Book Club: Ultra-Processed People
Ultra-Processed People by Dr. Chris van Tulleken explores how ultra-processed foods shape our health, appetite, and society. The book explains how these foods are engineered to be addictive, disrupt metabolism, and contribute to obesity, diabetes, and chronic disease. Drawing on science, personal experience, and public health research, van Tulleken highlights how modern food environments influence behavior more than willpower. The book encourages greater awareness, food literacy, and systemic change to support healthier eating habits.
Reiki and Nutrition
Reiki offers a gentle yet transformative complement to nutrition and overall health. Reiki supports the emotional and energetic foundations that shape how we nourish ourselves by calming the nervous system. Sessions can ease digestive tension, soften long‑held patterns around food, and cultivate self‑compassion—an essential ingredient in sustainable lifestyle change. Reiki helps reduce stress‑driven eating and encourages clearer awareness of hunger, fullness, and the body’s subtle signals. When people feel grounded and connected, they make choices that honour their well‑being. Reiki becomes a quiet ally, helping nourishment feel intuitive rather than effortful.

Don’t Lose Your Balance
How steady are you on your feet? As we age, balance can decline if we do not actively maintain it. Practicing simple balance exercises can greatly reduce the risk of falls and related injuries. Your balance relies on three key systems: vision, inner ear function, and proprioception, which is your body’s sense of position. If one area is weakened, your fall risk increases. A personalized physiotherapy balance assessment and program takes just minutes and can help you stay confident, steady, and active.

Naturopathic Approach to Fatty Liver Disease
Fatty liver disease occurs when excess fat builds up in liver cells, impairing the liver’s ability to regulate blood sugar, process fats, and detoxify the body. It often develops without symptoms and is commonly linked to insulin resistance, metabolic imbalance, chronic inflammation, and lifestyle factors. A naturopathic approach addresses the whole person by supporting nutrition, metabolism, gut health, movement, and stress. Care focuses on reducing added sugars and refined carbohydrates, balancing meals with protein and fibre, and emphasizing whole foods. Key nutrients, regular movement, quality sleep, and stress management support liver function. With early, individualized care, fatty liver disease is often reversible.
Finding Your Voice with New Dentures
Talking with new dentures may feel awkward at first, but this is a normal part of the adjustment process. Your tongue and mouth need time to relearn how to form certain sounds. Practicing out loud—reading, singing, or speaking slowly—can help improve clarity and confidence. Speaking in front of a mirror or with a trusted friend can also make the transition easier. Most people notice steady improvement within a few weeks as muscles adapt. With patience and regular practice, speech becomes more natural, allowing you to communicate comfortably and confidently again.
Good Nutrition & Digestion=Good Health
No matter how clean, organic, and healthy you eat, if your body isn’t able to digest, absorb, and process essential nutrients properly, you are not benefitting from your efforts.
To do this, your stomach needs to fully digest, your intestines need to completely absorb, and your liver needs to properly process the food you eat.
One of the simplest ways to correct and improve any issue you may have with the digestive process is through nutritional testing.
If a weakness is found in a specific organ, nutritional supplementation can be added to your diet to improve the digestive process and in turn, help you benefit from your wise choices.
