Test vitamin D in Autumn

Ready to enjoy the Gorgeous Sunsets? First Test vitamin D

As Autumn draws near, sunsets are starting to show their best colours in the year. The autumn leave are falling ready for the trees to bloom again in Spring. Life for a woman is similarly beautiful, and as autumn approaches we need to find our best selves and best colours we ever believed we had in past years. Testing vitamin D, is one of the key strategies to navigate not only Autumn and prepare for winter, but also to navigate peri-menopause and thrive during the most beautiful and powerful time of our lives: Menopause.

Did you know that vitamin D is a key hormone for our health, for our digestion, for our mental balance and for our skin beauty? Knowing the levels of vitamin D is the only way to know to what level we need to supplement our bodies with that very important fat-soluble vitamin that is key to so many functions for our organism.

Get in touch with me to test vitamin D, and other functional testing, and to have best advice to gracefully navigating the most important and lavish time of your life: Menopause!

Irresistible n. 1 Chicory Latte

Why not recharging your midmorning with an anti-inflammatory drink full of tasty ingredients,

which will help you stay on top of your energy without you getting bloated?

Enjoy this recipe for an anti-inflammatory latte! No caffeine, no dairy,

great taste, detoxing and environment friendly. Easy to make and shake.

Often we do not know that some of the most staple ingredients are not our friends. We have eaten or drunk them for so many years with no adverse effects, and then suddenly one morning a simple Latte bloats us and we have no clue what it was: was it the caffeine? was it the milk? was it the sugar? Or the caramel syrup we like so much?

Our immune defence system simply can no longer tolerate some ingredients because we have saturated our system with them.

This chicory latte contains anti-inflammatory ingredients and it just tastes delicious. Try for yourself and see the results.

You can buy the agave syrup (preferably wholemeal – i.e. dark) and the vegetable milk in any supermarket (oats, almond, rice, coconut, according to the foods your digestive system can tolerate). Buy the chicory coffee in any good Healthy Food shop.

Buy a good hot drink shaker (Knoops sell a really good one with an expanding lid). And you’re ready to go!

Chicory Latte

Ingredients (serves 2):

400 ml oats, almond or wholemeal rice milk

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1 pinch of ground clove

1 teaspoon chicory soluble coffee

maple syrup or agave syrup to sweeten (optional)

Method:

– Warm up the milk in a small pan and take it off the fire before boiling point.

– Wisk the milk in a jug until frothy.

– add the spices and the coffee and whisk more.

– sweeten the latte with a small amount of maple or agave syrup (coconut milk and rice milk are already naturally sweet).

You can sprinkle the top of the milk with ground cinnamon or cloves, or bitter cocoa, to taste.

Enjoy!

29 September — World Heart Day

A LOWER CARBOHYDRATE DIET is recommended to balance blood sugar and therefore reduce insulin and blood glucose levels. Elevated insulin is a major risk factor for heart disease and promotes inflammation. You’re also likely will lose weight on a blood sugar balancing diet, and that in itself will reduce the risk for many chronic diseases, including heart disease and high blood pressure.

To help your hear health make sure you enrich your diet with plenty of: fibre, healthy fats, fruit and vegetables. Avoid at all costs processed foods and vegetable oils (except of course for Extra virgin olive oil, rapseed oil, linseed oil and coconut oil).

Increase your antioxidants

You need to stockpile those natural antioxidants (and not just the packets and tins of pulses!). When you supercharge this “antioxidant potential” you give your immune system a real boost. And, if you’re wondering ‘where have I heard about antioxidants before?’ they’re the things skincare companies tell you their anti-ageing moisturisers are full of so double win.

Why are antioxidants important?

Viruses and bacteria produce oxidants, which are reactive forms of oxygen that damage cells and age you faster. Simply, they are bad news. We’re also getting our fill of oxidants from eating chargrilled/ blackened foods or breathing polluted air, and maybe you’ve had a less than great diet over the years. Where you can end up is a situation in which you have too many oxidants and not enough antioxidants.

Revving up your antioxidant status at times like these is a really good idea. While vitamin C seems to get all the praise when it comes to immunity, there’s another molecule that is the under-recognised supporting actor who deserves the starring role – glutathione.

…more about glutathione tomorrow!
