🌿 Thermography: A Gentle Approach to Early Detection 🌿

Thermography is a non-invasive imaging tool that uses infrared technology to detect heat patterns in the body. This makes it ideal for picking up “hot spots” that could indicate areas of inflammation, blood flow changes, or abnormal cell activity. It’s a proactive way to spot potential issues early—allowing for targeted investigation when necessary.

✨ Thermography offers a radiation-free alternative, reducing the need for yearly mammograms in some cases while still keeping your health in check.

I wanted to share my recent experience with thermography, from The Body Holiday. Thank you for offering this great testing option! I went for the full body scan by the way.

My results showed no concerns at all in my breasts, which is such a relief as I have so much breast cancer in my direct family! However, the thermography flagged something important - I need to recheck my thyroid as it was showing as a real hot spot on the scans. A few years ago, I discovered a large thyroid nodule, and while biopsies showed no malignancies, I did have symptoms of a sluggish thyroid. Thankfully, through the right diet, supplements, and lifestyle changes, I was able to resolve those symptoms at the time.

Now, it’s time to revisit my thyroid health and get the nodule re-scanned, biopsied and have a simple full thyroid test. Thermography can be such a helpful tool in flagging up things that need more investigation with no risks whatsoever.

You can get this done in the UK so do check out your local clinic or try Nyjon Eccles clinic @the.natural.doctor naturaldoctor in London to stay ahead of your health with this safe and gentle method! 🌿

📊 A £50 test can hold the key to how you can transform you and your family’s health. Here’s why an 8-12% Omega-3 Index is Key to Your Health 🧬✨

Did you know the balance of omega-3s in your body can directly impact your heart health, cognition, mental health, skin health, sleep and just about every aspect of your well-being? It is such a vitally essential nutrient that we are so commonly deficient in as we aren’t a nation of oily fish eaters.

The Omega-3 Index, which measures the percentage of EPA and DHA in your red blood cell membranes, should ideally be 8-12% for optimal health.

Here’s why this range is so important:
💓 Heart Health: Research shows that having an Omega-3 index between 8-12% significantly lowers your risk of heart disease, heart attacks, and abnormal heart rhythms. It helps keep your heart strong and healthy!
🧠 Brain Function: Omega-3s, especially DHA, are essential for brain health, cognitive function, and mental well-being. The higher the index, the better your brain works—and the lower your risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.
🛡️ Inflammation Control: Omega-3s are powerful anti-inflammatories, and an 8-12% index helps reduce the risk of chronic conditions like diabetes, arthritis, and even certain cancers.
📉 The UK Average: Unfortunately, most people in the UK have an Omega-3 index of only 4-6%, meaning many are at greater risk of cardiovascular disease and inflammation. This is largely due to the typical Western diet, which is high in omega-6 and low in omega-3s.
✨ Get Tested with OmegaQuant: A simple OmegaQuant test can tell you your current Omega-3 index, giving you the knowledge to make the right changes in your diet or supplements and boost your index to the 8-12% range.

Take control of your health today—get tested and adjust your omega-3 intake to protect your heart, brain, and body! 🧠💓

I should say I’ve never tasted bark 🤣 but if I had then I think this is what it would taste like, a bit woody.

Sadly nutrient deficiencies are commonplace creating so many symptoms of poor health, why? Depleted soil quality, busy stressful lives require more nutrition than ever, pollution, exposure to toxins, poor digestion, UPFs …

So here’s why I’m taking this daily;

Shilajit is primarily found in the high mountain ranges of the Himalayas, Altai, Tibet, and the Caucasus Mountains. It’s a sticky, tar-like substance that oozes out of rocks during the summer when the heat softens the earth. It is formed over centuries by the decomposition of plant matter and minerals under specific geological conditions. It is an ancient mineral and fulvic acid rich remedy that’s been used for centuries to improve health and help reduce symptoms of ageing.

✨ Boosts Energy & Vitality: Shilajit is known for enhancing energy levels by improving mitochondrial function, which helps your cells produce more energy. Boosting energy levels naturally.

✨ Supports Cognitive Health: Shilajit may improve brain function, memory, and clarity, making it a natural brain booster that helps protect against age-related cognitive decline.

✨ Promotes Healthy Skin & Hair: With its rich antioxidant content, Shilajit fights free radicals that cause skin ageing, helping maintain a youthful glow and prevent grey hair.

✨ Improves Bone Health: Rich in minerals, Shilajit supports bone strength, which becomes even more important as we age. It also aids joint health and flexibility.

✨ Balances Hormones: Shilajit helps regulate hormones, reducing symptoms related to ageing such as low testosterone, helping to restore vitality and well-being.

✨ Enhances Immune Function: Its anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties help keep your body strong and resilient as you age.

Whether you’re looking to boost your energy, support brain health, or slow down the signs of ageing, Shilajit might be your secret weapon! 💪✨

Here I’m discussing Geroprotection strategies and how we use the @glycanage test to see our biological age compared with our chronological age.

I recommend @prolon to anyone who would like to try a longer fast and here’s some of the benefits of extended fasts using the ‘fasting mimicking diet’ - FMD.

A recent study published in Nature Communications showed that ProLon’s Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD) can help reduce biological age by an average of 2.5 years. This study, led by researchers from the USC Longevity Institute, involved participants who completed three cycles of ProLon over three consecutive months. The biological age reduction was measured using a phenotypic score developed in collaboration with Yale University, which evaluates cellular function and metabolic markers.

The study found significant improvements in metabolic health, including decreased insulin resistance and reduced liver fat, which contribute to an overall decrease in biological age. This suggests that ProLon not only helps with short-term health benefits but also offers potential long-term anti-aging effects by triggering cellular rejuvenation processes such as autophagy.

Have you tried the @glycanage test or used Prolon before? Would you like a discount code for these, if so just DM me.

If you are interested in reversing your ageing process or want to address some niggling health issues do get in touch and we can support you with your health goals.

This definitely brought a smile to my face and made me chuckle!

So today was the first day back at school for so many and it was a pleasure to be talking at @latymerupperschool to the year 8s. Although some days don’t go quite according to plan 😅. The time of the talk was changed last minute, so I rushed there, in the rain with no umbrella and arrived with just a couple of minutes to set up, so was in a bit of a fluster. We all have those days when the words just don’t come out quite right, and sometimes we might even invent a new word or two—like “nurturingness.” But I think the heart of what we’re saying shines through, right?

My point is to build healthy habits, it all starts with cultivating a kind, loving, and nurturing relationship with ourselves. That’s exactly why I wrote my book and developed my education programme, inspired by the six years I spent working with teenagers at a leading addiction clinic helping support teenagers with eating disorders, drug and alcohol issues. Those experiences showed me just how crucial it is to support and guide our young people with care and compassion.

If you want to learn more then please do check out my book which supports my schools education programme- Eat Well & Feel Great - The Teenagers Guide to Nutrition & Health (Bloomsbury publishing), suitable for parents, teens 11-22 years, teachers and carers available on Amazon now. Link in bio …

I’ve been using a Corebelt by @compex_uk for a while now, and I’ve got to say, it’s been a game-changer for my ab routine. But before I get into that, let’s talk about why abs are really made in the kitchen. You can do crunches and planks all day long, but if you’re not eating right, those abs will stay hidden under a layer of belly fat. It’s all about eating a balanced diet with lean proteins, veggies, and healthy fats—basically, fueling your body with the good stuff that helps burn fat and reveal muscle.

So what is the Corebelt and why do I like it? Well it’s like having a serious Abs workout when you aren’t even working out. It uses gentle electrical pulses to stimulate your abs, giving them a workout even when you’re just sitting at my computer, cooking or out on a walk. I’ve found it’s a great addition to my routine, especially on those days when I want to give my core a little extra attention without doing another set of crunches. It’s not a magic fix, but when combined with a clean diet and regular exercise, it really helps tone and define those muscles. As an added bonus it gives you a gentle lower back massage too 😄. So if you’re looking to take your ab game to the next level, give it a try!

I’ve organised a discount code for you to get 10% off use: TINACOMPEX at checkout from www.compex.com.

Have you tried EMS workouts? How did you find it? I’m interested to hear from you.

It’s the Compex Corebelt 5.0 btw 😘

If you’re dreaming of a getaway that combines relaxation with a ton of fun activities, @thebodyholiday in St. Lucia should be at the top of your list. This place has everything you could want—think one of the most gorgeous beaches with crystal-clear water, endless activities (including scuba and water sports), and daily inclusive spa treatments that include amazing massages, facials and body wraps.

This was my third time there, and somehow, every visit feels like a brand-new adventure. It’s like stepping into a truly happy little village where everyone including all the staff chats to you and are so friendly. I’ve never been anywhere like it - it’s really so special in that way. The resort has five fabulous dining spots, but the treehouse organic dining experience is something else. You even get to tour their vegetable garden, which is such a cool touch discussing how food is their medicine. Normally I get really fed up with hotel food but you can enjoy really healthy farm to fork eating there which I love.

I thank everyone that attended my talks, cookery demos, wellness lunches and for @thebodyholiday for inviting me to be their resident expert presenter for August.

Evenings are a blast, with a communal dining option where you can hang out with other guests and enjoy some great entertainment. I particularly loved the Friday sunset cruise—it was pure magic watching the sun dip into the ocean while enjoying the local rum punch and some Caribbean dancing.

But what really makes this place special are the people. I made some lifelong friends during my stay, and I can honestly say that a piece of my heart is still in St. Lucia. The BodyHoliday isn’t just a vacation spot; it’s a place where memories are made. The resort is so unusual in that it has one of the highest return and repeat visitor numbers of any hotel in the world. People return year after year as it’s so so special and situated on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world 🌴🌞🌅.

I’ve returned heart full, feeling so well nourished, glowing, rested, revitalised having had the happiest of times.

The power of wild Blueberries! 🫐

Food as Medicine - think improved memory , mood, cognition, anti-ageing and disease prevention just by including this super berry.

You want to protect your brain against ageing? Think blueberries!

Blue fruit contains many brain-friendly, neuroprotective substances like anthocyanidins, which have powerful health effects. Blueberries can reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and slow down brain aging in general.

Blueberries are associated with a reduced risk of heart attacks and lower blood pressure, and animal studies show that blueberries added to the diet show a considerable reduction in cardiovascular disease. A study with more than 120,000 participants showed that a handful of blueberries per day can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes.

Studies in teenagers have shown a daily smoothie with wild blueberry powder for just 30 days improved memory and mood in teens with low moods.

Blueberries can protect DNA against damage, even against strong cosmic radiation, as studies have shown. That’s why NASA even studied blueberry intake to protect the DNA against cosmic radiation for their astronauts in space.

I try to include dark berries in my daily diet in smoothies, overnight oats, energy balls, or just served with Greek yogurt. You can buy dehydrated organic wild blueberry powder or as dried berries like this, or as frozen berries no need to buy fresh as they can be so expensive.

What’s your favourite way to incorporate berries?

I get so many questions about my ‘Go to’ supplements. So here’s my first choice in multi vitamin and minerals, fish oil, joint, collagen, cognition, menopause and kids/teens formulas …

Nutrient deficiencies are just so prevalent and negatively impact every aspect of our health, energy, immunity, cognition, sleep & more. Studies do indicate most us will benefit from taking a high quality nutrient formula with minerals and targeted vitamins and bio actives as collagen or CoQ10. If you take a statin, always take a good quality CoQ10. Why? Statins reduce our CoQ10 levels and can increase side effects of statins such as muscle aches & lethargy.

My first choice is @reviveactive_uk products. These are more than just supplements—they’re super formulas designed to deliver real results.

What makes them stand out? Well @reviveactive_uk uses only the finest, purest ingredients, meticulously sourced and tested to ensure they meet the highest standards. No fillers or nasties!

But it’s not just about what’s in them; it’s about how well your body can use it. Revive Active’s products are crafted for maximum bioavailability, meaning your body can absorb and utilise every single nutrient effectively. You’re not just taking a supplement—you’re fuelling your body with the essentials it craves.

They are so easy to take, whether you’re at home or on the go. No fuss, no hassle—just mix, drink, and go on with your day, knowing you’re giving your body the support it needs.

Each formula is a powerhouse of nutrients, carefully balanced to work together, delivering a wide range of benefits. With Revive Active, you’re not just supplementing; you’re supercharging your health.

Check out their website to see the full range. I enjoy the Revive Active, award winning Beauty Collagen & Menopause formulas and Omega 3 every day to optimise my health, skin, joints and cognition every day. The kids and teens range are fantastic too.

What makes them stand out? Well @reviveactive_uk uses only the finest, purest ingredients, meticulously sourced and tested to ensure they meet the highest standards. No fillers or nasties!

But it’s not just about what’s in them; it’s about how well your body can use it. Revive Active’s products are crafted for maximum bioavailability, meaning your body can absorb and utilise every single nutrient effectively. You’re not just taking a supplement—you’re fuelling your body with the essentials it craves.

They are so easy to take, whether you’re at home or on the go. No fuss, no hassle—just mix, drink, and go on with your day, knowing you’re giving your body the support it needs.

Each formula is a powerhouse of nutrients, carefully balanced to work together, delivering a wide range of benefits. With Revive Active, you’re not just supplementing; you’re supercharging your health.

Check out their website to see the full range. I enjoy the Revive Active, award winning Beauty Collagen & Menopause formulas and Omega 3 every day to optimise my health, skin, joints and cognition every day. The kids and teens range are fantastic too.

🩺 Talking about Metabolic Health and Metabolic Flexibility yesterday here @thebodyholiday.

Here are a few tips ideas on how to maintain low glucose and prevent insulin spikes 🍽️

Why? Managing blood glucose levels is essential for overall health, whether you are looking to reduce your waist line, optimise energy, improve sleep quality, improve skin health, improve mood and prevent diseases such as diabetes, obesity or CVD. This is one of the first steps we use when we are looking to turn back the clock and improve our biological age (cellular ageing). Here are some practical tips to help keep your glucose levels stable and avoid insulin spikes:

1. Choose Low-Glycaemic Foods: Focus on a wholefood nutrient dense diet - think Mediterranean diet with a low glycaemic index, like whole grains, leafy greens, nuts, and legumes. These foods are digested slowly, preventing rapid increases in blood sugar. Eating the veggies first, then protein, fats and carbs last has been shown to be helpful.

2. Balance Your Meals: Pair complex unrefined carbs with protein and healthy fats. This combination helps slow down carbohydrate absorption, leading to more stable blood sugar levels and helps reduce sugar cravings too.

3. Stay Active: Regular physical activity improves insulin sensitivity. Even a 30-minute walk or doing some squats in front of the TV can make a significant difference. Remember muscle is metabolically active so look to add resistance and strength training every week.

4. Monitor Your Levels: I often recommend using a Continuous Glucose Monitor for just a month to see how your body responds to food, exercise and sleep in real time. So many other things impact our glucose tolerance too including smoking, stress, poor sleep, lack of movement, caffeine, alcohol as well as food.

Small lifestyle changes can have a big impact on your health. Stay mindful of your diet and activity to keep your glucose levels in check! 🌟

I’m interested to hear what you’ve found helpful …

So I’ve been talking about a whole range of health topics here at my summer residency @thebodyholiday and talk about the benefits of various supplements. I always advocate a food first approach and discuss the power of food as medicine.

However in today’s fast-paced world, many of us are unknowingly deficient in essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. 🥗💊 Despite our best efforts to eat well, modern diets often fall short.

Why? Processed foods are everywhere, and even fresh produce has less nutritional value due to soil depletion and long transport times. 🥦 The result? We’re not getting enough of the nutrients our bodies need to thrive.

Omega-3 fatty acids, crucial for brain and heart health, are another common deficiency. With fewer people eating fatty fish regularly, and plant-based sources being less potent, many of us are missing out. 🐟💧

Stress and busy lifestyles also play a role, as they can increase nutrient needs while reducing our ability to absorb them. Combine this with common issues like poor gut health, and it’s easy to see why so many are lacking in core nutrients.

The good news? Awareness is the first step. By choosing nutrient-dense foods, supplementing wisely, and focusing on a balanced, varied diet, we can give our bodies the vital nutrients they need to perform at their best.

If you’d like more info on any of these just let me know 😘

I wanted to give you the view of the beautiful beach and you can here the waves in the background, here in St.Lucia @thebodyholiday 🌴☀️😎

Some people say there aren’t ‘Superfoods’. Well in my opinion Cocao really is a wellness powerhouse! 🌱✨ Packed with antioxidants, cocoa contains phenylethylamine, which boosts your mood by triggering those feel-good endorphins, and theobromine, a mild stimulant that enhances focus and cognition. 🧠💡

Studies show that regular cocoa consumption can support heart health by improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure, all thanks to its rich flavonoid content. 🍫Plus, those same flavonoids protect your skin from UV damage, keeping you glowing and sun-safe. 🌞

But the benefits don’t stop there—cocoa also promotes gut health by nourishing beneficial microbes, aiding digestion, and helping with appetite regulation. 🦠🍫

Loaded with essential minerals like magnesium, iron, and zinc, cocoa supports energy production, immune function, and overall vitality. 💪

So next time you indulge in some dark chocolate, remember you’re not just satisfying your sweet tooth—you’re also giving your body a serious boost!

🦷 Daily Rituals for a Healthier You:

Tongue Scraping & Oil Pulling 🌿

Want to start your day on a healthier note? Incorporating tongue scraping and oil pulling into your morning routine can make a world of difference for your oral health—and beyond!
I tried it before with just coconut oil but didn’t like the taste or sensation but these mint flavoured ones by @georganics taste great and have the added benefit of caprylic acid, limonene and menthol.

1. Tongue Scraping: Your tongue harbors bacteria, toxins, and debris that can cause bad breath and affect your overall health. By scraping your tongue every morning, you remove these harmful substances, promoting fresher breath, a better sense of taste, and a cleaner mouth.
How to: After brushing, use a tongue scraper to gently remove buildup from the back to the front of your tongue. Rinse the scraper and repeat until clean.

2. Oil Pulling: Oil pulling is an ancient practice that involves swishing oil in your mouth to reduce nasty bacteria, strengthen gums, prevent cavities and help the growth of healthy microbes 🦠 . But did you know it can also benefit your heart? Science shows a link between oral bacteria and heart health—bad bacteria can enter your bloodstream, contributing to heart disease. Oil pulling helps reduce this bacterial load, supporting both oral and cardiovascular health.
How to: Before eating or drinking, take a tsp or two of @georganics from @wearehealf and swish it around your mouth for 5-20 minutes. Spit it out into the bin and rinse with warm water to ensure nasty bacteria is removed.

Start these simple practices today and enjoy a healthier mouth, heart, and body! 🌟

This mornings Smoothie making workshop @thebodyholiday this morning 🌴☀️😎

Transform your daily smoothie into a powerhouse of nutrition with my Fab 4 formula: fibre, fat, protein, and green leafy veg! 🥤✨

Start with a fibre boost by adding frozen berries or veggies like spinach or kale. Using frozen fruit and veg keeps your smoothie cold and creamy while preserving nutrients. Go for organic whenever you can especially with strawberries as they have the highest pesticide residues.

Next, incorporate healthy fats for sustained energy. Try unsalted nut butter, live yoghurt, avocado, or a tablespoon of chia or flax seeds. These not only add creaminess but also keep you full longer.

For protein, add a scoop of your favourite protein powder, a serving of Greek yogurt, or try kefir for a gut-friendly twist. If you’re plant-based, hemp seeds or a plant-based protein powder work wonders.

When it comes to the liquid base, the choice is yours. Unsweetened nut milks, coconut water, green tea, or milk are all great options. Each adds its own unique flavour and nutrients, from electrolytes to antioxidants.

Take your smoothie to the next level with bioactive super powders like maca, matcha, cacao, or açai. Want to support stress management? Try adaptogens like ashwagandha or medicinal mushrooms like reishi.

Blend it all together, and you’ve got a nutrient-packed smoothie that fuels your body and mind. This daily ritual will help you feel vibrant and ready to tackle the day! 💪🌱

Latest read and here’s why ….

‘I believe that the discoveries in this book can change our understanding of how we store emotional experiences and in so doing, change our lives. The Emotion Code has already changed many lives around the world, and it is my hope that millions more will be led to use this simple tool to heal themselves and their loved ones.’ - Tony Robbins

In this newly revised and expanded edition of The Emotion Code, renowned holistic physician and lecturer Dr. Bradley Nelson skilfully lays bare the inner workings of the subconscious mind. He reveals how emotionally-charged events from your past can still be haunting you in the form of ‘trapped emotions’ - emotional energies that literally inhabit your body. These trapped emotions can fester in your life and body, creating pain, malfunction and eventual disease. They can also extract a heavy mental and emotional toll on you, impacting how you think, the choices that you make, and the level of success and abundance you are able to achieve. Perhaps most damaging of all, trapped emotional energies can gather around your heart, cutting off your ability to give and receive love.

The Emotion Code is a powerful and simple way to rid yourself of this unseen baggage. Dr. Nelson’s method gives you the tools to identify and release the trapped emotions in your life, eliminating your ‘emotional baggage’, and opening your heart and body to the positive energies of the world. Filled with real-world examples from many years of clinical practice, The Emotion Code is a distinct and authoritative work that has become a classic on self-healing.

Today’s talk - Why gut health matters! Here in sunny St.Lucia @thebodyholiday ☀️🌴

The health of the gut microbiome impacts digestion, immune function, mood, metabolism, mental health, skin health and ultimately our overall well-being. It influences nutrient absorption, protects against harmful pathogens, and plays a role in maintaining a balanced immune response. Additionally, the gut microbiome is linked to brain health, affecting mood and cognitive function through the gut-brain axis. Keeping a healthy microbiome is essential for supporting these critical aspects of health. Put simply …

Detrimental Factors:

🍔Processed Foods: Diets high in refined sugars, UPFs, alcohol and unhealthy fats can disrupt the diversity of your gut microbiome, leading to an overgrowth of harmful bacteria.

🦠 Antibiotics: While essential for treating bacterial infections, antibiotics can wipe out beneficial bacteria, leaving your gut vulnerable to imbalances.

😩Chronic Stress: Prolonged stress can alter gut motility and decrease the production of stomach acid, affecting the balance of your gut flora.

🥱Lack of Sleep: Inadequate sleep can disrupt your circadian rhythm, which is closely linked to gut health, potentially leading to dysbiosis.

Also; Genetics, Age, Medication, Pets …

Supporting Gut Health:

🌈Diet Rich in Fibre: Foods like fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains provide essential nutrients that feed beneficial gut bacteria.

🧀Probiotics & Fermented Foods: Yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kombucha introduce beneficial bacteria to your gut, supporting a balanced microbiome.

🏃‍♀️Regular Exercise: Physical activity encourages the growth of diverse gut bacteria and supports healthy digestion.

🧘‍♀️Stress Management: Practices like meditation, deep breathing, and yoga can reduce stress levels and promote a healthy gut-brain connection.

Prioritize gut health to enhance your overall well-being—your microbiome will thank you!

🌍✈️ Unlock the Power of Fasting on Long-Haul Flights!

Next time you’re flying long haul, consider skipping the plane food and embracing a 24-hour fast. It’s a game-changer for your health and comfort in the air!

Here’s why: Airline meals are often packed with salt and processed ingredients, leading to dehydration, bloating, and sluggish digestion—exactly what you don’t want when you’re stuck in a cabin at 30,000 feet. Fasting helps you avoid these pitfalls, leaving you feeling lighter and more energised.

But that’s not all. Fasting during a flight can also help reset your internal clock, making it easier to adjust to new time zones and combat jet lag. By avoiding in-flight meals and focusing on hydration, you give your digestive system a break, allowing your body to function better in the air and recover faster when you land.

Instead of mindlessly eating out of boredom, use the flight time to meditate, read, or just relax. Your body and mind will thank you when you arrive at your destination feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to take on the world. 🌟

So, next time you’re airborne, consider fasting for 24 hours—it’s a simple yet powerful way to elevate your travel experience.

I had the great privilege to interview legendary fitness and nutrition coach @jj.virgin at this years @healthoptimisationsummit. Here she shared her insights into how all of us can achieve a strong healthy aspirational body at any age, how we should aim for strong not skinny and how consistency wins every time.

I really hope you enjoy our chat, sorry for the background noise. The conference was truly amazing this year with so so many great speakers. I plan to share more clips with you if you’d like me to.

@jj.virgin has written books and offers programmes so jump on her website to learn more.

I was so inspired and impressed by her and for sure she optimises the saying age is just a number! She looks and feels at least 20 years younger.

As you know I’m a huge advocate for extending our healthspan, which is sadly declining in the UK and offer a range of talks on optimising longevity.

One of the things we offer in our clinic is @glycanage test, whereby you can check your biological age (cellular age) compared to your chronological age (years alive). I recommend my clients to do this annually and watch how optimised diet, lifestyle, exercise and sleep can literally turn back the clock.

We also offer genetic testing to ensure we know exactly how to optimise your diet for your unique genetic requirements.

I’ll have to upload in chunks as IG only allows short clips so more to come …

One of the things I talk about a lot in both my clinical practice and my workshops is sustainable behaviour change. So if there’s something you really want, start today, tiny changes can have a huge impact in no time at all 🙌.

I’m working on running right now, I’ve never enjoyed running particularly as I find it very hard but with a great play list and my new @hoka trainers, out in Richmond Park, Wimbledon Common or on any beach, I feel amazing when I run, even short distances gradually adding a bit more each week.

If not now, when?

In one year, you’ll wish you had started this today:

It’s called the 1% Better Every Day Rule.

It’s all about the power of small habits
↳ Improve yourself by 1% each day.

With only 20 minutes of focused effort daily
↳ You’ll be 37x better in a year.

Forget drastic life overhauls → Big changes often lead to burnout.

But, small, consistent improvements compound.

How To Implement:
1. Choose one area to improve
2. Break it down into daily micro-habits
3. Track your progress
4. Celebrate small wins

Habit-Building Guidelines:
- Make it obvious (cue)
- Make it attractive (craving)
- Make it easy (response)
- Make it satisfying (reward)

Consistency is everything.

Tiny improvements will compound into remarkable personal growth.

I’d love to hear any of your experiences around behaviour change 🥰

You all know I’m happiest and obsessed with spending time in nature 😊. This was my walk on Wimbledon Common yesterday. Go if you can and get amongst the trees. It is magical right now.

Did you know that nature can supercharge your immune system? 🌿

Forest bathing, or “shinrin-yoku,” is a simple yet powerful way to enhance your body’s natural killer (NK) cells. These amazing cells are frontline warriors in fighting off cancer cells and infections! 🌳💚

When you immerse yourself in a forest, you’re exposed to phytoncides—natural compounds released by trees. These compounds increase NK cell activity, making them more effective at targeting and destroying harmful cells. The result? A stronger immune system and a reduced risk of cancer🌲

But that’s not all! Forest bathing also helps reduce stress by lowering cortisol levels, the hormone linked to anxiety and inflammation. Less stress means a more balanced immune response and a healthier you! 🌟

Take a deep breath, connect with nature, and let the forest work its magic on your health. Whether it’s a hike, a walk, or just sitting among the trees, every moment spent in nature counts. 🌿✨

🌞💦 Stay Hydrated & Balanced in the Heat! 💦🌞

As the temperatures soar, it’s crucial to keep your body well-hydrated and balanced. But did you know that just drinking water isn’t enough? That’s where electrolytes come into play! 🧂

Electrolytes, like sodium, potassium, and magnesium, are essential minerals that help regulate muscle function, nerve signaling, and fluid balance. When we sweat, we lose not just water but also these vital electrolytes. Without replenishing them, you might experience muscle cramps, fatigue, dizziness, or even more severe issues like heat stroke.

In the summer heat, staying hydrated is about more than quenching thirst. It’s about maintaining the right balance of electrolytes to ensure your body functions optimally. Whether you’re working out, enjoying outdoor activities, or just dealing with the heat, make sure to include electrolyte-rich foods and drinks in your routine. Think bananas, coconut water, sports drinks, and leafy greens!

You can buy electrolytes from companies like True Hydration @ancientandbrave or @drinklmnt from @healf.com (use Tina10 discount code at checkout) which are the ones I use as like the handy sachets that I keep in my handbag or make your own.

Remember if you are wanting to stay fasted only the @drinklmnt unflavoured keep you in fasted state.

If you want an afternoon pick me up then try electrolytes to give you a real boost to get you through your afternoon slump.

Remember, hydration isn’t just about water—it’s about the balance of electrolytes that keep you going strong. So, stay safe, stay hydrated, and enjoy the summer sun!

Oh and if I could tell my younger self one thing it would be always wear SPF50 every day, even in winter, as sun is the biggest cause of skin ageing and sagging.

That said I do aim for 20 mins every day without any sun factor to aim to get vitamin D synthesis.

I keep hearing about getting a bikini body and beach ready, so I thought I’d share a gentle reminder.

To celebrate your body!

Appreciate all that your body can do. Every day your body carries you closer to your dreams. Celebrate all of the amazing things your body does for you — running, dancing, breathing, laughing, dreaming, etc. Take care and show appreciation of yourself and your incredible body whatever size or shape you are, and regardless of society’s standards. You are always beach ready!!! 🏖️🏝️☀️

In the words of Whitney Houston - Learning to love yourself is the Greatest Love of All!

The foundation of my clinical work and education programmes are; self care, compassion, self love and positive self talk.

When you develop a healthy loving, kind relationship with yourself and your body, you can truly thrive as you want to take great care of this amazing gift you are living in.

You are a miracle✨! Shine brightly and never let anyone dull your light 🌟 in this world.

Please share with someone that would appreciate this message today 😊🙏

An enormous thank you for your support and please do keep sharing 🙏. The summer holiday is the perfect time for our young people to try some easy recipes and embark on some self care and self love practices, to help them truly thrive.

Children and teenagers in the UK are facing a severe health crisis due to poor diet. The Royal College of Paediatricians and Child Health states that the UK is failing its young people, with widespread nutrient deficiencies causing developmental issues, learning difficulties, behavioural problems, poor sleep, mental health issues, and weight imbalances. My mission is to empower young people to take charge of their health by providing them with the knowledge & tools they need.

The Department of Health reports worsening eating habits among teenagers, predicting a future of poor health and lost potential. This urgent situation demands expert-led education on nutrition and lifestyle habits to foster positive behaviours.

Having worked with thousands of students over the last 15 years, my experience shows that children and teenagers are eager for practical, science-based health information from a trustworthy expert.

My book, The Eat Well & Feel Great, educates children, teenagers, young adults, and their parents and teachers on what their bodies and minds need to thrive. Proper nutrition and daily habits can significantly improve mental health, learning, cognition, academic performance, behaviour, sleep, energy, sporting ability, wellbeing, and confidence. Healthy eating habits in childhood can set the foundation for a lifetime of good nutrition, reducing the risk of lifestyle-related diseases like obesity, diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular issues.

My mission is to empower young people to take charge of their health by providing them with the knowledge & tools to help them thrive 🌟

Your amazon reviews are so important so thanks in advance and to those that have left reviews 🙏

As you know I’m hugely passionate about Skin health hence I love working with @skinceuticals @lorealparis to help their master practitioners learn about the relationship between nutrition and skin health.

🌟 The Sweet Truth About Glycation, Sugar, and Your Skin! 🌟

Did you know that the sugar in your diet can have a significant impact on your skin health? 🍭 When we consume sugar, it binds to proteins in our body through a process called glycation, leading to the formation of harmful molecules called Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs). These AGEs can damage collagen and elastin, the proteins that keep our skin firm and youthful.

Glycation accelerates the ageing process, resulting in wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of skin elasticity. Imagine sugar as a sneaky culprit speeding up the clock on your skin’s natural aging process!

But don’t worry, you can take action! Here are some tips to protect your skin from glycation:

1. Limit Sugar Intake: Reduce consumption of sugary foods, alcohol and sugary drinks. Opt for natural sweeteners like fruit, honey or stevia. 🍯
2. Eat Antioxidant-Rich Foods: Incorporate brightly coloured fruits, vegetables, and nuts into your diet to combat the effects of AGEs. 🥗🍇
3. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and help flush out toxins. Green tea is an amazing antioxidant too💧
4. Use Skincare Products with Antioxidants: Look for serums and creams that contain ingredients like vitamin C, E, such as the super skin protective CE Ferulic serum by @skinceuticals which I use every day🌿
5. Alcohol: 🍷 Alcohol causes your body and skin to lose fluid (dehydrate). Dry skin wrinkles more quickly and can look dull and grey. Alcohol`s diuretic (water-loss) effect also causes you to lose vitamins and nutrients.

Remember, glowing skin starts from within!

Make mindful choices and watch your skin thank you. Let me know if you’d like more of my top tops for great skin health. ✨💖

As promised here’s the recipe for my great friend Emma’s legendary Spinach and Feta Filo Pie. A bit of meatless Monday motivation.

Ingredients

* 100 g pine nuts
* 5 large free-range eggs
* 300 g feta cheese
* 50 g Cheddar cheese
* dried oregano
* 1 lemon
* olive oil
* 1 knob of unsalted butter
* 400 g baby spinach
* 1 x 270 g pack of filo pastry
* cayenne pepper
* 1 whole nutmeg - for grating

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6.

2. Toast the pine nuts in a large ovenproof frying pan over a medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden and smelling fantastic, tossing occasionally.

3. Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl, crumble in the feta, then grate in the Cheddar. Season with a pinch of black pepper and a couple of pinches of dried oregano.

4. Finely grate in the lemon zest, drizzle in a little oil, then toss in the toasted pine nuts. Mix well.

5. Melt the butter in the frying pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil, add half the spinach, stirring until wilted, then when there’s space, add the remaining spinach, stirring regularly until wilted.

6. Lay a 50cm strip of greaseproof paper out on a clean work surface, rub lightly with oil and scrunch up, then flatten out again.

7. Arrange 4 sheets of filo in a large rectangle on the greaseproof paper, overlapping at the edges, so that it’s almost covering the greaseproof.

8. Rub the filo with a little oil, sprinkle with sea salt, pepper and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Repeat until you have 3 layers.

9. Stir the wilted spinach into the egg mixture, then grate in half the nutmeg and mix well.

10. Slide the greaseproof and filo into the empty frying pan, so that the edges spill over, then push down into the sides of the pan.

11. Pour in the spinach mixture and spread out evenly, then fold the filo up over the filling to cover.

12. Place the pan over a medium heat for 2 minutes, just to get the bottom cooking, then transfer to the top shelf of the oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Delicious served with a fresh seasonal salad.

And enjoy 😘❤️

We’ve got a big day day tomorrow ⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿so thought I’d share some inspo for grazing boards. I’m a huge fan of sharing boards, as you can often hit a whopping 20-30+ plants with just one serving. Small amounts of different coloured plants, grains, pulses, nuts and seeds are amazing to help us get great nutrient diversity, which provides great energy and fuel our gut microbes impacting immunity, sleep, mood, skin health, metabolism and ageing.

Come on England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Here I’m talking about my skin foods checklist at the @lorealparis @skinceuticals conference. Incorporating these foods into your diet each week is the foundation to healthy glowing clear skin. First on the list are Nuts & Seeds! I start my day, every day with these to ensure I’m getting some really good nutrients to start my day well.

My favourite nuts are walnuts - the ultimate skin glow food!

Nuts and seeds are nutritional powerhouses, packed with essential nutrients that greatly benefit skin health:

🌻Vitamin E:
* Source: Almonds, sunflower seeds, hazelnuts.
* Benefit: Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from oxidative stress and UV damage, promoting a youthful appearance and preventing premature ageing.

🍣Omega-3 Fatty Acids:
* Source: flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts (also in oily fish and algae)
* Benefit: These essential fatty acids reduce inflammation, hydrate the skin, and support the skin’s barrier function, helping to alleviate conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

🍤 Zinc:
* Source: Pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, cashews, (& fish)
* Benefit: Zinc plays a crucial role in skin repair, collagen synthesis, and regulating oil production, making it effective in preventing and managing acne.

🍫 Magnesium:
* Source: Almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds (& dark chocolate)
* Benefit: Magnesium helps to balance hormones and reduce stress, both of which can positively impact skin health by reducing acne flare-ups and improving skin hydration.

🌰Selenium:
* Source: Brazil nuts.
* Benefit: Selenium works with vitamin E to protect the skin from oxidative damage and supports skin elasticity, preventing sagging and wrinkles.

🍳 Biotin:
* Source: Legumes, Sunflower seeds, almonds (& eggs)
* Benefit: Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is essential for healthy skin, hair, and nails, preventing dryness and promoting a smooth complexion.

And FIBRE - approx 80% of us have an insufficient intake of fibre!

Incorporating a variety of nuts and seeds into your diet can provide essential nutrients promoting healthy glowing skin.

Nuts and seeds are nutritional powerhouses, packed with essential nutrients that greatly benefit skin health:

🌻Vitamin E:
* Source: Almonds, sunflower seeds, hazelnuts.
* Benefit: Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from oxidative stress and UV damage, promoting a youthful appearance and preventing premature ageing.

🍣Omega-3 Fatty Acids:
* Source: flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts (also in oily fish and algae)
* Benefit: These essential fatty acids reduce inflammation, hydrate the skin, and support the skin’s barrier function, helping to alleviate conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

🍤 Zinc:
* Source: Pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, cashews, (& fish)
* Benefit: Zinc plays a crucial role in skin repair, collagen synthesis, and regulating oil production, making it effective in preventing and managing acne.

🍫 Magnesium:
* Source: Almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds (& dark chocolate)
* Benefit: Magnesium helps to balance hormones and reduce stress, both of which can positively impact skin health by reducing acne flare-ups and improving skin hydration.

🌰Selenium:
* Source: Brazil nuts.
* Benefit: Selenium works with vitamin E to protect the skin from oxidative damage and supports skin elasticity, preventing sagging and wrinkles.

🍳 Biotin:
* Source: Legumes, Sunflower seeds, almonds (& eggs)
* Benefit: Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is essential for healthy skin, hair, and nails, preventing dryness and promoting a smooth complexion.

And FIBRE - approx 80% of us have an insufficient intake of fibre!

Incorporating a variety of nuts and seeds into your diet can provide essential nutrients promoting healthy glowing skin.

An amazing weekend at @healthoptimisationsummit London. An extraordinary line up of thought leaders and speakers on every aspect of wellbeing, preventative medicine and health optimisation.

We had the privilege of listening to some world class leaders @dr.mindypelz, @bengreenfieldfitness @garybrecka @jimkwik @thesadiapsychology @zachbushmd @jj.virgin @timbiohacker and many more.

As a clinician for over 20 years I see more and more young people suffering with significant health issues that arise from our frenetic modern screen focused living, poor food environment, nutrient deficiencies, insufficient sleep, a lack of movement, fresh air and time in nature, whilst also living in highly polluted and toxin rich obesogenic environment.

We share a common belief that there are core foundations or pillars of wellbeing including good nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management, breathwork, gratitude, community, and purpose. Prioritising self care and simple daily habits, many of which are totally free can truly transform our health and wellbeing. Adding additional #biohacks can take you to another level.

I’ve been teaching this for over 15 years in schools to over 25,000 students a year and want every child and young person to have access to this information. I’m now recruiting for my ‘Nutrition Revolution’ community, working with nurseries, schools and colleges nationwide and internationally.

Some helpful health tools include;

For bone health - @powerplateuk
For health tracking - @aura @whoop @ultrahuman_air_ring @glycanage
For detox - @sunlighten @firzonesaunas
For healing/energy - @redlightrising
For grounding mats - @pemfituk
For healthy skincare - @susiewho.uk
For supplements - @healf (discount Tina10)

We have 5 fantastic clinicians at the Nutrition Guru clinic offering
Genetic testing (your personalised health handbook), microbiome gut health tests, Nutrition analysis, Omega 3 tests, hormone panels and many more.

We’d love to hear from you.

I’m so so thrilled to be expanding my nutrition and wellbeing education programme for nurseries, schools, colleges and universities across the whole of the UK and Northern Ireland and any country that you may be in 😊.
(We’ve already had enquiries in Europe).

As you may know, I am hugely passionate about children and teenage health and have dedicated 15 years to working in schools and developed the ‘Eat Well and Feel Great’ programme with students, teachers and parent feedback. This programme really speaks to our young people, empowering them and giving them the tools and tips to really truly optimise their potential.

My mission is simple … to help shape the health, well-being and self-esteem of the children and young people of today and tomorrow. They are the future and I believe are being sorely letdown at present, as they are not properly taught in schools about how their daily diet and lifestyle habits can truly help them thrive or create a whole host of issues for them.

“An adolescent who is healthy is the best foundation for a healthy adult life, which will in turn influence future generations health.” The Lancet

Our young people are struggling more than ever, so the time is right to ensure that every parent, child, teen, carer and teacher has access to this programme.

I’m hosting a webinar this evening to tell you more about this programme. You do need to be a qualified and insured nutritionist or dietician. If you are interested, please email me on admin@thenutritionguru.co.uk to get the zoom link.

If you know of anyone that would be interested, please do share this post with them .

To learn more about my programme hop on my website, the link is in the bio and head to the schools page.

@dr.mindypelz was truly captivating yesterday at @healthoptimisationsummit. Over 700 people in the room, many were bought to tears when she explained how so many women feel unheard and disempowered and let down by our healthcare system living with poor health, disregulated hormones causing, stubborn weight gain - making them susceptible to so many diseases including cancers, diabetes, heart disease and inflammatory conditions.

Healthcare is so unaffordable and an accessible to so many in the world. Her mission is to empower women to reclaim their health, totally for free using fasting. Fasting is one of the most ancient traditional ways of resetting through body, allowing deep cleansing, removing and detoxing unwanted cells such as cancer cells and is considered one of the best and anti ageing tools.

I was fortunate to interview her yesterday and I’ll be sharing so many of her insights with you.

How many women do you know struggling with that weight, hormones, moods, cycle?

🌟 Thanks to @w_wellness_uk and @sa_comms for a fabulous breakfast press event at Claridges! 🌟

I was thrilled to be part of the panel of the expert ‘Women in Wellness’ alongside @dr_galyna, @thegonggirl, @lisafranklinuk and @annalancastertherapy.

I discussed some recent statistics from the National Diet and Nutrition Survey, which show how common nutrient deficiencies are in the UK. Recent research by the British Nutrition Foundation also indicates that 70% of us may have 7 or more deficiencies. Shockingly, only 0.1% of us meet the basic Eatwell Guide recommendations, and 32.5% adults consume 5-a-day, and just 12% of children reach that target. You may wonder why, despite an abundance of food, nutrient deficiencies are so prevalent in the UK.

There are the obvious ones such as UPFs and poor dietary choices, but also soil nutrient depletion, lifestyle factors such as alcohol consumption and smoking which can deplete vital nutrients and our ageing population. Older adults often have decreased appetites and may take medications that interfere with nutrient absorption, but also special diets such as began and vegetarian diets and weight loss diets.

One thing that’s often overlooked is how stress impacts our nutrient status;

☑️Chronic Stress: Chronic stress activates the sympathetic nervous system, reducing the production of digestive enzymes and stomach acid, impairing food breakdown and nutrient absorption.
☑️Altered Gut Microbiota: Stress can negatively impact gut bacteria, hindering the absorption of nutrients like B vitamins and Vitamin K.
☑️Increased Nutrient Demand: Stress increases the body’s demand for nutrients like magnesium, B vitamins, and Vitamin C. If not replenished, deficiencies can occur.

I often recommend calming breathwork techniques in order to help switch from sympathetic (fight or flight) to parasympathetic (rest and digest) to help improve digestion. Also managing stress through daily relaxation techniques such mindfulness and meditative practices can help maintain better digestive health and nutrient absorption.

A huge thank you for inviting me to be the keynote speaker on Nutrition and Skin health at @skinceuticals ‘Mastering Integrated Aesthetician masterclass’ in Marylebone London, for the launch of two amazing new products the Cell Cycle Catalyst and P-Tiox.

Skin is a mirror reflecting our inner health. Here’s how your inner health impacts your skin:

🦠 Gut & Microbiome: A healthy gut is crucial for clear skin. A balanced microbiome helps reduce inflammation and acne. Pre and probiotics and fermented foods are your skin’s best friends!
🥗 Nutrient-Dense Diet: What you eat directly affects your skin. Foods rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants (think colourful veggies, fruits, healthy fats - nuts, seeds and fibre) nourish your skin and aid detoxification from the inside out.
🍽️ Liver Health: Your liver detoxifies your body. When it’s overworked due to poor diet, excessive alcohol, sugar and UPFs, it shows up on your skin. Support your liver by starting your day with hot water with lemon and ginger and enjoy a daily green veggie juice with turmeric, and plenty of water.
💤 Sleep: Lack of sleep leads to dull skin, dark circles, and breakouts. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep to let your skin repair and rejuvenate.
😰 Stress: High stress levels trigger cortisol production, leading to inflammation and breakouts. Practice mindfulness, meditation, or any activity that relaxes you. I love the ‘Insight Timer’ app for guided meditation and breathwork.
🍷 Alcohol/Caffeine Excessive drinking dehydrates your skin and impairs liver function, leading to dullness and breakouts. Moderation is key!
🍬 Sugar: High sugar intake can cause glycation, damaging collagen and leading to premature aging. Opt for natural sweetness in whole fruits and whole foods.

I love talking about face mapping where we can see exactly what’s happening in the body by looking at puffiness, breakout areas, under eye circles, dullness etc.

Remember, true skin health is a reflection of overall well-being. Nourish your body, and your skin will thank you! ✨

Salads to support our immune health with @UnbeleafableUK

To celebrate National Salad Week brought to us by @UnbealfableUK, I’m excited to share with you my immune boosting salad recipe using Unbeleafable mixed baby leaves. They’re deliciously crisp and grown right here in Britain 365 days a year.

Salads are often loaded with vegetables and fruits, which are rich in vitamins and minerals essential for a healthy immune system. Vitamin C from ingredients like bell peppers, pomegranate, and broccoli, for example, can help enhance the production of white blood cells, which are key to fighting off infections. Veggie and all this fibre keep us full up for longer too and keep hunger pangs at bay. There’s over 15 plants in just this one salad 🥗.

Packed with antioxidants such as beta carotene in carrots and kale, or and powerful bioactive compounds in these colourful plant foods. These compounds help neutralise harmful free radicals in the body, reducing oxidative stress and supporting immune function.

Gut loving fibre is abundant in vegetables which supports a healthy gut and we know robust gut microbiome is crucial for proper immune function, as it helps regulate inflammation and promotes the development of immune cells. My delicious honey and mustard dressing is made with apple cider vinegar, is a good source of probiotics.

I add seeds and avocado to my salads as they provide healthy fats, to give you that real skin glow. They have anti-inflammatory properties and support immune function.

You can pick up Unbeleafable salad leaves in selected @TescoFood stores.

If you’d like the recipe simple type Salads into the comment box.

I’m literally skin obsessed having struggled with acne in my teens and twenties. I then developed rosacea in my early 40s most likely from a lifetime of not wearing SPF. I grew up in the era of carrot oil and sunbeds and having a permatan was aspirational 🙄😳.

I’m so happy with my skin now. It’s probably the best it’s ever been in my whole life. Research shows us that you can truly influence and improve your skin through the healing power of nutrition, reducing alcohol, SPF50 every single day, targeted supplements, improved sleep/stress reduction techniques, optimising detoxification pathways (inc. exercise), hydration, good gut health and LED light masks. Oh and some good quality skincare such as @skinceuticals CE Ferulic and their new product the Cell Cycle Catalyst. These can be transformative.

People always ask what treatments I have. I’ve never really been into having expensive treatments although I might treat myself to a facial very occasionally. I know there’s so many lasers, peels etc but I’m of the belief less is more and understanding the fundamental importance of the microbiome on our skin and maintaining the health of the skin barrier, I don’t buy into the concept of anything aggressive which will cause damage to this important skin barrier.

I’m literally skin obsessed having struggled with acne in my teens and twenties. I then developed rosacea in my early 40s most likely from a lifetime of not wearing SPF. I grew up in the era of carrot oil and sunbeds and having a permatan was aspirational 🙄😳.

I’m so happy with my skin now. It’s probably the best it’s ever been in my whole life. Research shows us that you can truly influence and improve your skin through the healing power of nutrition, reducing alcohol, SPF50 every single day, targeted supplements, improved sleep/stress reduction techniques, optimising detoxification pathways (inc. exercise), hydration, good gut health and LED light masks. Oh and some good quality skincare such as @skinceuticals CE Ferulic and their new product the Cell Cycle Catalyst. These can be transformative.

People always ask what treatments I have. I’ve never really been into having expensive treatments although I might treat myself to a facial very occasionally. I know there’s so many lasers, peels etc but I’m of the belief less is more and understanding the fundamental importance of the microbiome on our skin and maintaining the health of the skin barrier, I don’t buy into the concept of anything aggressive which will cause damage to this important skin barrier.

A gentle reminder that when the world feels all a bit much nature has the power to heal us 🙏

I felt jaded this morning so prioritised some really restorative self care with an early morning walk in Richmond Park. 2 hours by myself, listening to the birdsong and enjoying the nature I feel as good as new.

Why?Walking in Nature:

🌳 Reduces Stress Hormones:
Numerous studies have shown that spending time in natural environments, such as forests or parks, can reduce levels of cortisol, a stress hormone. A study published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology in 2015 found that participants who walked in a forest had lower cortisol levels compared to those who walked in an urban environment.

🌳 Improved Mood:

Exposure to nature has been linked to improved mood and reduced feelings of anxiety and depression. A study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in 2015 found that participants who walked for 90 minutes in a natural environment reported lower levels of rumination (repetitive negative thinking) and reduced neural activity in the subgenual prefrontal cortex, a brain region associated with risk for mental illness, compared to those who walked in an urban environment.

🌳 Enhanced Cognitive Function:

Nature walks have been associated with improved cognitive function, attention, memory and creativity. Research published in Journal of Environmental Psychology 2003 found that participants who took a nature walk performed better on a cognitive task compared to those who walked in an urban setting.

Wishing you a wonderful bank holiday whatever you are up to and a gentle reminder to check in with yourself and what your body needs this weekend 😘

Don’t you just love the healing power and beauty of nature 🤗

I think for all of us we’re living such busy lives, so having a sanctuary where we feel cared for is so important.

I started going to the @ginaconwaysalonandspa a year ago and my hair has been truly transformed. Having shiny healthy hair to me is so important for our confidence and a real sign of our health and vitality, so I’m so grateful for the attention and care I receive there. I love that we are welcomed with a neck and shoulder massage on arrival and some calming Aveda tea to set the mood.

This week I tried their spa experience which was exceptional. I can’t recommend the treatments enough. The perfect gift for anyone needing some TLC. A great self-care gift too 😄.

In my opinion, managing our mental health requires regular attention. A simple daily check in with ourselves is a good place to start. Ask ourselves how we are doing and what needs our focus. Perhaps it’s as simple as an early night, some proper downtime and relaxation, the listening ear of a good friend, a restorative walk in nature or some relaxing breath work. Having a tool kit that we know we can use when we need it is so helpful.

This week I really felt I needed some TLC myself and this incredible two hour ‘harmonising indulgence treatment’ ticked all the boxes. Deep relaxation, relaxing breathwork, aromatherapy oils and the skillful hands of Ambers bodywork and facial was incredible.

I hope you’ve enjoyed the weekend and wishing you health and happiness for the week ahead.

I’m delighted to be part of the Bryanston Parenting Conference again this year, taking place on June 4th. This is a wonderful initiative where you will be hearing from the very best of the ‘Speakers for Schools’ community. Topics vary widely from me as a Nutritionist, to parenting coaches, mental health specialists, gambling, drugs, relationship, LGBTQI+, alcohol and so much more. Everything to do with helping support, nurture and optimise our young people will be covered in one fantastic day with a super lunch included.

Raising a teenager can be one of the most daunting tasks any parent will face. The challenges and pressures of modern parenting can leave parents feeling isolated and unsure of themselves.

“The event will give parents practical advice to help them navigate the complexities of modern parenting, such as:

How can I help them study more effectively?
Should I limit their screen time?
How can I help them sleep better and eat well?
How can I help them stay safe at parties and festivals?
What else can I do to enhance their wellbeing and protect their mental health?”

For PSHE teachers, Deputy Head Pastoral and Head Teachers around the UK and parents nationwide please do come and join us. The talks are really fascinating and its a highlight in the calendar in terms of finding us all in one place on one day, we are available to chat to you too in a relaxed environment during tea breaks and lunch too.

If you are one of the speakers do let me know if you’re coming along, looking forward to seeing you there.

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week.

Although I am blessed with a sunny and glass half full disposition, I have had mental health challenges in my life.

I have had periods of overwhelming grief and so much loss at a very young age and struggled with panic attacks and extreme anxiety at the onset of my perimenopause 😞.Losing people I loved deeply, has driven me to want to make the most of every day and live my life with purpose and passion, with a personal aim to help people whenever and wherever I can to optimise their health and wellbeing. I choose to believe that anything that hurts you this much is meant as a lesson for growth and can be used as a driver to improve our life wherever possible.

In this post I wanted to share with you how powerful our genes can be in our mental health. I have always really struggled to switch off and would often find my head was busiest as soon as my head hit the pillow and could easily feel overwhelmed. Once I had my genetic handbook I understood why. I’m only covering two genes 🧬 here but there are others.

I hope this is helpful. DM me if you want to learn more about the Genetic Handbook kit we offer. We’ve sold hundreds of the simple salivary kits, no blood required and everyone just loves to understand more about their unique genetic make up and how simple changes can improve their wellbeing. You receive a 33 page handbook all about you and how to support your body, how to prevent diseases and optimise energy, sleep, mental health, healthy ageing and so much more.

Pauline is our amazing Thrive coach so get in touch if you’d like to book a discovery call with her.

If you found this interesting please do let me know and like and share with friends and family.

🥗🥑🫑Daily Diversity Bowl 🥒🌱🌽

I promise it tastes better than it looks. Packed with slow release fibre it will keep you full up too 😘

We keep hearing about the magic number of aiming for 30 plants a week to optimise our gut health and to help hit the optimum fibre intake of 30g+ a day. The powerful colourful compounds not only feed our gut microbes but also help ward off so many diseases and help optimise our cognition, memory and mood. Did you know 80% of noncommunicable diseases are preventable! Think heart disease, diabetes, cancer, respiratory conditions and more.

How about if you could hit 15 plant points in just one meal?

To me the easiest way you can elevate and optimise your diet is put together a diversity bowl as often as possible using leftovers - roasted vegetables, grains, vegetables, meat, fish, eggs, beans or tofu. I always cook my vegetables with lots of herbs or spices which all count towards your 30 plant points.

The apple cider vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, mustard and honey dressing also feeds look up microbes due to the fermented microbes in vinegar which act like a natural probiotic.

by adding not some seeds to most dishes, you will hugely impact the nutrient density of any meal simply as they are power packed with healthy fats, protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals. They really do give good bang for your buck and don’t worry about the calories as nuts and seeds are super helpful. That said aim to consume approximately a flat palm amount of nuts/seeds a day.

There are so many different dressings you can add to these diversity bowls, think miso/soy, satay, fresh mango 🥭, green goddess …

This is just an example of something where I’ve used everything I had in the fridge but you’ll find recipes all over the web for specific combinations e.g. Mexican, Asian want etc.

What’s your favourite combination? I’d love to hear from you.
