‘WHAT healthy living MEANS TO ME’
NUTRITIONIST AMELIA PHILLIPS EXPLAINS WHY SHE’S PASSIONATE ABOUT SHARING HER MESSAGE
As a nutritionist and exercise scientist, Amelia Phillips has helped countless women to look and feel their very best. And with four children under 5, she also knows a thing or two about juggling a healthy lifestyle as a busy mum!
“The impact on the quality of life is what keeps me so passionate about health and nutrition,” Amelia says. “The results I’ve witnessed keeps me passionate, and now that I am a mum, I want to pass this gift onto my kids.”
Now she’s bringing that wealth of experience to readers, as part of a special collaboration between New Idea and Isowhey. The event, which will be held on February 18, will include a restorative yoga flow session with Flow Athletic co-founder Kate Kendall, and inspiring discussions from a panel speakers that will also include mindset coach Turia Pitt and
New Idea editor, Rebecca Hyde. Here, Amelia shares her healthy living philosophy!
HOW HAS THE MESSAGING AROUND DIET CHANGED OVER THE YEARS?
What I love about the changes in messaging is that the focus is less on the numbers on the scales and more on the health halo. At Isowhey for example, we focus on the MEDS principle (mindfulness, exercise, diet and sleep) because we know that longterm weight management and health requires all of those health segments to be working well.
WHAT ARE SOME SIMPLE WAYS TO REDUCE CALORIES?
Switching out one meal per day to a mini meal, such as a meal-replacement shake is a great way to keep our daily calories at their ideal level. Portion sizes have increased so much over the past three decades that it’s almost impossible not to overeat!
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO BECOME INVOLVED WITH ISOWHEY?
Isowhey has been a trusted weight management partner for over 18 years, with so much research behind their formulations and protocols. They are Australian owned and manufactured, and source only the highest-quality ingredients. And, of course, all their shakes taste amazing!
