Are detox diets really the key to better health or just clever marketing? Lets break it down

What is a detox diet?
Detox diets are short-term eating plans such as a juice cleanse, fasting, restricted eating or detox teas designed to “flush out toxins” and reset your body. They promise glowing skin, weight loss and renewed energy. But what are these toxins? Most detox plans never actually say.

Where’s the science?
Despite their popularity, there’s no scientific evidence that detox diets improve health or help your body eliminate toxins more effectively. Your body already has a powerful detox system with your lungs, kidneys, liver, skin and digestive tract work 24/7 to remove waste and keep you balanced.

What are the risks?
Detox diets can lead to:
Nutrient deficiencies
Fatigue & irritability
Digestive issues
Electrolyte imbalances
Short term weight loss from dehydration

What are some healthier alternatives?
Instead of extreme cleanses, support your body naturally:
Eat whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean protein & whole grains
Stay hydrated
Limit processed food & alcohol
Get enough sleep and move your body
Practice mindful eating and self-care.

Your body doesn’t need to be detoxed it needs to be nourished. Choose sustainable habits over quick fixes.

Start nourishing your body today with real food and sustainable habits. Call today on 6431 8411 or contact us through our website – www.mynutrihealth.org.au – to find out how our expert dietitian can support you.

Hello, Spring!
September is here and it’s the perfect time to refresh your plate and your healthy habits. This month, we’re all about. Light, fresh eating and simple swaps to make you feel your best.

Here are 3 easy swaps to kickstart your spring reset:
Swap white bread for wholemeal/wholegrain bread.
Wholegrain options are rich in fibre and provide longer-lasting energy to fuel your day.

Swap processed meats for lean cuts of protein
Processed meats are often higher in saturated fat and excess sodium. Swapping to a lean cut of protein such as chicken supports muscle growth and overall wellbeing.

Swap added salt for herbs and spices
According to the 2011-12 Australian Health Survey, 60% of Australians exceed the recommended sodium intake from food alone, without counting the salt added during cooking. Using herbs and spices adds flavour while helping reduce your daily salt intake.

Start your spring reset today with one simple swap at a time.

Confused about prebiotics and probiotics? They sound similar and are both essential but play very different roles in keeping your gut happy and healthy.

Probiotics = the good bacteria
These are live microorganisms that are found in foods such as yoghurt, kefir and sauerkraut that help balance your gut microbiome and support digestion, immunity and even mood.

Prebiotics = Food for the good bacteria
These are a type of carbohydrate that contain a specific fibre that the human body cannot digest. These non-digestible fibres’ then act as food for probiotics in the body. Prebiotics are found in foods such as banana, apple, onion, garlic, asparagus, oats and flaxseeds

Have you ever picked up a packaged food at the supermarket and felt lost reading the nutrition panel?

You’re not alone and we’re here to help! See our top tips for reading food labels with a gut health focus.

Fibre
Look for foods with 3g or more of fibre per serve. Ingredients like whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables are great for supporting a happy gut.
Spot added sugars
Added sugars can sneak in with all sorts of different names. The most common ones include:
Glucose
Fructose
Cane sugar
Corn syrup
Malt extract
Check the ingredient list, the closer to the top, the more of it there is.
Watch for artificial sweeteners
Some sugar free products contain artificial sweeteners such as:
Aspartame
Sucralose
Stevia
These can sometimes cause bloating or discomfort in sensitive individuals

Our top tip is to choose whole, minimally processed foods where possible.
