Making your life greener - one bite at a time.

Cereal grains are a great source of antioxidants - look for organic whole grains, wheat and oat based products, which have a higher antioxidant content than those containing refined rice or corn ingredients. Blueberries and blackberries are also an easy way to add antioxidants to your morning meal; any berry will give you a fix, but these are the best

as they help prevent cancer and heart disease. Frozen berries can also be added to organic yoghurt and honey for a delicious and healthy smoothie, alternatively try adding antioxidant-packed goji berries - they've got more beta-carotene than carrots, contain a complete spectrum of antioxidants and 500 times more vitamin C than oranges.

Virgin Coconut Oil goes very well in shakes and smoothies. Try it with banana + berries of choice, natural bio yogurt, sprinkle of organic vanilla powder and chia seeds, and just sufficient organic milk of choice / fruit juice to blend.

Wherever possible be sure to use organic local ingredients. Let your imagination run riot and have fun!
