10 Signs You Could Have A Leaky Gut

10 Signs You Could Have A Leaky Gut

  If you have read my e-book Eat Yourself Healthy In 28 Days, you will know my approach is all about gut health!  WHAT’S THAT YOU SAY??  Well I’m talking about that organ that has the surface area equivalent in size to that of a tennis court and contains more good bacteria, than cells in your entire body by a ratio of around 10:1 –  that’s a mere 10 trillion!!  That may sound like a lot to get your head around, but it’s for this reason alone, that the function of your gut is key to your overall health. I

Butter vs margarine… still confused?

Butter vs margarine... still confused?

  It seems many of us are still falling victim to the clever marketing ploys adopted by manufacturers of margarine.  Claims that margarine is ‘good for your heart health’ and will ‘lower your cholesterol’, not to mention the latest Meadow lea advertisement using cute little kids to ‘guilt’ us into using margarine, or we’ll develop heart disease and die, is quite frankly totally misleading  and a load of rubbish!  I say rubbish, because that’s exactly what margarine is and I’m about to explain why.  To make matters worse, the fact margarine is endorsed by the heart foundation, sporting it’s little

Soy…NOT… "So Good"

Soy...NOT... "So Good"

  Soy has long been portrayed as a ‘health food’ when in fact nothing could be further from the truth!  The soy story sounds more like something out of a Hollywood movie….involving ‘money, power, lies and deception!’ Even big time celebrities and elite athletes have been brought onboard to help sell the soy story, as a health and even beauty food!  Yep…it seems when you have buckets of money behind you, you can make people believe anything!  And that’s just what the soy industry has done, for one simple reason… there is BIG bucks in soy, nothing more nothing less. The real story behind soy is this.  There are two types

Why I need to detox…

Why I need to detox...

  So you may recall I have spent the past couple of months gallivanting across America for work, which was all very exciting , but exhausting at the same time, and the travel, combined with the fact I was in America – land of GMO foods and high fructose corn syrup,  certainly posed it’s challenges when it came to sticking to healthy eating.  For me it wasn’t a case of not actively trying to eat healthy food, but rather the fact I was stuck on aeroplanes and in air ports every few days, along with hotels that offered a gluten fest for breakfast each day –

Are Your Pain Med’s Causing You Pain?

Are Your Pain Med's Causing You Pain?

  If you’re suffering from chronic pain and have become reliant on pharmaceutical pain medications, such as over the counter anti inflammatories  – known as NSAID’s – non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs –  like aspirin or ibuprofen, or you’re unlucky enough to have to rely on heavy duty corticosteroid anti inflammatory drugs, such as prednisolone, prednisone and medrol, then chances are your pain could become a product of these medications if you’re taking them regularly. How can pain relieving medications become the cause of pain I hear you ask?  Well quite simply because of the damage they cause to the lining of the small

Would you like a side of chemicals with your blueberries?

Would you like a side of chemicals with your blueberries?

Blueberries have long been hailed for their powerful nutritional properties, in particular their potent anti-oxidant and phyto-chemical compounds, (thanks to their dark pigment) which protect against cancer causing free radicals.  Blueberries are also one of the lowest fructose containing fruits you can eat, making them perfect as for a low sugar snack, without tipping the insulin levels into overdrive!  For these reasons blueberries are an extremely healthy food source, earning a reputation as a ‘superfood’! However……thanks to modern day farming methods…..there’s a catch.  Blueberries, (along with other berries) are one of the most chemically contaminated crops, thanks to being heavily

Who are you really getting your health advice from?

Who are you really getting your health advice from?

In today’s day and age of technology and the internet, we have seen a BOOM in accessible information online, from all over the world and from all walks of life. Like most things in life, this phenomena has it’s ‘pro’s’ and it’s ‘con’s’.  For starters, the internet has enabled us to  better self educate, providing us with more knowledge and in return, more power and choices. But when it comes to health, sometimes too much information can be  just as harmful as too little, especially when anyone can post anything, when it comes to health advice on the net. Because there is

If you wouldn’t drink it then why put it on your skin?

If you wouldn't drink it then why put it on your skin?

In previous posts I have written about many of the essential things we need to do to function at our best, one the most important being to minimise our exposure to toxins. Toxins find their way into our body through a variety of means, ranging from the obvious – alcohol, drugs, caffeine, nicotine and pharmaceutical and recreational drugs, as well as through foods such as artificial sweeteners, nitrates used in processed meats such as salami and bacon and ham, processed or trans fats, preservatives, colours, flavours and non-organic foods that have been contaminated with chemical sprays and antibiotics. But there is another

Haloumi and avocado boats

Haloumi and avocado boats

  Vegan – Vegetarian – Sugar Free – Dairy Free – Low GI – Medium GI I made this dish up one day after staring aimlessly into my fridge wondering what on earth I was going  to eat for lunch!  When suddenly inspiration was born from the slab or haloumi and coz lettuce hiding amongst the jars of various condiments. Thankfully one of those condiments was a little jar of homemade coriander and macadamia nut pesto. I had no sooner gently pan fried a couple of pieces of haloumi in  virgin coconut oil and placed them inside a few leaves of coz lettuce with avocado, drizzled with the home made pesto
