A regime morning @grayshottspa

A regime morning @grayshottspa . 
Breaking the 5:2 fast with breakfast of spiced cured salmon with avocado and butter bean houmous ( no coffee)! Yummy and super healthy with omega 3 and good fats.

A swim in the indoor pool, a plunge in the very cold but invigorating icy plunge pool after a steam room. All fitted in befire a 16 minute  hydrotherapy bath with Epsom salts which are great for magnesium, detoxification and relaxation.

Lunch is a buternut, chilli and lime soup followed by cold salmon with green baby pea shoots, a walnut dip and a designer swoosh of pureed beetroot. Accompanied with a rainbow mix of vegetables for vits ACE and zinc with their health giving benefits as antioxidants.

Of course digestive bitters and sauerkraut to start to get those digestive juices working for good gut health and a few soaked mixed nuts (and some olives) for their good fats.

So as you can see a Grayshott regime is by no means a starvation diet and there is still a 2 course dinner later after a pilates class.

No grains, no sugar, no milk, 
but simply protein, healthy fats,  vegetables,, fibre, nuts and fermented foods all helping the body to become its optimum best with a healthy functioning gut.

You need to include good fats in your daily diet as they help regulate your metabolism, keep you feeling full longer,  help transport vitamins and minerals around your body, and protect your vital organs.

A low fat diet is not good for you or even helps you to lose weight on a long term basis. But I am only including healthy fats not transfats or saturated fats in fast foods and processed foods.

A quick amd easy healthy Summer lowcarb and protein homecooked meal #courgettes #spaghettibolognese Spiralise the courgettes with your spiraliser

A quick amd easy healthy Summer lowcarb and protein homecooked meal 

Spiralise the courgettes with your spiraliser. My courgettes are homegrown from my veg patch. Very proud! 
Slow cook the beef mince together with chopped onions, garlic, tomato passata and seasoning in a slow cooker for a few hours before you're ready to assemble and eat. The juices should all have reduced so the mince os browned and sauce is reduced and thickened.

Shallow fry the courgettes very quickly in a little olive oil so they remain firm

Add the mince mixture to your serving of courgetti spaghetti and grate a generous portion of Parmesan cheese over the top.
