Stop Food Waste Day - the perfect excuse to get a little creative in the kitchen

As a nutritional therapist, I’m all about nourishing your body, but that doesn’t mean everything has to be perfect. In fact, some of the best meals come from the bits we usually overlook:

💚Veg that’s past its best? Make turn them into fibre packed soup
💚Broccoli stalks? Slice them into stir-fries�💚Stale bread? Hello croutons or breadcrumbs�💚Overripe bananas? That’s basically banana bread calling your name�💚Veg peelings? Roast them for a crispy snack (trust me!)

Reducing food waste isn’t just good for the planet, it’s a simple way to save money, stretch your nutrients further, and reconnect with your food.

Today’s challenge: before you shop, check your fridge and build a meal around what’s already there. You might surprise yourself

It’s British Beef Week and we’ve even got BBQ weather ☀️, As a registered nutritional therapist, I’m often asked whether the way animals are raised really makes a difference. The answer is always yes, especially when it comes to grass-fed beef.

Cattle that are raised on a natural, pasture-based diet produce meat that is typically:

• Higher in omega-3 fatty acids (supporting heart and brain health)
• Richer in conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), linked to anti-inflammatory benefits
• A great source of bioavailable iron, zinc, and B vitamins, essential for energy, immunity, and overall wellbeing

Grass-fed systems also tend to support more sustainable farming practices and higher animal welfare standards here in the UK. My go to is in Skipton.

Choosing quality, locally sourced British beef isn’t just about taste, it’s about nourishing your body with nutrient-dense food while supporting our farmers and countryside.

If you include meat in your diet, opting for grass-fed is one simple way to make it count.

As a registered nutritional therapist, I often remind clients that healing isn’t just about what you eat, it’s also about how your body feels.

Your vagus nerve plays a key role in regulating stress, digestion, and overall wellbeing. When it’s supported, you’re more likely to feel calm, balanced, and resilient.

Here are a few simple ways to “reset” and stimulate your vagus nerve naturally:

🤍Slow, deep breathing (try 4–6 breaths per minute)�🤍 Humming or singing (great for vibration + relaxation)�🤍 Cold water on the face or finishing your shower cool�🤍 Gentle movement like walking or yoga
�Mindful eating, sitting down, chewing slowly, and relaxing before meals are all important. These small daily practices can help shift your body out of “fight or flight” and into “rest and digest”, which is where true healing happens.

Remember, consistency over intensity. Start small and notice how your body responds.

🫖Happy National Tea Day🫖

As a registered nutritional therapist, I often recommend simple, soothing ways to support digestion and herbal teas are one of the easiest (and most enjoyable) places to start.

Here are 3 of my go-to digestive teas:

Peppermint Tea�Known for its calming effect on the digestive tract, peppermint can help ease bloating and discomfort after meals.

Ginger Tea�A warming favourite that supports digestion and may help reduce nausea and sluggish digestion.

Fennel Tea�Traditionally used to relieve bloating and support gut motility, great after heavier meals.
Taking a few moments to pause with a cup of tea can also help activate your rest and digest state, so it’s not just what you drink, but how you drink it too.

If you’d like to know what tea might support your specific goals, then why not book a free discovery call with me https://www.victoriamalcolmnutrition.co.uk/

Stress isn’t just about what’s happening around you, what you eat can play a big role in how your body responds too. To mark Stress Awareness Month, I’ll be sharing some of my expertise as a registered nutritional therapist,. I thought it would be useful share some everyday foods that can support stress levels.

Here are 5 foods to include more of:

Avocados - rich in healthy fats and B vitamins, which support brain function and help regulate mood.

Oily fish (like salmon, mackerel, sardines) - high in omega-3 fatty acids, linked to reduced inflammation and improved stress response.

Leafy greens (spinach, kale) - packed with magnesium — a mineral that plays a key role in relaxation and stress regulation.

Nuts & seeds (almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds) - provide magnesium, zinc, and healthy fats to support the nervous system.

Berries (blueberries, strawberries) - loaded with antioxidants to help protect the body from oxidative stress.

The goal isn’t perfection, it’s awareness. Small, consistent changes can make a big difference to how resilient you feel day to day.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, start simple: balance your meals, stay hydrated, and prioritise whole, nourishing foods. If you’d like a copy of my free hormone balancing meal guide, you can download it here https://www.victoriamalcolmnutrition.co.uk

As a registered nutritional therapist, I love celebrating the powerful link between growing your own food and nourishing your body.

You don’t need a big garden, just a few pots, some soil, and a little sunshine…here’s hoping ☀️🤞🏻

Here are some easy, nutrient-packed vegetables that grow brilliantly in the UK:

Spinach – Fast-growing and rich in iron, magnesium, and folate. Perfect for salads, smoothies, or light sautés.

Carrots – Great for containers! High in beta-carotene to support eye health and immunity.

Kale – A true superfood, packed with vitamins A, C, and K. Hardy and thrives in cooler UK weather.

Cherry tomatoes – Easy to grow in pots with plenty of sun. Rich in antioxidants like lycopene.

Peas – Sweet, delicious, and full of plant-based protein and fibre. Great for beginners.

Radishes – One of the quickest crops to grow, ready in just a few weeks! Supports digestion and adds a peppery crunch.

Growing your own veg isn’t just good for your health—it supports gut health, encourages seasonal eating, and reconnects you with your food.

I’ll share some pictured of my ‘crop’ once I harvest. What will you be planting this season?

Stress isn’t just about what’s happening around you, what you eat can play a big role in how your body responds too. To mark Stress Awareness Month, I’ll be sharing some of my expertise. I thought it would be useful to start with sharing some everyday foods may actually increase feelings of stress and anxiety:

1️⃣Caffeine
While a morning coffee can feel like a lifesaver, too much caffeine can raise cortisol levels, disrupt sleep, and leave you feeling more wired than focused.

2️⃣Refined sugar
Sugar spikes energy quickly, but the crash that follows can worsen mood swings, irritability, and fatigue.

3️⃣Highly processed foods
Foods high in additives, refined carbs, and unhealthy fats can contribute to inflammation, which is increasingly linked to poor mental wellbeing.

4️⃣Excess salt
High sodium intake may affect blood pressure and put additional strain on the body, especially during periods of stress.

5️⃣Alcohol
Often used to unwind, but it can interfere with sleep quality and increase anxiety the next day.

The goal isn’t perfection, it’s awareness. Small, consistent changes can make a big difference to how resilient you feel day to day.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, start simple: balance your meals, stay hydrated, and prioritise whole, nourishing foods. If you’d like a copy of my free hormone balancing meal guide, DM me 5DAY

This World Health Day, it’s important to remember that true health starts from within, and that means prioritising your gut.

As a registered nutritional therapist, I see time and time again how gut health plays a central role in overall wellbeing. Your gut isn’t just responsible for digestion, it influences your immune system, hormone balance, energy levels, skin health, and even your mood.

When your gut is supported, your whole body functions better.

Simple daily habits can make a big difference:

• Eating a diverse, fibre-rich diet
• Including fermented foods
• Managing stress levels
• Prioritising sleep
• Staying hydrated

Your body is interconnected, and your gut is at the heart of it all.

This World Health Day, take a moment to check in with your health from the inside out. Small changes today can lead to lasting wellbeing tomorrow.

Easter is a time to enjoy and yes, that includes a chocolate egg 🐣🍫

As a registered nutritional therapist, my approach is simple, everything in moderation… but also remembering that you don’t have to indulge if you don’t want to.

If you do choose chocolate, make it count. Go for the best quality you can, higher cocoa content, fewer additives, and something you’ll truly enjoy and savour.

Eat mindfully, listen to your body, and take the pressure off perfection. Balance looks different for everyone. Wishing you a happy (and satisfying) Easter 🐣🍫
