Cold weather leaves us feeling peckish between meals. Let’s talk smart snacking!

When that afternoon slump hits, it’s tempting to grab something quick and carb-heavy—but that often leads to a crash (and more cravings).

Instead, choose a high-protein snack to stay full, energized, and satisfied!

Here are a few of my go-to options:

Lean biltong
Greek yogurt with berries
A boiled egg
Cottage cheese or Hummus with veggie sticks

Protein helps curb hunger, supports muscle health, and keeps your energy steady—win-win-win.
What’s your favorite high-protein snack?

This cooler weather has us feeling snacky between meals.
That’s totally normal — but instead of reaching for sweets, try a protein-rich snack to keep you full and energized until your next meal!

Protein helps stabilize blood sugar, curbs cravings, and supports muscle health — all super important whether you’re working out or working at your desk.

Here is my go-to:
1 packet lentil chips and 1/4 cup plain fat free cottage cheese as a dip

1 packet + 60g (1/4 cup) =
230kcal
10g protein
25g carbs
10g Fat

Remember: snacking isn’t bad — it’s about what you choose. Fuel smart! .ellmer

Immune Support ☀️

Here are some great ways to boost your immune system this coming winter, and, based on real evidence, you can do that each day by:
* Eating healthily by focusing on a variety of minimally processed quality foods from the different food groups to ensure your body gets all the nutrients it needs. Aim for at least five colourful vegetables and fruit daily. 🍐🥦🍊🥒🍅
* Saying no to high energy, sugar, salt and fat foods including
take-aways, sweetened drinks, sweets, chips, cakes, biscuits and all the other highly processed options. 🧁
* Enjoying tucking up warm at night and getting the sleep you need to wake up refreshed and strong. 💪🏽
* Keeping active every day. 🏃🏽‍♂️
* Letting go of your stress and anxieties. 🤍
* Washing your hands often with soap and water for at least 15 seconds. When you are not near a sink, use a hand sanitizer. 🧼
