Get Gut Healthy

02/05/2023

You can spend hours slaving away in the kitchen to make a healthy meal, or just use my motto of ❗️Keep It Simple Stupid ❗️This meal would take me no more than 15 minutes to make, and being a 2 ingredient starch veg combo it’s easy to digest and great for the gut micro biome too! 💯

Mangoes are sweet and full of flavour at the moment so my go to breakfast right now is a big bowl of chopped nanas and mango 🍌🥭 Did you know our poo is 75% water so any food we eat

There is something beyond eating a breakfast like this that’s just ‘making an effort to eat healthy’
-
It’s a deeper connection with self.
It’s aligning with what our body really needs.
It’s laying aside societal expectations of what’s ‘normal’ to properly nourish ourselves.
-
Food isn’t everything but it has been pivotal in recovering my own health after 7 years of debilitating Crohn’s disease, and it can be for you too

☀️IM BACK! ☀️
Been busy this year building a greenhouse and getting into growing beautiful food with Alice, exploring new nature spots, racing my bike…
-
…but most importantly still free from Crohn’s no symptoms no inflammation no meds for coming up on 4 years. The healthiest fittest and strongest I’ve ever felt. Consistency with eating whole plant foods, hydration, sleep, mindset, covering off the fundamentals keeps me on track. 🍉 ☀️ 💧
-
I’ve really missed not being active on Instagram and interacting with you all on here this year, but looking forward to being more active, sharing more tips and testimonials because the power of lifestyle change to have a dramatically positive effect on our health and well-being needs to be heard far and wide! 🌱

5 years ago I started experimenting with fruit for breakfast and boy have I come a long way since then!!
———
I started out with a cheap blender which kept leaking all over the kitchen and I suffered some gas and uncomfortable digestion (my microbiome hadn’t yet adjusted to eating more fibre) but I KEPT GOING! 🍌🍒🥭
———
In time as I got a better blender and my body got used to eating more fruit I started to love it, and CRAVE more of the same 🙌
———
5 years on I’m still eating fruit for breakfast and STILL DISCOVERING amazing new flavour combinations like this strawberry blueberry smoothie bowl 🥄
———
If what you’re doing right now isn’t working out for you I encourage you to switch your breakfast to fruit for a month and feel the amazing benefits 🍓🍑🥝

Sometimes it can feel like we are chasing happiness, thinking to ourselves when ‘x’ happens then I’ll be happy or when I buy ‘y’ then everything will be good 🤑
———
What if we could, even just for a moment, slip into the present moment? 🌱
———
Giving our attention to the air passing in and out of our body. Taking in our surroundings with a child-like curiosity and awe. Giving thanks for all that enriches our life. ☀️
———
Today I’m grateful for my bicycle for all the miles of smiles it’s given me 😁 How about you?

😋 EAT UNTIL SATIATION 😋
———
When we are eating whole natural foods, apart from it being great news for our gut health, we don’t need to carefully regulate portions. Eat as much as you care for until you are full 🤩
———
Our bodies are self regulating when we eat natural foods! We have both volume and nutrient receptors which turn off appetite 🍉🥦🥕
———
Bypassing these receptors by removing the fibre, adding salt, adding oil, adding condiments (the standard American diet) and suddenly you have a recipe for dysbiosis, IBD flare ups, weight gain and chronic disease ❌
———
That’s no fun, right??
———
Achieving health by healthful means just makes sense. It enabled me to get off meds to heal up my Crohn’s and it can help you too!
———

This summer I’ve had the pleasure of spending a lot of time in other people’s orchards getting inspiration for my own future fruit orchard 🍐
———
Playing a part in the growing process makes the final result, the fresh organic tree ripened fruits, taste all the more sweet 😋

What’s your favourite fresh local summer fruit? 🍓🍏🍒

💉 Why I stopped taking Crohn’s disease medication 💊

Would you like to take medication for the rest of your life? After 7 years of non stop Crohns disease medication, side effects and flares I certainly didn't!...
