Take a smoothie with you made from probiotic yoghurt or kefir, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds , almonds (school rules permitting) and some blueberries. It will keep your energy up and help your memory.

ZINC deficient?

Wednesday, 11 September 2019 by pippa
Pumpkin seeds

Are you ZINC deficient? Symptoms include poor digestion, bloating, lack of appetite, poor immunity against infection, thinning hair, weak nails, acne, rashes and poor concentration. Zinc is best absorbed through food – pumpkin seeds, grass fed beef and lamb, cashews and chickpeas are all high zinc foods. If your symptoms don’t improve after increasing these foods in your diet, book an appointment with a BioKinesiologist who can assess your needs and recommend the right supplement for you.

Children’s Lunchbox

Wednesday, 11 September 2019 by pippa
childrens lunchbox

Does your child have tantrums, bad behaviour, low mood or low self esteem? You may need to look no further than their lunchbox. Foods we eat affect the chemicals in our brain and our blood sugar level, which affect mood. Sugar is a major contributor to mood disorders so replace sweetened yoghurt, biscuits and bars with fruit. Protein is very important for balancing blood sugar levels but some proteins are better than others. Remove processed meats like packaged ham and chicken as they are full of fillers, preservatives, sugar and salt which lead to mood swings. Replace with home cooked chicken, eggs, hummus and cheese. Small changes every day can make a big difference.
