Interesting read....

Your gray hair might be saving your life right now. Scientists just discovered something incredible about those silver strands that changes everything we thought we knew about aging. Turns out, going gray could be one of the smartest things your body does to protect you from cancer. Wait until you hear what researchers found hiding in those pigment cells.

Have you tried Biltong?

It is such a great and healthy snack!
Biltong originates from Southern Africa and is a form of air-dried, cured meat from beef or venison.

I recently had the pleasure of trying the real stuff! A South African friend of mine made me Biltong the original way. He advised me to buy rump steak, so I got a nice piece from my local butchers. He first seasoned the meat, left it to cure a few hours and then airdried 5 days. It was absolutely gorgeous and will definitely ask him to prepare another batch for me. It is the perfect snack during the day - pure protein!

I have also come across Biltong in supermarkets, butchers and Health Food shops. There are many brands out there! Try to avoid the brands with high amounts of sugar, preservatives and artificial ingredients. You deserve the best!

I can recommend Wild Chips from Wildman currently in Sweden and Original Biltong Beef Snack from From Our Farm.

I am checking with Wildman if they have any outlets in the UK. 😊

What are my main takings from the WildFit challenge you may ask. I would like to highlight three things!

1. I drink much more WATER on a daily basis – 6 to 8 glasses per day

Water is life! The body needs natural water as tea, vegetables and fruit don’t provide the body with enough water. We need water to flush out toxins and stay hydrated. I alternate drinking cold and warm water. I have a flask of water in the car, which reminds me to drink and so easy to do when sitting in queues or at traffic lights. I’ve gone from having been really bad at drinking water to managing 6 to 8 glasses per day and that feels GREAT!

2. Before I buy a product, I will always read the list of ingredients

I’ve been hit with the reality that so many products out on the market contain SUGAR. Some products that are being marketed as “healthy” can actually be the right opposite, especially energy bars.

3. I’ve expanded my range of VEGETABLES and fresh HERBS

I wasn’t a fan of Brussel sprouts as a vegetable before - guess it was down to a bad childhood memory - however in a stir fry together with other veggies it’s delicious. Brussel sprouts and asparagus are very good to cleansing the liver.
I wasn’t a fan of hot food earlier, however adding a mild Chili Pepper to dishes is really exciting and gives the dish a different dept. Chili Peppers have many health benefits including boosting your immune system.
I love including fresh herbs in my dishes and salads. I've expanded to using even more; tarragon, basil, parsley and coriander are always in my fridge today – all of which have many health benefits! In my garden, I can also harvest rosemary, fennel, lovage, thyme, oregano and mint which feels so special!

Life feels very good! 😍

I like to share a special food journey that I’m currently enjoying. It began when I seriously wanted to change my diet and get rid of my tummy – which is easier said than done especially being over 55 😊
This food journey has changed my life in several ways. I’ve not only lost inches and kilos, but my skin has also become smooth and soft again after years of dry, sensitive skin and rashes. My energy levels have furthermore increased and so has my sleep. This is all thanks to the guided journey of changing one’s eating habits, cleansing the body from toxins and building a new healthy you!
