Could Your Child’s DNA Be Affecting Their Ability to Concentrate?

If your child struggles to focus, gets easily distracted, feels overwhelmed or finds learning harder than it should be, you’re not alone—and you’re not imagining it.

Many parents sense something deeper is going on beyond behaviour, discipline or effort. And increasingly, science is showing that a child’s genetics—combined with nutrition, lifestyle, and environment—can influence how well their brain concentrates, regulates emotions and processes information.

The Hidden Reason Some Children Struggle to Focus, Settle and Cope (That Most Parents Never Test)

Many parents today are doing all the “right” things.

They choose healthier foods.
They prioritise sleep.
They try to support emotional wellbeing.

And yet, they still notice subtle challenges in their children:

• difficulty focusing
  
• big emotional reactions
  
• trouble settling at night
  
• frequent illness or gut issues
  
• overwhelm or sensitivity
  

Often, these struggles are framed as behavioural or developmental.
But emerging science suggests there may also be a quieter, biological factor at play:

How Much Protein Do You Really Need in Your 40s, 50s and Beyond?

Why Protein Matters More With Every Decade

If you’re in your mid-40s, 50s or beyond, you’ve probably noticed that things change. Energy might dip, recovery takes longer, and the muscle tone you had in your 20s or 30s seems harder to hold onto. This isn’t just “getting older”—it’s biology.

As we age, one of the most powerful predictors of healthy, vibrant living isn’t your cholesterol score or even your weight—it’s your muscle mass and strength. Research shows that maintaining muscle is directly tied to your risk of falls, independence, metabolic health, bone health and even how long you live.

And the key nutrient that keeps muscle strong? Protein.

3 Blood Tests That Reveal How Fast You’re Really Aging

Is your body showing signs of aging on the inside?

Wrinkles and grey hairs only tell part of the story. Your blood holds powerful clues about how your body is handling sugar, inflammation and stress — the real drivers that shape how you age and how vibrant you feel each day.

Most doctors focus on what’s “normal.” At Radiate Wellness, I look for optimal — because that’s where energy, clarity and lasting vitality begin.

👉 Discover the 3 health markers that reveal if your body is aging gracefully or under extra strain.

6 Reasons Why a Spring Detox is Essential for Midlife Health (and How to Do It Right)

Spring has always been a season of renewal. Nature wakes up, the days lengthen and there’s a natural pull to clear out what no longer serves us—whether it’s clutter in the house or sluggishness in the body.

For men and women in their 40s, 50s and beyond, this seasonal rhythm isn’t just symbolic. It’s deeply biological. After all, our bodies are wired to shift with the seasons. However,  in modern life—with processed foods, late nights, toxins in our environment, and constant stress—we often lose touch with this natural cycle.

That’s why spring is the perfect time to hit reset. A gentle, guided cleanse supports your body’s own detoxification pathways, helps rebalance metabolism and sets you up to feel energised, clear and vibrant moving into summer.

How to Reduce Your Risk of Brain Degeneration as You Age

After 50, brain health becomes a use it or lose it game. The changes start quietly—slower recall, brain fog, mood shifts, more “What was I saying?” moments. But here’s the good news: science shows we can reduce our risk of brain degeneration with smart, proactive choices.

Here are 5 evidence-backed ways to keep your brain sharp, balanced and resilient:

Why Do I Wake Up Tired? (Even After 8 Hours of Sleep)

And What Your Body Might Be Trying to Tell You After 50

You go to bed at a reasonable hour. You clock in a solid 7 to 9 hours of sleep. You’re not up scrolling. You’ve even stopped the late-night Netflix binges. So why do you still wake up with that puffy-eyed, slow-start feeling like you've been hit by a dream-truck?

You’re not alone—and no, you’re not “just getting old.”

Why You Need These 3 Essential Health Tests After 40 (Even If You Feel Fine)

Let’s talk about something most midlife adults don’t do enough of: testing, not guessing.

You might be eating well, moving your body, and ticking all the “healthy” boxes—but if you’re over 40, feeling off, and wondering why your energy, mood, or metabolism just isn’t what it used to be… there could be hidden imbalances beneath the surface.

This isn’t about fear. It’s about clarity.

How to Reclaim Your Spark in Midlife by Understanding Metabolic Health

Midlife Feels Off? Your Metabolism Might Be Trying to Tell You Something

Let’s be honest — midlife can feel like someone swapped out your body while you weren’t looking.

You used to bounce back after a late night, keep up with a packed schedule, or eat a little extra and not pay for it in brain fog and bloat the next day. But now? You might wake up already tired, feel “hangry” between meals, or notice that stress hits harder than it used to.

This isn’t just aging. It’s your metabolism waving a flag.

Other days, it’s a full-blown storm: poor sleep, aching joints, emotional waves, brain fog and a kind of tiredness no nap can fix. You start to wonder: Is this just what happens now?

That was me.
