Sally T. Transforms

First step. Taking ownership of our bodies and health.

How we are feeling is our responsibility. Not a medical therapist, our families, governments or external factors. This mindset shift is the beginning of the road to wellness. A lifelong journey.

Nutrition and lifestyle practices we can control and it is the cornerstone and foundation to all functions of our bodies. If neglected there is a gradual down spiral to our quality of life. In some cases small tweaks only are necessary and in other instances a major overhaul is needed – like our cars going for a major service. Whatever is required is worth the Time, Energy and Money.

Our fast- paced lives today drain our bodies more than we realize. Staying on top of our game for our work, studying, sports, business, and health requires us to aim for optimum body functioning. It is more difficult than ever. This is the only body we have.

So what’s the fuss??

Right – so let’s get started.

Well How Well am I? This often depends on individual perceptions to health. What standards of well being are personally important.
Starting to recognize that intervention is required is the entry level to the Road to Wellness
Once we realize that we need to be proactive we can move forward

Take a simple quick health check on the website. This will highlight if there are some issues that need improvement.
Realizing that our health can be improved upon is easy for some. They are in tune with their bodies and can quickly identify when health is not going as well as it could be. For others this is a lot more difficult. Their body is there to serve them and only when it grinds to a halt do they realise that things are not what they should be. What are you like?

Embrace the Joy in Growing Older!

Our hormones start changing in our 30’s. The more optimum our nutritional status the better these processes are handled. As the next stage in our life cycle approaches – changes become more evident. Depending on a person’s life experiences and nutritional history symptoms can be profound or hardly noticed. Around 50 years of age, certain signs of the next life cycle occur. Each sex exhibits its own distinctive signs of change. These need not be crippling.

Suggestion from Sally T: Balanced hormones keep our bodies functioning at peak performance. This is critical for a fulfilling life. Our hormones are the 'balancing' powerhouses of our bodies. Keeping them in balance is critical and a lifelong journey. Our hormones change through the different stages of life. It is especially important to have blood tests done to accurately assess and balance the hormonal profile.

Stress is directly linked to our hormonal cascade. Keeping a handle on how life’s issues are addressed is the first step in hormonal control.

Sleep: Good quality sleep is a baseline for long-term good health.

Nutritional supplement boost:

Eat wisely for blood sugar control: See previous notes.

Weight control: Address weight gain – it can be done.

Exercise: One of the best anti-aging remedies. And freely available.

Menstrual Cycle Health Evaluation

Does your Menstrual Cycle Impact your life?

This should be a non event. For some women, their monthly cycle goes unnoticed. For others it can control and wreck havoc in their lives, relationships, work performance and general health. In many instances nutritional supplements and food changes can be a game changer. Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are the three hormones that are most often out of balance in women. The are made by your ovaries and in much smaller amounts, by your adrenal glands (They are also called steroid hormones or sex hormones) Simplified graph of normal hormonal changes during the month.

Suggestion from Sally T:

People are not aware that PMS is not a normal scenario and we were not designed to 'suffer' every month. Consider the following:

Balance blood sugar:
  • First line of attack. Combine complex carbs and proteins throughout the day
  • Blood sugar levels tend to dive a week before a period if hormones out of balance.
  • This makes weight stabilization difficult as the weight lost during the month is often regained at this time.
Nutritional supplementation: Hormonal fine tuning:
  • Estrogen dominance could be a factor.
  • If still issues after addressing the blood sugar and adding nutritional supplementation then:
  • Try Bioidentical transdermal Natural Progesterone with the assistance of a Functional Medical Practitioner.

Points to consider: You are unique. Genetically there is no one else like you!! Not even your identical twin (if you have one). From the moment of conception, nutritional, genetic, biochemical and environmental factors that you are exposed to create us who we are.

Sally T. methodology takes this individuality very much into account.

You can experience your optimum health. Getting to the point where, when after a good night’s sleep you wake up feeling refreshed, energised and ready to take on the challenges of the day is achievable.

Making changes is tough and can be overwhelming.

Sally T. methodology takes this individuality very much into account. Besides you are seen as a whole person one part of our bodies hugely affects another. Symptoms are interrelated. At Sally T. these concepts are embraced. Suggested intervention highlights that which would best suite your genetic makeup, lifestyle and finances.

You can experience your optimum health. Getting to the point where, when after a good night’s sleep you wake up feeling refreshed, energised and ready to take on the challenges of the day is achievable.

Making changes can be overwhelming.
Initially is suggested that the main problem areas be target first with food changes and supplementation. Longer term goals can then be addressed thereafter.

Take one step at a time.
Be kind to yourself. Health issues can be the result of physical or psychological difficulties or even trauma.

Our Brains. The power house. This is often overlooked and a whole section will be dedicated to the brain. It is vital for on going vitality and wellness.
There is an intricate relationship between our physical and mental health. Believe it or not but even the state of your gut has repercussions on the state of your mind. Some neurotransmitters needed for optimum brain function are manufactured in your gut. Brain neurotransmitters mainly derived from proteins are the powerhouses for brain functioning. Balancing our neurotransmitters is an intricate process. It affects our moods, brain performance, energy, emotions, personality and sleep.

So It all starts with making the decision to change. This means being proactive in the choices we make. Choosing foods and nutritional supplements wisely is a lifestyle game changer. Energy levels are enhanced, overall health and well being improve. It is one of the most effective anti-aging factors. The base line to health and well-being is what we eat and what we pop into our mouths.

Why should we bother? All this effort …. And nutrition …. I like eating what I do …… Wise choices are worth it !!
