Today’s episode is on the topic of CFS, also known as ME - i.e. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I have the lovely Jo Foster on with me today. Jo’s a Nutritional Therapist, but also a CFS survivor. She suffered with debilitating symptoms over a period of about 7 years but now lives a completely normal, health and happy life.
We talk about what CFS actually is, how you get it, what the mechanisms are, and crucially, what to start thinking about in terms of treatment. You CAN heal from chronic fatigue syndrome, that much is certain, but it’s wholly misunderstood and under researched in our conventional health system.
We also touch on long covid briefly too, which may be of interest to some of you.

How To Prepare for a Successful Pregnancy with Sandra Greenbank
June 14, 2022
•62m
Hello and welcome back, finally, to the podcast. I’m so sorry it’s been so long!
Today I have the wonderful Sandra Greenbank on to talk about fertility. As you will hear, Sandra is incredibly well-respected in this field and her main role these days is to train other Nutritional Therapists, myself included, to be specialists in fertility nutrition as well as seeing her 1-on-1 clients.
In this episode we cover diet, of course, but also fertility testing (eg vaginal swabs, DNA fragmentation and other things you might consider with your nutritional therapist if you are undergoing any fertility treatment), plus PCOS and how that affects pregnancy outcomes, male factor infertility - actually we spend a long time discussing how to boost sperm health, toxicity and its effect on fertility status and much more.
There may be some topics in here that you might find sensitive, such as miscarriage, so please bear that in mind.
You can find Sandra online @sandragreenbank_fertility and @fertility.nutrition.centre

Thyroid Health with Tanya Borowski

Hello and welcome back to State of Mind, with me Grace Kingswell.
Today’s episode is on thyroid health and my guest is the sensational Tanya Borowski. Tanya is a Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and her list of accolades and qualifications is as long as my arm when it comes to health, nutrition and in particular thyroid health. She’s completed advanced Hashimotos and thyroid training with the world renowned Dar Datis Kharrazian (who let’s be honest, if you’re a Nutritional Therapist you probably have a knowledge crush on - I certainly do), and is honestly the best person I could think of to come on the podcast and talk about thyroid health with. I am so grateful to her for joining me as a guest!
Tanya has a way of making the complicated understandable, and we’ve endeavoured to condense a hugely complex topic into an episode that you’ll likely want to come back to time and time again.
In particular we cover what the thyroid gland is, why it’s so crucial for optimum health across ALL body systems, what nutrients it needs from diet to work well, what signs and symptoms to look out for with an under active or over active situation, autoimmunity of the thyroid (Hashimotos and graves disease in particular) and why it’s so common and SO much more.
Go find Tanya @tanyabrowski (I’m obsessed with her instagram) and please leave a 5 star review on the apple podcasts app or wherever you listen to your podcasts!
