 Welcome
|
 Welcome to our winter newsletter. Winter has finally arrived in Perth and the early mornings at the beach have become very brisk at last.
Jan recently attended a seminar on the Metabolic Syndrome and it may be that you have this syndrome or are at risk. Important reading here so don't miss this article if your waistline is 94cm or over (men) or 80cm or over (women) - which puts you in the risk category.
We have a winter Immune Check Consultation special for all existing clients to help you all keep your immunity up to speed and ward off any flu that might be doing the rounds. And, all new clients in May and June receive a free Botani Olive Hand Cream as a special treat - tell all your friends.
As always we have new articles to read with the latest Natural Solutions columns and Wellness Review articles.
Happy reading and keep well.
Jan & the "office staff"

Metabolic Syndrome |
 Now that Australia has been labelled "The Fattest Nation on Earth" (and how depressing is that!) we need to seriously look at Metabolic Syndrome and what that means for us. This syndrome is where pre-diabetes / diabetes (or the beginnings of poor blood glucose management) and cardiovascular disease can affect you at the same time. It can be a slippery slope to really poor health if it is not addressed and corrected. Metabolic syndrome can affect kids too, not just adults, and this is where it gets even more worrying. You may have this syndrome or be at high risk if you have:
- High blood pressure
- Pre-diabetes (insulin resistance) or diabetes
- High triglycerides
- Low HDL (good) cholesterol
- Extra weight on the waistline - 94cm or over in men, 80cm or over in women
- Family history of diabetes, heart attack or stroke
Some other signs that show you may be at risk or have the syndrome are:
- Skin tags (little tags of skin around your trunk)
- Snoring or sleep apnoea
- Depression
- Migraines
- Memory problems
- Headaches
- Low libido
- Prostate problems
- Impotence
- Polycystic ovary syndrome
- Roughness and darkening of the skin
Jan has all the tools to help you create a better outcome if you have this syndrome or if you think you are on the way. Contact Jan to make a booking for a consultation to have your health checked carefully by a nutrition expert.
