It is very common for people to associate fatigue with low iron. The problem is that tiredness, by itself, does not tell us why someone is tired. Fatigue Has Many Causes Feeling tired can result from a wide range of factors, including poor sleep, stress, busy lifestyles, viral infections, thyroid disorders, vitamin B12 deficiency, low [...]
Few foods generate as much confusion as dairy. Many people experience bloating, abdominal discomfort or changes in digestion after consuming milk or dairy products and quickly conclude that they must be lactose intolerant. Others assume that a diagnosis of lactose intolerance means dairy must be eliminated completely. In reality, the situation is often more nuanced. [...]
Collagen has become one of the most popular supplements on the market. Yet one detail is often overlooked: not all collagen is the same. Many people assume collagen is simply collagen regardless of the product. However, companies such as GELITA have spent decades developing specific collagen peptide preparations that have been studied for different tissues [...]
Over the past decade, few supplements have generated as much interest in the healthy ageing and longevity space as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR). Both are promoted as ways to increase levels of NAD, a molecule essential for cellular energy production, DNA repair and many of the biochemical processes required for normal cellular [...]
One of the more common assumptions around bone health is that if blood calcium levels are normal, calcium intake and bone health must also be fine. Physiology is more nuanced than that. Serum calcium is not simply a reflection of how much calcium a person is consuming. It is primarily a reflection of how tightly [...]
Many people are told their blood sugar is “normal” and assume there is nothing more to consider. Often, that may be reassuring. But glucose regulation is not always fully captured by one marker alone. HbA1c is a useful marker, but it does not tell us everything about how the body is handling glucose beneath the [...]
One of the questions we are often asked is, “What’s the best vitamin D supplement?” It is a fair question. Vitamin D is available in many forms – liquid drops, capsules, sprays, emulsified preparations and liposomal products – often creating the impression that one form must somehow be markedly superior to another. But for most [...]
When people hear they have Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, the first thing many think is, “I have a thyroid problem.” But Hashimoto’s is not simply a thyroid problem – it is an autoimmune condition that happens to affect the thyroid. That distinction matters, because understanding what Hashimoto’s is – and what influences it – can help guide [...]
Grief touches every part of us. Most people recognise its emotional weight – sadness, numbness, anxiety and exhaustion. But grief can also feel like something much harder to describe – a deep emptiness, a hollow space where something precious once lived, or a profound sense of nothingness that quietly sits beneath everything else. For some, [...]
When people think about bone health, they often think about osteoporosis, fractures or ageing. But by the time a diagnosis is made or a bone breaks unexpectedly, the underlying process has often been unfolding quietly for years - sometimes decades. Bone loss does not happen overnight. It is typically a slow and silent process that [...]
