The foundation of all form and function in our body comes from what we eat. Rubbish in equals rubbish out. If we want a healthy body we need to give our body the nutrients it needs to build a healthy body.

We get to make this choice three times a day, every single day of our lives.

The great news is that it's never too late to make new choices. Our bodies create billions of new cells every day so new healthy habits can make a big difference no matter your age!

We really are what we eat!

Have you ever felt that you've done so much work on your health but never quite get rid of an issue?? Or it keeps coming back??
That's because, whether we are aware of it or not, there are always energetic components to our health conditions. It could be a trauma, a build-up of stress or something you don't even remember that is contributing to your ill-health.
By addressing the physical body together with the energetic issues it is possible to heal fully.

WHAT ARE MACROS???

You may have heard a lot about Macros but aren't actually sure what they are. Here's a quick breakdown for you.

Macronutrients (Macros) are the 3 main categories that foods are broken into. Of course, most foods contain 2 or 3 different macros but are categorised by the macro that makes up the major proportion of the food.

The 3 categories are Carbohydrates (Carbs), Protein & Fats. Each of these have different roles in the body.

Carbs: Carbs are our quick burning fuel. They are broken down quickly into fuel for the body and are also used quickly. Some is stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles for quick fuel later on and then any excess is stored as fat - that's why we don't want to eat too many starchy carbs! Carbs come from fruit & vegetables (the best kind of carbs) as well as grains, legumes and sweeteners. We want to be eating mainly whole fruits & vegetables as our carbs as the fibre helps to slow the impact of the carbs on our blood sugar and also provides great food for our healthy gut bugs.

Proteins: Proteins are broken down into amino acids and are used as building blocks for muscles, neurotransmitters & hormones. Proteins are also a great source of long-lasting fuel which will help you stay full and energetic for longer. There are some amino acids that are essential - this means our body can't make these and we need to get them from our food. Animal foods are complete protein sources which provide the whole range of amino acids in a very bioavailable form unlike plant sources which only provide some amino acids and are harder for our body to utilise.

Fats: Fats are a great source of long-lasting fuel as well as providing the building blocks for cell membranes & hormones. There are 3 types of fat - monounsaturated, polyunsaturated and saturated - our body needs a variety of each of these fats in proportion for proper healthy and function. Choose fats with as little processing as possible (think avocado, fat from meats, nuts & seeds) and avoid highly processed seeds oils where possible - these create huge amounts of inflammation in the body. Mostly importantly - fat also makes our food taste great!

So, make sure you choose a variety of foods, with as little processing as possible. Everyone is different but a great place to start would be approximately:

40% carbs - from mostly non-starchy veggies & fruit
30% protein
30% fat

If it's bothering you it's not ok!

I've been told the same things with my health in the past. So many health professionals tell us that "it's normal" or "you'll just have to get used to it/live with it". This is not OK and more often than not it is not true!

Most symptoms can be resolved or at the very least reduced by supporting your whole being - body, mind & soul. Sometimes it's a tiny tweak in something that can make all the difference. You don't need to suffer in silence!

That's where holistic health comes in, we look at the whole person to find out what is going on so we can address the root cause of the issue, not just use a bandaid medication or treatment.

Drop a 😭 below if you've been given a bandaid treatment with no real solution to your issues!

My ingredients for a healthy body:
🥦Real, whole food - our body makes new cells every single day. These cells are made from nutrients from what we eat.
🥦Hydration - every process in our body relies on water. We need to drink plenty of good quality water - aim for about 2 litres per day.
🥦Stress reduction - stress is a contributing factor to most preventable diseases. Learning to minimise or cope with the mental & emotional stress in our lives is vital.
🥦Movement - moving improves every aspect of our life - both physical, mental & spiritual. Make sure you include some movement every day, even if it's just a short walk to start with.
🥦Sleep - our bodies need sleep to heal and rejuvenate. Prioritise 7-8hrs sleep per night.
🥦Reduce toxins where you can to reduce stress on your body - this includes the environment around us, what we put in and on our body and also what we consume (what we read & watch & who we spend our time with)

Every little positive change you make in any of these areas will improve your health & wellbeing!

💨Is Bloating Blowing up your Day??💨

While there are many reasons you may be bloated here are some simple tips that will help to reduce bloating.

1. Always sit down to eat.
Your body needs to be in a Parasympathetic or "Rest & Digest" state to digest your food. If you are eating on the run or standing at the kitchen bench your body will not digest your food. It will end up fermenting in your stomach and contribute to bloating. So, take some time out to sit down to eat!

2. Chew your food.
Again, we often rush our meals and gulp food down without chewing properly. If you don't chew your food properly (30 chews per mouthful or until it is a soup-like consistency) your poor stomach will have a terrible time trying to break it down and absorb those nutrients.

3. Limit fluids with your meals.
If you drink a lot of fluid with a meal it dilutes your digestive juices so they don't work as effectively. Ensure you are drinking most of your water/fluids throughout the day away from your meals.

These 3 simple tips can make a huge difference to bloating and assist your body to absorb the nutrients in your food.

I'd love to know if this helps, drop a comment below and let me know how you feel after trying these tips. 😀

🥱🥱Do you wake up tired and reach for the coffee?🥱🥱

Did you know this could be doing you more harm than good???😱

When your body (and in particular your adrenal glands) is under stress, jumping out of bed and grabbing a coffee on an empty stomach is like giving your adrenal glands a kick in the guts!

This leads to an energy crash later in the day and actually makes you even more tired in the long run! If you have your coffee after food it slows the absorption of the caffeine and creates less stress on your body.

So.....food first, coffee second!!☕️

Having a hearty breakfast gets your day started on the right foot.

By eating a breakfast with a combination of proteins, healthy fats & carbohydrates you will have energy to last until lunchtime without the energy crash or sugar cravings.

Give it a try and see how much more energy you have.

You might not even need that coffee at smoko time!!
