If there’s one underrated hero in nutrition, it’s Fiber, which does so much more than just keep you regular.
💚 4 Big Benefits of More Fiber in your diet:
1️⃣ Promotes smoother, more regular digestion 🌀
2️⃣ Feeds good gut bacteria → supports immunity
3️⃣ Helps lower “bad” LDL cholesterol ❤️
4️⃣ Stabilizes blood sugar + keeps you fuller for longer
How much to take:
➡️ Aim for 25–35 g total fiber daily
💧 Pro tip:
Start slow and stay hydrated! Fiber such as Psyllium absorbs water, so plenty of fluids are key.

🌞 Sun’s out… time for your Vitamin D dose! ✨

Even here in sunny South Africa, you may be at how many people have low vitamin D levels (below 20 ng/mL). The truth is:
☀️ Most of us don’t spend enough time in the sun
🥗 Food alone doesn’t give us enough vitamin D
💛 Vitamin D = the sunshine vitamin → happy mood, happy bones

In our practice, I aim for levels above 20 ng/mL — better safe than sorry. We have seen clients with low levels feel more energetic once they supplement and bring their levels up.

👉 Think sunshine, think happy. Take care of your bones and boost your energy.

Are you actually eating enough?

These signs may arise when dieting, restricting food groups or losing weight too fast.

Your body needs adequate fuel to perform and function at it's best! If not, it will let you know in many ways.

Allow your dietician to help you reach your goals in a healthy, non-restricting and stress-free way.
