Optimising your health by eating and exercising for your Metabolic Body Type is a great way to fast track results!
Have you ever noticed how some people can wake up and inhale sausages, eggs and bacon for breakfast and feel great, whilst a meal like that would make others feel tired and sluggish? Or when you eat that really healthy salad sandwich for lunch, but an hour later you feel drained, tired and hungry?
The fact is that everyone is different, so understanding and eating according to your metabolic type (known as somatotype) can have a massive effect on your energy levels and overall health.
Clients who follow their Metabolic Body Type often have:
*improved energy levels
*effective weight management
*reduced bloating and *improved sleeping patterns

I haven’t spoken much about this on here, but my journey into the power of integrative medicine began once I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism after falling pregnant with baby #2.
After being prescribed Levothyroxine medication and using it for 5 years, I decided I wanted to try and find an alternative route to try to treat the root cause and fully heal my body. That’s when I met Dr. Jasmina Hagan, a functional medicine doctor who guided me over 6mth using targeted nutrition.
In this process, I was able to wean off of my medication & restore my thyroid hormones to healthy levels.
For me, it was by implementing a few easy nutrition strategies:
🌿 Adding seaweed into my day to make sure I was eating my daily iodine requirements (150mcg per day)
🇧🇷 Eating 5-6 Brazil nuts per day to meet my daily selenium requirements (55mcg per day minimum)
🌾 Removing gluten from my diet: Molecular mimicry between gluten and thyroid proteins (specifically glidin) share structural similarities with proteins found in the thyroid gland. This may trigger an immune response, contributing to inflammation. Gluten consumption could also increase intestinal permeability (leaky gut) and lead to the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, potentially impacting thyroid health.
I know thyroid healing may not be so straightforward for everybody, and we must always work with a specialist... However, adequate (ideally optimal!) vitamins and minerals are the foundation for our body to function properly, and definitely worth investigating, and understanding your levels.
I talk a lot about these topics in my Healthy Her podcast 🎙️available in the link in my bio.

My recent segment on @thetodayshow was all about the importance of preparing the body for pregnancy and birth. Whilst it was a super fun segment (complete with David and his watermelon baby!), on a serious note, I have observed over my career that pregnancy and those first years post baby are a time when I see the sharpest decline in both physical and mental health of women. I won’t go into all the reasons in this short post but that’s why I feel passionate about supporting women to continue to exercise safely throughout their pregnancy. Some incredible women supporting this mission are @thepregnancyprocess @mumsafe.com.au and @lyzevansphysio If you are planning on falling pregnant, preggers or know someone who is, share this message with them and know that there is SO much support out there to help you navigate this important period. The women that continue to exercise often report back it was a game changer for them physically and emotionally. ✨💗#pregnancyexercise #pregnantlife #familyplanning
