Welcome to my blog, and thank you for stopping by. I hope you find it informative, and if there is anything I have missed or you would like me to talk about please drop me a line of suggestion. After seeing a nutritional therapist I decided from the improvement of my own health that I would like to be there in the same way for others, therefore, I studied two degrees; one in Nutritional Therapy and another in Bioscience Nutrition so that i could be equipped to support a number of health conditions. I now work for a supplement company on a clinical team supporting practitioners and keeping upto date with all new scientific information and provide private consultations too aswel as keeping my blog going :)

Tips to follow with a busy life

Life can be busy and rushed, therefore make life simple for yourself so get yourself into a  routine of following the below top five tips:


  1.  Make a juice with vegetables that you have in your fridge, such as carrots, beetroot, celery and green vegetables to encourage a healthy antioxidant level for healthy skin, immune system and detoxification of nasties from your body.  Do this on your Sunday evening and freeze the juice in portions so that you a juice for each morning.
  2.       Eat every 3-4 hours to stabilise your energy and encourage a good metabolism for weight management, this doesn’t mean eating big meals as they will make you sleepy. Have snacks the size of your two fists put together as this is roughly your stomachs size. Leaving long gaps between eating can really knock the metabolism causing excess weight gain and make you feel sluggish.  Keep snacks in your handbag such as a bag of mixed plain nuts and seeds to graze on throughout the day to support energy and healthy hormonal levels.




    3.Have a glass of water with fresh lemon before each meal to encourage stomach acid to
       breakdown food to encourage absorption of nutrients into your system and a flat tummy.

    4. Keep those blood sugar levels balanced to prevent blood sugar dips that can cause a crash in energy. A
        simple way to manage this is by taking chromium after a meal to balance the glucose tolerance factor
        and having protein rich foods (meat, fish eggs,beans, legumes) with everything you eat and keeping
       snacks in your handbag such as a bag of mixed plain nuts and seeds to graze on throughout the day to
       support energy and healthy hormonal levels.


    5.Take a high strength multinutrient first thing in the morning to give you a good start to do the day.
        Although this is not the solution to a good diet it is a nice bit of support to give you some basics when
       you are on the move.
