dietary advice •

Learning to choose the right foods and cultivating good nutritional habits will keep you healthy for the rest of your life.

In our busy lives with the mountain of convenience foods available it is easy to lose our way and fill up with nutrient-depleted and highly processed foods.

Clean food and clean water are the foundations of good health. The importance of diet to health, especially in the prevention of illness, is well founded in research. Very often, dietary change is all that is needed to restore that balance and regain optimum health. This can range from simple dietary alterations to a full detoxification programme.

Some basic dietary advice is to:

• include all major food groups (fats, proteins and carbohydrates) in your diet
• choose whole foods which are unprocessed and free from chemical additives
• eat as wide a variety of foods as possible
• experiment with new foods and recipes
• begin to cook meals from scratch
• enjoy and savour your food.
