NUTRITIONAL THERAPIST & NUTRITION COACH

Like many people, I’ve discovered the importance of nutrition and stress management when I encountered health issues that medical doctors couldn’t explain or help with.

I believe it’s about progress not perfection. Small sustainable changes made consistently over time will lead to big results. I have experienced this for myself and see this time and time again in clinic.

Did you know?

The world’s largest onion weighed more than a small dog!

The world's largest onion is 8.97 kilograms (19.7 lbs) and was grown by Gareth Griffin from Guernsey. Griffin presented the onion at the Harrogate Autumn Flower Show in North Yorkshire in September 2023, where it broke the previous record of 8.5 kilograms set in 2014. This is about the same size as a Cocker Spaniel.

Another food with immune boosting properties are onions. Onions come in several varieties, each with distinct flavours and nutritional benefits. There are yellow onions (most common) with a slightly sweet flavour; red onions, often eaten raw; white onions commonly used in Mexican cuisine and spring onions.

Onions are not only great for immune system because of its anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties but are also loved by our microbiome (it’s food for our friendly bacteria) and our liver due to its sulphur content.

For an extra punch, mix onions with garlic and freshly grated turmeric or ginger for most of your cooked meals.

Sunday was National Coffee Day.

Many of us (me included) enjoy a cup of coffee (or two) as part of our daily routine. However, the topic can be controversial from a health perspective.

First the science behind it. When you first wake up, cortisol levels (= your stress hormone) are high. This will help you get out of bed and transition from sleeping to being awake.

Consuming caffeine first thing will cause your body to produce a surplus of cortisol and too much cortisol can increase blood sugar levels and potentially leading to insulin resistance. This in turn is linked to weight gain, sleep problems and a compromised immune system. And as I previously mentioned, coffee can be a trigger for reflux symptoms.

On the other hand, moderate intake of caffeine is linked to improved alertness and enhanced cognitive function. Coffee is also a source of antioxidants which help to keep free radicals at bay and reduce inflammation.

Therefore, if you enjoy your coffee, stick with high quality without sugars and creams. Drink 60 minutes before or after eating as coffee can block the absorption of nutrients. And stop drinking coffee at midday or early afternoon (depending on your metabolism) to ensure that it’s cleared from your system and doesn’t impact your sleep.

So incredibly proud of my son who completed 3 days of cycling earlier as part of the 2024 Country 2 Country 4 Cancer Ride. He pushed through the various challenges on his journey from Paris to London, lead his team, and kept everyone motivated. So proud of his dedication and strength.

With more and more people having to face cancer, every kilometre ridden and every pound raised, helps those battling cancer and brings us one step closer to a cure.

Green tea is packed with antioxidants, particularly catechins, which help to reduce inflammation, improve brain function and decrease the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer. Matcha, a powdered green tea, is richer in catechins as the whole leaf is consumed and is used for the traditional Japanese tea ritual.

It’s also a source of the amino acid L-Theanine that promotes relaxation without drowsiness.

Try swapping your normal tea or coffee with green tea. There are many different varieties available to suit different tastes.

However, be mindful that green team contains caffeine.

Sensory Rest – more than a digital detox

Resting is more than just lying on the sofa. We have been looking at the different types of rest we need to feel truly recharged.

Sensory rest is all about giving your senses a much needed break. In our fast-paced world, we are constantly bombarded with sensory input, whether it’s sounds, sights, screens, lights etc. – all overstimulating our senses making it hard to switch off.
Sensory rest involves creating a calm and quiet environment. Here are some suggestions:
- Step away from your phone, turn off the TV or radio, dim the lights.
- Spend time in nature and breathe deeply
- Listen to relaxing music or embrace silence
- Take a silent candle-lit bath

How do you make sensory rest part of your self-care routine?

Soups are a great way to pack in lots of nutrients to support your immune system. You can make a batch and freeze one or two portions for future use if you want to try out new recipes each day.

Here are some ideas of option extras to add to your soups:
• Add some texture with some toasted seeds (pumpkin/sesame/sunflower – all work well)
• Add extra vegetables or swap vegetables for what you have available or lurking in your fridge
• Add texture by blending half the soup and keeping the other half as bite size chunks or add some raw grated carrot or beetroot at the end after cooking or blending
• Drizzle in one teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil for some extra healthy fats
• Add/top with diced fresh herbs of your choice
• If you tolerate spice, add in some ground chilli powder or chilli flakes or other spice of choice (cumin gives you that lovely warming feeling without the heat from a chilli)

Quick recipe: Coconut and mushroom soup
(Why are mushrooms good for you? Check out my post last week.)

You’ll need
- 500g mushrooms, diced
- 2 onions, diced
- 600 ml (2 cups) filtered water
- 600ml (2 cups) canned coconut milk
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Handful fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and pepper

Method:
1. Heat oil in a saucepan and add the chopped onion and when transparent, add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes.
2. Add the water and coconut milk, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
3. Blend until smooth, season with salt and pepper and top with chopped parsley.
4. Serve topped with yoghurt.
5. Enjoy!

Continuing to look at food ingredients that support our immune system, today I am looking at garlic.

Garlic helps kill bacteria and viruses. It is a powerful antioxidant and support your immune system by stimulating the multiplication of infection-fighting white blood cells, boosting natural killer cell activity and increases the efficiency of antibody production.

The active part of garlic is only generated when the garlic is crushed and unfortunately, doesn’t last very long.

To get the best out of garlic, either add it to fresh juices and drink it (although I’ve never actually tried this but am told it’s very good for you 😊) or crush fresh garlic onto meals or salads before serving (now you’re talking – that I know is yummy).

Support and balance your immune system with the Power of Mushrooms 🍄

Mushrooms contain compounds called beta-glucans which help to stimulate and activate the immune system. Medicinal mushrooms have been used for centuries to support health and wellbeing and more and more modern research is emerging that shows why. There are many types of mushrooms but here are some of my favourites:

🍄 Button Mushrooms – often overlooked, these everyday mushrooms are perfect for soups and stews and will feed your friendly gut bacteria.

🍄Shiitake – my personal favourite is versatile and easy to cook. Add them to stir-fries (great as your protein source), pasta, or even as a pizza topping.

🍄Maitake – known as the ‘dancing mushroom’ can be sauteed or added to stir-fries or soups. Maitake means dancing in Japanese and it’s got its name (allegedly) after people dances with joy and happiness when finding it in the wild because of its incredible healing properties.

Other mushrooms like Reishi, Turkey Tail or Chaga can be brewed into teas or added to broths and stocks. There are also a wide range of mushroom coffees available.

What is your favourite mushroom and how do you like to consume it? No magic mushrooms please as I would not be able to include these into a nutritional sound food plan 😊.

18 September 2024 is National Fitness Day in the UK, hot on the heels of the Olympics and Paralympics in Paris.

Whilst you cannot outrun a bad diet, regular exercise that you enjoy and stick to has many benefits especially as you get older. It maintains bone density, muscle mass, joint flexibility; supports cardiovascular health, and very importantly, enhances mood and mental wellbeing.

What’s your favourite exercise?

If you do, you may be running on empty and have not been able to recharge your batteries. Over the last few weeks, we have looked at different types of rest and today I want to focus on EMOTIONAL rest.

You may be asking what has this got to do with nutrition and digestion? Well, if you are feeling like this, this will negatively impact your digestive capacity and the chance that your body is optimally nourished to cope with life's demand is fairly minimal.

Coming back to emotional rest, we need to allow time to give ourselves space and time to process experiences in life, both exciting and challenging ones, and feel our feelings. All to often we continue on auto-pilot and battle through and then end up being totally drained despite resting physically.

We are all unique and enjoy different ways to emotionally recharge. Some people like to spend time in nature, follow self-care rituals, engage in journalling, or seek support from loved ones as well professional therapeutic help.

By observing and tending to our emotional needs, we can cultivate resilience, improve relationships and find a better sense of emotional balance.

Continuing to look at immune boosting foods, the following can be especially helpful to support your immune function if you have, or want to prevent, misbehaving cells.

Broccoli (and other cruciferous vegetables) contains sulforaphane that support detoxification and can slow down ageing and cell decay. They are also packed with anti-oxidants and other health promoting properties. But you have to eat about 10 – 15 cups per day to make an impact. Unlikely and not recommended from a thyroid and gut health perspective.

So what is the answer? Eat broccoli sprouts. Their nutrient content is 50 – 100 times more potent than in the mature plant.

You can buy fresh broccoli sports from health food shops and even some supermarkets now. Or grow your own at home using a sprouting kit and add them to your salads, sandwiches, soups, main meals… you name it.

If you are time poor, why not buy Organic Freeze Dried Broccoli Sprouts and sprinkle them on anything you eat. You only need very little and they give your food a slightly savoury/herby type of flavour.

For a hand-out on how to grow your own broccoli sprouts, put either put SPROUT into the comment box and I’ll get in touch or email hello@eatforlife.co.uk.

Stand up to Cancer Day

Receiving a cancer diagnosis can literally take your breath away and paralyses you instantly with fear. Awaiting to hear how bad it is (which in the UK can take between 2 – 3 weeks) sets you off onto an emotional rollercoaster that you don’t want to be on. Definitely made worse by Dr Google.

What seems like a lifetime, you finally start treatment which is pretty hard core with a long list of side effects, scary moments, unexplainable fatigue, digestive issues which linger long after you finish treatment, worries about the future, pain, loss of hair etc. – it’s tough!

But life goes on, and for me despite the severity of the treatment, there were more good than bad days. And I was astounded how much support there was, from expected and unexpected places, to help me back onto my feet.

If you are unfortunate to have the joined the club no-one wants to join (and based on the latest statistics it will be 1 in 2), remember that cancer is only going to be a chapter in your life, not the whole story!!

Last week, we looked at the importance of PHYSICAL rest when recharging your bodies, today I want to talk about MENTAL rest. We all know that frazzled feeling when there is too much going on in our brain and we can’t concentrate properly on anything. We live in a fast-paced, technologically advanced world and are constantly bombarded with information or triggered by stimuli, leading to cognitive overload.

Mental rest is crucial to ease cognitive strain, restore mental clarity and improve focus. Try to have a digital detox away from digital devices. Practicing mindfulness and meditation techniques will help to calm your mind. Getting out in nature or completing routine tasks that do not need any cognitive investment such as folding laundry or doing the dishes can give your brain a well deserved rest.

The added bonus is that by actively turning off your stress response, you will improve your digestion. Double win!!

What is your favourite way of giving your brain a break?

Last week, we looked at the importance of PHYSICAL rest when recharging your bodies, today I want to talk about MENTAL rest.

Over the next few weeks, I will focus on different immune supporting foods that are readily available and are easily incorporated into our daily meals.

Berries
Berries, especially dark-coloured ones are very rich in antioxidants called anthocyanidins which help support the immune system. Berries are a great source of vitamin C and zinc. Eat them fresh when in season and use frozen berry mixes for convenience. If you’re feeling adventurous why not try some acai or goji berries for an extra potent immune boost.

Black elderberries
Black elderberries can be found growing all over the UK during September and October. Compounds within the black elderberries stop cold and flu viruses from entering our cells. It’s important to cook elderberries, but they can be delicious added to jellies, syrups, sauces and stewed fruit.
For personalised advice on how to boost your immune health, contact me at hello@eatforlife.co.uk.

As we are heading into the autumn with temperatures dropping, people suffering from colds, flus and other respiratory illnesses starts to increase.

Eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, healthy fats and proteins will help reduce the risk, together with healthy lifestyle measures (movement, sleep, relaxation, hydration etc.).

But what if you are suffering from digestive issues? Will this impact my immune health? Absolutely! One aspect of the gut-immune link is that the foods we eat (and are able to absorb) will impact the diversity and composition of bacteria in your gut (your microbiome) which in turn will affect your immune cells.

We need to eat a plant rich high fibre diet to keep our microbiome happy (and in return it will produce compounds like vitamins and short chain fatty acids that our bodies need).

But, eating lots of fibrous food when your digestion in compromised, can be quite uncomfortable.

Therefore, if you want to improve your immune health, sort out your gut!

For advice, contact me at hello@eatforhealth.co.uk.

September is National Honey Month

With the global honey market being valued at just under $9 billion in 2023, there is a lot of buzz about this liquid golden nectar. It has become a popular cupboard staple to make things taste sweeter but it also has some interesting health benefits such as

- Speeding up recovery and reducing severity of symptoms when fighting colds and coughs
- Supporting the healing of burns, wounds and ulcers
- Mood boosting property
- Anti-inflammatory effects to support the digestive tract and the brain

Of course, not all honey is the same. The anti-microbial quality of honey depends on the type of honey, as well as when and how it’s been harvested. For example, Manuka honey is known to be much more potent.

Did you know that honey never spoils? Archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old.

Honey makes a great sugar substitute and works well with many recipes or can be added to drinks. It’s not just for pancakes and be blended into a delicious salad dressing.

So why not next time you feel a cold or cough coming, try out the old-fashioned trio of lemon, honey and ginger, combined in a hot drink, and see whether it helps?

The weekend is just around the corner – how do you recharge?

When we think of R&R, we tend to focus on giving our physical bodies a rest. However, there is more to us than our bodies. We are physical, mental, emotional and psychological beings which means we need to recharge our batteries on all these dimensions. Prioritising physical rest and neglecting other types of rest, can lead compromised health and well-being. Over the next few weeks, I will look at different types of rest: physical, mental, emotional, sensory, creative, social and spiritual as all of these are important.

Starting with PHYSICAL rest, this involves giving your body time to recover from physical exertion and this includes sleep and resting the body throughout the day. We need sufficient quality sleep to repair tissues, regulate hormone and support our immune system. In addition, taking breaks during the day, move away from your desk, so some gentle stretching, relax your muscles or go for a walk, can all help to reduce tension and tiredness.

For more hints and tips on improving your sleep, comment SLEEP SOUNDLY below and I’ll send you a copy of my ebook on ‘How to get a good night’s sleep’.

Chewing matters 3!

Many of us eat on the go and almost inhale our food rather than savouring it. In this final post on the importance of chewing I want to highlight that taking the time to chew until food is almost a baby food like consistency, is one of the best ways to get your digestive symptoms under control.

If you struggle to take the time to chew properly (like up to 30 times per mouthful), a helpful tip is to put down your knife and fork between mouthfuls. Rather than racing to finish a meal allow more time to chew, savour and enjoy..your stomach will thank you.

Chewing matters 2!

Chewing properly is important to help you digest your food properly. As previously mentioned, the physical process of chewing our food with the enzymes found in our saliva will start the process of breaking down our food.

But of course, in order to be able to chew our food effectively, we need to look after our mouths and teeth. Regular checkups at the dentist and focussing on oral hygiene is therefore really important in ensuring we give our stomachs the best chance possible.

Make sure to keep up with dental checkups and protect your teeth with good oral hygiene.. your stomach will thank you.

August is GASTROPARESIS month. On Monday, I’ve explained what it is and potential causes. Today, I want to provide a few naturopathic hints and tips.

It is important that you manage your diet to maintain a good nutrient status and working with someone who understands this condition can be really helpful.

- Eat small, frequent meals that are low in fat and fibre
- Manage your stress – the digestive system is managed by our nervous system and when we are stressed it prioritises saving us from danger and shuts down the ‘rest and digest’ response. Eating in a calm relaxed environment is key.
- Taking time to chew your food properly also helps the stomach to handle food and gastric emptying more effectively
- Maintain a good level of hydration
- If you are diabetic, managing your blood sugar levels is vital
- Avoid or reduce alcohol and smoking cigarettes as these can also slow down gastric emptying.
- Ensure you get regular exercise is you are able to do so. Check out the concept of exercise snacking!

For personalised ideas and plans, contact me at hello@eatforlife.co.uk.

Foods to support the cephalic response
Have you ever been to a restaurant and had a steak to find an unceremonious lump of rocket on your plate? Do you eat it or do you scowl at it?

Rocket as well as being decorative can help with the process of digestion. As a very bitter leaf, rocket can support the production of stomach acid, bile and digestive enzymes which all help to break down your food.

It is also hugely beneficial in stimulating the cephalic response. Chewing on some rocket 20-30 minutes before a meal might feel odd but it is very effective. Try it and feel for yourself.

Alternative bitter foods that will get your digestion working include nettle, broccoli, watercress, chicory and bitter chocolate.

August is GASTROPARESIS Awareness month! So with my current focus on gut health I cannot let the month slip away without talking about this topic.

You are probably thinking, what (the heck) is gastroparesis? I hadn’t heard of it either until relatively recently. It is a condition where the stomach empties too slowly after a meal. This leads to symptoms that make you feel quite miserable such as:
- Nausea and vomiting
- Stomach pain and discomfort
- Dry heaving
- Feeling of fullness
- Inability to finish a meal

Symptoms can vary from individual to individual – however, they can become life-threatening! So please speak with your doctor today if this sounds like you.

The causes of this condition are not fully understood. It can follow surgical interventions especially those to the oesophagus and abdomen as well as those that damage the vagus nerve. Or they can occur in conditions that affect the nervous system or connective tissues like Multiple Sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease. With around 25% of people suffering from this condition, it is a complication of long-standing diabetes.

In addition, certain types of medications can impact gastric emptying and therefore the severity of gastroparesis, such as opiate painkillers, anti-spasmodic IBS type medication, calcium channel blockers for heart conditions, some diabetes medications, some anti-depressants and in some people, PPIs (proton pump inhibitors). Do speak with your doctor or pharmacist if are on these meds and have concerns.

Later this week I will be sharing some general tips on how to manage gastroparesis from a nutrition and life-style perspective but for individualised advice, please contact me at hello@eatforlife.co.uk

Whether you want to be out and about and enjoy nature, play with your children and grandchildren (great weight training carrying the little one's or throwing them into the air), go travelling and attend concerts... whatever you like to do... if you're not fit, you may be struggling to be much more than a couch potato.

What are your plans for the Bank Holiday weekend? I will be going for long walks on the beach, taking great pleasure in seeing my dogs enjoy themselves. And weather allowing I might even get into the sea for a bit of cold water therapy.

What do you love doing that requires a certain level of fitness?
