A few words from Janet - I'm Back!
|
I'm back from my stay in France doing volunteer work during yoga teacher training courses. It was satisfying to be part of the team cooking for over 100 people in the mornings and also using my computer & people skills teaching, being in the office, boutique and at reception. I still had time to develop my own personal yoga practice and attend the workshops and presentations given by visiting speakers. One of the guest speakers was Annika Waldmann, a vegetarian nutritional scientist from the University of Luebeck, Germany. She gave us clear evidence about the health benefits for being a vegetarian, which include low rates of obesity, coronary heart disease, diabetes and many cancers. And, she left us some valuable pieces of advice to maintain a balanced diet as a vegetarian to ensure we enjoy the health benefits. So, in this issue's article, I'll be sharing one of my favourite tips from her talk to bring you health and beauty this summer and more. Read on to find out more. Enjoy!

Client's Coaching - Colours for Summer Health
Recently I had the opportunity to hear clear scientific evidence about the health benefits for being a vegetarian from a vegetarian nutritional scientist, Dr Annika Waldmann from the University of Luebeck. The benefits include low rates of obesity, coronary heart disease, diabetes and many cancers. Dr Waldmann also left us some valuable pieces of advice to maintain a balanced diet as a vegetarian to ensure we enjoy the health benefits. In the summer it’s much easier to eat healthy food. We tend to eat lighter meals especially more salads and fruits and it’s a good opportunity to add more wholefoods to your diet since they are plentiful and in season. So, let me share with you one of my favourite tips from her presentations to help you maintain balance and beauty this summer. See red, yellow and green daily! Green vegetables are important, especially leafy vegetables, because they are filled with However, while it's good to have lots of green leafy vegetables, it's lovely to enjoy the colour that summer offers. A plethora of vitamins and minerals, and especially phytochemicals which serve as colouring agents and antibodies, regulate growing, and provide protection, are also easily accesible at this time. Make the most of the variety of different coloured fruits and vegetables available to you locally this summer. Each day look out for the traffic light STOP to include Red from, for example cranberries, raspberries, red onions, red potatoes, red radishes, strawberries, tomatoes, watermelon, pink grapefruit, grapes, peppers and apples . WAIT and add Yellow from citrus fruits and juices, onions, apples, carrots, sweet potato, cantaloupe, apricots, papayas, peaches, oranges, corn, tangerines and nectarines. GO straight for Green with, for example spinach, collard greens, kale, broccoli , celery, lettuce, parsley, bell peppers, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, hot peppers, thyme, chives, leeks and shallots.
