Homeopathy

If you'd rather watch a video than read a blog click here If you've searched online for information about homeopathy, you've probably found conflicting opinions. Often the first thing that comes up is that there is “no evidence” to support homeopathy, but that often stems from a paper with unusual study design. It did not include studies that were too big, too small, certain diseases, and the list goes on until they found a category for which there were no studies. But no studies, doesn’t mean no evidence, and if you go looking for no evidence, it’s likely what you will find.

If bloating, discomfort, or sluggish digestion is a regular concern, what you eat can make a big difference. Some foods actively soothe the gut, support liver function, stabilise blood sugar, and even help regulate hormones, all of which play a role in digestion.  Here are my top 10 foods to calm digestion and support overall gut health:  1.

Many people assume it’s just “normal”, but frequent bloating is oftentimes your body sending a message - and there are many practical ways to reduce it.

As a naturopath, I find myself very comfortable taking about bowel motions, as it gives me vital information about both digestion and elimination of toxins. Observing what lands in the toilet helps me to understand so much more about digestion, and as a result, how to improve it. Your bowel motions can tell you a lot about what’s happening inside your digestive system. In clinic, I often ask detailed questions about frequency, consistency, colour, and even flatulence, and how bad it smells! It’s not glamorous, but it is incredibly useful information. Many people assume that as long as they are going regularly, everything must be fine. But there are some simple signs that can indicate whether your digestion is working well — or whether it might need...
