To follow a healthy lifestyle doesn’t always have to be “life changing” habits and extreme routines. Sometimes, a little goes a long way. I want to show you some small changes that you can make now. Smarter choices here and there can ultimately help you to reach your health goals: maybe you want to lose weight, prevent high blood pressure or just feel like you’ve got more energy! Let’s take a look at how we can make small changes for BIG impacts! 1. MILK & DAIRY PRODUCTS A small, easy change you can make is: YOUR MILK and DAIRY PRODUCTS: Change from full cream or full fat, to low fat/medium fat milk and dairy products. It won’t affect the taste or any nutrients -only difference is the fat content will be lower leading to lower energy content as well! BONUS! 2. FOOD PREPARATION  Food preparation is also a huge culprit of unhealthy habits, that we tend to overlook when trying to be healthier. Instead of deep frying everything in loads of oil, try to measure the amo

Do you exercise ENOUGH to eat that?

We hear this too often: "Wow, after that gym session I surely deserve a doughnut!"... The question is, do we REALLY deserve a big, sugary or high fat treat after our workouts? Some research studies have emerged, indicating that we tend to overestimate calories burned during our exercise and training activities; while underestimating the amount of calories in various treats and food items. That is a bit of a double-blunder! Basically, this means we are burning less energy during our weekly sweat sessions, but eating more than we realize!  Although I am all about balanced lifestyles and I am aware that the occasional treat won't cause dramatic consequences for the general population (obviously apart from those with chronic diseases or individual conditions), we do however need to be more conscious on our DAILY habits. For some, this really does include a high caloric smoothie after a very mediocre training session.  Where do we get lost? With most people training on gym equ

BOOST YOUR ENERGY!

BLOOD SUGAR & ENERGY LEVELS When we eat food or drink a beverage, our bodies digest it and it gets absorbed into the bloodstream as sugar where it provides energy for our bodies. Some food and drinks cause TOO MUCH SUGAR in the bloodstream (“energy high”) - this is the HIGH GI food - and damages our body. Soon then it slumps to very LOW SUGAR in the bloodstream (“energy dip”) - leaving us with cravings, headaches, dizziness and very tired! Low GI food provides slow release energy and prevents energy dips.   Lower the GI of common foods: Add a fat or protein to carbs or fruit or vegetable. Apple plus 30g nuts 3 whole grain crackers plus 1 tablespoon cottage cheese Veggie sticks plus hummus dip Fruit plus 1 tablespoon sugar free peanut butter Fruit plus yoghurt 1 slice rye bread plus 1 tablespoon peanut butter This will provide sustained energy for longer times. Avoid the foods that cause a sudden surge in blood glucose which might end up causing that energy dip.

This week’s topic is the one leaving you toilet bound for a few hours… It is usually a centre of embarrassment. But I have discovered in my occupation, of being a registered dietician (especially while working in the hospitals), that talking about this is NO BIGGY! You guessed it: Diarrhoea! Dieticians are SO awesome. We use all these “taboo” subjects to actually help our patients and bring them to a healthier place! But enough about my exciting profession and more about the informative blog on a runny tummy… Diarrhoea refers to stools of very soft or liquid consistency accompanied by excessive fluids; as well as the unusual increased frequency of passing stool.
