How to avoid unwelcome gut intruders Many people associate parasites with exotic countries, but here in the UK, we can get parasites.

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. Research suggests that we all have a unique combination of gut microbes. Your gut microbiome is as unique to you as are your fingerprints. This means that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to improving […]
Supercharge your immune system

How Emotional Freedom Technique can help you survive Christmas – watch the video
Times are tough, more so than in a long, long time. We are surrounded by situations that create a lot of stress, anxiety, fear, loneliness, and isolation.

Transition into autumn with a 5-day Charcoal cleanse
I recommend a 5-day Charcoal cleanse four times a year, around the time the seasons change in September, December, March and June – and, if possible, around the time of a full moon.
