“Eating for a Healthy Brain” is one of the best things we can do for overall longevity. It is all about focusing on a few key wholefood staples that are seen to increase brain function, improve memory and focus.
• Start the day right with Brain Food Granola or Matcha Pistachio Creamy Oats • Never eat a boring lunch again with Avocado, Strawberry and Chickpea Salad or Nutty Orange Slaw with Smoky Walnuts • End the day with the hearty nourishment of Creamy Arrabbiata Beans or Sesame-Crusted Tofu Noodle Salad with Satay Sauce
Food can be a huge factor in our mental health and maintaining a Happy Mind. The gut and brain are connected via the happy hormone serotonin, and there are many foods that nourish that link.
• Bring fun and colour to the table with Rainbow Wraps or Tofu-Halloumi Glow Bowls • Embrace abundance with One-Pan Courgette Lasagne or Crispy Cauliflower Nuggets with Tzatziki • Pursue pleasure with Chocolate Banoffee Caramel Slices or Pear and Walnut Streusel Muffins
