Each week, I make a list of the things that I want to achieve. These are tasks that are realistic and can be done with a little motivation. This week I plan to write some useful blogs to help you feel empowered and knowledgable about your health.
Australia is blessed with fabulous climates and fertile soil. We are so lucky to have access to local fruit and veg helping to keep food tasting as it should.
It’s surprising therefore, to know that most Australians eat only about half of the recommended quantity of fruit.
For an average adult, 2 serves of fruit and 5 serves of vegetables are recommended on a daily basis.
Not only are fruit and veg packed with vitamins and minerals essential to good health, but they contain fibre which is thought to reduce the risk of some cancers, such as colorectal cancer.
So next time you’re out shopping be sure to pop some colourful fruit and veg in your basket.
As we head into the cooler months, sniffles and colds become much more common. To help prevent these affecting you, it’s important to take care of your immune system - which is our network of processes that protect us from bugs. It can be strengthened in many ways, such as; eating a healthy balanced diet containing vitamins, sleeping well, regular hand washing, exercising regularly and limiting stress.
So next time you’re in the supermarket why not pick up some colourful fruits that are packed with essential nutrients and vitamins, helping to keep you strong and healthy.
