ASIAN STYLE SALMON WITH RICE & VEG

A very easy and simple dinner idea to eat salmon (or any other white fish will work too) with different flavours.

Ingredients for the marinade:
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp of soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon of grated ginger
- 1 tbsp of lemon juice
- 1 tap garlic powder or granules or fresh garlic

Let the fish marinade for at least 15 minutes (the longe the more flavour it will absorb) and then cook in the oven for 12 minutes.

I served it with some brown rice and broccolini but any veg will do too!

Let me know if you will try this recipe 🤗

And just like that the quickest month has gone 😢

We had the most beautiful time eating (and drinking) our way though Italy 🍝🍷

Did I eat healthy while travelling? No. Do I regret it? Absolutely not!

Life is too short to stress about food! I enjoyed the local products (and wines), I listened to my stomach and stopped eating when full but I enjoyed pasta, pizza, focaccia and gelato on a daily basis 🤗

Now that I am back home, I am (depressed ahah) but also excited to get back into my routine, eat good foods and get back into exercise (I really missed my yoga and pilates).

No crazy diets needed after the holidays 🙏🏻

I would love to hear what you would like to see more on the page, so that I can create the content you need: recipes, recipes reels, infographics, supermarket reels etc... Comment below please 🤗🤗

I will still pop in on my stories with pictures of my Italian summer & delicious food!

Dark chocolate is loaded with nutrients that can positively affect your health.

1. it contains good amounts of iron, magnesium, copper, manganese, zinc & selenium

2. Dark chocolate is loaded with organic compounds that are biologically active and function as antioxidants.

3. The flavanols in dark chocolate can stimulate the endothelium, the lining of arteries, to produce nitric oxide (NO). One of the functions of NO is to send signals to the arteries to relax, which lowers the resistance to blood flow and therefore reduces blood pressure.

4. Cocoa contains stimulant substances like caffeine and theobromine, which may be a key reason why it can improve brain function.

YOU CAN & YOU SHOULD EAT CARBS AT NIGHT 🍝

One of the biggest myths I hear about carbs at night is that they will turn into fat as you get less time to "burn" them.

Your body doesn't care if you eat carbs at 6 am or 6pm, it will only register your overall energy balance for the day. You will only store food as fat if you are in a calorie surplus.

In fact, consuming carbs at night can actually reduce stress while helping you build muscle and lose fat. Also, most of the times, when you avoid carbs in a meal, you will 90% of times end up craving sugar 1hr later.

This does not give you the license of eating pizza everyday, but I would definitely encourage you to have some form of whole grains or potatoes with your evening meal.

Hope to help you clear the confusion ❤️

Thinking of doing DRY JULY this year? Mine is staring a little earlier this year.

If you're giving up alcohol for a month and are wondering what the benefits will be:

1.BETTER SLEEP: When you drink, you typically fall straight into a deep sleep, missing the important rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. There are many benefits of better sleep. You will be more productive, where you can learn and problem solve better.

2. MORE HYDRATED: When you drink alcohol, you lose around four times as much liquid as what you actually drank.
Dehydration can cause headaches. Salt and potassium levels also reduce, which can impact nerve and proper muscle function while also causing headaches, fatigue and nausea.

3. BETTER SKIN: Giving up alcohol will have a positive impact on your skin due to you having better levels of hydration. As more water will have been absorbed rather than wasted, you are likely to have more hydrated-looking skin, as well as reduced dandruff and eczema.

MAGICAL MAGNESIUM

Such an important mineral to get in our diet.

Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymes reactions in the human body 🙀

01/06/2022

It's the 1st of a new month 😊

So, here is another meal plan example with new ideas for breakfast, snacks, lunch & dinner (or just dinners really, as lunches are 90% of the time made of leftovers), using fruit and vegetables in season in June!

Save this post and let me know if you try one of these ideas 😍

Happy eating!

Health benefits of good sleep?

So many!

1. can improve concentration and productivity, and reduce brain fog;

2. improves performance in the gym;

3. improve heart health

4. affects sugar metabolism and reduce risk of type 2 diabetes;

5. improves mental health (poor sleep is linked to depression!)

6. supports healthy immune system

7. helps maintain or lose weight (yes, many studies have associated poor sleep with weight gain).

How many hours of sleep do you get per night?
