As a Naturopath and Nutritionist, it is my passion to support my clients to live their healthiest lives. Some of the key areas to start with are diet, lifestyle, hydration, immunity, gut health and mindset. We have a wide variety of different protocols available for each, however just as the mind and body are connected, all of these key areas blend into your overall state of health.
We have recently introduced our range of Mushroom Superfood Herbs which have been very successful and are a great addition to our range of premium herbs. Today let’s focus on getting back to basics – how can we improve our overall health, especially our immunity and lung health?
Detox
What needs to go? Are you consuming sugars, processed foods, alcohol? These things are fun here and there, but too much or too often can lead to mood swings, suppressed immunity, sleep issues, anxiety, skin issues and gut problems. Detoxing is a powerful way to reset your body, spirit and mind. When I recommend a patient undergo a period of detoxification, I like to include wonderful detoxing herbs like my Burdock Liquid Herbal Extract. This truly helps the liver to remove any toxins and to reset the body.
Probiotics
Probiotics – Probiotics support gut healing and gut health because they supply the gut with billions of good gut bacteria. This good bacteria supports digestive health and recovery, can improve immune function, and replace the good bacteria that is destroyed through the use of antibiotics. I have a wide variety of probiotics in my clinic, to discuss which is best you can always book in a short or extended consultation with one of our qualified Naturopaths, this can be done directly on our website.
Lung Herbal Drops
When it comes to lung health, now has never been a more important time to be focused on immunity and lung health! Our Lung Herbal Drops are certainly our most popular and can be used on their own or part of a protocol with several other lung health and immunity herbs like Mullein, Herbal Cough Syrup, Immune Boost, CV Immune Lung Drops, Liposomal Vit C, NAC and Quercetin. Lung Herbal drops strengthen and support the lungs and improve recovery and symptoms of a viral infection of the lungs. We use a blend of Mullein, Elecampane, Albizia, Grindelia and Pleurisy root.
Remember that lifestyle is critical to your wellbeing too, which means exercise, sunlight (Vitamin D), hydration (at least 3.5-4 litres a day – most of us are dehydrated and don’t even know) and sleep are so important. Stress reduction, finding time to do more of what you love and being kinder to yourself will also help improve every area of your life.
