Here's a quick update on my last video & blog on how to make my daily health smoothie.  This is a great replacement for meals on fast days, if you're following the 5:2 diet, and will keep you going for hours. And it is full of huge health benefits.  If you're an intermittent faster, or want to be, I do it the easy way: a light meal the night before by 7.00 pm latest, the smoothie as late as possible the next morning (around 11.00 a.m.) a very light low calorie snack, such as a banana or boiled egg, at tea time and then a light meal, such as loads of veg and a small portion of protein, in the evening at 7.00 pm.  That's 500 calories in 24 hours and you've done a 16 hour pure fast without even trying. Two days a week, too easy!

OMG This Nutribullet recipe is soooo tasty, I cannot believe it's also good for you and will give your skin, body & brain a great, big beautiful boost.  And it's easy!  Ingredients below.  Put them into the Nutribullet or blender in that order, whizz up and drink: job done! 

I try to eat Omega-3 rich, oily fish like salmon as often as possible.  Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid that supports every single cell in our bodies so eating oily fish at least 3-4 times a week will keep skin plumped and your brain, heart and joints healthy…

Having bought a Nutribullet I wasn’t convinced that carrots and beetroot would be “juiced” enough.  They were!  Success! My latest breakfast is so quick, easy, tasty and healthy that I am just adding more and more ingredients to it each day!  Am completely in love with my new gadget. I know the “purists” will disapprove but, frankly, I haven’t got the time to stand at a Juicer every morning, feeding small pieces of carrot through a funnel.  Better to get those nutrients down you than not at all is all I can say…

This is the sort of dish you can just throw together from stuff in your cupboard & fridge at a moments notice, as long as you have some cooked chicken in the fridge. Here's my Twiglet version, not strictly Paleo or wheat-free but there's so little it won't hurt....

This is my take on a recipe taken fromJamie's Every Day Superfood: a brilliant TV programme & book (would make a great Christmas pressie)  Every recipe he suggests is healthy, low calorie, easy, stashed full of vitamins & minerals, and delicious…
