Health benefits of fibre

Diabetes, Health, Iridology

Fibre keeps your blood sugar steadier, your digestion running smoothly, your heart healthier, and your appetite properly satisfied — and most of us in the UK aren't getting nearly enough of it. If you take one thing from this article, let it be this: fibre isn't a "nice to have" tucked away in the small print of a healthy eating plan. It's one of the most powerful, accessible tools you have for feeling well, day to day and for years to come. The good news? Getting more of it doesn't require anything complicated, expensive, or restrictive. It simply means choosing foods closer to how nature made them. Let's look at why fibre matters so much, and how to bring more of it into your everyday meals...

Blood sugar explained

Diabetes, Health, Iridology

Blood sugar, or blood glucose, is simply the amount of sugar travelling through your bloodstream at any given moment. It comes from the food you eat, and it's your body's main source of fuel — powering everything from your muscles to your brain. The goal isn't to avoid sugar altogether; it's to keep your levels steady, rather than letting them swing sharply up and down. That steadiness is where energy, mood, and long-term wellbeing really come from. Can exercise really cure diabetes? The answer is – it depends. Regular physical activity is one of the most powerful tools to help manage blood sugar levels and maintain a healthy BMI. However, exercise alone is not enough if poor lifestyle habits remain.

Obesity explained

Obesity simply means carrying more body fat than is healthy for your frame — typically defined in the UK as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or above. But that one-line definition barely scratches the surface. Obesity isn't a character flaw or a lack of willpower; it's a complex condition shaped by genetics, hormones, gut health, sleep, stress and the food environment we all live in. The encouraging news is that, for most people, it's also something that can be gently and sustainably improved — not through punishing diets, but through working with your body rather than against it. Are you ready to take control of your health and tackle obesity-driven diabetes head-on? In this engaging 45-minute webinar recording, we share practical, proven tips...

What is type 2 diabetes?

Diabetes, Health, Iridology

Type 2 diabetes is a long-term condition that occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough of it to keep blood sugar levels within a healthy range. As a result, glucose builds up in the bloodstream instead of being used efficiently by the body's cells for energy. The good news is that, for many people, type 2 diabetes is largely influenced by lifestyle. With the right combination of nourishing food, regular movement, stress management and professional guidance, many people can significantly improve their blood sugar control and overall wellbeing. The earlier it's recognised, the better the opportunity to make positive changes. 🔥 Living with Type 2 diabetes doesn't mean giving up the life you love. With the right daily habits, you can take...

What are unhealthy fats?

Diabetes, Health, Iridology

Many people think all fats are bad, but that's simply not true. Unhealthy fats are fats that can contribute to inflammation, poor heart health, weight gain, insulin resistance, and other long-term health problems when eaten regularly in excess. The main unhealthy fats are artificial trans fats and diets that are consistently high in heavily processed fats found in many packaged and fried foods. Some foods high in saturated fat may also be worth limiting, especially when they come from ultra-processed sources rather than whole foods. The good news is that your body actually needs healthy fats. Rather than fearing fat altogether, it's far more beneficial to focus on choosing natural, nourishing sources of fat while reducing heavily processed foods that can place extra stress on your...

What is type 1 diabetes?

Diabetes, Health, Iridology

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Without insulin, the body cannot move glucose from the bloodstream into its cells to be used as energy. This means blood sugar levels rise — and without management, this can become dangerous. Unlike type 2 diabetes, type 1 is not caused by lifestyle choices. It can develop at any age, though it most commonly appears in childhood or early adulthood. Can exercise really cure diabetes? The answer is — it depends. Regular physical activity is one of the most powerful tools to help manage blood sugar levels and maintain a healthy BMI. However, exercise alone is not enough if poor lifestyle habits remain. Watch:...

What are healthy fats - avocado, nuts, oily fish and olive oil banner

What are healthy fats?

Diabetes, Health, Iridology

Healthy fats are natural, minimally processed fats that support your body — nourishing your brain, protecting your heart, balancing your hormones, and fuelling you with steady, lasting energy. They are found in whole foods like avocados, olive oil, oily fish, nuts, seeds, and coconut, and unlike the damaged, processed fats found in most packaged foods, they work with your body rather than against it. For years, fat was painted as the enemy. Low-fat products lined the supermarket shelves, and we were told to avoid it wherever possible. But the reality is far more nuanced — and for many people, getting enough of the right kinds of fat has been one of the most important shifts they've made for their long-term health. 🥗 Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice...

We live in an age when more people than ever are taking nutritional supplements. Yet despite the shelves of products on offer — from budget supermarket multivitamins to premium health shop capsules — many people report that they feel no real benefit. Their energy remains low, their immunity weak, their health stagnant. Why? The answer, more often than not, comes down to one thing: quality. At Planet Wellness, we have spent over 50 years guiding clients across the UK towards better health through natural means. Time and again, we have seen that the right supplements, taken at therapeutic potency, can be truly transformative. And equally, we have seen how poor-quality supplements — however aggressively marketed — deliver little more than expensive urine. This blog explains why supplements matter,...

You've been feeling off for a while. Perhaps it's persistent fatigue that no amount of sleep seems to fix, a digestive system that never quite settles, or a vague sense that something isn't quite right — even though your GP has told you your tests are all normal. If this sounds familiar, you are far from alone. And there may be an answer that conventional medicine simply hasn't looked for yet. An iridology consultation offers something most health assessments cannot: a window into the body's underlying terrain — the constitutional strengths, inherited tendencies, accumulated stresses, and nutritional needs that shape how you feel every single day. At Planet Wellness, we have spent over 50 years helping people across the UK unlock the root causes of their...
