Lovely evening on Wednesday night of good food, health and wellness with margaretskitchen_ie

The topic was Future Proofing your Life with every day diet.

At 40yrs plus, hormones shift, muscle mass declines, bone density drops, metabolism slows.

Nutrition becomes the lever that you can control daily and does influence our future health.

The Nutrition Pillars for Our Future Health that we discussed:

Making Protein Your Best Friend

✅Muscle = longevity currency.
✅Target: 1–1.5 g/kg bodyweight daily.
✅Spread across meals (25–30g/meal).
✅Sources: eggs, Greek yogurt, fish, poultry, tofu, lentils, beans, seeds.

Fiber as Medicine

⚡️Gut health drives inflammation, immunity, mood.
⚡️Target: 25–30g/day.
⚡️Sources: veg, berries, beans, whole grains, nuts, seeds.
💚Simple hack: half your plate veg at lunch + dinner.

Smart Fats for Brain + Hormones

📌Omega-3s = anti-inflammatory + brain protective.
📌Weekly target: 2–3 servings oily fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel) or
flax/chia/walnuts.
📌Olive oil over processed seed oils.

Lots of lovely food and tips to take away.

How is September looking for you?

This week I planned out the month with a client who is a teacher back to secondary school.
She got her timetable and it’s a full week with some busy evenings too.

🍳We discussed breakfast, a few options to have ready.

🍗High protein lunches as she has seen the benefit of it over the summer.

🏋️‍♀️An exercise routine that will fit in with her busy days, some online at home and some outdoors.
As she is perimenopausal weight bearing exercises are part of her sept plan to build strength and muscle to support the hormonal changes.

🥩We discussed iron sources and a supplement as her last test results were on the low end of the range.

🥬To ease some low oestrogen perimenopausal symptoms we discussed magnesium and omegas 3 and 7.

September is the big month of the year for change.

Whether you have kids in school or not its a big month of change.

Habits, activities, season, energy all changes in September.

We don’t always like change but planning for it makes it easier.

Let me help you map out your September and ease you into the autumn with my free health review.

What back to school habits are you working on this week ?

✅I’m working on getting the kids into bed earlier this week and every week.

✅I’m also working on getting MYSELF into bed earlier ! Most important of all !!

✅There’s been more sweet things for all of us over the summer so that’s reducing too this week.

✅Snacks at night are going too this week kitchen is closed to teens at 9pm !

✅My youngest is starting secondary school 💕so we are breakfast planning for the longer school days, we need to fuel them well first thing.
Eggs, overnight oats, smoothie with high protein yoghurt are on the menu.

What habits are you working on this week ?

I would love to know. Please share with us.

HELLO AUGUST – its not the start of Autumn it's the last flush of Summer.

August = the last hurrah of the summer.

You’ve got 31 days to plan that play date, plan more days out with the kids, get the uniforms, school shoes, plan that night out with your old school friends.

Phew its busy!

Lets get your August Nutrition Game Plan in place to get you through the month:

🥦 1. Greens Daily – non-negotiable. Liver cleanse and fibre boost.

💧 2. Hydration Check – 2 litres. No, coffee doesn’t count.

🛏 3. 7-8hrs Sleep – Don't wait for Sept to work on this. You need recovery now.

📉 4.Look at your sugar intake – the hidden kind in “healthy” snacks. Read labels.

🍑 5. Eat Seasonal – So much on offer right now-peaches, berries, beans, peas, courgettes, tomatoes. Better taste + more nutrients + cheaper.

🍫 Dark chocolate for focus (in moderation!)

💧 Hydration for optimal brain performance

⚡️Magnesium for healthy brain aging and to beat the fog 😶‍🌫️

Daily simple habits matter !

That small 1% change every day becomes a big change when it happens every day.

Last week my clients were focusing on the small things and they have seen big changes.

Small things like
✔️more water
✔️more veg in their day
✔️replacing phone in evening with a book
✔️planned times of meals
✔️getting up earlier
✔️having breakfast later

This has resulted in more energy, clarity, less bloating and weight loss too !

What small change do you need to make to get started ?

Delighted to help this client over the last month.

🧪Test results showed a low functioning thyroid which was possibly linked to the medication he was on.
The medication is linked to low absorption of a number of nutrients also.

Highlighting this to him and his GP now means they will monitor more closely.

⚡️Awareness is key to a healthy lifestyle.
Awareness around diet, medication, sleep, digestion and exercise.

When I work with clients awareness is the first step in building a healthy toolkit followed by education, planning and habit building.

The temps are increasing again so let’s liven up your salads ! 🥑🍑🍉🫒🥬

Lunch today included lots of in season veg and some fruit.
✔️Tomatoes
✔️courgette roasted (leftovers from Sunday)
✔️Peaches
✔️Rocket

The chopped flat peach added a lovely flavour and texture.

Peaches are also great with basil and feta cheese!

Let’s think in season and different flavours and textures this week.

💚AWARENESS - my word of the month for June !

That’s what I hoped for my 1:1 clients and those who attended my seminars.
Awareness around:
Their meals 🍴
Their sleep 💤
Their habits 📝

Also for me awareness of how I Interacted with those people that I met this month.

How I made them feel, how I felt during and after a seminar. Was it enough ? Could I improve ?

Awareness means for me always learning always improving.
