Secrets of the Aussie body

Saimma Miller has been a naturopath for over 10 years and has recently released a book titled ‘The Aussie Body Diet & Detox Plan’. It’s based around the simple things that we Aussie’s value the most – work-life balance, the great outdoors and fresh produce.

“I always ask my clients what they want.  I find it really interesting that people tend to want the same things  – to look and feel better, to have more energy, to lose weight, to feel more calm and happy.  Basically we want to find out how to be our best”, says Miller.

A few of the secrets to success include: drinking lots of water, positive thinking and wholesome foods.
