Nourishing yourself doesn’t have to be complicated!
Today’s colourful bowl brings together sushi rice, sautéed prawns, courgettes, pak choi, avocado, sesame seeds, wakame seaweed sprinkles and juicy pomegranate seeds.
Simple, quick and full of goodness! ✨
💚 Why I love this combination for gut health & midlife wellbeing:
🥑 Avocado for fibre & healthy fats. Supports digestive health, provides monounsaturated fats that support overall health.
🌱 Plant diversity for your gut microbiome: Courgettes, pak choi, pomegranate and avocado contribute to fibre and a variety of nutrients to support a healthy gut environment (feed your microbiome)
🍤 Protein for muscle health: Prawns provide protein to help maintain muscle mass, an important consideration as we move through perimenopause and beyond.
🥬 Greens & sea vegetables: Pok choi and wakame add a range of micronutrients. Seaweed can be high in iodine, so enjoy it in moderation, particularly if you have thyroid concerns.
✨ A little reminder for perimenopause: Hormonal changes can influence digestion, bloating and bowel habits. While no single food can balance your hormones, a varied diet rich in fibre, adequate protein and healthy fats can help support your overall health.
It's all about building simple, nourishing habits that help you feel your best. 🌸
💚 Save this bowl for your next quick lunch!
