“Ive been dieting for 5 years straight now and Im puffier, softer and number than ever… I must have oestrogen dominance and high testosterone”

What if I told you that over 1/2 the tests taken at our clinic come back showing FLATLINED hormones.

It goes like this…

You try to lose fat, so you skip meals, rely on coffee, exercise more.

You underfuel and overstress so aggressively that your hormones quiety tank in the background.

You think its bad willpower and bad genetics.

Its not.

Its bad strategy, bad data and bad information.

If you are ready for REAL answers, it is time to get properly tested and supported.

Take the quiz in our Bio to find out where to start with your functional testing to get the answers your body is streaming for.

Carbs are not the reason you’re not leaner. Here’s the proof 👇

FACT 1: Carbs don’t make you fat 🍠

NIH researchers let people eat as much as they wanted.

On a 75% carb diet, they ate 689 fewer calories a day than on keto.

Same hunger. Same fullness.

And only the carb diet led to significant body fat loss.

A year long trial of 609 adults? Low carb vs low fat was basically a tie.

Bonus: your active thyroid hormone goes UP when carbs replace fat.

FACT 2: Your body adapts to what you feed it 🤯
Here’s the wild one.

Before a glucose tolerance test, you’re told to eat at least 150g of carbs a day for 3 days.

Why? Because cutting carbs can make you look worse at handling them.

Your body isn’t broken. It’s out of practice.

How to retrain it:
🚶‍♀️ Short walks through the day (about 17% lower blood sugar vs sitting)
🥦 Veg and protein first, carbs last
🏋️‍♀️ Use your muscles, that’s where carbs get stored
😴 Sleep. One terrible night cut insulin sensitivity by up to 25%

FACT 3: Grazing is the real problem, not carbs 🍪
Insulin rising after a meal is normal.

Insulin that never comes down is the problem.
When people ate extra sugary snacks BETWEEN meals, their liver fat went up.

The same extra calories eaten WITH meals? No increase.

So the science says:
✅ Eat proper carb meals
✅ Stop grazing all day
✅ Move and build muscle
✅ Protect your sleep

Save this for the next time someone tells you carbs are the enemy.

Dessert belongs after breakfast, not after dinner, prove me wrong ❤️‍🔥

If you’re going to have something sweet, when you eat it matters as much as what’s in it.

On its own, sugar hits your bloodstream fast. That’s the spike, then the crash, then the cravings an hour later.

Straight after a meal of protein, fat and veg (mine was beef and vegetables), it’s a different story. The food already in your stomach slows everything down, so the sugar trickles in instead of flooding in.

And morning is when your body handles carbs best. You’re more insulin sensitive earlier in the day, so the same dessert at breakfast lands softer than it would at 9pm.

This caramel peppermint icecream in a chocoate pudding base. Its made of black sapote, avocado, banana, gelatin, bone broth protein and a little coconut sugar. Per serve:

420 calories
23g protein
9.5g fibre
12g fat
43g sugar, about half from fruit

That’s more protein and fibre than most people get from their whole breakfast, in a dessert.

Sweet things don’t need to be off limits. Pair them, time them, and build them with protein.

And my goodness this was tasty

Your mood, your skin, your cycle, your relationships, your sleep, your energy, your strength… are only as good as your diet.

When I say “invest” here… I’m not talking about money. All of these meals are pretty cheap and simple.

Invest the TIME needed to learn about nutrition.
Invest the TIME needed to learn how to source produce.
Invest the TIME needed to learn how to plate up a balanced meal
Invested the TIME needed each day to cook your meals.

Eating like this costs a lot less than eating out because you’re not prepared.

Eating like this costs a lot less than the specialist appointments and time off work because your health “failed” you.

Whatever it takes. Invest that.

Trust me, you’ll get it back 10 fold ❤️‍🔥

Most of us stop at symptoms and go straight to a pill.

Some of us get to the findings… and then go to a pill 💊

The biggest transformations come from finding the ROOT causes and addressing them through individualised and targeted diet and lifestyle changes.

But WHY are your hormones ruining your life? They don’t act in isolation.

A hormone is a chemical messenger made by glands or tissues.

Your body makes them to send a message.

And if the message they’re sending is a mess, we have to ask why your body is sending these signals.

Does it not have what it needs to send the right messages?

Is the message being scrambled by something like an endocrine disruptor or a toxin etc

Is the body in fight or flight and too stressed to send the right messages?

I’m sorry but a pill or a cream or a potion isn’t going to fix those things.

Holding onto weight? Pretty sure you have functional deficiencies? Not able to maintain muscle mass? Energy through the floor no matter how much you sleep?

You won’t believe how helpful this test is 🙏 metabolic mapping is used in an Organic Acids Test and in an EndoMAP.

Comment MEALS and I will send you a week of meals I ate on repeat to get this result in my own body 🙌
