The role of fat-soluble vitamins in hormone balance
Hormones play a significant role in our health and while it’s natural for them to change during certain life stages, if they are out of balance, they can cause a variety of symptoms and conditions. When we experience hormonal problems, it is our body’s way of letting us know that something is amiss.
What is a well formulated supplement?
There is a wealth of research highlighting symptoms and diseases linked to poor nutritional status, and hence, supplementation is increasingly becoming a practical solution to supporting our health and delivering micronutrients that are diminishing from our food. Supplement recommendations are widespread and can become a minefield, and it can be difficult to know sometimes which supplement is right for you, if it is of good quality and what you should be looking for on the label.
Healthy ageing: nutrition and lifestyle support
With an ageing population and a rising life expectancy, it is more important than ever to consider how to stay healthy as we age. Over 65s now make up almost 20% of the UK population1, and with a rise in chronic diseases in older people and a high number of people living with co-morbid conditions2 it’s become clear that earlier interventions are needed to keep us healthy.

Keeping well on holiday
Whether we are taking time out, exploring new places, relaxing, adventuring or just having a change of scene, holidays are a valuable and wonderful part of our lives. Unfortunately, they can sometimes be marred by illness or discomfort. A lecturer once said that we would never be ill when we travelled if we moved at horse or walking pace and adjusted to the changes in the environment, food and water as we went. While this is hardly feasible, there is support we can give ourselves if we recognise some of the pressures travelling puts our body under.
Obtaining optimal health on a budget
As we enter a cost-of-living crisis, we are all feeling extra pressure in our pockets with difficult choices to be made on where our finances are most keenly needed. It can be a time of high stress, where the need to survive can over-ride supporting long-term wellness. However, with increasing pressure on the NHS, it is now more important than ever to focus on health and mental wellbeing to maintain optimal physical and cognitive function during this challenging period.
Your guide to a healthy pregnancy
Pregnancy provides a unique and critical window of opportunity to implement healthy dietary habits, and balanced maternal nutrition during pregnancy is important not only for the health of the mother but also to provide the right environment for optimal development of the baby. Nutritional status of the mother at conception and during pregnancy can also determine, at least in part, the risk to the foetus of developing disease in later life. In the absence of adequate nutrition, the foetus will ensure preservation by limiting growth, which results in an infant with a higher insulin response to food and less growth of muscle (including the heart), nephrons and bones.
