This webinar is a small group interactive session in which we explore the affect of Amoxicillin (an antiobiotic) on my own gut microbiome. Using an Invivo GI EcologiX stool test, 2 weeks after finishing a course of this drug I am keen to get an understanding of how the drug may have effected the diversity and relative abundance of the commensal bacteria residing in my gut. We will discuss the potential impact of the drug and interventions designed to resolve any imbalances. At the point of writing, I am waiting for the test results to be returned and I will be fascinated to share the results and my thoughts on how, in general we can keep our gut microbiome in a happy place post antibiotics.

Join me on Thursday 8th August to talk all things DETOX.

How will your mind & body feel totally rejuvenated by a high level of nutrients, detoxification support & relaxation? Join me to discuss. We will cover how the body naturally detoxifies, how the body becomes overloaded by toxins, nutritional elements of a cleanse, plus how to support a detoxification programme with yoga, breath work, sauna and more. I will also be talking through this incredible juice retreat pictured. It is located in Gozo, an island off Malta. I take a group there every year.

In this Zoom workshop we will be discussing the obstacles which we, as humans, create in the often sensitive area of ‘eating habits’.

The body has an incredible interplay of appetite hormones, neuropeptides and stretch receptors which theoretically should tell us when to start and to stop eating. However, our emotions can easily over-ride these physical messaging systems leading to over-eating, consuming highly palatable (rich in fats and sugar) foods in search of a dopamine hit or constant snacking. Such consistent habits can then lead to a resistance to change.

For the first hour of our webinar, we will be talking through commonly asked questions such as:

Why do I crave certain food?

Is food addictive?

Can I learn to curb a craving?

How can I learn to love eating a healthy diet?

At this online event, we will be discussing the different types of fasts, how to conduct a fast safely, when not to fast (it’s not safe for everyone) and if you are tempted to combine health with a holiday I’ll be talking through the health retreat @amcharahealth ( locations both in the U.K. and Gozo - Malta ) in which it is very easy to fast as all temptations and stressors of modern life are removed.

I am very keen to give practical fasting tools, so we will talk through how to go about a low calorie but still delicious and nutritious fast for 7 days. I will be creating a FASTING FACEBOOK group for participants. To ease the process, we have the option of using Medium Chain Triglycerides for extra energy.

Why come along? Learn about fasting and join the ‘health is wealth’ conversation.

Which plant compounds may be attributed to long term health? Are there culinary tips we could learn from this region or is health all about connection? This and more will be discussed.
