It is simply another FAD diet delivering empty promises. ⁠ ⁠ Our liver and kidneys are made to do all the hard work for us, so when 'detox' pops up, consider it a red flag. ⁠ ⁠ Need help separating fact from fiction?

Our Qr8 doctors and dietitians refer many patients for further investigation for PCOS.⁠ ⁠ As September is PCOS Awareness Month, Qr8's Dr Kristina chatted with PCOS expert, leading fertility specialist and gynaecologist, Dr Raewyn Teirney in our masterclass.⁠ ⁠ Click the link in bio to get access to the recording. ⁠
Are you finding it impossible to stop eating aroun Are you finding it impossible to stop eating around your period?⁠ ⁠ There is science-backed evidence that hormone fluctuations during our period or just before our period can stimulate our appetite. This may explain our pre-period munchies. ⁠ ⁠ Dealing with your period is not fun at all, so give yourself a well deserved snack that you've been craving. Just make sure you are keeping a well balanced diet.
