Nutrition & Energy

Posted by admin on June 27th, 2011 and filed under nutrition and wellness | No Comments »

We are all so busy – in our work life, our family life, our social life… Do you ever feel like you might just forget to breathe…?

If you are somebody who writes long lists each morning of all the tasks that you need to complete – you will require energy levels that are bursting at the seams in order to achieve that deeply satisfying final tick!

We all know that our food is our fuel and therefore keeps us going. But did you know that your nutrition choices may in fact be sapping you of vital drops of energy?

Here is a typically stressed gal-about-town’s day on a plate:

Leaves house still applying mascara in compact mirror, with an empty growling tummy, or if lucky – a grabbed-on-the-go slice of toast which is competing for hand-clutch-space with a large skinny latte. Lunch is a wilting sandwich or salad ordered from the take-out place next door, or maybe just an apple and chocolate bar wolfed down in between meetings… By the time dinner comes around, gal-about-town is now gal-trying-to-peel-self-off-floor. Hunger is drumming inside her tummy and demanding bites of carb-rich, sugary treats… ‘Oooh and why not finish off that bottle of Pinot chilling in the fridge to ease away the worries of the day?!’

How do you think gal-about-town will feel when the alarm shrills at her at 6am the next morning? As fresh as a daisy or wilting like a weed?

*Weed!*

Here’s how gal-about-town might manage to conduct her day if she had a Food Fairy online nutritional consultation

Leaves house with a tummy full of scrummy, perfectly balanced breakfast which has been enjoyed sitting at the kitchen table whilst reading the morning papers, and washed down with a peppermint tea. Power walks to work, catches reflection in a passing window and admires freshly washed and styled hair and immaculately applied make-up! Having breezed through morning at work and encountered all stressful hurdles with poise, gal’ excitedly unwraps her alluring lunch designed for her unique nutritional requirements by the Food Fairy nutritionists. By the time she has floated home for the evening, gal is still energised enough to put together some delicious ingredients for a dashing dinner date and change into her favourite ‘flirt-skirt’ and heels. As she lights some candles and blots her lip gloss, gal’ considers how terribly productive she has become since she landed on the Food Fairy’s website all those weeks ago! Not to mention the flatter stomach, brighter complexion and sudden discovery of all those extra hours in the day that used to be spent snoozing under her desk at work…

Healthy Living – The Quality Of Life

Posted by admin on June 23rd, 2011 and filed under healthy living | No Comments »

The importance of dieting to healthy living depends on what you mean when you think diet. Do you want to feel healthy as you grow older each day? Living healthy means more than keeping away from junk food. There are four crucial components to healthy and balanced living: eating well, getting enough sleep, exercising regularly and daily meditation.


Your best approach to healthy living involves both watching your diet and getting adequate exercise, rather than trying to control one at the expense of the other. Exercise, a healthy diet and avoiding stress are the three most important ways you can ensure you are living a healthy lifestyle. Here are some suggestions for living a healthy lifestyle consistently, easily and permanently. Applying these simple tips for living a healthy improve your health and consequently the way you feel.


As you continue with your healthy living program, check in with yourself from time to time. If one wishes to achieve fitness and healthy living, he should go for holistic approach.


Three aspects of life hold your keys to healthy living: Love, Creativity, and Play. The third basic component of a healthy life is an adequate level of physical and mental activity.


Take the time to plan and prepare each day and commit to healthy eating and preparing healthy recipes. Eating healthy and watching your weight are not the only things you need to consider in having a healthy lifestyle. Diet and exercise are integral parts of a healthy lifestyle, it’s true.


But as with any other pill you might be considering adding to your body’s system, use common sense, consult with your doctor, and don’t forget that if you want to live healthy and look fantastic while doing it, you have to eat a balanced diet. Eat well – Set yourself up for success by only buying healthy food and by bringing your lunch if possible to work with you. De-stress with Exercise – Even if it is a brisk walk during lunch or a few minutes of silent meditation and breathing at your desk, simple stress relief can do wonders for all aspects of your life.


In the same way, good foods like fruits and vegetables, proteins in the form of lean meat and nuts will serve your body much better than a diet of highly processed, chemically treated foods that are loaded with sugar. If you forget to put oil in a car engine or top up with Diesel instead of gasoline it will break down eventually, the same principle applies to the human body.


If you don’t really have the time or money for the gym, or prefer to spend your mornings/nights at home, then try an exercise bike or walker, an exercise bike is a convenient machine, as it requires very little space.


It doesn’t matter if you’re a person entering the second half of your life, younger or older, the quality of life and priorities are something you should all be thinking about. Fitness and healthy living cannot be attained without the exercise of one’s will.


By following these few simple suggestions, you can take control of your health and your life. Be aware of how much you enjoy your life, or not.
