Eating well

naturalhealthconsciouslivingLeave a comment

Give you body what it needs, and it will thrive – right? Sometimes great nutrition is simply not enough. A variety of things can happen during the growing, harvesting, storage + preparing of food that can affect its nutritional content. Our soils simply are not fertile, rich in the nutrients we need for optimal health. Many plant crops are produced with the aid of fertilised soils. Most fruits and vegetables are sprayed with toxic chemicals, (namely pesticides) which contaminate and leave residues on our produce.

Daily Wellness Lifestyle Habits

Our top tips for eating right:

Eat an abundant variety of local, whole, seasonal, fresh foods. Include nuts, seeds, non-gluten whole grains, sprouted legumes, herbs, and spices (turmeric is renown for its healing properties).

Decrease sugar intake, saturated fats, caffeine, alcohol and processed foods.

Eat fruit + vegetables with their skin on, where possible. Obviously, this is not going to work with an avo – use your discernment! The skin can truly increase your nutrient intake, including fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

Some vitamins dissolve in water, so you lose your vitamins to the cooking water if you prefer to boil your vegetables (a potato can cause much of the B + C vitamins to migrate into the boiling water). Try grilling, roasting, steaming + sautéing where possible. If you must boil, save the water – add other ingredients and make a veggie stock.

Use the outer leaves of vegetables like beets etc – unless they are wilted or unpalatable. Sauté with evoo, garlic, onion + pine nuts for a nutritious side of greens.

Start your day with a plant based, green smoothie to kick start your metabolism + pack in the nutrients straight up.
