These days, everybody seems to be talking about getting more protein on their plate. But if you're vegetarian or vegan, how do you up your protein intake? Start by adding chickpeas, lentils, tofu, quinoa, h**p seeds and more to your daily meals. These protein-packed plant foods do more than just fill you up; they help build and repair muscles, support steady energy, balance blood sugar, and keep hormones in check.

Need to make some tweaks to your diet or give it a complete overhaul? I'm here to help you get started.

Feeling flat or mentally drained? Time in nature might be the reset you need. Research shows that even short-term exposure to natural environments — like parks, bush trails, or coastal walks — can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. Being in green spaces lowers cortisol (your stress hormone), improves focus, and supports emotional regulation. Whether you're walking, sitting, or simply observing, nature offers a free and effective way to support mental wellbeing.

Looking for more natural ways to support your emotional wellbeing? Diet, nutrients and personalised herbal medicine can help to balance the body, reducing symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression. Let food, herbs and nature be YOUR natural medicine.

Experiencing perimenopausal symptoms? Here's how having some fruit can help.
🍎 Apples: High in fibre and antioxidants, apples can help stabilise blood sugar and support gut health, which may ease mood swings and bloating.
🥑 Avocado: Packed with healthy fats and magnesium, avocado can support hormone balance and reduce anxiety or sleep disturbances.
🫐 Blueberries: Rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, blueberries may help combat inflammation and support cognitive function.
🍊 Oranges: Loaded with vitamin C and folate, oranges can boost immunity and collagen production, supporting skin and energy levels.
🍓 Strawberries: High in vitamin C and anti-inflammatory compounds, strawberries can help support skin health and reduce joint discomfort.

Magnesium is a powerhouse mineral that plays a key role in energy production, muscle function, and blood sugar regulation. It also supports better sleep and helps manage stress levels. You’ll find magnesium in leafy greens, nuts and seeds, legumes, avocado, whole grains, and dark chocolate. A little daily boost can go a long way for your overall wellbeing!

Vitamin K is essential for blood clotting and bone health.
There are two main types of vitamin K:
Vitamin K1 (phylloquinone): Found in plant foods and,
Vitamin K2 (menaquinone): Found in fermented foods and animal products

These green vegetables pack a vitamin K punch;
✅ Asparagus is a rich source of vitamin K, in fact 1/2 cup of cooked asparagus exceeds the recommended daily intake (RDI) of vitamin K for adults.
✅ Cabbage is a cost-effective veggie to include in meals. Green cabbage is a richer source of vitamin K than red. Cabbage is also rich in magnesium and calcium which supports overall bone and joint health.
✅ Green beans, whilst they add a great crunch to meals, they are slightly lower in vitamin K, than other green veggies. They do however, contain important minerals, such as; calcium, magnesium and manganese, all important for bone formation.
✅ Mustard greens are packed with vitamin K, adding a peppery twist to your plate.
✅ Parsley isn’t just a garnish – it’s a potent source of vitamin K.
✅ Kale is an exceptional source of vitamin K, with one cup of raw kale providing four times the RDI of vitamin K. And pairing kale with healthy fats enhances inutrient absorption.

Keep your heart happy with a little help from fibre. Soluble fibre works its magic by binding to cholesterol in your gut, stopping it from sneaking into your bloodstream. The result? Lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol and a healthier heart.
