Could nutrition help reduce endometriosis pain?

Emerging research suggests it might.

A recent systematic review and meta-analysis of 9 randomised controlled trials involving over 500 women with endometriosis found that anti-inflammatory nutritional supplements were associated with a significant reduction in pelvic pain.

Some of the supplements studied included:
✨ Omega-3 fatty acids
✨ Vitamins D, C & E
✨ Melatonin
✨ Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA)
✨ Milk thistle (silymarin)
✨ A traditional Chinese herbal formula

The greatest improvements were seen when supplementation was continued for more than 8 weeks, highlighting that consistency is key.

While the overall quality of the evidence was rated as low (mainly because the studies used different supplements, doses and treatment approaches), the findings are encouraging. They reinforce what I see in clinic every day—that reducing inflammation and supporting the body with the right nutrition can be an important part of a holistic endometriosis management plan.

Endometriosis is complex, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Alongside appropriate medical care, I look at nutrition, gut health, hormones, inflammation, lifestyle and targeted supplementation to create an individualised plan.

If you’re living with endometriosis and feel like you’ve tried everything, it may be worth exploring whether a personalised nutrition and supplement strategy could help support your symptoms.

Have you found any natural strategies that have made a difference to your pain? I’d love to hear your experience.

If you’re someone who gets cold sores, I wanted to share something that made a real difference for me.

Recently, I used red light therapy as soon as I felt a cold sore developing. I sat in front of my red light panel for around 5–10 minutes, several times throughout the day.

For me, the results were remarkable. It seemed to calm the area, support healing, and the cold sore resolved much more quickly than I would normally expect.

While everyone’s experience will be different, research suggests that red and near-infrared light may help support tissue repair and reduce healing time for cold sores, although more high-quality studies are still needed. (PubMed⁠)

The key is to start as early as possible, ideally when you first notice that familiar tingling or itching.

If you’ve been considering red light therapy for skin health, recovery, pain, or general wellbeing, I still have an exclusive 20% discount available.

Have you ever tried red light therapy for a cold sore or another skin concern? I’d love to hear about your experience in the comments.

Please note: This is my personal experience. Red light therapy is a supportive therapy and is not a cure for the herpes simplex virus that causes cold sores. If you experience frequent, severe, or persistent cold sores, please speak with your healthcare practitioner.

🌸 What if we looked at menopause the way the Japanese do?

Earlier this year I was lucky enough to visit Japan during the beautiful Sakura season, and one thing really stood out to me… life felt calmer, gentler and more connected to nature.

In Japan, menopause is called Konenki - time of transition and renewal, rather than something to fear.

Instead of simply “pushing through” hot flushes, poor sleep, brain fog, weight gain and fatigue, what if this stage of life became an opportunity to nourish yourself and embrace healthy ageing?

Many traditional Japanese habits naturally support hormonal health:
🌿 Plenty of vegetables
🫘 Tofu, miso & edamame
🐟 Fish & seafood
🥬 Fermented foods for the gut microbiome
🍵 Green tea
🚶‍♀️ Daily movement
💚 Community, nature & slowing down.

Of course, no two women are the same.
As a naturopath, I believe menopause deserves an individual approach. Your symptoms may be influenced not only by changing hormones but also by your gut health, thyroid function, vitamin D, iron levels, stress, inflammation and overall lifestyle.
This is where personalised testing and a tailored treatment plan can make such a difference.
Perhaps the biggest lesson I brought home from Japan wasn’t just their food or beautiful scenery.
It was the reminder that ageing isn’t something to fear. It’s something to embrace.
Maybe menopause isn’t the end of a chapter...
Maybe it’s the beginning of one of your healthiest, happiest and most confident seasons yet. 🌸💚

Is your gut trying to tell you something?

Bloating…
Irregular bowel habits…
Reflux…
Food sensitivities…
Low energy…
Brain fog…
Skin issues…
Hormonal imbalances…

These symptoms often don’t start in isolation—they can be signs that your gut needs some extra support.

Your gut is home to trillions of microbes that influence everything from digestion and nutrient absorption to immunity, inflammation, mood and hormone balance. When your gut microbiome is out of balance, it can affect your whole body.

That’s why I’ve created my Gut Health Program—a personalised approach to understanding what’s happening beneath the surface and helping you restore balance.

Depending on your individual needs, your program may include:
✔ Comprehensive health assessment
✔ Personalised nutrition and lifestyle plan
✔ Functional gut testing (including microbiome testing if appropriate)
✔ Practitioner-quality nutritional supplements
✔ Individualised herbal medicine
✔ Ongoing support to help you achieve lasting results

There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to gut health. Together we’ll uncover the underlying drivers of your symptoms and create a plan that’s tailored specifically for you.

✨ Better digestion.
✨ More energy.
✨ Reduced inflammation.
✨ Improved overall wellbeing.

Your journey to better health starts with your gut.

📩 Send me a message or book a discovery consultation to find out if the Gut Health Program is right for you.

After 14 days on the Nourish & Reset, here's what women tell us changed:

Bloating settled. Sleep deepened. Energy levelled out. That afternoon crash? Gone. The heaviness after meals? Much lighter. The 3am wake-ups? Fewer.

None of this is a coincidence. When you give your gut, your liver, your adrenals, and your nervous system what they actually need, they respond. That's the whole idea behind this program.

Real food. Wholesome nutrition. A clear daily plan. 14 days.

Drop "RESET" in the comments and I'll send you the details.
