My Name is Natasha Zuvela, founder of Shine Health & Wellness. I have always loved health, fitness and sport, channelling my passion early to become a two times Australian Aerobics Champion at 15 and 16, Figure Fitness champion at 18, and going on to become a Personal Trainer.

But I had no idea how my life was going to be turned upside down and send me on an adventure of a lifetime to scour the globe for revolutionary health and wellness technology to save my children.

My daughter Jasmine at 10 months started showing signs of distress with behavioural challenges and extreme eczema. This was the beginning of our journey to discover gut health and brain connection, heavy metals, navigating neuro-diversity as well as food intolerances. We worked with some of the best doctors and specialists in Australia, USA and Europe to help calm her eczema and emotional rollercoasters.

My son Beau had similar yet different challenges. His micro-biome was also massively deficient and he was a petrie dish of ADD/ ADHD causing bacteria and parasites. We nearly lost him twice through food intolerance induced asthma attacks.

We have tried every gut healing detox and nutritional program to help our kids to find a calm and happy space, as well as clear our their gut from parasites and bad bacteria (not to mention giving my husband and I some much needed sanity!)

Brain scans of both our kids in some of the most cutting-edge clinics in Scandinavia showed us the neuro-diverse activity and emotional storms in full colour. We also uncovered Irlen Syndrome in both of our kids, which makes the uptake of information and written communication for them very challenging.

Over a period of 12 extremely challenging years and over half a million dollars later, we started solving the complex puzzle of microbiome, immune system, diet, emotions, and stabilising neuro-diversity through some amazing health and wellness technology, life changing supplements, as well as nurturing daily health routines and diet.

Through this roller coaster journey of life of leaving no stone unturned to help my children get better, so they just be able to play freely and enjoy life like any other kid, I my reignited passion for health and wellness.

As challenging as it has been, I have found great joy in helping my children and others with what I have learnt and the amazing tools I have at my disposal. This is how Shine Health and Wellness was born - out of great adversity and an international health discovery working with some of the brightest minds in alternative health and main stream medicine.

I hope to help as many families and children as I can to provide some relief to what health challenges they may be going through.
