When the inflammation symptoms are not yet debilit

When the inflammation symptoms are not yet debilitating, we learn to live with them, only to wake up one day with a fully-blown chronic illness.

If you are feeling average, despite being told by your doctor your blood test results are ‘normal’ - let me help you to address your health concerns using functional and root-cause nutritional tools.

Most of my clients are starting their healing journeys with suboptimal digestion and blood sugar disregulation. These two foundations are most common root causes of all chronic diseases.

All you need to do is to give your body the right environment to heal. That environment includes everything that your body absorbs every day - nutrients and toxins in water, air, food, light, energy, skin care, clothes, movement and information.

I am here to help with simple healing protocols designed with your lifestyle and character in mind. No expensive testing or a myriad of supplements, just simple and gradual overhaul of old every day habits that are causing your symptoms today.

Send me a message here or via my website nourishingworks.com and let’s get you feel your best today, so you can enjoy life to the full in the future.

If you’ve been following me for a while you’d

If you’ve been following me for a while you’d know that I’m a huge fan of Cod Liver Oil for its amazing nutritional properties. Let’s dive into the benefits of Cod Liver Oil (CLO) again.

➰CLO boosts immune system: Rich in Vitamin A and D, Cod Liver Oil helps strengthen your immune system, helping you to detox those pesky bugs and toxins. 🐟

➰CLO supports brain health: Omega-3 fatty acids, found in Cod Liver Oil, play a crucial role in maintaining brain function and cognitive health. Keep your brain sharp and focused! 🧠

➰CLO promotes healthy bones and teeth: Thanks to its high Vitamin D content, Cod Liver Oil aids in the absorption of calcium, promoting strong teeth and bones. 🦷💪

➰CLO is good for the heart: Omega-3 fatty acids also have heart-healthy benefits, such as reducing inflammation and improving overall cardiovascular health. ❤️

➰CLO improves mood and mental well-being: Vitamin D has been linked to improving mood and combating depression. Say goodbye to the blues! 🌞

Interestingly, Dr. Price always gave cod liver oil together with high-vitamin butter or butter oil. He found that cod liver oil on its own was relatively ineffective but combined with high-vitamin butter or butter oil produced excellent results. So your diet should include both cod liver oil and butter from grass-fed cows. 🐟🧈

💡 Pro tip: It's always best to consult with your functional nutritionist 🙋🏻‍♀️before adding any new supplements to your protocol.

Not to sound like a broken record, but if you are

Not to sound like a broken record, but if you are experiencing gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn/GERD, bad breath, rosacea or depression - chances are that you have LOW STOMACH ACID or hypochlorhydria.

In this post, I give you eight natural ways to heal low stomach acid, and in the comments - you’ll find instructions for a simple DIY Stomach Acid Baking Soda Test.

Are you on a journey to heal low stomach acid and to address digestion issues? Have you used any of these tips or supplements before?

Do you track your food? Tracking your food, feel

Do you track your food?

Tracking your food, feelings and reactions to the food you eat can be a useful exercise for gaining more insight into what you're putting in your body. It can also be a tedious endeavour that sucks all the joy out of eating. 😅

If you're going to invest the time - and it can be quite time-consuming if you include any variety in your diet - let's make sure it's not a waste.

You might want to track your food for a short period of time if:
1. You have a goal where hitting a specific macronutrient and/or caloric intake is important.

2. You're conducting an experiment and want to see how your hunger changes when you eat more protein and less fat, or if your sleep improves if you increase your total carbs by a certain amount.

3. You suspect you aren't eating the right amount. For example, some people find that keto diet dramatically suppresses their appetites to the point where they need to intentionally eat more.

You don't need to track your food if:
1. You feel good and aren't looking to change anything.

2. You stick to the same basic meals most of the time.

3. You just don't want to. Your desire to eat intuitively outweighs your desire to manage your food intake.

You shouldn’t track your food if it triggers unhealthy eating behaviours or anxiety, or it otherwise messes with your mental and emotional well-being. Saying all that, there's no point in stressing. You should view tracking as a helpful but imprecise method of gathering data. Don't micromanage to the point of causing yourself grief or anxiety.

Best food tracking apps?

There are lots of options out there. I personally like @myfitnesspal and @cronometer_official - both free apps and their desktop version have everything you need. The entries are all based on official food databases, so it's as accurate as you can get, and it provides pretty granular nutritional info.

If you track your food, what insights or benefits have you found? What app or tool do you prefer and why?

SAUERKRAUT RECIPE - like, save and share! 🙌🏻

Try making this basic sauerkraut recipe, then experiment with adding different veggies and herbs to your next batches for variety of flavours, colours and probiotics.

Makes about 1 kg

Ingredients
🥬1 medium cabbage, cored and shredded
🥬1 tablespoon of caraway seeds
🥬1 tablespoon of black peppercorns
🥬2 tablespoons of sea salt

Method
🥬In a bowl, mix cabbage with caraway seeds, peppercorns and sea salt. Pound with wooden pounder, meat hammer or massage with hands for about 10 min to release juices.
🥬Place in a 1L, wide-mouth mason jar or ceramic pot and press down firmly with a pounder or your fist until juices come up to the top of the cabbage.
🥬The top of the cabbage should be at least 3 cm below the top of the jar. Cover tightly and keep at the room temperature for about 3 days before transferring to cold storage.
🥬You can eat your sauerkraut straight away, but it improves with age!
