Nutrition Seminar Series
Manage your Weight and Improve your Health
We will explore the lifestyle habits to follow for weight management and reducing risk of diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. Our dietitian focuses on foods to eat in abundance, the importance of fibre and eating enough protein. This webinar has been developed through a ‘Health at Every Size’ (HAES) lens.
Optimising your Workday with Food
If you are trying to break the cycle of caffeine, eat, nap, repeat then look no further! Learn how to regulate blood sugar and thus experience the endless benefits of sustained energy throughout the workday. We dive into the influence of digestion and specific nutrients on brain health and cognition. And of course, some work-friendly lunch inspiration!
Understanding the gut-brain axis
The gut-brain connection is a wonderfully complex relationship that is yet to be fully understood. Although, much of what we do know relates to gut friendly foods and lifestyle practices. Get ready to learn how to regulate your gut-specific nervous system and fuel your gut-loving bacteria.
Budget-Friendly Foods
One of the biggest misconceptions that relates to diet is that healthy food incurs an extra cost. Health promoting diets take it back to basics such as the Mediterranean diet full of fruit, vegetables, olive oil, legumes and nuts. Luckily, fresh (or frozen) produce and plant based proteins are easy on our wallets too. We explore how to prepare and execute a well balanced, budget friendly supermarket trip.
Functional Foods
Have you ever wondered whether eating a specific food or taking a supplement is really influencing your hair, skin or bones? We break down the evidence behind nutrition and bone, joint, skin and digestive health. No fad diets or skin-boosting supplements to see here, just nutrient-packed meals that taste great too.
Nutrient Spotlight
Your diet is interconnected to immediate and longterm health. Our dietitian highlights key vitamins, minerals and compounds crucial for optimising our physical and mental health and wellbeing. Some of these nutrients you may be familiar with, and others new. Get a pen and paper and prepare to diversify your diet.
