24.01.2022 Have you packed your lunches and/or snacks for the next couple of days. Sundays are the perfect day to get yourself organised for the new week and keep you on track with your health and nutrition. At this time of year there is always going to be extra treats and get-togethers to enjoy with colleagues and loved ones, so be kind to yourself, enjoy the festivities, and eat balanced meals around this. Remember it’s what you do most of the time that counts. #nutrition #nutritionist #springwood #springwoodnsw #mealprep

23.01.2022 Last nights dinner = todays lunch. Whats your favourite garnish or topping to finish off a meal? Im loving hemp seeds right now! An extra hit of protein, good fats and fibre as well as nutty flavour and texture. Whats your go-to topper? #nutrition #nutritionist #lovesahomecookedmeal

23.01.2022 Love a bit of colour coordinating of meals! Quick and easy ginger, carrot & pumpkin soup mixed with some rice, and a glass of nudie carrot, apply & ginger juice. Lots of yummy anti inflammatory and antioxidant goodness here! #nutritionist #vitaminarichfoods #orangefood

23.01.2022 Re-use & minimise unnecessary waste Ive been collecting the rubber bands from my veggies for a few months now and look at this stash. Every time I grab a bunch of kale, asparagus, broccolini, shallots or radish, there is always 1-2 elastic bands on each bunch. This adds up very quickly as you can see, and this is just one household of two for a few months. Do you save and reuse your rubber bands? What else do you try and collect and reuse? #recycle #reuse #rubberband #eatyourveggies @ Springwood, New South Wales

22.01.2022 Last nights meal prepping for the next few days. Crispy skin salmon with mashed parsnip/potato and broccoli + organic meatballs with tomato, veg & brown rice pasta. Make most of your mess at the same time so you only have to wash up once! Used a range of yummy veggies from our delivered organic fruit/veg box. Yum! #nutritionist #springwood #keepitsimple #glasscontainersforthewin #leftoversforlunch

22.01.2022 Looking for a delicious warm breakfast to start your day? Why not try a bowl of buckwheat porridge? Cooked with coconut milk and served with cacao, maca, cacao nibs, banana, tahini and a splash of maple syrup. Perfect for those with dietary requirements (gluten free, dairy free, egg free, vegan). Made using @bobsredmill buckwheat, @powersuperfoods maca & cacao, @organicroad_aus maple syrup all picked up at @govitaspringwood where my clinic is now based #springwood #springwoodnsw #glutenfree #dairyfree #vegan

21.01.2022 Veggie egg cups for the win! I love playing around in the kitchen. Not sure my hubby loves the mess I make but I know he enjoys the food that is created #nutritionist #nutrition #mealprep #nourishyourbody #dirtydishesfordays

20.01.2022 Love using leftovers and adding something fresh after long days in clinic. So easy to add a handful of leafy greens and some good fats to whatever you have prepped the night before. Healthy habits take the stress out of eating well and nourishing yourself day in and day out. #nutritionist #keepitsimple #macronutrientbalanced #springwood

20.01.2022 Dinner last night: Asian style turkey mince with recipe inspo from @thefitfoodieblog - turkey mince with chilli, lime juice & zest, coconut aminos, garlic - added broccoli & served with buckwheat pasta, fresh coriander and a drizzle of sweet chilli sauce. Made enough for lunch today, along with an orange and a smoothie. Happy Monday everybody. #nutrition #nutritionist #springwood #mealprep #leftoversforlunch @ Springwood, New South Wales

20.01.2022 With everything else that is going on at the moment, I wanted to highlight that this week is Coeliac Disease Awareness Week. If you have any questions or need support, I have coeliac disease myself (diagnosed back in 2010) and am able to help you work with your GP to get a diagnosis, navigate a gluten free diet, and work on improving your gut and immune system health and correct any related nutritional deficiencies. Feel free to book an appointment (I offer phone and Zoom appointments too) or message me to find out more.

19.01.2022 Leftover spaghetti sauce to pimp up my quick salad and brown rice for dinner tonight Loving being busy in clinic supporting you all with your health & nutrition goals x So proud of your progress, and love chatting through the obstacles. We’ve got this! #nutritionist #rainbowleftovers #springwoodvillage

19.01.2022 Rainbow leftovers for the win. Save yourself time and money by cooking extra and making variations of your meal the following day. Ive been working very long days since taking over the @govitaspringwood store. Having good quality macronutrient balanced meals semi-prepared is essential! The days I havent prepared ahead have been so much harder. What have you organised for your lunch & snacks tomorrow? Id love to see/hear?? #nutritionist #mealprep #springwood #springwoodvillage #setyourselfupforsuccess #newbusinessowner

19.01.2022 Making sure Im up to date with the facts so I can support my local community.

18.01.2022 Last nights dinner = today’s lunch. What’s your favourite garnish or topping to finish off a meal? I’m loving hemp seeds right now! An extra hit of protein, good fats and fibre as well as nutty flavour and texture. What’s your go-to topper? #nutrition #nutritionist #lovesahomecookedmeal

18.01.2022 How are your vitamin D levels? Did you know one of the many roles vitamin D plays is supporting the health of our immune system. Low levels of vitamin D are associated with higher risks of acute upper and lower respiratory tract infections. Message me if you have any questions.

17.01.2022 Lazy lunch inspo Love this combo of @venerdi_bread paleo superseed toast topped with smashed avo, @olivegreenorganics wild caught salmon in EVOO, @changinghabits_hq seaweed salt and pepper. Served with @urbavorebluemountains leafy greens mix with cucumber, radish, grated carrot and any other veggies i had in the crisper. Voila! Super filling with good quality protein, fats and veggies to keep you going all afternoon. #eatyourveggies #balancedmeals #nutrition #nutritionist

17.01.2022 If I happen to have my phone nearby I try and snap a quick photo before I sit down to eat. This allows me to look back on what I’ve enjoyed so I can make it again, and also illustrate how nutritious food can be so colorful & simple. So here’s a snapshot from the last few weeks in my kitchen. Nourish yourself from the inside it (and yes, you can enjoy that little something extra too - for me it’s some good quality chocolate) Balance is key

16.01.2022 An excellent reminder to the eat the rainbow. I talk a lot about this in clinic to optimise your health and nutrition. Count the colours in your meals today and see what else you could add in!

16.01.2022 Realised I have not posted for ages as I’ve been so busy seeing lovely clients in clinic and owning and running the local health food shop at @govitaspringwood Here’s a few recent food pics that have come out of my kitchen to catch you up on what I’ve been eating and throwing together with little spare time Always something green, something fresh, and served with some good quality carbs, protein & fat. Keep it simple and play around with flavour combos. I was loving some pear, pine nuts, balsamic vinegar and a sprinkle of Parmesan earlier this week. So many great salad combos to play around with at this time of year. #imanutritionistnotaphotographer #keepitsimple #mycamerarollisallfood #nutritionist #springwood

15.01.2022 Loving this rainbow of veg When your plate looks this good you cant help but smile Dukkah crumbed organic chicken thigh with roasted sweet potato, carrot & pumpkin, beetroot, and a leafy green spinach & rocket salad with capsicum & grated carrot. Drizzled with balsamic vinegar for a little zing! Today I loved meeting with new and old clients and supporting them with their health and nutrition goals. I find this work so rewarding and love hearing about little wins and positive changes they are making along the way. I also love researching the latest nutrition recommendations and supplements for each individual person. If you need some support Id love to help you too #nutrition #nutritionist #springwood #springwoodnsw #springwoodvillage #holistichealth #individualisednutrition

15.01.2022 Today I went grocery shopping, and saw this elderly man, probably at least 84 years old, with an empty trolley staring at empty shelves of bread. My heart broke.... I had gotten the last two hot dog bun packs and gave him one out of my trolley, I said At least its still bread and he laughed and thanked me (I felt that was the least I could have done for him) If you see an old person, please stop and ask if they need anything. Stop and give them something from your trolley that is no longer on the shelves that you could easily come back and get tomorrow. Who knows where they came from or how long it took them to get to the shops, only to get there and find empty shelves. In a time of complete and utter maddens and chaos, please dont forget to look out for each other and look out for those who need it most. Check up on your elderly neighbour or friend or elderly stranger on the street. Dont be consumed by greed. Love thy neighbour. See more

14.01.2022 Australians are consuming less than 1 teaspoon of olive oil per day. That's despite a large evidence base that suggests having 25-50ml of Extra Virgin Olive Oil... (EVOO) a day is associated with health benefits, in particular for cholesterol and blood pressure health. Our recommendation? Aim for 45ml, or 3 tablespoons, of EVOO every day as part of a balanced, healthy diet. Read more from dietitians Dr Hannah Mayr and Dr Elena George: https://bit.ly/3s3B502

13.01.2022 Weekend brekkies enjoyed in the air con Stay cool today. It’s apparently going to hit the 40s!

12.01.2022 Ive been a little quiet lately but this is why! As of Monday, my husband and I will be the new owners of Go Vita Springwood and Ill be practicing from the clinic room there. For now Im offering phone and zoom consults to help you continue with your health goals while staying at home, but as things settle down, we can return to face to face consults. If you are looking for an appointment feel free to email me. Hope you are all staying well x

12.01.2022 Leftovers galore... rainbow garden salad, falafels, home made fried rice paired served with crispy skin salmon and a tbsp sauerkraut. Delicious and super quick after a full day of work. Great way to get in & out of the kitchen in no time. Hope your night is relaxing

11.01.2022 Did someone say greens? Tip: When you get home from the farmers market or grocery store, get everything out on the bench and wash, cut and container it straight away to make meal prep easier for the week ahead. Otherwise they can get buried in your fridge and on those tired nights when you are looking for a quick option they can become invisible and the ease of takeaway can sneak in. #nutritionist #nutrition #eatyourveggies #organicveggies #mealprep #setyourselfupforsuccess

10.01.2022 Leftovers = the perfect breakfast After a busy morning in clinic, a common theme I hear over again is skipping breakfast, not having enough protein (especially at breakfast), not getting enough veggies throughout the day, and undereating throughout the day (to then overeat at night). Try working on these areas and you will have consistent energy, improved nutrition & begin your journey towards a sustainable and healthy weight. #nutrition #nutritionist #springwood #springwoodvillage #wholefoods #consistencyiskey

09.01.2022 Dukkah crusted organic chicken thighs - inspo from @livelovenourishaus served with a beautiful garden salad last night. So quick and so tasty!!!! Whats your favourite marinade/coating/spice to add to chicken? #nutrition #nutritionist #simplecooking #midweekmeals #dukkah

06.01.2022 Love a simple salmon & avo on paleo style (grain free) bread with scrambled eggs, shallots and baby spinach combo. Soooo easy & filling. Big thanks to @primalalternativebyleanne for the bread samples. Thumbs up so far! This was me trying your keto friendly fat & seedy bread (toasted) with only 1g carbs per slice #nutrition #nutritionist #springwood #springwoodnsw #springwoodvillage

04.01.2022 This blog post is very well written and has some good nutritional and herbal tips to support your immune system. What else do you do to support your immune system? I also love recommending eating lots of plant based foods, antioxidant nutrients like zinc and vitamins A, C & E, soups/broths/curries, garlic, ginger, herbal teas, prioritizing rest/sleep, and of course staying well hydrated. Share your favourite immune boosting tips with me.

04.01.2022 An oldie but a goodie, just rewatched the 2014 US documentary Fed Up on Netflix. It highlights so many of the issues contributing to childhood obesity, first and foremost sugar, processed foods, mixed nutrition messages, food industry tactics, political involvement, media influences, and so much more. Check it out if you are interested - powerful messages

04.01.2022 Looking for some lunch inspiration? Why not try this combo? Its so delicious Salad greens Cherry tomatoes Roasted pumpkin... Oven baked chicken breast (crumbed in almond meal, nutritional yeast flakes, mixed herbs, salt & an egg) Toasted sunflower kernels Home made dressing (tahini, honey, apple cider vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice). All real whole nutritious ingredients! Give it a whirl! If you are vegetarian, feel free to swap the chicken for tofu, tempeh, boiled eggs, or some roasted chickpeas. Enjoy! Feel free to share a photo of your creation with me. Tick off the veggies, protein and good fats as you go. #nutritionist #nutrition #homemademeals #macronutrientbalanced #springwood #springwoodnsw #springwoodvillage @ Springwood, New South Wales

04.01.2022 Love a bit of weekend baking! These zucchini fritters from @thefitfoodieblog are amazing! Highly recommend them for a quick brekky, a snack, or a side dish to up your veggie intake. Happy Saturday everyone. I also have some big things happening over the next few months and I cant wait to share with you all. Ive also been continuing to learn from many experts in the natural medicine field this week, and have some new information to share with you about iron deficiency & sup...plementation, pathogens that may be playing a role in chronic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, and what the science actually says about the role parasitic infections like blastocystis hominis & d. fragilis play when it comes to gut health. Learning, learning, always learning! #nutrition #nutritionist #evidencebasedpractice #springwood #springwoodnsw #springwoodvillage @ Springwood, New South Wales See more

03.01.2022 There are a number of nutrients that can be really helpful when it comes to supporting children with ADHD, ASD, or other learning difficulties. Magnesium, B vitamins, zinc, vitamin D, fish oil and probiotics are some beneficial starting points. By meeting with a clinical nutritionist, naturopath and/or integrative doctor, specific supplements can be recommended at therapeutic doses alongside dietary and lifestyle changes to help your child manage their emotions and participate to their fullest in day to day activities. If you or someone you know may benefit from learning more about this topic, please feel free to get in touch.

03.01.2022 Apart from washing your hands, staying home if you feel sick, and practicing good personal hygiene (covering your mouth/nose when you sneeze & cough), one of the best things you can do to support your health and immune system is to fill your plate with real whole foods. Plenty of rainbow vegetables, good quality fats & protein, herbs & spices, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. There are so many amazing tools that nature has provided us. The menu at my place this weekend c...onsisted of organic eggs, paleo toast, beetroot hummus, broccolini, asparagus & cherry tomatoes for brunch. Dinner was a delicious sweet potato red lentil dhal filled with turmeric, ginger, pepper & coconut cream (recipe courtesy of @lovelifeandglutenfree - love her book!) Try your best to stay calm, sleep well, move your body, keep your fluids up, and look after yourself and those around you. #holisticnutrition #nutrition #nutritionist #springwood #supportyourimmunesystemnaturally @ Springwood, New South Wales

03.01.2022 Todays lunch ... Organic chicken drumsticks marinated in paprika, extra virgin olive oil and garlic, served with mixed salad greens, grated carrot, roasted pumpkin, roasted red onion, halloumi and a big squeeze of lemon juice. Whats on your plate today? Id love to see photos! #nutrition #nutritionist #showmeyourplate #springwood #springwoodnsw #springwoodvillage

02.01.2022 Have you been taking a fish oil supplement for ages but arent sure if it is actually helping you? Do you think you are eating enough omega 3 essential fatty acids in your diet (e.g. salmon, walnuts, chia seeds, avocados)? Why not take a quick test to see what your red blood cell omega 3 status actually is? Low levels of essential fatty acids can be linked to inflammation and health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, macular degeneration, depression and reduced cognitive function. If you are interested in knowing more and completing this test, send me a message.

02.01.2022 A busy morning in clinic today talking all things health and nutrition with my lovely clients. Backed this up with unpacking lots of new stock at the @govitaspringwood shop and getting our new signs installed. I was so thankful that I took some time out on Tuesday night to prep this delicious pumpkin soup and some egg & veggie muffins. Have you planned what you are going to be eating tomorrow yet? It will honestly help you stay on track and simplify your day. You dont have to prep every meal but if you at least pack your lunch or some healthy snacks in your bag youre setting yourself up for a win! #nutrition #nutritionist #prepyourmeals #planahead

02.01.2022 Easy dinner with leftover bits and pieces and a few pantry/fridge staples. Chicken thigh (pulled off yesterdays leftover drumsticks), mixed salad leaves, coriander, avocado, mayo, and a cup of basmati rice. Ticking off the protein, veggies, carbs & good fats. Enjoy the last few hours of the weekend everyone xx #nutrition #nutritionist #eatrealfood #macronutrientbalanced

02.01.2022 I love discovering new coeliac suitable cafes in the blue mountains. I was impressed this morning with this yummy green bowl and a soy chai latte at @lilys_pad_cafe Am keen to go back again and try something else on the menu. #nutrition #nutritionist #coeliacdisease #coeliacfriendly #bluemountains
