Diabetes Type 1, Type 2 & Gestational: How Naturopathy can support you naturally and holistically
November shines a light on diabetes — a condition that’s more common than we realise and deeply connected to our hormones, gut health, and stress levels.

You’ll learn about the early signs like insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, how conditions such as SIBO and perimenopause intertwine with blood-sugar balance, and how technology like continuous glucose monitors can help you (and your practitioner) better understand your body’s unique patterns.
It’s all about small, sustainable steps — the kind that bring calm, balance, and energy back into your daily life.

How your microbiome affects both your gut and heart health and why oral health matters
While most people associate gut health with digestion, the microbiome’s effects go far beyond the digestive system. One of the most critical but often overlooked connections is how gut health impacts cardiovascular health and the critical role oral health plays in this gut-heart connection. The mouth is the gateway to the digestive system, and the bacteria that thrive there can directly impact not only your gut microbiome but also your cardiovascular system.

Unlocking Mental and Digestive Wellbeing: Exploring the Heavy Metal Connection
Are you are experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, brain fog, poor concentration or sleep issues? Are you seeking holistic pathways towards your mental health. In a lot of cases, heavy metals were one of the underlying causes of my clients mood and digestive disorders.
Heavy metals enter our body through the gastrointestinal tract, skin, or via inhalation. Toxic metals have proven to be a major threat to human health, mostly because of their ability to cause membrane and DNA damage, and to disrupt protein function and enzyme activity.

Could you have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)?
There are many common presenting symptoms that both irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) have. These include - abdominal pain or cramping, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea or both, burping, flatulence, reflux and food sensitivities.
As a SIBO Naturopath I work with many people who have these symptoms as they have digestive issues. I find that it is important to be tested for SIBO, so that you are on the correct treatment plan as these symptoms are very common. Research has shown that 84% of people who have IBS and who do the SIBO Lactulose Breath Test (the most common one) test positive to SIBO.
