Ever feel like your 💩 gut healing journey is missing a piece of the puzzle? You can't fully heal an inflamed gut if your drainage system is backed up!! Are you supporting your lymphatic system?

☀️ With the sun shining over the last few days… and I can feel spring almost here! 🌸

After months of cosy nights, comfort food, slower mornings and perhaps a little less movement, I think many of us are ready to come out of hibernation! 🙏

But are you feeling quite ready?

Maybe you're feeling…
🌿 Bloated and uncomfortable
🌿 Heavy or puffy
🌿 Sluggish and lacking energy
🌿 Like your digestion isn't quite right
🌿 A little more uncomfortable in your clothes
🌿 Or perhaps you've gained a few kilos over winter and just don't
feel like yourself

If this sounds familiar, you don't need to punish yourself or jump onto another restrictive diet.

Spring can simply be a beautiful opportunity to reset, refocus and start nourishing your body again. 🤍

And this is exactly what I love helping my clients with at Nutritious Vitality

These are just some of the ways I can help you:.

🥗 Nutrition Consultations
Personalised nutrition support to help you understand what your body needs and create realistic changes that fit your lifestyle.

🌿 Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Massage
A beautiful, relaxing treatment designed to support lymphatic flow and fluid movement, while giving you some much-needed time to slow down and reconnect with your body.

🔥 Detox Program
My complete wellness reset combining a nutrition consultation, personalised detox meal plan, Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Massage and infrared sauna sessions.

✨ Nourish from within.

Move. Reset. Glow.

You don't have to wait until summer to start feeling your best.

Let's use this beautiful change of season as an opportunity to come out of hibernation and get you glowing from the inside out. 🌸

💗 If you're ready for a fresh start, send me a DM with “SPRING” and let's chat about which option could be right for you.

Here's to good health and happiness

🔥 Why are my clients choosing my infrared sauna over their local gym???

When I decided to introduce an infrared sauna to Nutritious Vitality, I knew I didn't want to simply add another service to my list.

I wanted to offer something that genuinely complemented the work I already do with my clients through nutrition, skin and massage — and something I could feel confident putting my name behind.

So, before investing, I spent hours researching infrared saunas.

I looked at safety, materials, EMF levels, infrared technology, heating efficiency and, most importantly, the overall quality of the sauna.

After all that research, Clearlight Infrared Saunas came out on top for me. 🌿

So, what made it stand out?

✔️ Lowest EMF technology of all saunas on market — independently third-party tested
🌲 High-quality, eco-certified timber with no toxic materials used throughout the sauna that could off gas when sauna is heated.
🌈 True Wave™ technology designed to deliver consistent infrared wavelengths
🔥 Full-spectrum infrared heating combining near, mid and far infrared wavelengths
❤️ Red light therapy option — allowing you to add another element to your wellness session

But here's the thing...

The sauna itself is only part of the experience.

💚 My clients tell me they love the experience I have created
around it.

Instead of sitting in a busy gym sauna with people coming and going, you have your own quiet, private and peaceful wellness space.

You don't need to worry about bringing towels or water — I've got that covered.

You can choose to:

🧘‍♀️ Relax with guided meditation
🎶 Listen to calming music
🎧 Connect via Bluetooth and listen to your favourite podcast or playlist
❤️ Enjoy red light therapy during your session — at no additional cost

And when you're finished?

🥥 A refreshing coconut water/electrolyte drink is waiting for you to help replenish fluids and electrolytes after sweating.

But perhaps my favourite part is how easily the sauna can be incorporated into your bigger health and wellness journey.

🌟 Pair it with your regular Massage or Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Massage
🌟 Combine it with your Nutrition Program
❤️ Add it to your wellness treatment
🌟 Or simply use it as dedicated time to slow down, relax and look after yourself.

Infrared sauna only available in my home based location in Seaford Meadows.

If you'd like to experience my infrared sauna for yourself, send me a message or get in touch to book your session.

👀 Have you looked at your p**p today?

Okay… maybe not the most glamorous conversation 😂

But your bowel movements can actually give you some really useful clues about what's happening in your digestive system.

💩 The bristol stool chart is a great graphic to use to help guide what a healthy normal stool should look like.

Ideally, we're generally looking for a Type 3–4 stool, with Type 4 often considered the classic "ideal" consistency — smooth, soft and easy to pass.

But what about the other types?

🌟 Types 1–2: Often associated with constipation and slower bowel transit.

🌟 Types 6–7: Usually indicate loose stools or diarrhoea and faster transit.

And here's the important part...

One unusual bowel movement doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong.

What I'm much more interested in as a nutritionist is the pattern.

❓Are you regularly constipated?

❓Are you straining?

❓Do you feel like you haven't completely emptied?

❓Are you regularly experiencing loose stools?

❓Is bloating becoming your everyday normal?

These are all pieces of the bigger gut-health puzzle. 🌿

Your bowel movements can give us clues about things like gut motility, fibre intake, hydration and digestion — but they are just one part of the picture.

So, be honest...

👇 Which Bristol Stool Type are you most often?

And if your answer is "I don't know!" — perhaps it's time to start paying a little more attention. 😉

Your p**p isn't something to be embarrassed about.

It's information.

And sometimes, your body speaks through your bowels 💩 long before you realise something needs attention.

Hope that got you something to think about! 😉

Happy Wednesday!

Gut Transit Time...What is Yours & Could It Be a Contributing Factor to Your Bloating & Other Gut Symptoms?

Gut transit time is the time it takes for food to travel through your digestive system—from your first bite to your bowel movement.

While everyone is different, research suggests that a healthy gut transit time for many adults is around 24–48 hours, although a broader range can still be normal depending on the individual.

What's most important is the pattern: if transit is consistently very slow or very fast and you're experiencing symptoms, it's worth investigating.

👉 When transit time is too slow, waste stays in the colon longer, more water is absorbed, stools become harder, & constipation plus bloating are more likely.

👉 When transit time is too fast, your body may not have enough time to absorb nutrients & fluids effectively, which can contribute to diarrhoea & nutritional concerns.

The good news? Transit time can often be improved by addressing the underlying causes—whether that's diet, hydration, stress, physical activity, medications, hormones or your gut microbiome.

As a nutritionist, one of my goals is to uncover why your digestion isn't working as it should, so we can create a plan that's personalised to you—not just another quick fix.

❓Have you ever measured your gut transit time? 💩

If you would like further help with this, reach out via DM.

Causes of Slow Gut Motility that May Be More Than Just Eating More Fibre..

💩Slow Gut Motility = When Your Digestion Just Isn’t Moving! 💩

Common Causes of Slow Gut Motility that you may have overlooked:

2️⃣Gut Inflammation & Dysbiosis- An imbalance in gut bacteria can affect stool consistency, motility and overall gut function.

2️⃣Dehydration and Low Electrolytes -Water helps soften stool and having the proper balance of electrolytes support smooth muscle contractions in the bowel.

3️⃣Hormone Imbalances- Progesterone dominance, thyroid dysfunction and blood sugar imbalance can all slow motility.

4️⃣Pelvic Floor Dysfunction- tight pelvic floor muscles can cause incomplete evacuation and chronic constipation.

5️⃣Poor Vagal Tone- the vagus nerve is part of the nervous system and is responsible for the process of rest and digest. If you are constantly stressed and anxious you may have poor vagal tone.

6️⃣Poor Bile Flow- Bile supports fat digestion, is needed to absorb nutrients and helps stimulate bowel movements. Sluggish bile = sluggish bowels.

If constipation and bloating have become your normal, it’s time to dig deeper!

DM ‘Gut’ if you are wanting further help with your digestion!

Sign the petition to stop the increase in pesticide use on berries in Australia. ⬇️ This insecticide is banned for use on food in Europe yet Aus approves its use!

Tell the APVMA: Don't Increase Pesticide Residues on Aussie Berries!

Forever Chemicals are synthetic chemicals in our environment that don’t break down. They don’t break down in our environment nor the human body. 😬

Due to them being everywhere in our environment, every human being has come into contact with these at some point in time.

Long term exposure and excess build up can contribute to many health risks including negatively impacting the kidneys, hormones and thyroid health and even increases risk in cancer.

If you want to learn more about what forever chemicals are- I recommend watching ‘Dark Waters’ on Netflix.
It’s a real eye opener and you may also never use another non stick pan again! 😲😬

In regards to the exposure in berries- we can buy organic to reduce exposure risk.
If all organic is not affordable or easily accessible I suggest you look up the dirty dozen and clean 15 > https://www.ewg.org/foodnews/dirty-dozen.php to find out which fruits and veggies are sprayed the most compared to the ones which are sprayed the least to determine which fruits and veggies should be prioritised in purchasing organic.

Hope that helps!
