Not all collagen is created equally 🤎
The best results come down to quality, sourcing and absorption.
@mywayupofficial Collagen Restore is single-origin, with the world’s highest animal welfare standards and is
made using the most advanced collagen technology for incredible absorption.
It also contains zinc, vitamin C and Bimuno GOS prebiotic to help restore gut health and benefit your digestion in only 7 days.
If you’re going to invest in supplements, quality matters like… A LOT.
And I of course know that not everyone drinks coffee!! You can add a scoop of Collagen Restore to your tea, smoothie or other drink of choice to restore your gut-skin axis with the cleanest, most bioavailable collagen formula there is!!

And because you know I love being authentic, here’s a tip: DON’T make it in the order i did, DEFINITELY mix the collagen into the hot espresso and NOT the ice cold milk LOL, much harder to mix😭

Did I want to make a fun little video this morning about the new supplement I’m loving: yes
Did I plan out the process or best order to do it in: no

10% off the Collagen Restore using the link in my bio! 🫶🏼

As I was making this I realised how much we are getting ripped off at the supermarket… 🍎

Most people have the notion that organic or healthy = more expensive. This post definitely contends that!! Yes with some products the higher quality you get, the more expensive for example EVOO and pasture raised, ethical eggs 🥚💰🫒 Some things are definitely worth paying a little bit more for, you’re investing in your health.

However I found with some items that the more simple the ingredient list, the cheaper (or same/very similar price point) like the peanut butter, the tuna, the seasoning, the dairy free milk and the honey.

Eating cleaner definitely doesn’t always have to mean breaking the bank! 💳

One item I think you should DEFINITELY consider spending a bit more on are ethical, pasture raised eggs. They come from hens that live outdoors on fresh pasture with significantly more space, leading to higher nutritional quality and better animal welfare. Living situations like these ensure the hens can freely roam, forage for bugs and worms, dust bathe and socialise in the sunlight. Happy, pasture raised hens with access to diverse diets lay eggs that are significantly higher in Vitamin D, Vitamin A and Omega-3 fatty acids. There are many great egg brands that come from beautiful farms, always read the fine print! 🐓✅

In Australia, 'free range’ eggs only have to meet one legal standard: 10,000 hens per hectare. At that density, hens strip the ground bare within weeks, turning pasture into mud and dirt and crowding fuels stress, pecking and bullying. There’s no minimum time hens must actually spend outside, so many stay mostly indoors despite the label ❌❌❌

Let me know what supermarket you’d like me to do next!

WEEKEND IN THE LIFE!!

I value my health JUST as much as I value dancing and cinammon scrolls! I am ALL about balance here. To me holistic wellness incorporates your mental and social health just as much as it does your physical health. Without nights of endless dancing, I’d be missing out on a big factor of my wellness. You will never find true happiness in restricting yourself from things you enjoy.
Physically speaking, I achieved 20,000 steps on my walk and even more on Saturday night!!

Was an extremely beautiful and fun weekend 🪩🫐✨ 🍓
My guarantees in life are death, taxes and beaches farmers markets every Friday! 🍊🧡

The other day I was asked what my favourite herb was and it prompted me to think, there are so many amazing ones that it was hard to choose! ❤️

Here’s a quick look at some of my favorite herbs as a clinical nutrition and naturopathy student!! 🌿🪻💐

I love the deep history behind so many of these plants that have been supporting health across generations and traditional systems and there is still sooo much we can learn from ancient cultures! Plus so many of them taste beautiful brewed as warm, comforting teas with no pill supplements needed 🍵

That said, a MASSIVE shoutout to @bioceuticals ArmaForce! It has been a huge reason why I haven’t been sick for three WHOLE years, not even a single sniffle. Yes I’ve adopted healthier habits since studying but it’s a huge factor, armaforce is my pride and joy lol. Andrographis is a major key player in it. Just a quick safety note though, Andrographis is NOT recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding due to potential risks of uterine stimulation or contraceptive effects and a lack of safety data

HM: Hibiscus! 🌺 It brews into the most stunning ruby red tea and it’s packed with vitamin C and antioxidants that help support heart health and blood pressure. Also, the signature tart flavor tastes just like cranberry, making it super refreshing hot or iced ✨

I really hope this reaches the right people… 👋🏼

In the current landscape of the wellness industry where perfection seems to be the ultimate goal, i wanted to keep it real 🎀

Sometimes I feel like not having the perfect skin, the perfect body, the perfect non toxic regime and not staying in on the weekends to read and be asleep by 8pm has the power to diminish my credentials. My journey in the industry is all about morphing into my best self.

First off the list: acne. Mine has long been something that I’ve done a pretty good job of hiding (or so I like to think). A couple of months ago, maybe even a week ago, you could not PAY ME to post a photo of my flare ups… then it dawned on me… it’s been so long that I no longer care!! I no longer feel the urge to hide behind the facade of perfection because I’m not a fraud, I’m human. I’ve seen an increasing amount of posts in this space bringing struggles with acne to light and I’m so happy I can finally join in 🫶🏼

My perspectives on life and balance have majorly shifted since beginning my studies in clinical nutrition & naturopathy last year. Some of my habits, I’ll admit, are not globally renowned to be the greatest or healthiest in a long term sense, but my have they drastically improved since starting my degree. I am still learning what works and how to achieve personal balance and I think THIS should be the ultimate goal. What is living if not constantly gaining knowledge?

I like to believe my recognition of this will allow me to be a great practitioner one day. A PRACTICAL practitioner. No one is perfect and we learn what works along the way 💭

We only get one life so who am I to deny myself the common joy of a night out dancing with friends, a dessert, a day off and all the other things we are militantly sworn against.

Hey some day I will join that weekly run club, some day I will have 98% low-tox products and maybe even at some point in the future my bed time WILL be 8pm but for now… i don’t think it makes me a fraud that I’m not there yet because at the end of the day I’m still a human whose still learning to do her best! 💆🏻‍♀️

Cool people loveeee EVOO and I will die on this hill 🫒

I promise this is not just propaganda despite the fact I put it on literally everything. I'm talking eggs, toast, pasta, fish, salad, butter chicken, roasted veg, tuna and rice, even a drizzle on soup right before I eat it. People act shocked at how much I use but extra virgin olive oil is genuinely one of the most researched foods out there, plus I think it's delicious💫🥚🐟🌶️

It's rich in heart healthy monounsaturated fats, full of antioxidants like polyphenols and vitamin E and it protects your cells from damage instead of being the cause. It reduces inflammation, supports brain function and helps lower bad LDL cholesterol. This is all food science by the way not just my wellness girl mysticism🤸🏻‍♂️🧘🏻‍♀️🩷

I’ve included some of my fav Australian olive oil brands as only ones that are MADE HERE ensure peak freshness, superior quality control and adherence to strict Australian Olive Association standards. Local oils travel a shorter distance from harvest to bottle, preserve healthy antioxidants and vibrant flavor profiles compared to older, oxidised imports. Just cause it says “greek” on it doesn’t mean it’s better for you trust me!!!

To those who are scared of the fat, good quality fats are NOT the enemy, they're working in favour of your heart and your brain. The fear of olive oil and fat in general really needs to stay in the 2000s with the fat free yoghurt 🍨

Unfortunately though, it is still calorie dense. A tablespoon is roughly 120 calories, so more isn't always better here. Cooking with it generously, yes. Drowning your salad in it every single day and wondering why your calories don't add up, maybe not🥗🫒🥬

I'm not apologising for the bottle that I use religiously as a condiment though. So if you're still an 'extra virgin' when it comes to olive oil, I think its time to lose your (e)V(oo) card.

Cool people love EVOO, scared people are still buying spray canola 😌🎯🧎🏻‍♀️🤢

This list could honestly go on and on and ON 🧁

I’m not perfect, no one is. I treasure my social life, I love a good dessert from time to time and I’m a human not a machine!

My habits have definitely become so much more positive since starting my Bachelor of Clinical Nutrition and Naturopathy but sometimes, old habits die hard!!

Don’t let ANYONE on the internet make you feel like you you’re not living right if you feel good, look good and feel healthy. That is of most importance 🍓

These all make me annoying, they also all make me feel good! 💆🏻‍♀️🥝

Some of these things I’ve been doing for years before starting my studies and yes I was called insane for them but hey at least they’re catching on now 🙈

Making the decision to cut out all fast food was CRAZY hard and I’m not saying everyone has to, but for me, it was a test of discipline and a form of defiance against what’s constantly pushed on us to consume. 8 months later and nothing has ever smelt worse to me!

Shoutout @yuka_app_us for always keeping me informed on what I’m putting in (or on!) my body. Their ratings are backed by scientific studies done on the ingredients which are educational and fascinating to read. Some things would really surprise (or upset) you!

Maybe I’ll make a list of non-crunchy things I do as a wellness student…
One thing I’ll never do is ditch coffee for matcha completely, I love both! 🍵☕️

Reformer Pilates: my version of the truth 🫧
(p.s not YET an expert, just loving my experience so far!)

It looks cute and is fun (once your class is over lol) but did you know reformer pilates was originally created during WWI to help injured and bedridden soldiers build strength, alignment and body awareness without needing to stand?? It was designed to condition the body as a whole rather than isolating muscles like we do when lifting weights

That’s why good reformer feels SO different. It improves posture, stability, mobility and strength all at once + it’s not supposed to be easy!

It was brought to my attention yesterday that Hailey Bieber recently said Pilates is starting to feel like a “fad” because some instructors are prioritising aesthetics and social media vibes over proper form and… I kinda agree 😬 Reformer without the “form” is not reformer at all!! The precision and control is the entire point

But let it be known, Pilates is not a fad. My hot take so far is that reformer + weight training is one of the best combos for building a strong, balanced and injury resistant body, not just reformer by itself. Think of it as an additional shield for your body against injury

I’ve been loving reformer 3x a week lately and I’m SO excited to start my reformer certification this year too!! (on top of my degree… yikes lol) 🤎 I’ll definitely be prioritising form
