🤷🏻‍♀️Why are people still glorifying low-calorie junk, over real food? 😤

It drives me mad that a 60 calorie yoghurt filled with artificial sweeteners, thickeners, and a paragraph of chemicals gets labelled as “healthy”… but a boiled egg or a handful of nuts? “Too many calories.”

No. Just no.

Calories are a consideration BUT so are the quality of those calories! Your body is built from what you eat, not from a number on the back of a packet.

Stop picking products because they’re low in calories and start choosing them because they actually nourish you.

🙌🏼Count ingredients, not just numbers.🙌🏼

💛Mayo Swap💛

Hunter & Gather mayo is made with only FOUR simple, high-quality ingredients:

🥑 100% avocado oil
🥚 Free range egg yolk
🍎 Apple cider vinegar
🧂 Pink Himalayan salt

Oh and the taste…👌🏼.

Yes, it’s pricier, but the quality of ingredients are superior!

💛The Ultimate wrap swap💛

Why does a wrap need 15+ ingredients?! 😳

Yes, the ones on the left are cheaper, but at what cost if the majority of the ingredients aren’t actual foods…

Great swap for the school holidays.

“When I say I’ll start Monday… but it’s been 42 Mondays.”
If that hit a bit too close to home, here’s your sign. 👀

A bit of tough love here: if you keep putting it off, nothing changes.

But the good news? You don’t have to overhaul your whole life to feel better. 💥

The Basic Course (on demand and LIVE!) is £10 off in our flash sale - it’s made for busy lives and messy seasons like the summer holidays. ☀️

Healthy habits might feel impossible right now, but with the right info and support, it can be so simple, no overwhelm, no fads.

Do it in your own time. When the kids are in bed. In the car. With your headphones in while folding laundry.

Because health waits for nobody… and the time is now. 💛

Comment ‘NOW’ and I’ll send you the link to the discounted course! 🙌🏼

Two years ago, I set up this page with the aim to spread my knowledge and passion for nutrition and “see what happens.” I could never have imagined how much would unfold.

By far one of the best decisions I’ve ever made and grateful beyond belief. Here’s my top five moments over the past two years (it was hard to pick!)

1. Meeting Johnny Wilkinson at a PR event and this year becoming the official nutritionist for their health shot range (a real pinch-me moment.)

2. Being invited to Oner Active’s event with owner Krissy Cela and becoming part of the incredible Project Power by KC team, writing nutrition guides to help young teenage girls improve their health

3. Launching my very own subscription service – a one-stop shop for long-term health. A space for those wanting sustainability, accountability, inspiration, recipes… the full works. A true labour of love (and a tonne of tears & tantrums in the process 😂).

4. Supporting thousands of people through courses, 1:1 food plans, and workplace wellness days. I’ll never take for granted the trust you’ve placed in me.

5. Building a community with some of the most supportive, uplifting, positive people online. Truly – none of this would be possible without you 🙌🏼.

Thank you for being here. For every like, message, share, course signup, and recommendation to a friend. You’ve made The Basic Nutritionist what it is/ I am 💛.

So let’s celebrate this milestone together. Look out for my next post and let’s raise a toast (of kombucha) to the last two years, and everything still to come 💛.

Big love always,

💛🙌🏼Non-ultra processed convenience foods, Aldi edition🙌🏼💛.

Ok, this was the hardest challenge yet! Unfortunately, there was a huge lack of non-ultra processed foods at this store!

Impressed with their minimal ingredient ciabatta bread rolls 👌🏼.

💛If you shop at Aldi, are there any other non-UPF convenience foods you have found?💛

Some great finds here, although the options were very limited! Isn’t it crazy that we have to search hard to find the foods that are not ultra processed? How did we get to this point?!
