Hello October!


How’s everyone adjusting to this seasonal shift?

It is natural to find your energy fluctuate as the seasons change. Entering these autumnal months is exciting – bonfires, conkers and cosyness – and might be accompanied by a dip in energy levels and a call to hibernate.

Here’s something you might not know: 85% of people with Vitamin B12 deficiency experience neurological, cognitive, or mental health symptoms. Fatigue, low mood, feelings worthlessness, and weakness are also common – so there’s no wonder that I welcome so many patients with low Vitamin B12 who have been misdiagnosed with anxiety, depression, menopause, or even waved away being told it’s a ‘natural part of the aging process.’
This week I came upon something worth sharing:

Food For The Brain’s cognitive function test. It’s a free and simple way to spot risk factors for memory loss, dementia and Alzheimer’s - so you can protect brain health before decline begins.

Meanwhile, if you feel you could do with an energy boost to carry you into autumn with more vigour, book your Vitamin B12 injection at my welcoming clinic. It’s the most effective way to give your body the Vitamin B12 it needs and get through the autumn fighting fit.
