What a bargain! Tasty and filling – swap for beef Osso Bucco if you don't like lamb, or more legumes if you're vegetarian. Start by soaking 1/2 cup dried beans overnight. For variety I'm using black beans (will use 1/2 cup for a mexican dish). Then brown 3-4 shanks (depends on size and how hungry your family is!),1 sliced leek and garlic in a little olive oil. Pour over stock (about 1 – 1/2 L), add 1 large fennel cut into 1/8 wedges, 1/2 large celeriac cut into chips, 1 purple carrot diced, 1 orange carrot diced and a slurp of organic red wine (optional, some for the chef too). Add a cinnamon stick, 1 tsp harissa, 1 bay leaf, 1 sprig of rosemary, 400g tomato passata. Bring to the boil, then slow roast on 160C for 2 hours until tender. Check stock level half way through and top up if needed. Your home will smell AMAZING! Steam some green beans or broccoli to serve. Also some Cracked Burghul instead of couscous. Cover 1 cup Burghul with just boiled water, let it soak up the liquid, then steam for 20 minutes. Add your greens towards the end and dinner is served.

Since seeing Michelle and through a combination of diet and exercise I lost 8kgs in 8 weeks. Amazing results in such a short period of time. I was absolutely ecstatic with the results, my whole body changed. I dropped a dress size and had a flat stomach for the first time in years. And I was actually enjoying exercising as I wasn’t carrying around so much weight. Read Full Success Story

I went to see Michelle, as I wanted advice on how to address my constant sinus pain and headaches. I also wanted to reduce my reliance on medication and increase my energy levels in the afternoon.
Michelle was able to confirm the foods that weakened my immune system. By eliminating these foods and taking a course of vitamins & herbs, my headaches vanished within a week. Read Full Success Story

Dear Michelle, I am so pleased that you were recommended to me. I am feeling so much better since I have been avoiding the foods I am sensitive to and taking the vitamins I have been lacking. Previously I had constant gut pain and bloating but now I am feeling and looking great. Thank you for helping me on my wellness journey.

It was a while ago but I saw you on a couple of occassions to discuss natural ways to favour a boy conception after having had two beautiful daughters. I followed your suggestions and conceived late July last year. I wanted to send you a quick update email to let you know that on 1 April 2011 I gave birth to a healthy baby boy.
Thanks for your assistance. Our family is now completed! Thanks again,

"Michelle's Awesomeness!" When my body started to reflect my anxiety, I sought out Michelle to give me a hand. Originally a bit of a naturopath-skeptic, I have been completely converted.
Michelle's tips (strict instructions) and remedies had me back on track in days. Within two weeks I had all-day energy levels, I slept better, became regular and started to feel like the old me. Read Full Success Story

I have suffered with bloating and cramping for many years and after no success with my doctor I decided to see Michelle. She assessed my symptoms and suggested a program to detoxify my body and "reset" the intestinal tract with a variety of specialised supplements.
Now 8 weeks later I’ve lost 6 kgs and hubby has lost 11 kgs just by eating the same foods as me. I am full of energy and am well on the way to a flat tummy! Read Full Success Story

Michelle assessed my diet, and I no longer have problems with digestion,bloating, sluggishness or feeling fat and frumpy. Not only am I feeling better with more energy, but I have also lost body fat and feel healthier and happier. Michelle used her 6 week detox program and herbs specified to my needs as well identifying which foods I have an intolerance to.
