With the changing colours of autumn, let's give our health a boost!
🍂 Starting the day with a high protein, high fibre breakfast gives focus & energy & helps blood sugar control.
🍂 In cooler weather, it can be harder to drink water. Try herbal teas as an alternative to keep hydrated. Hydration supports digestion, hormonal balance, detoxification, skin health, & focus.
🍂 Autumn is a beautiful time of year for a stomp in the woods or a walk on a deserted beach! Helpful for stress, lower cortisol levels, sleep support, aid bone health, balance blood sugar.
🍂 Supplementing with vitamin D is a national guideline from October to March. With less sunshine our body can't make it. Vitamin D has so many benefits so it's important we don't become deficient. Supports mood, strong immune health (important at this time of year), reduces inflammation in the gut, needed for calcium uptake so needed for bone health. Again particularly important for women in midlife.
🍂 Eating seasonally, fruit & vegetable provide the most nutrition. Think warm autumn salads with roasted sweet potato, butternut squash soup, leeks, green leafy veg like kale which has a positive effect on our hormones.
