Let’s talk polyphenols!

Polyphenols are naturally occurring plant compounds found in a wide range of everyday foods and drinks — from berries and plums to coffee, tea, legumes, olives and dark chocolate. 🍓☕️🫒

There are thousands of different polyphenols, and they can be grouped into several categories based on their structure.

The good news? You don’t need to focus on a specific type, eating a varied, plant-rich diet is a great way to get a wide range of polyphenols.

Try adding more colour and variety to your meals by including different fruits, vegetables, wholegrains, legumes, herbs, spices, tea and coffee throughout the day.

Why should sardines be on your plate? 🐟

Small but mighty, sardines are a nutritional powerhouse! They’re packed with protein, omega-3 fats, calcium, vitamin B12 and vitamin D, all from one simple food.

And because sardines are small oily fish, they are also lower on the food chain, meaning they generally contain lower levels of mercury than larger predatory fish.

They’re also affordable, convenient and require minimal preparation, making them a great pantry staple. Try adding sardines to toast, salads, pasta, rice bowls or crackers for an easy nutrition boost.

A little fish with a LOT of nutrition!

Did you know? Fibre does so much more than just support regular bowel movements!

Getting enough fibre each day can:
- Help lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol
- Support more stable blood sugar levels
- Feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut, helping to keep your gut microbiome healthy
- Keep you feeling fuller for longer, which may help with appetite regulation
-
The recommended intake for Australian adults is:
🥣 25g/day for women
🥣 30g/day for men

Simple ways to boost your fibre intake include:
- Fill half your plate with vegetables.
- Choose whole fruit instead of juice.
- Swap to wholegrain bread, pasta and cereals.
- Add beans, lentils or chickpeas to meals.
- Include nuts and seeds if suitable for your dietary needs.

A small increase each day can make a big difference. If you’re increasing your fibre intake, remember to do it gradually and drink plenty of water to help your digestive system adjust.

Has protein gone too far?

Walk through any supermarket and you’ll notice it... High-protein labels are everywhere. From cheese and yoghurt to cereal, popcorn and even water, it can feel like we all need more protein.

But here’s the thing:
Protein is an essential nutrient, and some people do benefit from higher protein intakes, including older adults, athletes, and those recovering from illness or injury. However, for many healthy adults, daily protein needs can be met through a balanced diet.

A “high protein” label doesn’t automatically mean a product is significantly higher in protein—or that it’s the healthier choice. As you’ve seen in this post, some products differ by only a small amount of protein per 100 g, despite the prominent marketing on the front of the pack.

🛒 Next time you’re shopping, remember to:
- Compare products per 100 g
- Read the nutrition information panel, not just the front-of-pack claims
- Consider the whole nutrition profile, including fibre, saturated fat and sodium
- Choose foods that suit your health goals, preferences and budget

At the end of the day, it’s your overall eating pattern that has the biggest impact on your health—not whether every food has a “high protein” label.

Myth: All processed foods are bad for you.

The truth? Processing exists on a spectrum.

Many foods we eat every day, like milk, yoghurt, frozen vegetables, canned beans and wholegrain bread are processed, but they’re also nutritious staples that can support a healthy diet.

Rather than avoiding all processed foods, focus on:
🥦 Eating mostly whole and minimally processed foods
🌾 Choosing processed foods that are high in fibre and lower in added sugar, saturated fat and sodium
🍽️ Remembering that no single food makes or breaks a healthy eating pattern

Healthy eating is about the overall quality of your diet, not whether a food has been processed.
