24.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know it's Adopt A Greyhound month? Having a family pet has been shown to increase the diversity of the microbiome, particularly in children. If you want to change your gut health (and a greyhound's life) for the better, get on it!
23.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know that eating 2 kiwifruits per day has been shown to increase colonic transit time for those with IBS-C? #foodasmedicine
19.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know that eating shellfish such as oysters and mussels will give you more iron than red meat? If it's fish for dinner tonight, why not throw either of these on the menu?
17.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know that increasing the levels of the "happy neurotransmitter" serotonin in the gut can increase intestinal motility? If you have a slow digestive transit time, there may be an effect on your mental health, due to the fact that most of the serotonin in the body is made in the gut! There are loads of diet changes you can make to increase your serotonin levels without medication - contact me to find out how!
17.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know that if you cook your fermented foods, this destroys the probiotic bacteria? Make sure that if you're buying pre-made ferments that the label says they're RAW and UNPASTEURISED. If you can't find these words on the label, put it back and consider fermenting your own food and drink. It's cheap and easy!
10.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know that raw cacao is full of polyphenols, which have a prebiotic action in the gut? Just one more reason to add this delicious superfood to your daily diet!
09.01.2022 Love this article from Very Well Health about 10 things to stop doing when you have IBS. Keep in mind, though, that one of the recommendations is to stop checking every bowel movement. I strongly encourage you to check every one you have - it is an ESSENTIAL measure of your health and if you're a patient of mine, I will definitely be asking you about your I'll be linking in the comments for all the info you'll ever need to know about what to look for, when you need to worry and when you don't.
08.01.2022 Love this short and sweet list of tips to boost fibre intake for all you keto fans out there. Fibre is such an essential part of maintaining a healthy gut, and if keto isn't done right, it can be notorious for reducing the variety of healthy bacteria we have in our digestive system. Eat up!
04.01.2022 VEGAN BANANA BREAD I've often referred to banana bread as "banana cake" due to all the sugar that most banana breads contain. Today I had some neglected bananas I couldn't bear to feed to my balcony worm bin - they were overripe but they still had so much potential!... Enter this #veganbananabread recipe from "oh she glows": https://ohsheglows.com/2016/10/07/vegan-banana-bread/ I left out all the sugar and just added a small glug of maple syrup, but next time I do this, I won't even use that - the banana really does cover the sweetness beautifully on its own. Next time you're thinking about making your fruit bowl #zerowaste, think about whether you need to add sugar to something that's already naturally sweet.
03.01.2022 You know what I love? I love it when government nutritional policy and education is evidence based. Sign this petition to ensure the health star rating gets it right on cooking oil - olive oil is proven to be far superior in every way to refined vegetable oil. It protects against heart disease and is brimming with amazing antioxidants to support good health. Comparing this with refined vegetable oils, which are filled with trans fats and actually make heart disease worse, it's hard to understand why the health star rating system is looking at rating them as healthier than olive oil.
01.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know that children have a more easily adapted microbiome than adults? This is fantastic news for kids - get their guts in good shape now and they'll be more likely to be able to retain that diversity into adulthood!
01.01.2022 #funfactfriday Did you know that the chlorine in tap water acts as an antibiotic to make sure there are no pathogens in our drinking water? To make sure it doesn't reach your gut to kill healthy bacteria there, either boil and cool your drinking water, or invest in a charcoal-based water filter.
