Welcome to my new followers from all around the ...

Aug 8

Welcome to my new followers from all around the globe.

I started today at 7.30am with an early talk in Sydney, Canada, US, Singapore and Taiwan presenting the latest science on Food & Mood, followed by an afternoon session on the same topic to the UK and California.

Nutritional Psychiatry is an emerging area of science that is truly fascinating and very much needed right now. With 67% of UK diets coming from processed and ultra processed foods leading to a plethora of nutrient deficiences and 1 in 6 teenagers with a diagnosed mental health condition, we really need to all be aware of this important topic.

I covered the latest scientific studies on food & mood, the importance of nourishing the gut microbiome, how the gut:brain axis impacts our sleep and all the key nutrients and lifestyle factors that can help us create more of those important happy chemicals Serotonin, Dopamine and calming Gaba.

Here at the clinic we offer a 6 week improve your mood programme if you are interested, do get in touch.

Would you be interested to learn more about our corporate wellness programme? We offer a wide range of talks on a host of nutrition and wellness topics so DM me for more info.

Aug 1

A recent review from one of our lovely clients;

“I have had raised cholesterol for years and recently it jumped up even higher, so my GP advised me to go on Statins. I had reservations about taking them as I know they can make you achey and tired and I’m not keen to take more medications.

I was recommended to see a nutritionist as an alternative and within 3 months of working with the Nutrition Guru my cholesterol in now within the normal range. I haven’t had normal cholesterol levels since I was 30 and I’m now 58. I was suffering from bloating, hair loss and general fatigue and unbelievably all of these have resolved in the same period, with the simple and easy advice and supplements I was recommended.

I have been amazed at my health transformation and cannot recommend the experts at the Nutrition Guru highly enough. I was given bespoke dietary advice that works for me and fits with my fussy eating habits”

Jul 30

Making memories in Croatia with the fam. Returned recharged and energised 😁.

First time in Croatia. It’s special! 1000 islands, 80 of which are inhabited. The best way to experience it is to travel around from island to island. The water is the clearest I’ve seen in the whole of Europe and so turquoise and the perfect temperature.

You probably know that Dubrovnik is where they filmed some of the game of thrones and Korcula felt like a film set, each island has its own unique vibe.

One of my absolute favs is Mljet which has the most stunning torquoise lakes, which we enjoyed hiking around and swimming.

The food is fresh and so delicious and really good value compared with anywhere in Europe. Tons of fresh fish, seafood and simple salads plus gelato 🍋☺️.

Go make memories in Croatia. Compared to the rest of Europe in summertime it’s much less crowded, great temperature (not sweltering 🥵), cooler in the evenings and great food. Really good value too. Total win!

I’m looking forward to visiting again one day very soon I hope. Who wants to join me? 😉

Jul 19

Making acrylamides funky! It’s actually an important topic we should all be aware of especially during BBQ season. Do you love your toast on the burnt side or meat charcoaled with crispy edges or your chips 🍟 dark and crisp? If so this is worth knowing right?

Acrylamides are basically the brown bits of over cooked foods, they are classed by the FDA as possible carcinogens.

Avoid very brown areas in food. Cook cut potato products such as frozen french fries or toast to a golden yellow color rather than a brown color. Brown areas tend to contain more acrylamide.

Some ways to avoid acrylamides include:

-limiting crisp and baked potato snack intake
-don’t store potatoes in the fridge
-try not to overbake foods
-avoid baked or fried foods with added sugar

Jul 19

A huge thanks for my lovely patient Katy for sharing her photos and story with me.

She initially presented with fatigue, bloating, rosacea, and hair loss. After some testing and tweaks in her diet alongside carefully selected supplements look at her transformation. Her initial blood tests showed low thyroid function, low ferritin (for hair), low B12, low B2 and and dysbiosis.

“Since working with Tina, I have noticed a huge difference, even in such a short space of time (2 months)! I feel cleaner and less “toxic” and my energy levels have improved. Bloating, which has been a struggle for years, has dramatically improved, as has my skin/rosacea - I very rarely have flare ups and my face is much calmer. My most recent bloods are all now in the normal range. Thank you!”

Jul 18

Eating used to be intuitive in evolutionary terms. We ate the foods that nature provided, in season, and they supplied all the nutrients our body's needed to function optimally.

The challenge comes when you are surrounded by ultra-processed, nutrient-deficient, empty calorie foods and your intuition no longer knows which way to turn.

This food is designed to be hyperpalatable or Bliss point foods. When we eat this food it triggers dopamine release and leaves us craving more meaning our waistlines expand and we gain weight.

25% of 11 year olds in the UK are currently overweight or obese. Being overweight at this age means you are much more likely to keep that weight for the rest of your life, setting you up for a lifetime of potential health issues like diabetes, cancer and heart disease.

Let’s start cooking from scratch, eating simple real food and get back in touch with intuitive eating …

Eat food, not too much, mostly plants ! ...

Eat food, not too much, mostly plants ! 🪴🥦🌶🍇🍊- Michael Pollen

Plants really do protect us from disease!

Phytochemicals, also called phytonutrients, are helpful compounds found in plant foods. They may help prevent chronic diseases, including cancer.

These can be found in vegetables, fruits, beans, grains, nuts and seeds. But the type and amount of phytochemicals in different plants varies. No single plant food can protect you from disease. You can get the most protection by eating a variety of plant foods, sim to eat the rainbow 🌈.

So many of us eat the same foods every week or even every day. A good place to start to add diversity is to add one new fruit or veg to your weekly shop, add herbs and spices to meals, buy bagged salads or mixed pulses to get that variety and diversity into your diet.

Potential benefits of phytochemicals include:

* Improving our mood
* Strengthening the immune system
* Reducing inflammation
* Preventing DNA damage and helping DNA repair
* Slowing cancer cell growth
* Regulating hormones
* Preventing damaged cells from reproducing
* Improving gut health
* Making our skin glow

Among the phytochemicals as potentially providing health benefits are polyphenols, flavonoids, isoflavonoids, anthocyanidins, phytoestrogens, terpenoids, carotenoids, limonoids, phytosterols, glucosinolates, and fibres.

Do you have any tips to share with us on how you get more fruit and veg in your diet?

See the link in my bio for my ebook in the bio on how to improve your diet and include more plants easily every day.

Jul 12

One of the tests I regularly use in our clinic is the Adrenal Stress Test, a simple test that shows us exactly how much cortisol you are pumping out and how its impacting your health, sleep, waistline, poor digestion, ageing and stress levels. Due to our modern western busy switched on lifestyles we find so many people have high stress levels which is not healthful.

Today I’m hosting corporate wellness talks about managing stress and resilience. One of the topics in my talk is how to improve your stress resilience looking specifically at toning the vagus nerve with a wonderful and super easy products @mysensate.

Stress resilience is our body’s ability to recognize a challenging situation and choose a positive way to respond to it. It means that the body will return to a state of equilibrium faster. By using Sensate, you can tone your vagus nerve which will help regulate your nervous system. You can measure the function of your vagus nerve by measuring your heart rate variability (HRV). A good HRV result assumes good vagal tone, so your nervous system will be more flexible and return to equilibrium faster after stress.

An Innovation in Stress Management

Developed by physicians and tested in clinic, Sensate uses infrasonic therapy to help your body's nervous system recover from daily stresses.

A groundbreaking innovation in wellness technology, Sensate uses the natural power of sonic resonance to calm your body’s nervous system, providing immediate relief and long-term benefits from regular use.

Calm Your Nerves

Feel better in as few as ten minutes per day

Improve Stress Resilience

To cope with whatever life throws at you

Increase Heart Rate Variability -
A known biomarker of health and longevity

So many of my clients find it very helpful and so calming.

May 18

I’ve had a number of questions on energy drinks and the caffeine content of certain drinks.

Alarmingly something like Monster has a whopping 54g of sugar that’s double the recommended amount of sugar for an adult for a day and 160g of caffeine. When combined with stimulant ingredients such as guarana or ginkgo Biloba that can alter the caffeine’s effects making it much more powerful. It can act on our whole central nervous system leaving us anxious, wired, unable to concentrate, affect our mood, create blood sugar imbalances leaving us exhausted after that initial burst of energy too.

May 16

It’s always so uplifting and motivating when I receive feedback from my patients, corporate clients and schools.

As I’m sure you know I really do love my work and I’m so passionate about sharing my 20 years worth of knowledge and expertise with the widest possible audiences.

The world of Nutrition constantly changes and one of the reasons I love my job as much as I do, is that it includes a lifetime of learning and updating my knowledge. Since I graduated way back in early 2000, I have seen so many dietary fads come and go and so many people spending their lives dieting, restricting and fearful of food.

My goal has always been to share evidence based sensible, sound, practical, sustainable advice about how we can thrive and feel fantastic, optimising our health and well-being, achieving a healthy weight and working on disease prevention through diet and lifestyle interventions while really enjoying food 😁. We can even now turn back our ageing with these bespoke health programmes . This is measurable through simple testing called @glycanage.

In addition to this test, we also offer the very latest health tests including DNA/genetics, gut health, thyroid, adrenal stress tests, hormone tests and much more. I’m thrilled to head up my team of nutrition experts who are all so knowledgeable and as passionate as I am.

In terms of talks I offer talks on a wide range of health topics for all age groups including;

Menopause
Sleep
Skin
Burnout
Health optimisation
Anti ageing/longevity
Immunity

Please do share or tag someone who may appreciate a wellness talk or workshop in their workplace or school.

May 11

Brown miso is packed with probiotics for the gut, I got some questions asking what to do with it. This is a lovely simple dish to try. Serve with a side of kimchi for extra gut bacteria 🦠.

Let me know how you enjoy it 😘

Miso brown rice & broccoli salad with fiery prawns.

Ingredients
* 100g brown basmati rice
* 140g ready-shelled frozen edamame beans
* 140g broccoli (about ½ a head), broken into florets
* 1 tbsp brown miso paste
* ½ tsp finely grated fresh ginger
* 1 tbsp rice vinegar
* ½ tbsp clear honey
* 2 tsp sesame oil
* 2 tsp vegetable oil
* 3 garlic cloves , thinly sliced
* 1 red chilli , thinly sliced
* 200g raw shelled prawn
* 2 spring onions , finely sliced
* large pack coriander , roughly chopped

Method
* STEP 1Cook the rice following pack instructions, adding the edamame beans for the last 3 mins of cooking. Drain well. 
* STEP 2Meanwhile, steam the broccoli for 4-5 mins until tender. Run under very cold water, drain thoroughly and pat dry. In a small bowl, mix the miso, ginger, vinegar, honey, sesame oil and seasoning. 
* STEP 3Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add the garlic and half the chilli and cook gently for a couple of mins, taking care not to burn. Throw in the prawns, lots of black pepper and a pinch of salt. Turn up the heat and cook for a few mins until the prawns are cooked through. Toss the miso dressing with the cooked rice, adding the spring onions, coriander and broccoli. Season and stir together. Spoon the spicy prawns on top, scatter over the remaining chilli and serve.

May 10

Walnuts look like miniature brains and they really do help our brains too, helping with the production of over 20 neurotransmitters - our brains chemical messengers to optimise brain function and mood.

I start every day with a around 6 king walnuts to optimise my brain health, improve my skin texture and give me a glow with the added benefit of its cardiovascular protective benefits. Here’s why!

Walnuts: This powerful brain food improves cognitive function and can even reduce memory loss. You palm sized handful for maximum effect. Packed with omega 3 its nourishing and anti-inflammatory for the skin too.

Nuts
Nuts are great for your body full stop. Nuts and seeds are powerhouses of antioxidant vitamin E and lots of minerals, they are also rich with essential oils and amino acids that aid your focus. Just a palm size handful a day of unsalted mixed nuts will do the job.

Aim for the unsalted ones and a portion is a flat sized palm sized amount.

If you can’t eat nuts seeds have very similar benefits so enjoy those, add them to smoothies, oats, salads, fish toppings, to muffins, cookies or energy balls.

Enjoy - great for cardiovascular health and skin health too.

We want to provide stable constant fuel to the brain so to stay in the Energy zone it’s all about balancing the plate with slow release carbs, protein and some added fats to give that constant supply of glucose to the brain for attention, focus, improved concentration, improved mood, motivation.

As you can see here this combination of fibre, protein and fats gives the longest slow release of energy.

Good luck kiddos 💪

In my last video I discussed aiming for 30 ...

May 8

In my last video I discussed aiming for 30 different plants a week. This is how it could look.

Why? The more diverse plant foods we feed our gut microbes, the more diverse they become and the more ‘skills’ they have to…
* Train our immune cells.
* Increase our resilience to infection.
* Strengthen our gut barrier.
* Communicate with our brain.
* Balance our blood sugar, lower blood fats and help prevent against many diseases.

So what counts? All of your fruits, vege, wholegrains, legumes (beans and pulses), nuts and seeds, herbs and spices. 1 portion per point, with herbs and spices getting 1/4 point each.

Here’s what 30 plant points can actually look like:
VEGE – Tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, pepper, sweetcorn, spinach, potato, onion, peas, carrot.

FRUIT – Grapes, apricot, strawberries, watermelon, blueberries, raspberries, apple, banana, orange, kiwi.

GRAINS – Oats, brown rice, quinoa, buckwheat, wholewheat flour.

LEGUMES, NUTS & SEEDS – Chickpeas, lentils, tinned beans, pack of seeds, pack of nuts (mixed for extra points!).

My other tips for getting in more plants would be to incorporate pre-packaged vegetables, such as stir fry mixes, mixed salad leaves or five grain pouches. Each mix offers a variety of vegetables.

Also adding toppings to the meals you already enjoy so you can increase your plant intake without having to make a huge change to your diet. Sprinkle seeds onto yoghurt or salads or adding fresh basil and coriander to dishes is a great way to start.

Do you manage this already?

Thyme Steam Inhalation for Cough

Apr 30

Thyme Steam Inhalation for Cough

Thyme helps fight respiratory infections and is a natural expectorant that serves as an antiseptic and helps expulse mucus. It's also good for soothing coughs and fighting nasal congestion. It’s great for bronchitis and covid coughs too.

This is a wonderful combination however you can just use fresh thyme.

INGREDIENTS

* 1 pint water
* 1 tsp thyme
* 1 tsp oregano
* 1 tsp mint
* 1 tsp eucalyptus leaf (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

* Boil water in a large pot or tea kettle.
* Place herbs in a large stock pot and pour boiling water over herbs.
* Lean head over pot with herbs and water (it should be steaming).
* Cover head with a towel to seal in the steam from the pot.

Thyme can be extremely helpful for sore throats as it is antimicrobial. Steep 1-2 teaspoons fresh thyme to make your own tea.

It’s also great for helping skin conditions such as acne and rosacea as well as for treating seasonal allergies. Would you like me to tell you about that next time?

Tag a friend who would benefit from a thyme inhalation or thyme tea.

Lots of joy already from my veggie patch 😊🌱🌱🌱

Here’s an update. So much to learn so keep the tips coming.

Oh I remember the other edible flower is borage 😃.

Would love to know why it’s essential to grow flowers alongside the veggies so do let me know, and why I need straw around the 🍓 strawberries?

Have a great weekend and tag a friend who knows about growing stuff for me please ☺️. All your tips are so helpful.

P.s. I’m sending out a newsletter this week so make sure you subscribe on my website - the links in the bio.

See stories for my veggie patch pics and grow bags.

Apr 26

A whole week of inspiring and empowering young people to understand the power of nourishing themselves, not only from food but all elements of self care. That’s my agenda this week and working with my clients too.

I feel blessed to do the work I do 😊.

Young people are our future - so many health issues can be prevented through understanding how food, sleep, alcohol, caffeine and sugar impacts how we feel, our mental and physical health, energy levels and so on. Changing behaviours can change the health landscape for their future.

I plan to grow beans and sweetpeas on the wigwams too, oh and strawberries too but haven’t bought them yet.

Apr 20

Strawberries have been found to have the highest levels of pesticides.

If you don’t want to buy a spray like this you can use baking soda or vinegar too.

Add one teaspoon of baking soda to four cups of water, and soak your strawberries in a large bowl for five minutes. Then rinse your strawberries with cold running water and pat them dry.

Another effective way to clean pesticide residue off of strawberries is to submerge them in a vinegar bath. In a bowl, mix four parts water with one part white vinegar, then let the strawberries soak in the bowl for 20 minutes. Rinse the strawberries thoroughly with fresh cold water to clean off the vinegar.
