Recurrent symptoms down south? We can take the guesswork out of your signs and symptoms with an easy at-home va**nal microbiome test.

Instead of relying (unsuccessfully) on recurrent Cannestan treatments for thrush, antibiotics for BV or just hoping it’ll pass eventually, comprehensive va**nal microbiome testing shows exactly what bacteria or yeast may be present, any STIs or viruses hanging around, what your pH is doing (note: pH plays a crucial role in keeping her healthy & happy), whether or not you have the all-important Lactobacillus species present (note again: not all Lactobacillus subspecies are equal in the va**na!) and even if you’re more likely to experience discomfort, dryness and irritation with in*******se because of certain species overgrowth (Prevotella we’re looking at you)

Imbalances within the va**nal microbiome are not only physically uncomfortable and unpleasant, they’re detrimental to feeling confident and comfortable within your body, within intimacy and with partners. Medically, bacterial and viral pathogens in the va**na can impact pelvic inflammation, bladder health, fertility and even miscarriage risk. We know more about the importance of a healthy va**nal environment now than we ever have before, so if you need some support, we’ve got you covered.

Skin Client - Before & Afters

This beautiful client came to see me with persistent, inflamed acne on her lower jawline and chin, and we got straight to testing to assess her gut health and hormone levels.

Her test results showed very elevated prolactin - our breastfeeding hormone that can inhibit ovulation (note, she wasn’t and never has breastfed), which has a significant carry-on effect to elevated androgens + oestrogen, PLUS can increase sebum production. Hello hormone imbalance + excessive oil on the skin.

That, combined with a bacterial overgrowth and low butyrate levels shown on her gut microbiome testing meant that we did a combination approach of gut + hormone work. We used appropriate antimicrobial herbs, prebiotics to increase beneficial butyrate levels (low levels are linked to acne in research), hormonal support to lower prolactin levels and clear hormones via the gut & liver pathways, plus beautiful potent omega 3 fish oil to support balanced sebum production and lower inflammation.

Within weeks her skin started to improve, and a few months in this client is barely getting a PMS pimple now, let alone a full-blown breakout. She’s chuffed and so am I, with next steps being to retest prolactin levels, reduce our treatment plan to maintenance supps and see a skin therapist for scarring support (hello THE INTEGRATIVE STUDIO and Beauty and Balance )

No masking hormonal complaints or band-aiding with “quick fixes” - she did the hard yards and has given me permission to share her great results ✨

If you’re a dairy-free coffee drinker, here are my top milk choices that you can mostly find in Coles or Woolies (tiger nut is still a bit hard to find but I buy mine at Wollongong IGA)

All these milks froth nicely on the machine and none contain vegetable or seed oils - only olive oil. Veg and seed oils are rampant in our western diet, and are high in omega 6 fatty acids, which in excessive amounts can act as pro-inflammatory fats, especially when they are more frequently consumed than our omega 3 fatty acids.
Vegetable and seed oils are made via processes of bleaching and heat-treatment to make them stable, and are used in loads of packaged and processed foods, so most people are consuming excessive amounts in their daily diet.

If you’re buying dairy-free milk check the ingredients list and see if it contains oils - and try to stick to olive oil where you can 😘

Ps I realise it looks like I’m a cafe and stock all these options but I have family & friends visiting this week so want to be prepared for all the coffee milk requests thrown at me (or rather Ben, who if he saw this would be like “when do you ever make the coffees?” 🙃)

Super tired in the days leading up to your period? Craving all the food, or maybe chocolate and carbs in particular?

That’s your body trying to tell you something. We do in fact require a little more daily calories in the days before our period is due, so these symptoms are for good reason.

Skip the half a block of choccie after dinner and increase your complex carbs AT dinner instead (and then have a couple of pieces of dark choccie too cos )

What I’d be taking to Bali as a Naturopath and mum to avoid Bali belly in my family

I have loads of clients travelling to Bali at the moment and we always have a quick chat about what supplements they can take with them to avoid getting the dreaded Bali belly whilst there. So I’m sharing my top recs, all available at a good chemist or health food store.

// Slippery elm - to coat and soothe the gut, especially useful if you do get the runs or feel like your gut is off.

// Travelan - colostrum that is clinically proven to reduce the risk of contracting E.coli, take before each meal

// SB Floractiv - a probiotic that “crowds out” bacteria we don’t want in the gut, so works as a preventative and a treatment. For best effects start taking at least 7x days before your trip and keep using throughout

// Activated Charcoal - a traditional naturopathic remedy to use at first signs of food poisoning, charcoal acts as a binder and helps to clear bacteria out of the digestive system. Use at first signs of a bad belly

// Iberogast - digestive herbs that quickly reduce nausea, bloating, gas and gut pain, I’d be using this before meals when eating things I don’t usually eat and at any time when experiencing any of these gut symptoms
