Let’s talk about fibre. 🍓🍓🫐🫐

Most of us aren’t getting anywhere near enough. The recommendation is around 30g a day, and most adults manage closer to 20g.

Why does it matter?

1️⃣ It feeds your beneficial gut bacteria
2️⃣ It keeps your bowels moving regularly
3️⃣ It helps keep blood sugar steadier after meals
4️⃣ It keeps you fuller for longer

Easy ways to get more: vegetables, fruit, beans, lentils, oats, nuts and seeds.

Increase it slowly and drink plenty of water, or your gut will let you know about it. 😉

Acid reflux, part 3. 🔥

In part 1, we checked whether it’s actually HIGH acid and not low. In part 2, I shared products that may help soothe things.

This one is about the bigger question: WHY is it happening?

Because there is always a reason.

1️⃣ STRESS
Is your nervous system running on high alert?

2️⃣ CAFFEINE
Are you drinking more than your body is happy with?

3️⃣ HYDRATION
Are you actually drinking enough water?

4️⃣ SPINAL FUNCTION
This one is a little more nuanced. The nerves that supply your stomach come from the area between your shoulder blades. If you’re tight there, it may influence how your stomach functions, including how much acid it produces. Chiropractic adjustments may help.

Other therapies that work with the nervous system and may support you:
🌿 Acupuncture
🌿 Acupressure
🌿 Osteopathy
🌿 Craniosacral therapy

This is a whole health approach. The whole body, the whole person, not just a pill for an ill.

I really don’t want you grabbing a product to fix what is an interconnected system issue.

Acid reflux, part 2. 🔥

If you know it’s definitely HIGH stomach acid and not low (watch my last video to check), these are three of my favourite gut soothers.

1️⃣ ALOE VERA
Soothing on the gut lining from start to finish, from the mouth all the way down through the throat, stomach and digestive tract. Add a capful or a tablespoon to soups or smoothies, or take it on its own. I really like KIKI Health as a brand.

2️⃣ SLIPPERY ELM
A mucilaginous herb, which means it coats and calms the lining of the stomach when mixed into water. Think of it as putting out the fire. Marshmallow root works in a similar way.

3️⃣ DGL (deglycyrrhizinated liquorice)
Yes, it’s a mouthful. 😂 Another lovely soother for the gut and for acid reflux.

Which one works for you will depend on your individual biology and what’s causing your reflux in the first place.

And that’s the real question: WHY is your body producing too much acid?

Diet. Lifestyle. Stress. Even function, including the nerves that supply the stomach. This is a whole health topic.

But if you’re looking for somewhere to start, these are good options. 💛

Always check with your practitioner before starting anything new, especially if you’re on medication or pregnant.

🏠 THE AT-HOME STOMACH ACID TEST

You’ll need bicarbonate of soda, water and a timer.

1️⃣ First thing in the morning, before eating or drinking anything, mix ¼ teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda into a small glass of cold water (about 150ml).

2️⃣ Drink it and start your timer.

3️⃣ Note how long it takes you to burp. Stop at 5 minutes.

What it may suggest:
👉 Burp within 2–3 minutes: stomach acid is likely adequate
👉 Lots of burping straight away: acid may be on the higher side
👉 No burp after 5 minutes: stomach acid may be low

Repeat for 3 mornings in a row, as results can vary from day to day.

⚠️ This isn’t a validated medical test, just a rough guide to open the conversation. Skip it if you’re on a low-sodium diet, have high blood pressure or kidney problems, or are pregnant. And please don’t stop any prescribed medication without speaking to your GP.

Are you waiting for the NHS or Jersey Health Service to save your health?

Because we need to have an uncomfortable conversation.

Our health services are drowning. And the system was never really designed to teach you how to create health from the ground up.

It is vital for emergencies, diagnostics and medical treatment. But chronic health? That is a different conversation.

The current model is largely built around diagnosing disease and managing it. What it generally DOESN’T teach you is how to understand your own body, reduce the load you’re putting on it, and support the systems that create health.

And THAT is where personal responsibility comes in.

Not blame. RESPONSIBILITY.

Learning. Understanding. Making small changes. Then making another one.

Twenty years ago, I was at the beginning of that journey. I knew a fraction of what I know now.

One of the biggest things I’ve learnt is that you cannot throw twenty years of information at someone standing at day one. You have to start where THEY are.

So that’s what I’m doing more of moving forward: small, affordable, bite-sized ways to help you understand your health and actually START doing something about it.

Maybe you need to support your lymphatics. Reduce your toxic load. Sort out the basics. Or maybe you’re already ten years down the rabbit hole and need help working out where the hell to go next. 😂

We all start from different places. We don’t all need the same practitioner, programme or level of support.

Part of what I’m building is a way of helping you work out:
Where am I now?
What do I need next?
Who or what can help me get there?

Some of you will think I’m completely batty. That’s fine. The best ones are 😂

But by the time you decide I wasn’t quite as batty as you thought, you might be at the back of the queue.

If this resonates with you, get on my newsletter.

That’s where I’ll share education, tools, mini programmes and practitioners I believe can help you move the needle on your health.

You don’t need to understand everything today. You just need somewhere to start.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth.

We are living in a very different world to the one our grandparents grew up in.

More synthetic chemicals. More plastics. More pesticides. More ultra-processed food. More sedentary living. More artificial light. More chronic stress. More s**t our bodies have to deal with.

And yet so much of our health advice still boils down to:

“Eat your five a day.”
“Everything in moderation.”
“Your bloods are normal.”
“Take this tablet.”

It’s not enough.

And I think one of the biggest problems we have is that the people who desperately need foundational health support often don’t know where to get it.

Because this stuff needs an INTEGRATIVE approach.

Nutrition.
Movement.
Sleep.
Light.
Stress.
Nervous system regulation.
Minerals.
Gut health.
Reducing unnecessary chemical exposure.
Supporting the organs and systems responsible for processing and eliminating what the body doesn’t need.

Your body is detoxifying every bloody day.

The question is: what are you asking it to deal with, and are you giving it what it needs to do that job well?

And no, this doesn’t mean living in a bubble, eating organic mung beans and having a 28-step morning routine. 😂

It means becoming more informed.

Making better choices where you CAN.

Eating a s**t-tonne more plants.

Choosing better-quality food where budget allows.

Moving your body.

Sleeping properly.

Getting outside.

Drinking decent water.

Reducing unnecessary exposure to chemicals.

And understanding that symptoms deserve investigation, not just suppression.
