Another inspiring Gut Health talk!

I loved sharing the complexity of digestive function in a *digestible* way at the Women in Leadership Summit at the Perth Convention Centre yesterday.

A room of 25 high functioning, dedicated women who work at max capacity consistently, listened with eagerness as I delivered some simple and effective strategies that offer huge support for reducing bloating and maximising nutrient absorption, while modulating their nervous system.

I'm baaack!!
It's been a whirlwind of a reality check after having a month away in Europe.

I've been back in clinic for a week and am super impressed with how amazingly all my clients have remained committed to improving their health.

It was definitely a challenge to be away from my kitchen and my fridge full of fresh fruit and veggies.
Pub grub in England, Baguettes and cheese in Paris, Pizza in Naples, and the most divine pasta dishes in Rome, plus sandwiches, bruschetta, prosciutto, and so much gelato... these foods were rich with flavour and authenticity, but wowzers a month of foreign food is tough.

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing!!!

In Paris, I paid €5 for a nectarine, in a manic craving for something fresh 🤪

And in Florence, a decent steak on the main menu was priced at €42!!!
(No, I didn't pay 80 bux for a steak!)

I've got loads to share, so follow, stay tuned, and I look forward to connecting with you!

Tomorrow is my last day in clinic before I head off on leave.
As a small business owner and healthcare professional, leave is crucial.

When you hold space for others, you also have to remember to hold space for yourself.

And those who know me, know I don't do anything by halves! 😁
So I'm taking a month!

If you have any pressing questions, need clarity, or would like to schedule a short consult to check in before 5pm Friday 17 July, please reach out!

I will have limited access to email - but will be checking intermittently.

My suitcase is almost packed, I've got me togs, a parker, excellent walking shoes, a wise-card, compression socks, plane tickets, train tickets, even hot air balloon tickets!! Can you guess where I'm going?

High cholesterol, Perimenopause... or Both??
Check out these lovely dietary inclusions to modulate and support your health journey.

Using food as medicine can be very effective in seeing shifts in health markers, and a food first approach is crucial to achieving lasting change.

As long as you're not allergic to soy, these are a brilliant addition to your day.

We're in the thick of Winter, and the cold has set it.

Shorter days with wet weather and less sunlight plus the burden of bugs being passed from person to person, your immune system can take a hit this time of year.

No need to reach for supplements straight away - why not start with the basics.
Sometimes the foundational practises are over-looked, and clever marketing can cloud our judgement and leave us feeling like food and lifestyle strategies are not enough.

But there's a synergy between food and lifestyle that you won't get from a pill or powder. Nutrients in their original form, coupled with cofactors that signal better absorption, eaten in an environment that promotes digestive function.

Let's use food as medicine:

🔵 Adequate fibre intake - that's seeds, whole-grains, vegetables, fruit, and legumes;

🔵 Vitamin C rich foods - raw capsicum, kiwi fruit, strawberries, and citrus;

🔵 Zinc rich foods - pepitas, seafood, red meat;

🔵 Protein - eggs, chicken, turkey, salmon, edamame, tofu, yoghurt;

And then there's the nervous system.
Yes, I bang on and on about this.
As a Clinical Nutritionist I actually spend a lot of time helping my clients realise the impact that stress can have on all aspects of health.

Stress inhibits optimal digestion.
When you are in fight or flight you are not in rest and digest.

Let's use lifestyle therapy:

🔵 Sunlight - view early morning light (even if it's cloudy) to set your circadian rhythm, get your skin exposed to Winter midday sun whenever possible to stimulate vitamin D production, eat meals outside (even if you're rugged up like an eskimo);

🔵 Movement - anything! A walk, the gym, pilates, calf-raises while brushing your teeth.

🔵 Breath work - Deep, slow breaths. If you're sighing, your body is trying to regulate and one exhale won't cut it. Breathe before meals, on waking, at bedtime, in times of overwhelm.

🔵 Enjoy nature - even from the window. Notice the birds, listen to their song. Look at the trees bending in the wind, explore local bushland, be in awe and wonder as nature copes with the cold, the heavy rain, the strong gusts.

🔵 Laughter - the best medicine. Connect with friends and laugh.

Gaining Weight? Carbs are not the culprit.
At least not on their own...
With so much focus on food intake and wide spread, radical promotion of restrictive eating, there is a lot of conflicting information on carbohydrates.

Carbs have been a prominent feature in the diets of many. Especially with a high consumption of processed foods - chips, crackers, cereals, muesli bars, snack bars, biscuits, muffins, flavoured milk drinks, sweet puddings, cakes, ice-creams plus, fizzy drinks, alcoholic beverages, lollies, chocolates, energy drinks, and lunch-box snacks.

There's been a big public shift toward reducing carbohydrates - low sugar, no sugar, artificially sweetened products have become increasingly available, and a greater awareness of high carbohydrate containing foods has evolved.

When it comes to weight management, I speak to sooooooo many folks who have drastically cut carbs. They've attempted keto, tried carnivore, lived off low calorie shakes, and the results.... mixed. Some did lose a few kilos, some gained a lot more, some were starving, some lost their appetite completely, and some saw their blood markers go south.

But there was one undeniable result amongst them all:
A messed up metabolism and a damaged relationship with food.

Not to mention the disruption to their digestive health and their gut microbiome, their skin, their energy, their mood, and their understanding of 'healthy eating.'

Carbs are not the enemy.
And this is one of the targeted focus points when I teach my clients what balanced, healthy, nourishing meals are all about.

Quality carbs in the right amounts can support your goals.

The type of carb matters.
The timing of the carb matters.
The inclusions alongside the carb matters.

If you're tired of feeling restricted, if you're confused by all the advice, coaching and online influence, and if you're looking for a holistic approach that addresses all aspects of your health (not just your weight)

It's time to seek qualified guidance.

I'm Lynda Reed, a Clinical Nutritionist with a Bachelor of Health Science in Nutritional & Dietetic Medicine.

This month's A-Z of Food as Medicine, we're at V for Vinegar.
Valued for its medicinal purposes in Ancient China, Greece and the Middle East, vinegar has been used to aid digestion, boost immunity, balance blood sugar levels, reduce cholesterol, plus clean the kitchen bench!

Vinegar changes the texture of meats by tenderising the fibres, making it a very welcomed inclusion in marinades.

Very low in calories (although check labels for any added sugars), vinegar is a great way to flavour your foods.

Invigorate your salads with a variety of vinegars - choose from white, rice, balsamic, red w**e, white w**e, apple c***r, raspberry c***r... all with varying flavours.

Add a splash or two to with a pinch of spices and dried herbs, and a little glug of good quality avocado, walnut, flaxseed or olive oil, and shake up a victorious DYI dressing!

The nutrient value of vinegar varies from nothing but acetic acid and water, to polyphenols, trace vitamins, mineral salts, and amino acids.

There's benefit for diabetics, who take vinegar daily with meals, in increasing insulin sensitivity and reducing blood glucose spikes.

For some more information with a breakdown of the source of the varieties and some cooking ideas, visit: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/.../food-features/vinegar/

A simple, cheap, flavour-rich addition with medicinal properties - what will you add vinegar to?

It's a struggle!!
You feel like rubbish.
Your concerns aren't heard.
Your symptoms are dismissed because nothing is showing up in your blood tests.

Let's change the way we think about healthcare 🙌
Let's dig deeper.
Let's look at the big picture.

The body is not a sum of it's parts.
All systems work in unison.
A multifaceted approach is where we shift the needle.

High cholesterol?
Let's look at liver function, digestive function, thyroid function, inflammation, hormone balance, blood glucose regulation.

Fatigue?
Let's look at nutrient absorption, adrenal health, intestinal integrity, nervous system response.

Food intolerances?
Let's map your microbiome, investigate enzyme release, manage anxiety, promote bile production.

Weight loss resistance?
Let's investigate thyroid health, insulin sensitivity, glucose balance, stress management, macronutrient balance.

If you're looking for a new strategy,
If you're keen to address your health with an in-depth approach,

I'd love to support you!

With access to so many gadgets and gizmos are we relying on the data and ignoring how we feel?

Don't get me wrong, a love me some good data!
Measurable metrics.

Blood testing.
Microbiome testing.
Blood pressure testing.
Waist + hip measurements.

I look for patterns, trends, and the relationship between several markers.

This is all brilliant data and useful information to determine drivers of health issues and to steer strategic therapies.

Testing is great.
Tracking is great.
As long as we treat the person and not merely the test results.

This is where qualitative data comes in.
Scale-based questions, where you give me a rating based on how you gauge your health status.
And we discuss symptom severity, and timing, and what makes things better or worse.

And I zoom out to see how it's all connected, and what's happening upstream.

This determines the treatment priorities.
The initial therapeutic focus that will have the biggest impact on your health outcomes.

But if I ask you about your sleep and you turn on your gadget to scroll through the latest results, are we missing the real data?

Are we avoiding awareness?
Are we doubting our ability to feel and be in tune with our well-being?
Are we allowing a device to dictate our status?

By being 'connected' (by bluetooth or infrared) are we becoming disconnected with our body?

I think it's worth considering.

We're up to the letter U for this month's Food As Medicine focus:
U is for Ultra Lean Beef Mince!
U thought I would be stumped huh?!

Well.... I was! But then I remembered that healthy meals can include cheaper meats, using low fat, better quality versions.

Utilising ultra lean beef mince you can up your protein without the excess fat.

Undoubtably, beef mince is almost an unspoken staple in most household freezers - great for the ultimate spaghetti bolognese (Aussie style, y'know with added veg and mince meat which to the traditionalists would likely be unusual, unfathomable inclusions!)

Don't underestimate how nutritious you can make boring ol' beef mince when you find the heart healthy ultra lean variety at your butcher or local supermarket, and upgrade it with herbs and spices rich in nutrients and flavour to form your very own uber delicious burgers and snaggers - Utterly outdoing the store bought versions with their unknown ingredients!

Unveil your creative cooking skills, mix up your favourite flavours, and use ultra lean beef mince for budget friendly, flavour-filled meals!

And for those who've had their gall-bladder removed, who experience urgent, frequent, loose, slimy, and pale or yellow bowel motions - this just might make things a little less uncomfortable.
Less fat content, means less undigested fat passing through unabsorbed.
