13.01.2022 Are you trying to fall pregnant? It may be very worth while considering going Flexitarian. We all know that eating well is important when trying to become pregnant. A nutritious diet plus a folic acid supplement are seen as essential but did you know the type of protein you eat may affect your fertility? A large ongoing study commenced by Harvard Medical School in the early 1970s has found exactly this. The findings suggest women should aim to derive half their protein fr...om plant sources and half from fish and eggs and only eat red meat occasionally. Why ? Well, put simply : Each extra serve of red meat, chicken or turkey in the diet increased the risk of ovulatory infertility by one third, whereas every extra serve of plant-based protein such as beans, peas, tofu, soy-beans, or nuts, provided modest protection against ovulatory infertility. Each serve of fish or eggs had a neutral effect. The study also looked at the effect of the swapping protein for carbohydrates in the diet. What they found only added weight to the argument that increasing plant protein was optimal. They found if 25g of carbohydrates were swapped for animal protein it increased ovulatory infertility whilst the same swap for plant protein resulted in decreased (ovulatory) infertility. In summary, the study found that deriving at least half of your protein from plant sources will provide modest protection against ovulatory infertility whilst swapping some of your current carbs for plant protein can also help decrease ovulatory infertility.

12.01.2022 A very large survey conducted by the CSIRO has confirmed what most of us already knew; we're struggling to eat sufficient fruit and veg. In fact, the survey has revealed only 24% of Australian women are having the recommended 2 serves of fruit & 5 serves of vegetable a day. Last week we noted the Australian Gudielines for breastfeeding mums is actually 2 fruit & 7 vegetable serves due to the increased nutritional demands of breastfeeding and we acknowledged this is a tough as...k to many people. So, if you're one of the 24% whose diets meet the daily recommendations, maybe you could share some of your secret ways to eat more serves fruit and vegetables. One of my favourites is at breakfast. I simply love mushrooms, spinach and eggs. They can be prepared with the minimum of fuss and with the addition of a little garlic and smoked paprika, it's a proven winner (not to forget it nails 2 of the recommended serves). Check out this recipe on Smitten Kitchen for a baked version. https://smittenkitchen.com//baked-eggs-with-spinach-and-mu If you're interested in seeing how your current diet stacks up when compared to the CSIRO recommendations, why not click on the link and find out your own "diet -score". https://my.totalwellbeingdiet.com/healthy-diet-score

09.01.2022 WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME? After walking and talking, the introduction of solids must be one of the most obsessed about milestones in a baby’s life.

06.01.2022 BANANARAMA! Bananas are rich in fibre, complex carbohydrates, and an array of mineral and vitamins such as; potassium, vitamin B6, Vitamin C, magnesium, copper, manganese. Great for feeding the friendly bacteria on the gut. Potassium rich foods are vital for health and it is one of the most important minerals in the body.
