Ever seen 'chemical-free' food? Well, this claim is pretty misleading! 😯

Whether it's an apple or a candy bar, all food is full of #chemicals! Any food can be broken down into a long list of foreign ingredients. That might seem scary, but it doesn't mean it's harmful! 🙅 @fs4eu

Planning and preparing healthy snacks helps us to keep our energy levels up and provides us with key nutrients that support our overall health.

It's #WorldHeartDay! 🌍❤️

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the world’s number one killer. Some risk factors, unfortunately, cannot be controlled, such as your age or family history. Yet, you can take steps to significantly lower your risk by changing the factors you CAN control.

[Food Choice @foodchoice_work]

It can be tempting to go for the quick fix to get results but quick fixes like fad diets are commonly associated with some degree of nutritional or health risk.

Here are some simple, healthier tips around maintaining a healthy weight.

Try our stir fry tofu noodles recipe!

100g of tofu (uncooked) can provide 350-400mg of calcium so it can be a great way to help reach your calcium intake for the day especially if you are not eating much dairy or are eating a more plant based diet.

❄️ Not only is putting your #fridge at the right temperature important (max 4°C), but there is also a science to where you should place your foods! 🧐

Do you store your products in the right compartment to keep them cool properly, avoid forgetting them & prevent #foodwaste? 👇

Can #weekend catch-up #sleep completely erase the bad effects of sleep loss during the week?
This 2019 @CurrentBiology paper from Prof. Ken Wright says NO.
Our body and mind still feel the weekdays' sleep debt and continue to disrupt our #metabolism.

Health is far more than the combination of eating a #balanceddiet & exercising. It's a good start, no doubt, but don't forget that there's so much more to being 'healthy'!

😴Get enough sleep
🚰Stay hydrated
🚭Quit smoking
🏞️Spend time outside
🧘Manage stress
🥰Practice self-love
