The importance of Muscle Mass in menopause

By

Last year I drove all the way up to Woodford Queensland to volunteer in the homeopathy tent at the festival.  It was fantastic! But... half-way there, I had to stop for a bush-wee as I got a little caught short (‘scuse my directness, life’s too short to pussyfoot around for these things these days). That wasn’t a problem in itself. The problem I had was that back in the days when I did that kind of thing more often (ahem), I could crouch down and then get back up again no problem. This time, I got stuck. My legs were so weak, I couldn’t push myself back up to … [Read more...] about The importance of Muscle Mass in menopause

Filling in the Gaps: A Homeopath's Tour of a Dental Technician Lab Visiting Mike the dental technician was like creeping into a busy cave with a background of noise and lights. There are the occasional grinding sounds, a compressor working and beautiful coloured beams coming from an array of complex digital equipment. It all cries out for a detailed explanation and Mike, who is at home here in his natural environment, is keen to talk. However, the first thing I see is not the powerful computers but it’s the table full of paint brushes and possibly antiquated … [Read more...] about Filling in the Gaps: A Homeopath’s Tour of a Dental Technician Lab

Kate’s Miso Salmon Recipe

By

I made this Miso Salmon as the centre piece to a Japanese lunch I made for a group of 8 friends.  It was a huge hit for something relatively simple.  I served it just warm with sushi rice seasoned with Fume Furakaki, (a nori & sesame seasoning you can buy at Woolies these days).  We also had little salty edamame beans and pork gyoza (dumplings) to start.  Everyone loved it, super filling but also really light.  Made sure there was plenty of sake as well! Salmon nutritional value Great source of protein and inflammation reducing Omega 3 fatty … [Read more...] about Kate’s Miso Salmon Recipe

By

If you look around in the media, you might notice that articles on menopause have exploded recently.  It’s not like menopause is a new thing, and if you were to really think about how many women are suffering, it’s almost as though menopause could be an illness given the many and varied symptoms it seems to bring about. But is it really menopause causing all of these issues? Or are we blaming something which just happens to be removing a layer of protection that previously allowed us to “get away with” more potentially damaging behaviours in our past … [Read more...] about The joys of menopause and why progesterone is so important
