Heartburn, bloating, indigestion or that uncomfortable “heavy stomach” feeling?

✓ Review how and when you take reflux medicines
✓ Discuss products that support digestive comfort
✓ Recognise when your symptoms need further investigation

Seek medical advice for difficulty swallowing, unexplained weight loss, vomiting blood or black stools. Call 000 for severe or persistent chest pain.

🧠 Your brain deserves some attention too!

A big thank you to Blackmores for yesterday’s training on cognitive health and the launch of the new
Blackmores Cognition Ultra

One of our biggest takeaways? Cognitive health matters throughout adulthood — whether we’re studying, working, juggling busy lives or wanting to support healthy brain function as we age.

We learnt more about -citicoline, a source of choline that supports important brain processes. Choline is involved in producing acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter important for memory, learning and attention. 🧠✨

Blackmores Cognition Ultra has been developed to support focus, attention, memory recall and information processing — because looking after our cognitive health should be part of looking after our overall health.

Thank you Blackmores for a great night of learning! 💛
