Christine Ludke Naturopath Christine has retired and her naturopath daughters Shilo Mason and Tia Brennan have taken over the business and now support her clients.

Christine started her practice over 30 years ago on the Atherton Tablelands; she held Clinics in Mareeba and also in Cooktown during the early years. Her Tutor and Minder during this time, Ashley West of Ravenshoe - inspired, then supported Christines’ desire to break the shackles of the past as well as an entrenched health system and assist people to be informed and responsible for their own health management. Mr West was a great believer in the Practitioner being the Holistic Diagnostic not just the Healer of issues with which the client approaches the Practitioner. This then became Christine’s’ passion; to carry on this dream of making a difference to society and the empowerment of people to recognise their individuality and so nutritional and biochemical needs. Over several years in the early 1980’s Christine travelled far and wide to get access to training from the most knowledgeable Lecturers in their fields of expertise; the late Robert Lucy who followed on from Joseph Angerer in Iridology; Biochemists, Dr Henry O’Seiki and Dr Ian Brighthope; all highly renowned within the “Alternative Medicine Field”, became her inspiration. Christine continues, to this day, attending National Seminars accessing the latest research. Iris Diagnosis or Iridology was almost unknown to the Far North when, in the mid 1980’s Christine bought her first “Iris-Scope”. Christine became affectionately known as the “Looky Eye Lady”. After moving to Cairns at the end of 1989 for a short time, Christine, then set up Practice in Mission Beach in early 1990. “The Beach” became her home, for twenty years, from where she ran a very successful business, however she continued Cairns Clinics every Saturday for nearly 20 years. Cairns and Yungaburra Clinics are both booked through the Cairns clinic and supplements are supplied and available through both clinics

These gut-friendly cookies are an easy way to turn simple, fiber-rich ingredients into a delicious homemade snack. 🍪🌿 The combination of oats, ground flaxseed, and chia seeds provides different types of fiber, while almond butter adds healthy fats and creates a soft, satisfying texture.

To make them, first combine oats, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, cinnamon, and baking powder. In another bowl, mix almond butter, honey or maple syrup, and one egg. Combine everything and let the mixture rest for about five minutes so the seeds can absorb some moisture.

Shape the dough into small cookies, place them on parchment paper, and bake at 175°C (350°F) for 10–12 minutes, until lightly golden. Let them cool before eating.

They’re especially tasty alongside yogurt, kefir, berries, or simply on their own. A simple recipe that makes adding more fiber to your day surprisingly enjoyable. 💚

🌿🏠 Did you know? That little spider plant on your shelf may be doing more than simply making a room look greener.

One of the most famous studies of houseplants and indoor air came from NASA. Researchers placed plants inside sealed experimental chambers containing pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene and trichloroethylene to investigate whether plants could help clean air in closed environments.

Spider plants performed surprisingly well.

In NASA's experiments, spider plants reduced substantial amounts of formaldehyde over 24 hours. Some retellings of the research report reductions approaching 95% under specific sealed-chamber conditions.

And there's an important detail: the cleaning effect wasn't coming from the leaves alone. NASA's later work found that the roots, soil and microorganisms living around the roots played a major role in removing pollutants.

Research has also found spider plants can capture particulate matter from indoor environments. A study published in Environmental Science and Pollution Research found spider plants accumulated airborne particles across different indoor settings, suggesting their leaves can act as natural collection surfaces for microscopic particles.

This may also help explain the connection with mold spores. Because mold spores are microscopic airborne particles, they can settle onto broad leaf surfaces. The plant's leaves, moisture exchange and surrounding microbial ecosystem could theoretically help capture and interact with some of these particles as they move through indoor air.

💡 Try this: Keep a healthy spider plant indoors and regularly wipe its leaves so dust and particles don't build up on the surface.

What looks like a simple houseplant is actually a living biological system—constantly exchanging gases, moisture and microscopic particles with the environment.

🌿 Sometimes nature's air filters are already sitting on your shelf.
