Clover Ferments Review
CLOVER FERMENTS TONIC REVIEW
30 / NOVEMBER / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
Earlier this year I felt like something was really off in my gut, I was tired often and my digestion had started to become *weird* - aka bloating, bowel movements were changing, and much to my poor partner's ears (and nose) I was very gassy!
So, I did what any functional nutritionist would do, and I completed a functional medicine stool test on myself - known as a complete microbiome mapping.
THE RESULTS
The results really didn’t surprise me considering how I was feeling, but essentially what it came back with was what’s termed dysbiosis - an imbalance of good and bad bugs in the gut - more bad than good.
It turns out I not only had too much bad bacteria, and a fungal overgrowth, but a parasite too, just to make things interesting I suppose haha! But one thing that I will mention that is often overlooked, is the other thing the test clearly showed…
I had far too few good bugs, which was only making the dysbiosis worse.
So I set myself up on a protocol once I was back from my holiday to dive head first into a 12 week reset (you can find the exact protocol I used here). I took myself through a number of dietary changes, added in supplements and enhanced my detoxification pathways before embarking on a parasite cleanse (which I am finishing up at the moment… also included in the protocol mentioned above).
But whilst I was doing all the cleansing, I had to do something about the rebuilding, because if I just emptied the bad bugs from their home, and left it empty, they would very easily find their way back and take up host again… hence the good bugs needed to be added!
Enter @cloverferments … They happened to see I was on my journey and kindly gifted me their tonics to try for 4 weeks to help me in my healing!
HOW I REBUILT MY GUT MICROBIOME
When it comes to rebuilding gut health after dysbiosis, the most important thing to start with is adding in a probiotic, which fortunately @cloverferments tonics are packed full of, as well as digestive enzymes, which was a perfect addition to my protocol.
One thing I will add in here, which I found to be AMAZING, is that Clover Ferments are low histamine (a topic for a whole other blog), but as someone who like many with gut issues, is somewhat histamine intolerance, it had my mind at ease that I wouldn’t be boosting histamine levels like other fermented foods would.
In fact I took a break from all other fermented foods during my healing for this reason.
I am still currently taking the tonics as I loved the taste and how they supported my gut health alongside the protocol I was following. I started noticing my bowels becoming more regular again, digestion improved, bloating eased (still working on this, but it’s a process) and the eczema on my head that had flared up as a result of the fungal overgrowth started to subside
I know the journey is not a short one when it comes to repairing your gut health which is why I am going to keep the tonics in place for the foreseeable future. I loved how easy it was to drink, the fact I could combine all 3 (I often struggle to remember to take things multiple times a day), and the beetroot flavour was definitely my favourite!! (just watch the splatter haha)
If you’d like to give these tonics a try for yourself, they have kindly given me a discount code for you to use, just pop in ‘SHEREE10’ at checkout.
The tonics are also known to support a reduction in food sensitivities and intolerances which is something else I have struggled with due to my coeliac disease, and I have just last week sent a test off to see if there are any improvements in those as a result of the tonics and protocol! So watch this space!
If you have any questions about the tonics check out the Clover Ferments website here, or DM them on @cloverferments on Instagram. If you have any questions for me about anything I have mentioned also don’t hesitate to reach out here too!

Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Yields: 2 servings
This dinner is super family friendly, as well as being super friendly for your gut! By now I imagine you’ve heard all the benefits of bone broth (if you haven’t I have a blog here for you).
Adding bone broth into a meal not only elevates the taste, but the health of your gut due to the boost of collagen and essential amino acids to help the healing and repairing of your gut!
This recipe was taken directly from my 4 Week Gut Reset Recipe Book, if you want to check out more recipes and ways to reset and support your gut health check it out here!
In the meantime, give this recipe a try!
INGREDIENTS
- 250g sirloin/eye fillet steak
- 100g button mushrooms, sliced
- ¼ cup coconut cream
- 1 clove of garlic, mashed
- 150g potatoes
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- ¼ cup bone broth, (as needed) - you can use 1 tbsp. of powdered bone broth or paste if you prefer
- salt + pepper to taste
METHOD
- Place potatoes and ½ tbsp. salt in a large saucepan, add water to cover by 2cm, and bring to boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes are tender and a paring knife can be easily slipped in and out of potatoes, 18 to 22 minutes.
- Whilst the potatoes are cooking, in a large frying pan on medium heat, add olive oil and garlic, bring to a simmer before adding the steak
- Allow the steak to cook for about 5-8 minutes each side, depending how rare you like it, before removing it from the pan and setting aside to rest.
- Add the mushrooms to the pan and keep on medium heat, browning the mushrooms, before adding the coconut cream and stirring through for no more than one minute.
- Remove from the heat and pour over the steak.
- Drain potatoes and return them to the saucepan.
- Cook over low heat, stirring, until potatoes are thoroughly dried, about 30 seconds.
- Remove from heat and, using potato masher, mash potatoes until smooth and no lumps remain. Stir in bone broth, oil, and salt to taste.
*N.B. You can use the second serve of the recipe to have for leftovers the next day

Fermented foods are becoming so popular with all the hype around how much it can support gut health, and there is definitely a beautiful place for them, however I often find people use them far before their tummies are ready.
With my clients, I often suggest we pause on the fermented foods first and focus on rebuilding and repairing before adding them in. Fermented foods are amazing prebiotics, and kefir is no exception. I have also found it is something myself and my clients tolerate far better early on (and from then on) in our journey’s than other fermented foods which is why I love @thewildfermentary kefir!!
I love having this once or twice a week as a drink (in a wine glass, because why not), but with my new obsession with gummies, I thought it would be awesome to try to make some. That way we combine the repairing with the prebiotics and let me tell you it was a great success!
Be sure to use my discount code: ‘SHEREE10’ if you want 10% off The Wild Fermentary Kefir!
Side note: the gelatin is amazing to support gut health and repair gut lining, so these gummies are a win win! Check out the recipe below :)
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup kefir (I used @thewildfermentary)
- 4 Tbsp. gelatin (I used the nutraorganics natural grassfed unflavoured)
- 3 Tbsp. stevia (you can use honey instead, I was just keeping the sugar way down)
METHOD
1. Add the kefir to small - medium saucepan
2. Sprinkle the gelatin over the juice (try spread it out evenly), and let it sit for a few minutes, this allows the gelatin to ‘bloom’
**You will notice a wrinkled look forming on the surface as the liquid absorbs the gelatin
3. Stir the mixture together
4. Put on a low-medium heat and stir gently until the gelatin has dissolved for around 5 minutes
5. In the last minute or so add the stevia (or honey) and make sure this is well mixed through
6. Remove from heat and pour into silicone moulds (I got mine from @littlegiantsstore and found using a tear dropper helped massively too. Alternatively you can use a container as long as it lifts out easily.
7. Pop in the fridge for 2+ hours for it to set
8. Remove from moulds or cut them up (if in a container) and keep refrigerated for up to 14 days. Enjoy!

Snickers is probably my FAVOURITE chocolate bar, the texture, the taste, the chocolate, caramel, the peanuts, it literally makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
However, as a nutritionist, it has been a while since I have had one, not because I am deprived, but purely because I know that the sugar content alone is not something that serves me, my gut or my hormones on a regular basis!
So… I came up with this smoothie to help replicate the taste to some degree, and so far it has had rave reviews! It’s perfect for breakfast, a snack or even post workout! If you’re a Snickers fan like me, I hope you’ll give it a try!
INGREDIENTS
2 – 3 Dates
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
1 tbsp. peanut butter
¼ cup oats (or quinoa flakes for gluten free)
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
METHOD
Blend all ingredients together in a smoothie and enjoy!

When it comes to having healthy hormones, having healthy fats in our diets make a huge difference! A lot of dressings that you’ll find in grocery stores are loaded with oils that will cause inflammation in your body and wreak havoc on your hormones (say goodbye to canola oil and sunflower oil please).
Instead you want to add oils that are NOT going to contribute to inflammation and actually can have anti-inflammatory properties, which is why in this dressing recipe you’ll find olive oil instead.
Do your hormones a favour and don’t miss out on flavour with this tasty dressing recipe!
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tbsp. dijon mustard
- ½ cup olive oil, extra virgin
- 2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- 3 tbsp. honey
- Pinch of kelp salt (or sea salt)
METHOD
- Blend in a food processor for 20 - 30 seconds, or shake vigorously until well mixed. Store in the fridge for up to one month.
** Drizzle ~1 tbsp. over your favourite salad or meal for some extra flavour

Why You Need To Be Pooping Daily For Weight Loss
WHY YOU NEED TO BE POOPING DAILY FOR WEIGHT LOSS
22 / JUNE / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
LISTEN UP… 📣 If you are not pooping 💩 daily, it’s time to sound the alarm bells 🚨🚨🚨
Particularly if you want to shift weight, support your hormones or just be healthy in general. 😅
WHY DAILY BOWEL MOVEMENTS ARE SO IMPORTANT
One of the biggest issues I hear about from clients is irregular bowel movements, specifically constipation.
Now, I know this isn’t fun to talk about or admit, but if you let this fester over time it can cause havoc in your body. 😱🥺
Think about it this way, your bowel movements 💩 are one of the ways your body eliminates toxins ❌- TOXINS (aka a substance that is harmful to your body)
If you aren’t eliminating these toxins through your bowel movements 💩 at least once a day you are essentially just letting them sit there ready to be reabsorbed. 😵
I like to think about it as a bus 🚌 (stool) travelling down a road (your intestine) with a bunch of passengers 👩🏼🤝👨🏾 inside (the toxins)... If the bus is moving at a steady pace those passengers are going to get to their destination on time 🙌🏽🥳, however if the bus is stopped the passengers are able to get off the bus and go for a wander 😱👩🏼🤝👨🏾
Passengers don’t jump out of a moving bus, and we don’t want your toxins going on a walkabout back into your bloodstream only to be stored in your body again. 🙅🏼♀️🙅🏼♀️
Because when this happens, they wind up in a fat cell and become hard to move (therefore the body fat becomes hard to move)🤦🏼♀️
TIPS ON SUPPORTING MOTILITY
Is all of this making sense so far? 🙌🏽🥰
Your motility (bowels moving daily) is KEY 🔑 to your toxin excretion 👌🏽
So how do you support your motility?
- Make sure you are drinking plenty of water (at least 2L per day) 💦
- Eat a variety leafy green vegetables 🥬 - these should be in at least 2 of your main meals
- Add some nourishing carbohydrates like sweet potato, potato🥔pumpkin or rice to your main meals to help bind the stool together so they are much easier to pass ✨
If you want further support with this, check out my 4 Week Gut Reset here! 🥳🥳🥳 I teach you step by step how to detox your body and get your bowels moving regularly?

I LOVE PASTA!! But what I don’t love is how heavy I used to feel after eating it! It turns out after some extensive testing, not only am I coeliac, but actually intolerant to rice, so it makes finding pasta pretty tricky without getting a massive bloat or reaction afterwards.
This is why I fell in love with zoodles, so quick, easy and best of all, they don’t bloat me! I know a lot of other women struggle with digesting grains too which is why I thought I’d share this recipe from my signature 12-week program Reclaim Your Radiance with you!
If pasta doesn’t get you bloated, try a gluten free variety mixed in with the zoodles if you like!
INGREDIENTS
- 100g chicken breast
- 2 heaped tbsp. basil pesto
- 2 large spiralised zucchini
- 1 cup baby spinach
- ½ cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- ½ tsp. basil
- ½ tsp. oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
METHOD
- Cook pasta as per instructions on the back of the packet (if using zoodles, wait to add them till the end)
- Cook chicken in seasonings on a medium heat in a fry pan for 5 – 10 minutes, until it starts to brown.
- Add baby spinach and mushrooms with olive oil and sauté for 2 – 3 minutes.
- Mix in the basil pesto and zoodles or pasta for 2 minutes before serving.
** Vegetarian Alternative: 70g Sunfed Chicken Free Chicken

How To Cure IBS For Good
HOW TO CURE IBS FOR GOOD
11 / MAY / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
First things first, you need to understand that IBS is a pretty crappy diagnosis, I mean, it literally stands for irritable bowel syndrome. And I dunno about you, but I want to know WHY on earth my bowel is irritated!
Understanding what is actually happening underneath the surface level diagnosis that is ‘IBS’, or what I like to call, the IBS Iceberg can be hard and is often why the ‘solution’ is to just follow a low FODMAP diet (and that’s it).
As a holistic + clinical nutritionist this is not a long-term ‘solution’ that I am happy to put my clients on. In fact, it isn’t really a solution at all.
Yes low FODMAPs can be super helpful, but it is even in the research that this isn’t a long-term fix. It might reduce the symptoms, but again we want to get to the root of the cause and in my expert opinion and first hand experience, I can tell you that it is normally one of these three things that lie below the surface of the IBS Iceberg:
3 ROOT CAUSES OF IBS
1. Leaky Gut
Leaky gut is another way of saying your intestine (gut) is permeable (has ‘gaps’) in it. This allows for particles of food and other toxins to seep through into your bloodstream (where it isn’t meant to be).
So the body freaks out, thinks there is an invader present and puts the entire system in a state of inflammation… hello food intolerances and irregular bowel movements.
These symptoms sound familiar?
2. SIBO
Short for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, now you may be wondering what on earth that means, especially because we are meant to have bacteria in our gut right?
YES!
But not in our small intestine… You see, that is where all the absorption and digestion goes on, so the majority of our bacteria should be living in our large intestine. When it grows up searching for food and starts to overpopulate in the small intestine we start to see issues like chronic bloating, diarrhoea, smelly gas, burping and fatigue to name a few!
Not fun right, and can be kind of embarrassing at times
3. Dysbiosis
Now dysbiosis simply put, means there is an imbalance of good bacteria to bad bacteria in the gut. We are always going to have some bad guys, but the ratio needs to be heavily in favour of the good ones!
Often clients come to me concerned that there is something living in their gut that shouldn’t be, and whilst this is true for some cases, the bigger issue is actually the lack of good gut bacteria.
If we don’t have enough good guys, we reduce our defence in fighting off the bad guys! And then we have a bunch of space for the bad guys to invade.
I think you’d agree, we really don’t want a hostile situation in our guts! So this balance needs to be restored!
HEAL TO HEAL IBS FOR GOOD
These are the three main issues I see underneath the IBS ice-berg!
Which is why the diagnosis IBS is not really supporting you in having a healthy gut right! We really have to support the good bacteria that are living inside of us!
The great news is, that it doesn’t have to take extensive testing and supplementation to reset your gut health and start to really nourish those beautiful bugs that help us thrive!
The key thing to understand when it comes to healing your gut (or curing IBS for good), is that it isn’t a short-term solution. You are going to need to make changes to your diet and lifestyle, and some of those shifts may need to become more permanent to keep you healthy, others will only need to be around temporarily whilst the healing occurs.
What you need to give yourself is time, on average it takes at least 12 weeks for the gut to do the deeper healing work, but you don’t have to wait that long to see results!
One of my clients saw a reduction in bloating after 4 days, another got her energy back and anxiety reduced in just 4 weeks!
These are women just like you who didn’t accept a BS diagnosis, and wanted real change and answers about their body and health! And I truly feel confident that when you apply what you learn inside the 4 Week Gut Reset, you can have the same results!
Sound good? Click here to save your spot! I cannot wait to support you!
