Question 1

Poor Digestion

Accepted Answer

Symptoms like gas, bloating, reflux (GERD or LPR), indigestion, burping, stomach cramping, or an H. pylori infection are signs that something’s not quite right at the top end of your digestive system.

This includes the mouth, stomach, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder—all of which play a critical role in breaking down your food and getting your digestion off to the right start.
 When this early stage of digestion is out of sync, it can create a ripple effect further down the digestive tract.

Question 2

Compromised Gut Health

Accepted Answer

This refers to imbalances or damage in the small and large intestines—where your body digests food, absorbs nutrients, and regulates much of your immune system.

Issues like flatulence, constipation, diarrhea, IBS, IBD, food intolerances, parasites, SIBO, candida, leaky gut, and histamine intolerance are signs that your gut lining or microbiome may be compromised.

When this part of your digestive system is out of balance, it can lead to chronic inflammation and immune dysfunction—often contributing to autoimmune conditions, fatigue, skin issues, mood changes, and more. Supporting gut health at this level is key to restoring overall well-being from the inside out.

Question 3

Auto & Immunity Conditions

Accepted Answer

These issues often stem from an overactive or confused immune system—and can show up in many ways throughout the body. Think immune-driven conditions like Epstein-Barr virus, hay fever, sinus infections, Hashimoto’s, Graves’ disease, rheumatoid arthritis, coeliac disease, alopecia, and more.

Whether it’s recurring infections or long-term autoimmune conditions, these challenges often have underlying triggers in the gut, immune system, or hormonal balance.

Identifying and reducing these triggers, calming inflammation, and supporting immune resilience is key to managing flares and restoring balance.

Question 4

Burnout & Exhaustion

Accepted Answer

Feeling wired but tired? Waking through the night or struggling to get through the day despite a full night’s sleep?

These symptoms often point to imbalances in the nervous system, adrenal function, and nutrient stores—especially when paired with high stress, poor sleep quality, or fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest.

Think: low energy, nutrient deficiencies, high stress, insomnia, sleep apnea, restless legs, or waking tired.

We work to identify what’s disrupting your energy and sleep—whether it’s blood sugar imbalances, inflammation, nutrient gaps, or stress overload—so you can start to restore deep rest, recharge your energy, and feel like yourself again.

Question 5

Weight Management & Metabolic Health

Accepted Answer

Struggling with weight that won’t budge, elevated cholesterol, or high blood pressure?
These symptoms often stem from imbalances in the metabolic and cardiovascular systems—where hormones like insulin and cortisol, and factors like inflammation and diet, play a big role.

Think: weight management challenges, insulin resistance, type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, or cardiovascular disease.

Together, we work to understand your unique metabolic picture, uncover underlying drivers, and support your body with practical nutrition and lifestyle shifts that promote balanced blood sugar, healthy weight, and long-term heart health.

Question 6

Thyroid Conditions

Accepted Answer

Your thyroid plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, energy, and overall hormonal balance.
Whether you're dealing with hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, thyroiditis, or goitre, these conditions can impact how you feel day-to-day—think fatigue, weight changes, mood shifts, and temperature sensitivity.

This part of the body sits at the front of the neck, but its effects ripple throughout your whole system.

At Paula Grubb Nutrition, we help identify what’s driving your thyroid imbalance and support you with targeted nutrition, lifestyle strategies, and a root-cause approach to restore better thyroid function and overall well-being.
