  • This can be due to several factors, including lifestyle, food allergies, joint tissue or other more chronic issues, and needs to be diagnosed for proper treatment to provide an anti-inflammatory response.

  • With the increasing levels of potential exposure to harmful pollutants and contaminants, the role of antioxidants to help neutralize these damaging free radicals is increasingly important.

  • An imbalance of blood sugar levels results in low levels of blood sugar for energy production. Insulin resistance can then occur where the levels of blood sugar are chronically high and the levels of insulin to manage this are also high.

  • Commonly thought of as the loss of calcium in the bones, the situation can be much more complex. Whilst women can be more prone to calcium due to declining levels of estrogen, men are also at risk due to lifestyle and diet factors.

  • Whilst cold and flus are the most common and frequent infection, the ability to manage when they occur and strengthen immunity is integral for maintaining ongoing good health.

  • The link between fatigue and the ability to regulate and manage stress is a complex one. Overall, the body’s response is one of tiredness and fatigue, making us more susceptible to other complications.
