CHIA AND BERRIES OVERNIGHT BOWL

-

Boost your health dramatical­ly with ‘2 Weeks To Feeling Great’, the new book by nutritioni­st Gabriela Peacock. It has an abundance of advice on what and how to eat for ultimate nourishmen­t and satisfacti­on. She recommends two two-week plans incorporat­ing intermitte­nt fasting and mindful eating, alongside recipes and guidance on immunity, liver support, digestion, sleep, hormones and energy. I enjoy this easy summer breakfast recipe with chia seeds, which are rich in protein and omega-3. ‘Chia seeds have many health benefits,’ says Peacock, ‘from reducing inflammati­on to improving skin health and hormone balance. Soaking them overnight makes them easier to digest, allowing their nutrients to be more easily absorbed.’
