• NUTRIENT DENSE • When preparing or consuming food do you look at the nutritional density of it? This essentially means how full of ‘good stuff’ is what your about to eat? For example, a good smoothie is more nutrient dense than a processed fruit juice, soft drink or thick shake, as is a roast vegetable salad to a Vegemite sandwich. What we eat has different energy values but is also of different ‘nourishing’ levels to us. A chocolate bar is energy dense but not nutrient dense, whereas an avocado is each of these. Make sure especially over these winter months when you’re vitamin D levels may be lower as with your desire to eat salad may be, you’re considering nutrient density with your food choices to keep your health and immunity on track. #nutrients #fridayfacts #nourish #foodisfuel

• WHICH IS YOUR FAVE? • Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter - I’m sure some would argue you could almost liken them to the four seasons to a woman’s cycle, but I’d disagree 😉. We all have one season we love more than the others, I think there’s positives about all of them and your fave season may vary depending where you live & your actual experience of each season based on geographical location (for example Pilbara winters ROCK!). So I want to see how they rate in your books. Use an emoji to comment below showing how you feel about or what you relate to each season. Me?

• WINTER FEELS • We’re lucky enough to live somewhere with an AMAZING winter compared to other parts of Australia. In saying that it doesn’t mean we’re exempt from little ones spreading the love aka germs. Thanks to @eukybearaustralia we’ve been making the most of the natural vaporizer to help fight the sniffles the past week and the chest rub has jumped in our suitcase and come along with us on our wintery escape. Fingers crossed we come back a full bill of health! #eukybearaustralia #naturalhealth #coldandfluseason #sniffles #snuggles
• ALWAYS A HIT • Fruit platters; they’re always a hit and almost a staple item at morning, brunches or afternoon teas. Next time you’re assigned the fruit platter why not jazz it up a bit by adding some ‘eyeball’ delights such as a pretty pink pomegranate, some cleverly cut kiwis 🥝 and maybe even some dark chocolate. All fruit featured on my yummy platter is courtesy of @foodfanaticspilbara minus the pomegranate and kiwi. #fruitplatter #freshfruit #allthecolour
