FIFTEEN WAYS TO EAT MORE HEALTHILY

Cutting back on sugar in your diet is a great place to start in an effort to be healthier. Ditch the sugar in your tea and go for a natural sweetener, such as stevia or xylitol!

Chia seeds are a great bulking agent. They swell in water, making them ideal for adding to smoothies or shakes. They are also rich in fibre and high in protein, making you feel fuller for longer.

Going dairy-free can be really beneficial to your health. We recommend using plant-based milks as an alternative. They carry a range of health benefits including being a good source of vitamins and minerals.

White, refined carbohydrates have the fibre and bran removed. It’s always best to eat wholegrain, whenever you can to ensure that you are getting the healthy parts of the grain including the protein, fibre, vitamins and minerals.

Going meat-free can save you lots of money, is better for the environment and your health. Substitute meat with vegetables, pulses or meat alternatives! If you can’t give up the bacon for good, we recommend having one meat-free day a week.

Too much salt is bad for you. Lower your salt intake by swapping to our low salt alternatives. Our low, low salt stock cubes contain lots of flavour, with much less salt!
