There’s nothing quite like an acne breakout to make you reach for any serum or cleanser that might help 🤕
Sometimes, treating acne topically can absolutely help… but sometimes the cause of the acne is far deeper than skin level.

In my practice, when a patient says that they’re struggling with their skin, I always look at their gut health. Gut issues so often show up as skin issues, so treating the gut deals with the skin.



Please note that this is not a diagnosis or personalised care - if your skin has been bothering you for a whole, please seek advice from your healthcare provider.

Is this something you’re guilty of?

Somewhere along the line, we were taught that it was normal to push through the exhaustion, the headaches, the poor sleep and the short temper until illness knocks us flat and we say: “I guess my body needed a break.”

The reality is that your body was asking for a break long before that, and a collapse in your health was the only way you’d listen.

You don’t have to earn rest. It’s not something that you achieve once you’ve worked yourself to the bone. It’s something that should be included in your regular routine, to prevent that collapse 💚

This National Women's Day, I feel like this deserves a special mention 🔬
If your health has ever felt like guesswork, that's not on you. The research is still catching up, and it's taken its time getting here.

So don't accept vague answers. Ask questions, and keep asking until something actually makes sense. You know your body, so trust that.

One thing that helps me cope with anxiety & overwhelm: Meal prepping (as cliché as that may sound).

I spend my whole day making decisions, so by the time I get home, deciding what to make for dinner, and what to have for breakfast and lunch the next day, can feel completely overwhelming.

So I meal prep.

Do I enjoy spending my Sunday afternoon in the kitchen? Definitely not 😅 It usually takes some convincing to get myself started, but I’m always grateful that I did.

Having food ready takes away so much decision fatigue. It makes busy weekdays feel less overwhelming, and I don’t end up feeling guilty because I’ve been too exhausted to put together a balanced meal.

I don’t get it right every week, and that’s okay.

I also didn’t start by prepping every meal. I began with dinners, then added lunches once that felt easy, and only later started prepping breakfasts too. Trying to do everything at once is usually the fastest way to give up.

It’s certainly not a cure for overwhelm, but taking a little of the mental load off each day has made a bigger difference than I expected. Sometimes the smallest changes are the ones that stick the most 🥗

Most people taking magnesium are taking the wrong form.
And it's usually not their fault - standing at the supplement shelf and wondering which one to pick is not easy.

If weight loss has felt harder than it should, it might not be about trying harder. 🧬

Your genes influence how your body absorbs fat, responds to exercise, and manages blood sugar. Two people can follow the same plan and get completely different results - and that difference is often biological, not motivational.

Nutrigenomic testing doesn't give you a magic answer, but it does give you and your practitioner a much better starting point with less guesswork.

Save this if you've ever felt like your body has its own rulebook. 📌

If your cycle is irregular or ovulation feels unpredictable, iron is worth paying attention to 🩸

Research is pointing to a real link. The Nurses’ Health Study II followed over 18,500 women for 8 years and found that those who supplemented with iron had a 40% lower risk of ovulatory infertility. A 2025 study in Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica found that when iron deficiency was treated in women with a history of infertility, conception rates improved and miscarriage rates dropped.

The evidence isn’t conclusive yet, but it’s consistent enough to take seriously.

One thing that often gets missed: you can have low iron stores and still show a normal haemoglobin on a standard blood test. Ferritin (stored iron) is the more useful marker, and it’s worth asking for specifically.

❗️Please don’t supplement without checking your levels first. Too much iron can be just as problematic as too little, and iron overload has real health consequences.

One of the most common hormonal imbalances I see in my practice is low progesterone 📉

Progesterone is a hormone produced in the second half of your cycle. It helps stabilise your mood, supports deep sleep, calms the nervous system, and prepares the uterine lining for either a pregnancy or a clean period.

When progesterone is where it needs to be, that second half of your cycle can actually feel good (calm, grounded and settled). A lot of women don't realise that's even possible.

When it's low, you tend to feel the opposite: anxious, wired at night, emotionally flat, puffy - and many women report feeling better when their period starts.

Can you relate to these symptoms?

Winter is hitting hard this year, and it feels like EVERYONE is getting sick. 😷❄️

If you’ve been run down, fighting off one thing after another, or just feel like your immune system needs some backup - you’re not alone.

One thing worth knowing about is biopuncture. It’s a therapy that works with your body’s natural defenses rather than against them. Small injections using homeopathic remedies, aimed at supporting your immune system and reducing inflammation from the inside out. 🌿

If you’ve tried everything and still feel like you’re struggling to stay well this season, it might just be worth exploring. 💉

Feel free to drop a comment or send me a message if you have any questions - I’m happy to chat. 📩

If you've slowed down but still don't feel like yourself - this one's for you 🌿

So many women reach this point and assume something is just wrong with them. But a nervous system that's been under pressure for a long time doesn't reset the moment life gets quieter. It takes time, and it takes the right support.

You're not broken. You've just been carrying a lot.

Is this something you can relate to?
