What I packed for my metabolic health this morning before taking my wee ones for a forest walk. 🌳 🌞

Sausages, aged cheddar, cashews and left over roasted broccoli. 🥦

This got a bit of love in my stories, so I thought it deserved a place on the feed.

If you’re not listening and following and you’re a parent/teacher/allied health/grandparent/aunty/uncle/anyone who spends regular time with kids, whether you have your own or not, you should put them in your listening cycle. It’ll challenge how you relate to children, and yourself, for the better. The best free resource available.

And I’m a little star struck they reposted my story 🥹

Happy New Year! Here, have a visual representation of what it’s like to breastfeed.
Also, when a recipe asks for one onion, are you a lefty or right side “one onion” person.🤔 let me know below ⬇️

There is a whole profession trained in prescribing diet and supplements for disease and condition management and remediation, why aren’t we using them?

✨ now practicing from Gum Medical Centre in Gumeracha on Saturday mornings! ✨

I’m doing it! I’m launching back into clinical practice and bringing nutrition services to the beautiful Adelaide Hills! 🤩

I’m really excited to be heading on this journey and joining the team at Gum Medical, who are all lovely and supportive. 😌

I love the idea of bringing a nutrition service to a more country area. I understand the struggle of accessing a variety of healthcare services when you’re a bit out of the city, as my family are located on the Yorke Peninsula, where it’s always been a struggle to access services.

I’m hoping my new face-to-face location brings new tools and health to the people in the area.

I’m also offering Telehealth on Tuesdays and Thursdays!

You can book online, but if you have any issues, questions or queries, you can message me here, or send me an email at [email protected]

I look foreword to seeing you in practice soon 🥹

I am now offering face to face appointments on Saturday mornings from Gum Medical in gorgeous Gumeracha in the Adelaide hills!

A beautiful practice and I’m so excited to start working alongside all of the staff and everyone in the community 🥰

WELCOME! A new service now available at Gum Medical 😄 :
Hi, I'm Leisha I'm a Certified Practicing Nutritionist (CPN) and high school teacher now offering clinical nutrition therapy services on Saturday mornings from 15th November.
I've been an CPN for nearly 10 years now, seeing patients over those years alongside teaching and having two children. Now, I'm stepping back into a clinical role hoping to help people through nutrition, testing and supplementation (when necessary). I've always had a passion for bringing services to areas further out of town, as the majority of my family live on the Southern Yorke Pensinula and I've seen how hard it can be to access quality care. Like many CPNs, my own health has been a battle. From chronic skin conditions, allergies, autoimmunity and gut issues, I've experienced what it's like to have multiple things going all at once and feeling lost in the fog. I've always had a passion for health and I think having this personal experience has given me unique insight into how important building something that works with you, not against you, is for long-term health.
I have a special interest in allergic conditions, autoimmunity, chronic fatigue, ADHD and mental health conditions, but I've worked successfully with patients on multiple medications and complex conditions, finding novel ways to help support health.
If you'd like to make an appointment, or organise a quick chat to see what we could do, send me an email with your best contact details and we can go from there.
