Probiotics can improve your IBS symptoms
IBS is a complex set of symptoms and triggers, so any treatment protocol needs to be tailored to the individual. We all have different health conditions and medications we take, as well as unique symptoms, gut microbiomes, genetics, history, eating habits, responsibilities, and work patterns. I receive many, many enquiries from people looking for ‘IBS […]
Antibiotic use as a risk factor for IBS

Can probiotics reduce period pain/PMS?
Our bodies are a lot different at age 50 than they are at 17. Our hair changes colour, our skin looks different, our metabolism slows down – and our periods change too. While there’s no such thing as a ‘normal period’, every woman’s menstrual cycle is unique and can fluctuate throughout her lifetime. The release […]
Five daily habits to support your digestion
Gut health is crucial year-round, but during winter, our dietary and lifestyle habits tend to shift, often leading to digestive discomfort.
