Eat like a vegetarian for
better health
If you want to be healthier and slimmer, eat a plant-based diet. New
research published in the New England Journal of Medicine puts some
proof into the theory that a plant based Mediterranean type diet is the best
way to eat. In fact data from the study shows that a high plant based diet,
supplemented with virgin olive oil and nuts can lower your chance of a
heart attack or stroke by 30%. Eat like a vegetarian, but don't give up your
meat. Meat supplies important protein, zinc and vitamin B12. It's not the
absence of meat that makes a vegetarian diet healthier, it's the high intake
of vegetables and the inclusion of healthy fats.

Winter Skincare
Nourish yourself from the inside to help
keep your complexion glowing and
radiant. If you suffer from dry or itchy
skin in winter, remember to back up
your skin care regime with some good
nutritional supplements. Remember to
drink plenty of water, herbal teas and
soups to stay hydrated. Low humidity in
winter or air-conditioning can dry your
skin. Skin cells require a good balance
of fats or oils to stay healthy. Omega 3's
will help provide your skin with essential
fats to keep your skin smooth and less
prone to dryness. Protein in the diet is
essential for cell repair and renewal. Whey
protein will not only help nourish your skin
from the inside out, it will help keep your
energy levels more stable throughout the
day. Take a multivitamin that contains
beta-carotene and vitamin C. Vitamin C
is an antioxidant that participates in the
production of collagen and is a popular
addition to many skincare products.
