3 easy ways to improve your nutrition




Nutrition doesn't need to be complicated.


So here are my top tips for improving your diet and feeling good in yourself:


1. Eat enough protein


Prioritising protein is important for weight management as protein helps with appetite regulation, to build and repair tissue, to build muscle and bone, and to grow and maintain cells. Try and include protein with each meal you eat - good sources include: meat, fish, eggs, nuts & seeds and greek yoghurt.


2. Reduce refined sugars


Reducing added sugars from your diet reduces energy spikes throughout the day. This helps to balance blood sugar, reduce fatigue and helps with weight management. Monitoring your intake of refined sugar also reduces the risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes. Try cutting back on sugary foods such as the following:


- Opt for sugar free drinks and reduce the amount of sugar in tea & coffee

- Be mindful of sauces and condiments with added sugar

- Eat full fat foods (reduced fat foods often contain more sugar)

- Eat whole foods as often as you can


3. Up the fibre


Increasing your fibre intake helps to aid digestion and a healthy gut, fibre keeps us fuller for longer and lowers cholesterol. Try and increase your fibre in your daily diet, through eating more of the following foods: fruit, vegetables, legumes, oats, nuts & seeds, wholewheat and wholegrain breads, cereals & pasta.


Don't overcomplicate it and don't 'cut out' food groups - try these 3 simple changes and notice the difference!
