Fats
Fat has had a lot of bad press over the last 60 years, but the reality is that fats are essential for health. They not only provide energy and are required for the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E and K), they are also critical to cell membrane health and hence optimal cell function. Fats are made up of a row of carbon atoms joined together by either single or double carbon-to-carbon bonds. These carbon chains vary in length (hence the terms long, medium and s...hort chain fats).
It is these carbon-to-carbon bonds that dictate whether a fat is classified as being saturated, monounsaturated or polyunsaturated. All fats contain a blend of these different types, however each fat will typically be dominant in one type e.g. coconut oil primarily contains saturated fats, olive oil monounsaturated fats and sunflower oil polyunsaturated fats. Saturated fats are typically solid at room temperature and are less susceptible to damage by heat/light. Saturated fats are typically found in animal based products - butter, cheese, cream, milk and meat as well as in palm and coconut oil. Poly and mono unsaturated fats are typically liquids at room temperature and are found in virtually all meat and plant based foods. Olive oil is an excellent source of monounsaturated fat and sunflower oil is a good source of polyunsaturated fats.
For sometime now we have been advised to reduce saturated fat and increase vegetable oil (poly and mono unsaturated fats) intake to help reduce the risk of developing chronic health problems and in particular cardio vascular disease (CVD). Whilst it is true that vegetable oils (e.g. sunflower, safflower and rapeseed) and olive oil possess a number of compounds that have been clearly shown to confer significant health benefits to the recipient (as shown with the Mediterranean Diet), it should be noted that these benefits only occur when consuming these oils unheated. These oils are delicate in nature, due to the presence of the carbon-to-carbon double bonds and are easily damaged by the action of heat, creating a number of toxic by products that the science clearly shows are connected to a multitude of adverse health effects including ironically an increased risk of cardio vascular disease.
In summary, aim to use cold pressed organically produced vegetable oils for unheated consumption (e.g. on salads/dressings) and saturated fats (e.g. coconut oil, lard, duck fat, beef dripping) for heating/cooking.

How Toxic is Your World?
We live in a world that is literally awash with a concoction of untested chemicals. They are in soaps, detergents, cleaning products, furniture, cars, trains, planes, till receipts, plastics, paints, carpets, clothes, cosmetics, drinking water and food….and this is certainly not an exhaustive list! Not only have approximately 80,000 chemicals been released into the environment since the end of the Second World War, the majority of them have never been... thoroughly tested with respect to their potential effect on human health. Studies suggest that you do not have to be exposed to a high dose of these toxins to experience harmful effects. We are only now just beginning to see the results of this ‘experiment’ that all of us (and there are no international boundaries involved) are unwittingly involved in.
Some of these chemicals have been classified as ‘hormone disruptors’, meaning that they interfere with the intricate balance of hormones in both humans and wildlife, potentially leading to developmental and reproductive problems. In particular there is concern over the ever increasing number of hormone related disorders in both humans and wildlife and the results of recent scientific research that links specific hormone disruptive chemicals to the continued rise in specific health conditions, including adverse pregnancy outcomes, thyroid disease, hormonally driven cancers, early puberty, obesity and type 2 diabetes.
The United Nations and the World Health Organisation have jointly published a report that identifies these potential problems and calls for more research to understand the link between the chemicals in our environment and specific health conditions, with the aim of reducing the ever burgeoning burden on our already strained healthcare systems.
It is unfortunately now impossible to escape being expose to some extent to toxins, but the good news is that you can dramatically reduce the total toxic load that you are under, by making sensible lifestyle choices when it comes to what you eat, drink, wear and use. For example avoid consuming plastic bottled water (especially carbonated), filter your drinking and bathing water, eat organic foods, purchase environmentally friendly/or make your own house hold detergents/dishwashing/cleaning and laundry products, stop using a fabric conditioner, think carefully about the use of garden chemicals/lawn treatments, use natural soaps/shampoos and reduce the use of personal care products and cosmetics/seek out natural alternatives. Consuming a nutrient dense diet as well as directly supporting optimal liver and gut health are also key actions.

Stomach Acid is Crucial For Health
Stomach acid is not a design flaw of the body (which is often how it is portrayed), but is in fact crucial for optimal health and well-being.
Without appropriate levels of stomach acid, the whole digestive process starts off on the wrong foot. Proteins need to be broken down into their component parts (amino acids) for efficient absorption further down the digestive tract and stomach acid is essential for this process to happen efficiently.... Amino acids are the building blocks of life itself and low levels caused by sub optimal digestion can cause significant systemic problems including fatigue, depression and poor immune function. The efficient absorption of vitamin B12 and minerals is also dependent on sufficient levels of stomach acid. B12 is crucial for energy production, mental/nerve function and cardio vascular health and minerals have been described as ‘the spark plugs of life’. Ironically sub optimal levels of stomach acid contribute to the depletion of the very nutrients that are required to make it (zinc and B vitamins are particularly important).
Some typical symptoms that might suggest less than optimal levels of stomach acid include bloating, cramping, gas/belching shortly after a meal, reflux/heartburn, parasitic and yeast infections, feeling tired after a meal, problems digesting animal protein, nausea, bad breath, skin problems, undigested food in stools, increased susceptibility to food poisoning, rectal itching, IBS, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, food sensitivities and weak fingernails. The presence of elevated levels of Helicobacter pylori a bacterium that commonly inhabits the stomach and prefers a less acidic environment, can on its own be one of the key causes of sub optimal stomach acid production.
If you suspect that you might have sub optimal levels of stomach acid, the following actions may well help: consume ginger and sauerkraut, avoid drinking large amounts of fluid just before and after eating a meal, eat smaller meals, consume the largest meal of the day when you are the least stressed, chew your food thoroughly, sit down and take your time to eat and consider taking a ‘food state’ multi vitamin and mineral supplement, using digestive bitters (natural stomach acid stimulants) and the use of very specific stomach acid supplementation. Please note that if you are taking any medications or have any significant health concerns, it is essential that you work with a suitably qualified health practitioner/doctor before taking any supplementation.

Coeliac Disease is not the only significant Gluten Related Disorder
Gluten related disorders (GRDs) include coeliac disease (CD) and non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). The evidence base shows that GRDs (not just CD) are a serious threat to long-term health and well-being.
GRDs are fundamentally caused by the inability of the body to properly digest gluten (the storage protein in grains), typically driven by imbalances in the bacterial species of the gut in combination wi...th genetic predisposition. Anyone with a GRD should completely eliminate gluten from the diet permanently in order to repair the damage that has been done and regain health and wellbeing.
CD is the autoimmune variant of GRDs where the immune system attacks and destroys the small intestine reducing the ability of the body to absorb nutrients and is connected with over 300 different conditions. CD can be diagnosed using a combination of blood, genetic and physical assessments.
NCGS on the other hand is not an autoimmune disease and is therefore generally viewed as being a much less serious condition. This is simply not true. There is also a ‘new kid on the block’ called Non Coeliac Wheat Sensitivity (NCWS) where gluten is not necessarily the trigger, but instead significant immune system reactions and damage to the intestine are being triggered by other components of wheat.
CD is therefore not the only GRD that should be taken seriously. The results of a large study that reviewed 351,000 intestinal biopsies clearly showed that there was not only just as much inflammation detected with NCGS as with CD, but also that the increased risk of early mortality was 72% with NCGS compared to 39% with CD! If you then also consider that recent studies are now showing that blood markers for the detection of systemic autoimmunity are nearly double with NCWS (NCGS is a sub section of this category) compared to CD, you can start to appreciate that both gluten and wheat can have serious implications for those individuals that do not have CD but instead NCGS/NCWS. Further research needs to be conducted in this area, but these findings are very revealing.
So, if you are presenting with any chronic condition that cannot be explained, then please seriously consider getting professional assistance evaluating the potential for the existence of a GRD. Remember that eliminating wheat/gluten before you have had a professional assessment is not advised.

Parkinson's and Autoimmunity - Regaining Control Seminar - 28th March - starting at 7 pm - The Donnington Valley Hotel, Newbury, RG14 3AG. Free of Charge. Please email peter.sidell@sky.com if you wish to attend.
Autoimmunity is loss of ‘self tolerance’ caused by the immune system attacking the body’s own tissues. The latest research is showing that Parkinson's is autoimmune in nature. There are over 80 autoimmune diseases including type 1 diabetes, coeliac disease, lupus, rhe...umatoid arthritis, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, Crohn’s disease, colitis, Hashimoto’s and Raynaud’s and their incidence across the World continues to explode. It is now estimated that over 600 million people globally are presenting with an autoimmune disease.
It is now 12 years since the concept that autoimmunity develops via a complex interaction between our genetic base and our environment was first postulated. The single largest point of interaction between our environment and our genetic base takes place in the gut - the small intestine has the surface area of a tennis court.
Our genes are set at conception, however the environment is to a large extent and depending on individual circumstances controllable, as is the health and permeability (leakiness) of the gut. Current thinking is that by modulation of both the environment and intestinal permeability (leakiness of the gut), it might be possible to not only arrest the development of autoimmunity, but also potentially even reverse it.
‘……..once the autoimmune process is activated, it is not self-perpetuating; rather, it can be modulated or even reversed…..’
Professors Fasano and Shea-Donohue - Nature Reviews Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2005
This seminar is designed to take you on a journey through the latest research relating to the processes that are now believed to be central to the initiation and development of autoimmunity.
The seminar will explore some of the key interventions that have been developed and are being successfully employed to help people presenting with these devastating conditions to take back control of their health, with a particular focus on Parkinson's.

Food is the Most Powerful Medicine Known to Humankind
We all know that the NHS is under considerable pressure. The cost of diabetes alone to the NHS is over £1.5 million per hour (Diabetes UK). The conventional medical view on type 2 diabetes (T2D) is that this condition is irreversible and requires long-term medication to control.
We (the so called ‘alternative health care industry’) have known for sometime that T2D typically responds very well to specific dietary and lifes...tyle interventions. I have seen first hand clients come off/reduce their diabetic medications by making substantial changes to their diets and lifestyle (working in collaboration with their GPs). This scenario reminds me of the classic Mark Twain quote ..........

Thank you so much to everyone who attended the 'Autoimmunity - Regaining Control' event that was held at Lime Wood Hotel in the New Forest yesterday evening. It was great to see a full house and so much interest in this subject. I would also like to say a big thank you to the hotel management and staff for all their hard work to make the event run as smoothly as it did. The canapés, which were all 'autoimmune paleo' friendly, were exceptional so a very big thank you to Sheila and her very talented Raw and Cured team for all their hard work. Finally I would also like to thank Hifas da Terra for supporting the event and donating samples of their Mico-Serum product.

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) - breaking the vicious cycle....
UTIs are very common, especially in women. It is estimated that 1 in 5 women will have a UTI at some point in their lifetime and once you have had one infection you are much more likely to have another. The standard medical treatment is with antibiotics. The problem with antibiotic treatment is that whilst it will tend to work in the short term (and is often an essential treatment to avert a more serious infecti...on of the kidneys), there is an increased risk of developing imbalances in the beneficial bacteria (microflora of the gut and urinary tract) and antibiotic resistance (which has recently been described as a significant threat to our future health by Professor Dame Sally Davies – England’s Chief Medical Officer). It is the disruption of the microflora in conjunction with growing antibiotic resistance that are the key reasons as to why UTIs often re-occur.......

The Problem with Coeliac Disease
Coeliac disease (CD) is not a minor ‘intolerance’ to gluten, it is an autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system attacks the small intestine, reducing the ability of the body to absorb nutrients from food. If left undetected, CD has the potential to cause significant long-term health complications. CD is one of the most common life long disorders in North America and Europe and only 1 in 8 coeliacs are ever diagnosed. These are disturbing facts.......

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)?
The digestive system is about 30ft in length from entrance to exit and consists of the following major sections in order from top down: The mouth, throat, stomach, small intestine (duodenum) and large intestine (colon). As I have mentioned many times previously, the digestive tract is home to a complex community of bacteria (approximately 100 trillion), which should not only in balance for health and well being, but also should have the largest number of bacteria residing in the colon.

Part 3 of April Seminar Video Recording now available..... If you missed the seminar in April on Sensitivities, Chronic Inflammation and Autoimmunity, then I am posting the recording of the event, broken down into stages on www.entirewellbeing.com. The third section is now available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hDkr8oNH 4I&feature=youtu.be and discusses autoimmunity, testing and the road to health.

Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia and Energy Production
I regularly see clients presenting with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). This is where the client has fatigue that is so debilitating that they are virtually unable to function or undertake normal every day tasks. Often CFS presents as fibromyalgia, which is chronic fatigue with the added burden of widespread pain and stiffness throughout the body.
It is believed that the pain associated with fibromyalgia is caused when the m...itochondria (the energy production plants in our cells) desperate to supply appropriate levels of energy to the body, switch from efficient aerobic (using oxygen) to inefficient anaerobic (not using oxygen) metabolism. This anaerobic form of energy production creates large amounts of lactic acid. Lactic acid, as anyone who pushes themselves hard when exercising knows, causes immediate muscle pain, which dissipates after a few minutes of rest. This pain however does not dissipate with fibromyalgia, as the body is unable to break the lactic acid down, due to mitochondrial dysfunction (not working properly). The excess lactic acid can also cause damage to the muscle tissue, presenting as very sensitive areas on the body. This process can feed on itself as the damage to the muscles releases a large number of free radicals (destructive molecules), which can cause additional damage if antioxidant status (the ability to neutralise free radical damage) is low.
Mitochondrial dysfunction is therefore one of the key areas to focus on when it comes to helping move the body back into balance with CFS and fibromyalgia. So what are the key ingredients required for healthy mitochondria? They require a raft of key nutrients for optimal performance, including but not limited to magnesium, B vitamins, essential fats, CoQ10, carnitine and alpha lipoic acid and must not be bathed in toxins.
Whilst clearly mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the key areas to focus on with these conditions, it should be noted that there are often multiple systemic imbalances going on, including but not limited to digestive dysfunction, poor antioxidant status, immune system dysregulation, chronic inflammation, viral infections, food and/or environmental sensitivities/allergies, thyroid and adrenal dysfunction and micronutrient deficiencies. Everything in the body is connected and nothing exists in isolation.
Once again looking at the body from a functional and holistic perspective is key to any potential solution to these devastating conditions.

The Gut and Mental Health
It is not a new concept that a ‘gut brain’ axis exists and I have touched on this subject before in previous posts.
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that regulates mood, appetite and sleep and when there are appropriate levels in the brain we feel relaxed and positive. This is the principle behind the drugs called Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs), to increase levels of serotonin available to the central nervous system. It is the gut not... the brain however that is responsible for over 90% of total serotonin production.
In the gut, serotonin controls how ‘regular’ you are and it is the balance of the bacterial species in our gut that would appear to play a significant role in the amount of serotonin that is produced. This might well explain why not only a significant relationship exists between those individuals presenting with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and depression, but also why when Doctors prescribe SSRIs for depression, those presenting with IBS often see improvements in digestive function.
Interestingly, a new study has just found real evidence in humans (not rodents as has been the case until now) that our emotional responses, including anxiety and depression vary considerably depending on the balance of the bacterial species in the gut. The results of this study not only suggests that there is a strong link between the bacterial composition of our guts and how good we feel, but more extraordinarily that the balance of our gut bacteria may actually change the physical structure of the brain by either growing the frontal cortex or shrinking the hippocampus – areas of the brain involved in problem solving, emotional regulation and consciousness. Understanding that the gut microflora can play such a significant role in the chemical balance of the brain is one thing, but that these microbes might initiate actual physical changes in the brain is another!
This may well be the reason why in clinical practice I often see clients that are presenting with low mood/depression and anxiety, experience significant improvements in their overall mental health and wellbeing as we work on identifying and eliminating key food and environmental sensitivities and supporting overall gut health.

Migraines
Migraines are debilitating vascular headaches, which usually happen on one side of the head. Migraines are thought to affect around 1 in 7 people with an estimated 190,000 migraine attacks every day in the UK affecting three times as many women as men and accounting for an estimated 25 million days lost from work and school each year.
The typical sequence of events is that an initial spasm happens in the wall of a meningeal artery (one of the arteries in the head);... the spasm does not last long (a few minutes) and is followed by a paralysis of the wall of the artery, which can last for days. This paralysis leads to swelling and inflammation of tissues around the artery wall, causing the pain (migraine).
So what causes the spasm in the first place? Many factors are thought to be involved, but one of the key contributors is an over accumulation of toxins in the body. Liver and gut health are fundamental areas to critically evaluate and support due to the crucial role that these two organs play with respect to optimal detoxification.
If an imbalance in the gut bacteria (dysbiosis) is present (a common thread in my articles) then the ‘bad’ bacteria can cause an overproduction of histamine in the gut. Histamine is secreted by specialist immune cells as part of a local immune response to the presence of unwanted bacteria/triggers. It is the excess levels of histamine that causes blood pressure to drop too low and initiate the spasm that starts the sequence of events.
Unidentified food sensitivities (where the immune system is inappropriately responding to specific food proteins) causing elevated levels of inflammation are also potentially a significant trigger for migraines. Research and clinical experience would suggest that gluten related disorders (encompassing wheat sensitivity, coeliac disease and non coeliac gluten sensitivity – another common thread in these articles) are significantly correlated with migraines. Other factors involved would appear to be magnesium status (low magnesium is a significant and independent predictor of migraine risk) and B vitamin deficiencies.

Autoimmunity – Food For Thought
Autoimmunity is loss of ‘self tolerance’ caused by the immune system attacking the body’s own tissues. There are over 80 autoimmune diseases. Common conditions that are classified as autoimmune include type 1 diabetes, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, Crohn’s disease, colitis, Hashimoto’s (accounts for over 90% of low thyroid conditions) and Raynaud’s and their incidence across the World continues to explode. Why is t...his happening? It is now estimated that over 600 million people globally are presenting with an autoimmune disease and women are 2.7 times more likely to present with such a condition than men.
It is now over ten years since the concept that autoimmunity develops via a complex interaction between our genetic base and our environment was first postulated. The single largest point of interaction between our environment and our genetic base takes place in the gut - the small intestine has the surface area of a tennis court. It is interesting to note that digestive dysfunction is a very common symptom with individuals presenting with autoimmunity.
Our genes are set at conception, however the environment is to a large extent and depending on individual circumstances controllable, as is the health and permeability (leakiness) of the gut. Current thinking is that by modulation of both the environment and intestinal permeability (leakiness of the gut), it might be possible to not only arrest the development of autoimmunity, but also potentially even reverse it.
‘……..once the autoimmune process is activated, it is not self-perpetuating; rather, it can be modulated or even reversed…..’
Professors Fasano and Shea-Donohue - Nature Reviews Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2005
So by modulating the health of our digestive tract (using dietary and lifestyle interventions) in conjunction with removing specific triggers from our environment (removing/reducing - toxins/stress/bacterial and viral infections), we might be able to alter the outcome of these devastating diseases…….now that’s quite a thought.

Alzheimer’s - a multi-factoral approach rather than searching for that 'silver bullet'?
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia and it is estimated that 160 million people globally by 2050 will have this disease.
So far the search for a single ‘silver bullet’ pharmaceutical approach to treating AD has not delivered anything other than a temporary slight improvement in symptoms with no long term impact on disease progression.
... Recent biochemical research however would suggest that AD is both triggered and perpetuated by a complex interaction of different factors and that a multi-factoral approach to treating this devastating condition may provide better outcomes.
Pioneering work is being undertaken in this area by Dr Bredesen, who describes dementia as being primarily a ‘metabolic problem’. In a small but ground breaking study published in Aging in 2014, a 90% success rate in both arresting and reversing early stage AD was reported.
Dr Bredesen uses a combination of personalised dietary and lifestyle interactions (includes supporting digestive function, identifying imbalances in the gut, correcting identified nutrient deficiencies, optimising vitamin D levels, eating food over a particular window of time in the day, assessing metal toxicity, optimising sleep, increasing exercise and movement, reducing inflammation, identifying food sensitivities, supporting mitochondrial function and stimulating the brain) with the client to achieve substantial results over a 3 to 12 month period.
Larger clinical trials are currently underway in the UK and USA. These results on the face of it look to good to be true, but in reality simply reflect the obvious which is that chronic disease is rooted in the mismatch between our genetics and the modern world that we have created for us to live in. Your environment (diet, toxic load, stress/trauma, and infections) is fundamental to your long-term health and well-being and should be one of the first areas to seriously evaluate when confronted with any chronic condition.
What makes you, you is unique to you and this is the premise behind the ‘functional model’ of health. Working with a functionally trained health practitioner on any chronic condition, along with the required work and commitment that these types of interventions require, can provide significant health benefits.

My journey to well being over the last nine months is nothing short of life changing.

Mark’s detailed accurate and prompt attention is a breath of fresh air .

I can’t thank you enough and keep up the good work.

I went to see Mark for help dealing with stress-related IBS. After a thorough chat and meeting, I felt comfortable and happy to discuss my life and diet with him so he could make recommendations. Mark put me on a 28 day detox before creating a plan for going forward. This has been incredibly helpful and I would be happy to recommend him.

This quack states that herbivores do not produce stomach acid - total utter nonsense......... Herbivores have a stomach acid typically the same as humans - predator animals have a stomach acid of 1 on the PH scale which is why they can process raw meat without getting ill - you need to print a correction to this article - it's making me cringe! See comments for screen shot of article of nonsense - no sources either - just sweeping negative statements! Veganism not healthy - tell that to Serena Williams, David Hayes, Novak Djokovic, Jermain Defoe etc etc....

Terrible recent article in a free door to door item. Choline is present in everything from peanut butter, bananas, chickpeas, lentils, baked beans, soy milk, soya based veggie products. Vegans are not deficient in this. You’ll also find vegans are often ridiculously high for serum B12 due to the massive supplementation we all do due to the constant fear mongering over it.

Stop saying veganism isn’t healthy when I have so much energy I can’t contain it.

Makes sweeping statements citing no studies and blatant makes things up. He’s a QUACK.

Appears to let personal bias dictate his narrative.
