I’ve tried to ignore this for weeks, but keep getting asked whether its ok to put collagen into coffee – due to some articles with rather hilariously blatant articles telling you that it will break down, or won’t work.…
I am asked endlessly for immune boosting help – for change of season allergies and infections – to general immune boosting. So here’s the article I promised I’d write.
BEST VITAMINS & MINERAL SUPPLEMENTS:
There are loads of course, but here are 5 important ones in order:

Rosacea is a really nasty skin disorder affecting the curves and features of the centre of the face most often, and also called acne rosacea. It’s generally characterised by one or more of the following:
• Light to heavy facial flushing (erythema) which can be transient or permanent
• Papules and pustules
• Telangiectasia – threadlike red lines or patterns that cross the face
• Rhinophyma – where the nose thickens and becomes bulbous
Women of 30-50 are most often victims of this condition, and find it frustrating and embarrassing to deal with for obvious reasons.…
You may not know this, but you can develop gallstones while you are trying to lose weight. If you don’t keep your gallbladder functioning normally allowing it to expel bile and emulsify fats, you could develop gallstones in your weight loss journey.…
Let’s face it – you can’t beat glass. Even “food grade” plastic can leach chemicals and odours into your honey and there is a lot of research that shows it probably does. To me, a glass jar is a sign of QUALITY.…
I have written about this many times, so here’s one more time. You won’t escape this oil if you live in the western world – it’s cheap, freely available and found in every restaurant (and sadly a lot of homes) – but is it healthy?…
- Phthalates: they are in dish soaps, air fresheners and all scented items. These disrupt the endocrine system reducing sperm count, and contributing to skin irritation, amongst others. To avoid these health problems, choose fragrance-free products, or use pure essential oils in a ceramic diffuser versus traditional air fresheners
- Perchloroethylene (PERC): often found in aerosol paint concentrates, oven cleaners, laundry aids, dry cleaning solutions, and many others.
Let me start by saying that I am NOT in favour of fad diets, crash diets or anything that is unhealthy or extreme in any way, especially in the long term. However, there are those times in our lives when we absolutely have to lose a few kilos (and I stress a FEW, not 20!) to get into that important dress (like a wedding dress – hence the name of the diet) school reunion, photoshoot or special outfit for a function.…
Anyone with a suspected thyroid issue should know how to test their thyroid properly. Most doctors only check TSH levels and assume your thyroid is fine as long as the TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) is below about 5 (way too high) these days.…
There are some very nasty chemicals out there – yes, they’re all bad – but some are worse than others. The liver is the most important detoxifying organ in the body. When the liver can’t effectively neutralize and dispose of toxins, they accumulate in the body.…
Yes, I believe it can. Vitamin D is a true superstar which affects so much more than bones and teeth, such as the brain, immune system, hormones, cancer prevention and gene expression which all rely to some extent on Vitamin D.…
The gallbladder as I have said often, is not a dispensable organ. This little sac is there to collect bile – it’s there for a reason, and should be cared for. But sometimes things go wrong, however, IF you CAN save your gallbladder please please do so.…
I got SUCH a fabulous message from SD I HAVE to share it – so wonderful.
“Hi Sally-Ann. I just wanted to give some feedback regarding your Pure Hydrolysed Collagen.
I have suffered for over 5 years with lower back pain.…
You probably know that there is a commonly held belief that there are ‘bits’ in our bodies we don’t need like our tonsils and adenoids, spleen, appendix, gallbladder, womb and ovaries after menopause.…
Researchers estimate that at least 50% of the US population is deficient in magnesium. The intake of the mineral has actually decreased in the Western world in recent years.
Magnesium deficiency is difficult to diagnose via testing because it exists in the cells and the bones – don’t waste your time testing for serum concentration because only 0.3% of body magnesium is found in serum (blood).…
There is so much confusion today about fat, but what we do know is fat is not the enemy. Here are some GOOD fats you can use for different cooking methods:
SAUTEING AND COOKING
Use heat-stable, saturated fats – animal fats which do not oxidise or get damaged by heat. …
I am still amazed every day by what my utterly amazing brand of Pure Hydrolysed Collagen I am bringing in is doing for me, and for thousands of people around the country. It’s become so effective that many doctors are referring patients to this brand (which is the fastest growing brand of collagen in the country) but there ARE side effects!…

Decluttering/KonMatri à la Sally-Ann
Well, it’s finally bitten me – the KonMari/decluttering bug the Japanese use. Better to have a few things you love than a household of things you barely use. It’s so addictive once you start, it’s hard to stop!…
This plan is designed to not only help you lose weight but to look good, to improve your facial contours (no more puffiness!), get rid of excess water weight, NOT lose muscle but lose body fat stores instead, and greatly improve the state of your health – all at the same time.…
The best way to get the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients you need is to start with good, wholesome, whole, real food – the very best quality you can afford. Of course growing your own is first prize (organically) but if you can’t do the best you can.…
We usually think of potassium in terms of something we need to offset high blood pressure – which is true in one sense – but there is so much more to this interesting but very important mineral, and this is just one small benefit.…
You’re probably wondering why I have two different kinds of oral magnesium now – the powdered Magnesium Citrate and the Magnesium Chelate Premium capsules. Apart from the fact that some people like powders and others like capsules, there are some subtle differences.…
Have you been diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis and ‘sentenced’ to a life of calcium supplements and bisphosphonate drugs, both of which do nothing to help the situation, but come with dire side effects which damage health?…
Mmm, not funny when you have hair loss or thinning hair. There are a lot of complex mechanisms at work here, but some you can deal with to stop the process worsening, and in fact give you back that lovely full head of hair.…

Candida albicans is a yeast/fungus that is found in all of our digestive systems. When kept in balance with our good bacteria, Candida doesn’t cause any problems. But Candida is “opportunistic” – which means, given the opportunity, it can and will grow out of control.…
There’s nothing more rewarding than making your own compost especially when you eat organic food and choose really healthy ingredients. Throwing away anything from good food – even peels – seems like sacrilege.…
I am a pesto lover of note – I can’t think of a thing that doesn’t go well with some or other pesto, and I’ve made pesto out of anything – literally anything – that can be pesto’d!…
According to Harvard research, this deficiency is one of the top 10 causes of death in USA. It decreases risk of heart disease and stroke, depression, hypertension, ADHD, joint pain, arthritis, eczema, infertility, miscarriage, raised triglyceride levels (a heart disease marker) and dozens of other serious conditions.…
