NUTRITION FOR IMMUNITY I’ll admit sometimes naturopaths look past basic nutrition because we have so many complex and amazing herbs at our fingertips...we need to come back to basics!! 📚VITAMIN C - sufficient levels allow your immune system to attack pathogens while it performs damage control in the background, supporting your body’s cellular resilience. VITAMIN A - overlooked forever but a super crucial vitamin. Vitamin A is responsible for an immunoglobulin called secretory IgA which governs the protection of our immune system across all of our mucous membranes: think the lining of the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract and skin. We need Vitamin A to keep these barrier defence lines strong! ZINC - the mothership of all minerals; zinc is responsible for over 300 chemical reactions in your body. This means that for our basic functions, zinc needs to be there. On top of that, zinc has a huge role in your immune system’s ability to have standard defences, but also develop cells that can recognise and fight new pathogens like viruses 🦠 All of this info is a demonstration of why a naturopath can help support your immune resilience at this time! Combine science and reality for simple tools that can help keep your defences strong! • • • • • • #nutrition #naturopath #sydneynaturopath #defence #immunity #immunesystem #virus #covid19 #wellness #knowledge #baselinehealth #eductaion #power #support #advice #qualified

Patrick salivating over this donut is a PERFECT example of the mind-body connection required for G🍩🍩D DIGESTI🍩N If you close your eyes & think about your most yummiest favouritest food ever (it’s so fine if it’s a donut) and really focus and imagine the taste and the smell, do you find yourself also salivating?! This is the connection of your mind to your body for the act of DIGESTION 🚀You have engaged the cascade of digestive secretions, beginning with saliva in the mouth which contains an enzyme named amylase which immediately begins the breakdown of starches! Cool huh 🤓 I find this method alone really helps my patients alleviate common digestive issues such as bloating and discomfort after eating, even assisting with reflux! #reflux #bloating #digestion #naturopath #nutritionist #sydneynaturopath #nutrient #absorption #relief #mindfuleating #mindfulness #connection #rest #digest #chew #antibloat #happytummy #innerwest #sydney #clinic #annandale #camperdown #stanmore #wellness #organic #vegan #petersham #donut #patrickstar
