"I love to share peoples journey in finding out about their own bodies and health. It’s incredible to see people clear up symptoms they had been noticing for ages and sometimes even better when other symptoms that they hadn’t even realised were symptoms start to disappear too. My goal is always help answer those questions you have about your own health, get to the root cause of what’s going on inside your body and return you to full health." - Peter Dugmore
PETE’S FAVOURITES
For Skin Health
Magnesium is used as a cofactor in the formation and repair of collagen. You can have access to all the collagen you need but if you don’t have magnesium you won’t repair and regenerate your skin. It has also been shown to help balance oil levels and is important for aiding in the hydration of your skin cells.
For Hormone Balance
Magnesium is used in the production and balancing of the all of the steroid hormones including DHEA, Testosterone, Progesterone, and Oestrogen. It is also vital for the formation of the thyroid hormones leading to optimal thyroid function. You must to have healthy magnesium levels to have balanced hormones.
For Stress
Magnesium’s role in easing stress levels is possibly the most important role it plays for us today. It helps to breakdown cortisol (the main stress hormone), limits it’s production, blocks the uptake of cortisol by the brain, improves sleep, and calms the brain by blocking the binding of a stimulating neurotransmitter (Glutamate) to NDMA receptors. Because of all of these functions; stress significantly depletes magnesium because it is used in such large quantities to try and help the body ‘destress’ itself.

For Skin Health
Our skin is a reflection of our overall health. If you don’t have perfect skin this means that the body is not balanced. There is no greater organ (or set of organs) that influence our skin health than the digestive system. Not only does optimal digestion and absorption of nutrients from these organs nourish our bodies but 70% of the immune system resides in the digestive tract. This has a direct effect on the microbes our bodies will allow to live on our skin. Imbalanced microbes in our digestive system means imbalanced microbes on our skin. Rosacea, dermatitis, psoriasis etc all have a component to them (if not solely) down to an imbalance in our skin biome. GI Max Pro supports every aspect of digestive function and is the best ‘off the shelf’ digestive support that we can find.
For Hormone Health
Most people don’t realise that hormones are degraded, converted, and detoxified in the liver. Once leaving the liver these components enter the digestive system through bile and are excreted from the body. When the digestive system is not healthy many of these components are reabsorbed or not effectively eliminated. On top of this our microbiome plays a re key part in balancing our hormones and we need to support the microbiome for optimal health, not just hormones.
For Stress
We are all primed to think that stress is emotional and schedule related but in truth everything our body does is a form of stress. One of the most stressful things our bodies have to do is properly digest, absorb and convert nutrients for optimal function. By supporting healthy digestive function we can significantly lower our overall stress levels and support a healthy stress response. Are you someone that has ever eaten a large meal late at night and then not slept well. This is because as we said; digestion is stressful and the stress of digestion will lead to a night full of tossing, turning, over thinking, and probably sweating.

After years of health problems, in and out of hospital, hitting a brick wall, resetting and never getting to the root cause, I have finally started to feel myself again. Thanks to both Pete and Alice, whom I trust wholeheartedly, I've not only strengthened physically but I've grown more knowledgeable in overall health and how to tap into my intuition. I feel better everyday and with a deeper understanding of myself and needs. Their kindness, warmth and genuine investment into others' wellbeing, is like non other.
I cannot recommend kyushi more and these two wonderful souls.
