In this episode Lisa explains why the clinic only stocks specific supplement brands: absorption, form and meaningful dosage matter more than flashy marketing. She contrasts synthetic versus active forms, explains genetic differences that affect conversion, and warns about misleading blood tests. The clinic’s choices are research-backed and may be lower-dose but more effective because they use bioavailable forms.

Mind the (Nutrient) Gap: Why Food Alone Might Not Be Enough

In this episode Lisa explains why a healthy-looking diet doesn’t always supply the nutrients your body needs. She defines the “nutrient gap”—the difference between what you eat and what your body actually absorbs—and walks through causes: soil depletion from intensive farming, aging-related absorption changes, and interfering medications. Using examples like declining mineral levels in modern foods, Lisa makes the case for targeted supplementation when necessary. She emphasizes that supplements aren’t a substitute for good food, but a tool to fill real gaps so your body can function optimally and chiropractic care can be more effective.

Beyond Symptoms: Rethinking What 'Healthy' Really Means

In this episode Lisa challenges the common assumption that absence of symptoms equals good health. She shares alarming UK statistics on healthy life expectancy and chronic disease, and explains why many people who report feeling ‘well’ still have long-term conditions or take multiple medications. Using the ‘health bucket’ metaphor, she argues that problems accumulate quietly before symptoms appear. Lisa also highlights simple checks — chiropractic assessments, targeted blood tests, and thermography — that can reveal early dysfunctions. The goal: shift from reacting to symptoms to identifying and addressing root causes earlier.
