H.E.A.L Thy Self!

Many health conditions are poorly dealt with by the medical profession. Most of my clients come to me after going through the medical system for many years with very little success and being told they just have to live with conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, IBS and food intolerance because there is no cure. Our trust in the system often leads to approach seemingly simple dietary solutions with a little suspicion or mistrust. When in reality most health conditions can be very much cured or alleviated through a change in your diet – which was probably the root cause in the first place.

My aim is to empower you to find a dietary solution to your health issues through either personal consultation or through my range of e-courses.

A Tonic H.E.A.L Academy e-course will allow you to self asses your condition and self heal through a series of professionally designed treatment plans delivered straight to your inbox. You will have access to me at all times and most courses do come with a personal consultation too. You will also have access to my amazing Client’s Only area where you will be supported by other students who are currently going through treatment or have completed various courses. I achieve outstanding results with my treatment methods so why not take a look? Visit www.tonichealacademy.com for a full breakdown of all courses. Plus, you can join my free community hub – Tonic Nutrition Revolutionaries – where a lot of my clients hang out. Go over and ask them for yourself! https://www.facebook.com/groups/tonicrevolutionaries/

Health and Diet – Make the Connection

Hello lovelies! Ask yourself this – what’s stopping you from achieving your health goals? I’m not talking about having great skin or losing some weight. I’m talking about getting well. Healing a health condition.

For many people using food as medication instead of pills can be an alien concept. We’re so used to visiting the GP to be sent away with a truck load of topical creams, antibiotics, stronger pain medication or just being told we need to live with it. NO!

I can’t stress enough how your health is directly linked to what you put in your mouth. You can heal or greatly alleviate many conditions just by changing your diet. It’s that simple.

If you find yourself going back and forth to your GP and not achieving the health results you’re looking for, why not try a different avenue?

I have many clients with a range of different health conditions enjoying the best health of their lives simply by looking at healing through diet. I can guide you and let you know which foods may be causing or making certain health conditions worse. I can design a personalised plan just for you with ongoing support and coaching to get you through to wellness.

Your body is awesome. It WANTS to be well. Many people see huge progress within just a few weeks. A dietary approach is the safest and simplest avenue to try – no toxic drugs, no crazy supplements…food. That’s it.

If you have any health condition then I can probably help but here are a few examples of what I successfully deal with on a regular basis – IBS, food intolerance, kids health, arthritis pain, autoimmune, eczema, psoriasis, acne, anxiety, depression, type 2 diabetes, sugar cravings and hormone imbalance.

My method is to create a healing environment in your body. Doing this will allow your body to do all the work – it will make itself well all by itself given the right opportunity – and quickly too.

The Digestive Enzyme Solution

Food intolerance and IBS are usually super easy to rectify using a food elimination process. Within 2 weeks you’re usually symptom free and ready to start food testing and reintroduction. But, sometimes digestive discomfort can be caused by more than just a reaction to foods – it can be caused when your body doesn’t produce enough digestive enzymes to break down your food. Symptoms of this include bloating, floating stool, nausea, indigestion, aches and pains, stomach pains, blood sugar imbalance, belching, feeling full before you’ve finished a meal and constipation.

Enzymes are essential for every cell in your body – in fact all of your physiological processes. They are composed of amino acids and there are around 3000 different ones. But, those are just the enzymes that have been discovered. Some scientists believe that there may be more than 50000 more yet to be identified.

Enzymes are responsible for reducing inflammation, energy production, nutrient absorption, detoxification, breaking down fats and balancing hormones. A deficiency in these enzymes can cause all sorts of discomfort.

According to Dr. Edward Howell you are born with limited enzyme producing capabilities and if you don’t get enough enzymes from the food you eat then a lot of strain is put on your digestive system to produce enough to break down your food. Most digestive and metabolic enzymes are produced by your pancreas.

A typical western diet is made up of processed and cooked foods. This, along with the overuse of medicines and drugs like antibiotics, can lead to a massive imbalance in your ability to breakdown and absorb nutrients from your food, leading to chronic health conditions and deficiencies. Not only this, but your immune system starts in your gut, so any deficiency in the gut can greatly impair your immune defences.

The best way to get enzyme rich foods is to eat them raw. So adding a high raw element to your diet is always advisable. The use of mouth washes and chewing gum can affect the enzyme in saliva, further causing digestive upset.

Some foods contain specific digestive enzymes, these include sprouted seeds and legumes, papaya, pineapple, avocado, coconut and extra virgin olive oil, mango, kiwi and grapes.

A lot of raw fruit and veg is termed as “pre-digested” food, so its very gentle on your digestive system. In fact, most people spend 80% of their energy simply digesting food! The digestive system wasn’t designed to be so over worked which could be why a large portion of the population suffer with low energy levels and fatigue.

The use of supplemented digestive enzymes could be beneficial for those suffering with digestive discomfort and mist be taken with a meal. They are safe but I would always recommend speaking with a qualified professional to asses your symptoms first before taking anything you don’t really need to be taking.

Cashew Cream Cheese

You know what i love? Cream cheese. You know what i don’t love? Dairy, animal cruelty, factory farming, additions like pain medications, antibiotics, anti-fungals and hormones. I also don’t like disease and inflammation.

But, that’s just me. I deal with a lot of clients who can’t tolerate dairy because of food intolerance or IBS. So, whatever your reasons, there’s always an alternative.

I make my cheese out of cashews. Why wouldn’t you opt for plantbased goodness?

This is herb and chilli cream cheese. Took about 10 minutes to make using soaked cashews. Easy and healthy.

300g cashews soaked for 2 hours in water
1 tbsp dried mixed herbs
Pinch of rock salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 finger chilli (or to taste)
3 tbsp hemp oil

Put everything in a food processor and blend. Blend blend blend. Scrape down the sides and get blending some more until its super smooth and creamy. That’s it!

More Success With IBS and Food Intolerance

IBS – Irritable Bowel Syndrome can be a chronic and debilitating illness which, according to doctors, has no cure and you basically just have to live with it. But what if you haven’t been “diagnosed” with IBS but are still suffering from similar symptoms?

Its still frustrating, painful, embarrassing at times and I’m sure pretty miserable!

I’m proud to say I have a 100% success rate with treating both IBS and general food intolerance. There is no need to suffer and literally, within 14 days, symptoms can be gone.

I’m not saying I have a cure – I haven’t. There isn’t one. But it is possible to live completely without symptoms and be in full control. Each case is always different which is why there isn’t a blanket approach for this. I have just received a lovely testimonial from a client who has been suffering for years with food intolerance.

Toxins built up from these illnesses not only affect you physically, but also mentally and emotionally too. It’s often quite a profound experience when you finally detoxify and get rid of those symptoms.

“After suffering for years with bloating, constipation and tummy pain I stumbled across Tonic on Facebook. I read through lots of her recipes and posts and decided to give it a go…..I had a chat with her on Skype and instantly warmed to her, somehow already knowing this was my path in life and was going to help me! Well a few months later and WOW! I am a changed person, all symptoms have gone (initially within 14 days!) and even my skin and hormones are feeling and looking fabulous! This is a change for life and one I’m very happy to keep going with! Lynsey is there for you every step of the way, its like gaining a fairy Godmother! Years of trying different medication from doctors who don’t care and don’t listen are a thing of the past. Natural plant based is the easy obvious choice for me and my family now. I can’t thank Lynsey enough xx”

I deal with new food intolerance clients every week. Some who have been through the medical system and even had invasive surgery to find out the problem! No matter how chronic you think your symptoms are, you’ll be surprised at how easy it is to sort out.

A Little Selection of Awesomeness…Just for you xoxo

If you’re new to Tonic Nutrition and associated awesome groups you’ll soon see that we’re smoothie cray-cray here! There is no better addition to your diet to immediately give you a massive and useful boost of fibre (essential for keeping blood sugar and cravings in check), vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
Your health will improve, energy levels increase and your skin will glow.

Want to make positive changes?
Step 1. Smoothie time. Here are a few of my favourites. Give them a try!

From top left, clockwise:

✔ Tropical banana, mango and papaya. Blend 1 papaya, 2 ripe bananas and 1 mango with water and a little almond milk (or any dairy free milk). The amount of liquid you use will depend on how thick or thin you prefer your smoothies.
✔ Chocolate Madness.
2 large ripe bananas, 3 teaspoons organic dark chocolate powder (I use Green & Blacks), or you can use raw cacao too. Blend with soy milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and water.
✔ Pop Art Berries. 1 avocado, 1 cup frozen cherries, 1 teaspoon camu camu, 1 cup strawberries. Blend with water.
✔ Pitaya Perfection. Pitaya is another name for dragon fruit. This smoothie is 1 dragon fruit, 1 cup of frozen raspberries and one banana. Blend with 2 tbsp soy yogurt and a little water.

A smoothie a day….keeps you awesome. Enjoy!

Success Already in 2015!

Awesome start to 2015. Honestly my clients totally ROCK IT.

Regaining health and starting the healing process can happen by making such simple changes that people are often really sceptical. Yep. I get a lot of strange looks.

We’ve been conditioned to think that extreme is the norm when it comes to health and lifestyle. Juicing, fasting, restrictions, starving, cabbage soup, pills, shakes and sachets….waaa! Screw that.

If you have a chronic illness then you will need a specific health plan tailored to your illness, but if you’re just feeling a bit “meh” then a few simple changes and some inspiration can work wonders!

And when results jump up and kick you up the wazoo it’s a real lightbulb moment! “Can it really be this simple…? (and delicious and awesome and easy and fun…and delicious”. YES!

“I have a breakthrough discovery to share! Yesterday and today I made pancakes with gluten-free flour. And for the first time in my life I didn’t feel bloated after eating pancakes and even felt uplifted! I am absolutely gobsmacked. The taste is not that different and pancakes are so easy to make (I mixed flour+soy milk in a smootie maker). I’m so grateful to Lynsey for her consultation, inspiring and liberating diet tips and recipes, thanks Lynsey xx I’ve cut down on meat, replaced cow’s milk products with plant-based ones, and refined sugar with agave nectar, have never felt better!”
