Nutrition

As osteopaths and allied health professionals, we deeply understand the intricate relationship between diet and overall health, emphasising the importance of a balanced diet that includes all the minerals and vitamins, microbiome support, antioxidants, and adequate protein intake, particularly as we age. Our blog is dedicated to providing you with comprehensive knowledge and insights. We encourage the incorporation of a variety of 30 different plant products each week, as recommended by Tim Spector, to promote a robust gut microbiome. Our belief is the gut is one of the key pillar of health and intricately linked to brain and immune health. 

Additionally, we underscore the crucial role of protein in maintaining muscle mass and strength in older adults. There are specific nutritional needs essential at different life stages, and the importance of particular vitamins and minerals varies throughout the stages. This tailored approach ensures that each age group receives the nutrients required to maintain optimal health, prevent injury, and enhance vitality. Through detailed posts, we aim to enhance your understanding of how targeted nutrition can impact your health and well-being, offering practical tips for dietary adjustments that cater to the evolving nutritional needs throughout the lifespan.
