Yep, homeopathy is used by royal families and the "elites" world wide.

John D Rockefellar (one of the key founders of the western medical model) was a lifelong user and supporter of homeopathy in his personal life while simultanously having it removed from the medical curriculum.

Sodium ascorbate is a buffered form of Vitamin C that is gentle on the stomach and easily absorbed.

Vitamin C is one of the body's most important antioxidants and is involved in hundreds of biological processes, including immune function, collagen production and tissue repair.

Unlike most animals, humans cannot produce their own Vitamin C and must obtain it from food or supplementation.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

I call it the MVP for a reason! It's great for:

Immune system function
Collagen production
Wound healing and tissue repair
Antioxidant protection
Histamine regulation
Supporting the body's response to physical and environmental stress

Many practitioners consider Vitamin C one of the most useful nutrients to have on hand as part of a natural first aid kit.

HOW TO TAKE IT

Sodium ascorbate is most commonly taken as a powder mixed into cool water, juice or smoothies.

Avoid adding it to hot drinks, as heat can reduce Vitamin C content.

GENERAL DOSING

Many people use bowel tolerance as a guide for determining their individual Vitamin C requirements.

1 teaspoon = approximately 4g (4,000mg)

Requirements can vary significantly depending on age, body size, lifestyle, stress levels and overall health.

WHAT IS BOWEL TOLERANCE?

Bowel tolerance refers to the point at which the body has reached saturation and excess Vitamin C begins drawing water into the bowel, resulting in loose stools.

This is generally considered a sign that the body has received more Vitamin C than it can currently utilise.

WHAT ABOUT CHILDREN?

As a general guide:

Babies: a small pinch
Toddlers and young children: 1/8 teaspoon
Children 6–12 years: 1/4 teaspoon
Teenagers and adults: 1/2 teaspoon

Sprinkle on avo crackers, pop it straight on the gums or sneak it in as salt on whatever your kids will eat while they're sick. The key is small doses throughout the day especially when sick.

Spongia Tosta - Dry, barking coughs + croup

If you've ever heard a cough that sounds like a seal barking, you've probably heard the type of cough that Spongia Tosta is traditionally associated with in homeopathy.

Made from roasted sea sponge, Spongia Tosta is one of the most well-known homeopathic remedies for dry, harsh, barking coughs that can feel worse at night or after midnight.

In traditional homeopathic practice, Spongia Tosta may be considered when symptoms include:

✔ A dry, barking or croup-like cough
✔ A sensation of dryness in the throat or airways
✔ Difficulty breathing associated with coughing episodes
✔ Symptoms that worsen during sleep or after midnight
✔ Relief from warm drinks or warm food

As with all homeopathic remedies, Spongia Tosta is selected based on the individual's unique symptom picture rather than a diagnosis alone.

If you're unsure whether Spongia Tosta is the right remedy for you or your family, seek advice from a qualified homeopath who can assess your specific symptoms and health history.

Babies are born with an immature digestive system and like anything, there can be a range of factors that influence how long it takes for their system to fully mature.

Some things that may influence bub's gut health at birth include:

- maternal gut health
- maternal nutrient deficiencies
- maternal inflammation
- antibiotic use during pregnancy and/or labour
- significant stress
- genetic predisposition
- feeding
- pet exposure
- diet as solids are introduced
- birth trauma
- v@ginal vs csection

The good news is that with the right support, babies have incredibly adaptable systems and we often see results very quickly with just a few small changes.

Every baby is unique, which is why taking the time to understand the whole picture is so important when supporting gut health in infancy.

Crazy right?

It's hard to believe that something so important is so delicate but this is why I always remind my clients that their gut was designed for a time where it was minimally stressed and burdened by toxins.

I will always recommend that you purchase as much organic or sprayfree produce as possible because I see the results of toxin burden in clinic every single day.

However, I also know that having a guide like this can be really helpful.

As a rule of thumb, anything that has a very thin skin or a skin you eat, should be prioritised as organic or spray free as possible.

This list doesn't include meat, should we talk about organic vs conventional meat?
