Health Facts That You May Not Know…

  • With food intolerances (also known as a food sensitivities) once you have identified what you are reacting to and eliminated it, basically giving your digestive system a ‘break’ to improve your digestive health, then it is likely that you can then go back to eating those foods in moderation.
  • Three months is the magic number to change the quality of your eggs, because it takes approximately that long for the follicles on your ovaries to develop before one is mature enough to release an egg at ovulation.
  • Women are at risk of osteoporosis from the menopause onwards, when hormone levels reduce.
  • BMI is not the best measurement for knowing if you are overweight. Muscle is heavier than fat, so a well-muscled, extremely fit person might register a BMI as high as an unfit rather overweight person.
  • Sage is a botanical herb that has been used for centuries.  Women often use sage as they go through the menopause and it has also been used to improve mental energy and alertness and reduce stress.
  • Protein is a vital nutrient needed for your body to perform many functions, including the production of antibodies to resist infection and the formation of new tissue. Too much or too little protein may reduce the strength of your bones and increase the risk of fracture.
  • You could have sex on a Monday and get pregnant on the Friday when the egg has been released.  This is because the egg once released at ovulation only survives for about 24 hours but the sperm can live for up to seven days when the cervical mucus is alkaline.
  • It is estimated that 45% of the UK population has a food intolerance. These intolerances can affect many parts of your body including:
  • Skin – Eczema, urticaria, itching, rashes
  • Gastrointestinal – Severe bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, flatulence, IBS
  • Recurrent Infections – Chronic infections, frequent ear infections
  • Mental / Emotional – Anxiety, depression, hyperactivity, insomnia, irritability
  • Musculoskeletal – Joint and muscle pain, arthritis
  • Respiratory – Asthma, rhinitis
  • Others – Palpitations, water retention, headaches, fatigue, migraines, weight gain
  • Your bones are at their strongest around the age of 30 and then they start to become weaker around the menopause which can lead to osteoporosis.
  • Muscle takes up 5 times less space than fat so as you lose fat, you lose inches, your clothes feel looser and your body shape changes but your weight could stay the same.
  • It is reported that every three seconds a bone will break somewhere in the world, because of osteoporosis. The good news is that fractures can often be prevented through healthy lifestyle choices.
  • The word allergy is derived from Greek with ‘allos’ meaning different and ‘ergos’ meaning action, so when something foreign enters your body it has to take action by responding to that alien substance.
