Are you at the mercy of your hay fever? 🤧⁠ ⁠ If itchy eyes, a runny nose and sneezing have taken over your life, changing your daily habits can help you manage your symptoms and reduce your exposure to the environmental allergens that trigger them. ⁠ ⁠ New habits can be hard to develop, so start with one that will be easy for you to implement, and work your way up from there.⁠ ⁠ The following daily habits will help you put your symptoms back in their place:⁠ ⁠ 🏡 Keep your windows closed at times when the pollen count is highest (usually in the early morning and evening) to prevent pollen entering your home and triggering your symptoms. Check tomorrow’s pollen forecast so you can be prepared to manage a high pollen day.⁠ ⁠ ❌🍷 Reduce your intake of histamine-triggering foods and drinks, such as coffee and alcohol (especially beer, cider, and wine, which contain high histamine levels). Histamine is the chemical your immune system produces when exposed to allergens, responsible for the swelling and itching in your nasal passages and eyes. However, it is also found in some foods and drinks, and avoiding these may help reduce your symptoms. ⁠ ⁠ 🌾Vacuum your house frequently to remove pollens and other allergens from your home.⁠ ⁠ 🚿 Minimise pollen being spread throughout your house, by showering, washing your hair and changing your clothes as soon as you get home. ⁠ ⁠ 🖐️ Wash your bed sheets frequently and at a high temperature to remove pollen that may have made its way into bed on your clothes, hair, or through your window. Dry your sheets indoors to prevent pollen sticking to them as they dry.⁠ ⁠ 😎 Wear wrap-around sunglasses and a hat with a brim to keep pollen out of your eyes to limit itchy, streaming, swollen eyes.⁠ ⁠ 🤓 See your natural healthcare Practitioner for nutritional and herbal supplementation that has been formulated to help provide allergy symptom support and a probiotic that helps reduce the occurrence of allergy symptoms such as hay fever by improving the balance of bacteria in your gut. ⁠ ⁠ If you find this helpful, or know someone who needs to know this information tag them below, or DM us with any questions you might have 💛⁠

We constantly get asked the question “Do you do desensitisation?”⁠ ⁠ First of all, what is “Desensitisation” ? There are many meanings but simply put it means “to become less sensitive”. ⁠ ⁠ The good news is, YES we can help you.⁠ ⁠ First of all, let us be clear that here we are not talking about delayed reactions to foods – we could call these “Sensitivities” these require a different approach to the Desensitisation being discussed in this post. In this post we are addressing allergens that activate the immediate side of the immune system resulting in symptoms such as hives, eczema, itching eyes. dripping nose and sneezing.⁠ ⁠ For Desensitisation, our Pathology partners help us to measure the scale of sensitivity by providing a test technically called “sIgE testing on the ImmunoCAP platform”. This is widely considered the benchmark method used in the majority of current allergy clinical trials. (Williams PB et al, Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2000 Jun; 105:1221-30).⁠ ⁠ At Perth Allergy Clinic we can use this test for a whole range of individual allergens by putting specific panels together. Our practitioners will go through the options with you during your initial consultation. ⁠ ⁠ Results will identify each individual allergen whether positive or negative together with a description of the reactivity eg "low, moderate, high, very high".⁠ ⁠ We have experienced Practitioners including Clinical Nutritionists, Naturopaths and Nurses available to assist you. Allergies are what we deal with all day every day.⁠ ⁠ For the relief of symptoms, we use scientifically proven and clinically trialled natural medicines.⁠ ⁠ With our approach to Desensitisation we don’t band aid. We aim to get to the root cause of the problem by healing the gut and the gut wall, reducing hyper-permeability (leakage) and reducing the immune systems production of histamine.⁠ ⁠ We also provide ongoing specific dietary information from our Clinical Nutritionists. Their consulting work may be claimed through your private health fund.⁠ ⁠ Want further opinions? Take a minute to read our reviews on Google. Or call our patient information line on 0414 400 562⁠

Anxiety is normal. ⁠ ⁠ At some point in our lives most of us will experience a feeling of worry, concern or even panic and fear. These emotions can be mild and easy to manage, and in some cases quite debilitating.⁠ ⁠ We’ve talked about the gut-brain axis before and certainly in clinic we see that many patients experience an increase in their digestive symptoms as worry, fear and anxiety escalate. ⁠ ⁠ Some preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated the positive impact of probiotic supplementation on anxiety and depressive symptoms. Although this research is in it’s infancy, it gives us good reason to consider the health of our gut and the organisms within it as we look to improve our mood. ⁠ ⁠ Some of the actions of probiotics on mood may be:⁠ - Increased levels of serotonin; the happy hormone⁠ - Reduced levels of systemic inflammation ⁠ - Certain strains such as L. Rhamnosus helping to reduce cortisol; the flight or fight hormone⁠ - Some strains such as B.Infantis may possess natural antidepressant properties too.⁠ ⁠ Talk to your practitioner today about the relationship between your mood and digestion. ⁠ ⁠ If you find this helpful, or know someone who needs to know this information tag them below, or DM us with any questions you might have 💛⁠

When we think of gluten sensitivity, we typically imagine symptoms of the digestive tract; bloating, diarrhoea, gas and smelly stools. 💩⁠ ⁠ While these might be the obvious signs something’s going on inside, gluten sensitivity can also be wreaking havoc on your skin, joints, hormones, mood, immune system and more.⁠ ⁠ What is Zonulin? It’s is a molecule which regulates the openings between cells in the gut lining, known as tight junctions. High levels of zonulin have been associated with increased intestinal permeability, as zonulin induces the breakdown of these tight junctions leading to leaky gut.⁠ ⁠ Leaky gut, or “intestinal permeability,” is a condition in which the lining of the small intestine becomes damaged, causing undigested food particles, toxic waste products and bacteria to “leak” through the intestines and flood the blood stream. The foreign substances entering the blood are transported throughout the body, including to the brain.⁠ ⁠ But what does this all have to do with gluten? ⁠ It turns out that gluten is a strong trigger of zonulin in some individuals. "No human being completely digests gluten," says Fasano. "And in a small percentage of us, that undigested gluten triggers the release of zonulin," ⁠ Researchers interested in learning if a gluten free diet could lessen the severity of the anxiety symptoms in CD patients, conducted a one year study to learn more. The researchers followed 35 patients with coeliac disease who were placed on a gluten-free diet for one year. At baseline, 72% of participants had significant levels of anxiety; this dropped to 25% at the end of the trial. A gluten-free diet in patients with gluten problems does seem to reduce levels of anxiety.⁠ ⁠ -Addolorato G et al. Anxiety but not depression decreases in coeliac patients after one-year gluten-free diet: a longitudinal study. Scand J Gastroenterol. 2001;36:502-506.⁠ ⁠ It’s important to note that not all cases of neurological symptoms are caused by gluten. However, issues like depression and anxiety CAN be part of the picture of gluten sensitivity.⁠ ⁠ Talk to your Qualified Natural Health Practitioner to find out about gut health testing to find out more. 💛

Your brain is truly remarkable in what it can achieve every second of every day. ⁠ ⁠ Did you know that one litre of blood passes through your brain every single minute that your heart is beating? 💓⁠ ⁠ We know that when we eat food, we take in an amazing array of chemical messengers. From the protein, fats, carbs, vitamins and minerals present in that food item, to the phytochemicals this food contains and even the additional chemicals, pesticides and preservatives this food has been exposed to during it's life and processing. 🥦⁠ ⁠ Following good digestion, these chemical messengers are absorbed into the bloodstream, and make their way to the brain where they are involved in a host of applications including the production of neurotransmitters, tissue repair, cellular metabolism for energy production and more. ⁠ ⁠ So ask yourself, what have you eaten in the last day or so? Because that is what you are feeding your brain. 🧠

The Gut-Brain axis is term for the two-way communication between what happens in digestion and how this influences our brains, and vice versa. You’re probably familiar with the feeling of butterflies in the stomach, well this is the gut-brain axis in action. This communication is both direct, through the nervous system and biochemical, through the release and response to various chemicals and neurotransmitters.⁠ ⁠ The Vagus nerve is one of the direct connections between the gut and brain. How well the Vagus nerve is functioning and thus, how well the gut and the brain are communicating, can have an effect on everything from anxiety levels and negative feelings to brain fog and IBS to addictions, weight gain and much more.⁠ ⁠ This pathway is a player in our parasympathetic or ‘unconscious’ nervous system, the one which also regulates heart rate and digestion. Without conscious control over this, those butterflies are hard to stop once they start to flutter. ⁠ ⁠ Here’s a few things we CAN do to calm the fluttering:⁠ ⁠ 🎶Humming. The vibrations send calming messages from the throat via the vagal nerve to the brain.⁠ ⁠ 🧘Diaphragmic breathing. Place a hand on your chest and one on your belly. Breathe in through your nose deep into your belly, and feel the hand on your belly fall as you slowly breathe out. Notice that the hand on your chest remains still.⁠ ⁠ 🚿Cold showers or ice immersion. Popularised most recently by Wil Hof, research into the benefits of cold exposure demonstrate that vagal tone is one of the reasons why this well-loved technique helps to reduce anxiety and stress.⁠ ⁠ 🌱Herbal Medicine. Your practitioner may select specific herbs to assist with calming the nervous system activity while nourishing your digestion.⁠ ⁠ 🥣Dietary fibre: Fibre increases GLP-1, a hormone that supports communication between the Vagus Nerve and brain, slows stomach emptying and makes the body feel full longer.⁠ ⁠ 🏃‍♀️Exercise regularly. Exercise stimulates the Vagus Nerve to stimulate gut flow thereby benefiting the vagal index along with excretion.⁠ ⁠ Think of your Vagal health as the key to ‘Rest, Digest and De-stress’ .

Hi! I’m Julia, Naturopath, Wellness Coach and Allergy Advisor at Perth Allergy Clinic. ⁠ ⁠ My own journey into wellness started as a Uni student in the UK. While researching for my Health Science degree and major in Psychology, I found myself naturally drawn to the research and many benefits of nutrition, herbs, meditation and other holistic practices. ⁠ ⁠ It was later when I brought my backpack to Australia that I discovered the world of Naturopathy and Nutritional Medicine in all its true glory. Australia is well known for its advanced place in the field of Natural Health, so I was delighted to find like-minded people to study Naturopathy and Nutrition with in Melbourne. I graduated in 2000 and have been a lifelong learner in the field ever since.⁠ ⁠ Working with me..⁠ I understand work stress. For years I was very committed and absolutely loved my job working for a large Wellness company. It was a senior role covering a large region of Australia, which meant a frequent travel schedule and very early mornings. So, I get how it feels to have a demanding job and to juggle a busy home life too! Most importantly, I’ve seen how these pressures can make health slip down the priority list- leaving its mark on our happiness and performance as well as our bodies.⁠ ⁠ Throughout my career, I’ve also had the great fortune to work alongside some of the world’s best Functional Medicine Practitioners, Researchers and Educators in our field, and for that I feel thoroughly grateful.
