also Low dietary fat or omega 3's Underactive thyroid Skin pH is off, look into getting a good skincare routine. This can be effected in winter due to change in environments like cold air, heaters etc. See more
