  • Copper: The Key Mineral For Emotional, Hormonal & Mental Health

    copper excess

    Copper is an extremely under-estimated mineral in terms of its impact on our health and having it in proper balance can have dramatic consequences. Treatment of copper excess in children can be quite fast, however in adults there is no quick fix and clearing excess copper to restore optimal health requires diligence, commitment and a firm desire for wellness. I will go as far as to say that this is one of the trickiest imbalances facing our health today, and one with the biggest health benefits once rectified.

    gut and mood, nutritionist sydney

    So you’re drinking green smoothies and kombucha, avoiding gluten and maybe dairy and trying to ‘quit sugar’. You seem to be eating all the right things, but you’re not achieving your weight goals or seeing changes in energy and positive outlook. Why?

  • Understanding Food Intolerances

    Understanding food intolerances

    Whilst allergic reactions to such foods are often obvious and get diagnosed quickly, food intolerances are not as easy to diagnose and are often missed. Food intolerances are responsible for vague symptoms like headaches, behaviour changes such as anxiety/depression, digestive symptoms like IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), aches and pains (including arthritis type symptoms), reflux and indigestion, inability to lose weight and many others seemingly unrelated symptoms.

    The Real Reasons Your IRON is Low

    Iron deficiency is endemic in our society, especially among women and children. It plagues us on a daily basis because without adequate iron in our system, we simply cannot generate enough oxygen for energy production. Low concentration, low mood, low energy....sound familiar?

  • Why and How I Quit Coffee

    quitting coffee Why and How I Quit Coffee

    So I thought I should write a book 'I Quit Coffee'! It would be a best seller, for sure, just like the 'I quit sugar' by Sarah Wilson. Except I don't think it would sell as well. Not at all. Unfortunately..... Because we are all completely on board with the concept of 'sugar is bad for you' and more and more people are trying to beat their sugar addictions. There is unanimous agreement that sugar is not helpful. However, there is no such consensus on coffee. In fact, most people believe that coffee is good for you. Great in fact! It gives you energy, it has antioxidants and some studies show it can even help you lose weight!! (those I think most definitely funded by the coffee

  • Getting your meat right

    Grass fed meat

    I've recently heard an interview with Denise Minger, the author of what is no-doubt going to be a controversial book called 'Death by Food Pyramid'. She was discussing the myriad of health issues we are facing as a society today and the numerous mistakes that we have and are making by following the standard food pyramid. Amongst these is which meats we eat and to use her words, 'we don't get our meat right!' I think she is quite spot on and in all the years of research I've done on the subject, I can say I totally agree. Here are the key 'issues' I believe that surround our meat consumption and what to do about it. Issue 1: We eat meat from animals that are fed

  • How to Obtain Optimal Calcium Levels with Food

    foods high in calcium

    We all know that dairy (full fat, raw and grass fed is the best) contains large quantities of calcium. The dairy industry has ensured over the last few decades that dairy is pretty much perceived as the ONLY sources of calcium, which is far from the truth. It's also firmly drummed in the message that calcium is the most important mineral for bone health It is not. Many other factors are vital to ensure bone health is optimal: adequate magnesium intake (richest sources are vegetables, fruit, nuts & seeds) adequate vitamin D and K levels Without vitamin D, calcium doesn't properly mineralise bones. We also want our calcium to actually go to our bones and teeth, not soft tissues like breasts (calcification), kidneys (stones) and muscles (pain!). What I
