Protein

An essential nutrient and part of every cell in our body. It contributes to growth in muscle mass and the maintenance of muscle and normal bones.

The amount of protein you need per day depends on several factors. We can give you advice about your personal protein needs

2. Vitamins & Minerals

These are essential nutrients and the majority of them are not produced by our body. They help support our immune system, reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Many minerals have structural roles in the body too, like calcium and magnesium.

3. Healthy Fats

Your body requires small amounts of fats in order to function properly. Choose unsaturated fats as they are required for normal functioning of our vision, brain and heart.

Omega 3 also helps maintain normal blood pressure and normal blood triglyceride levels.

4. Fibre

Fibre is a type of (indigestible) carbohydrate. It is essential for our digestive system and can help reduce blood cholesterol levels. There are 2 types of fibre: soluble and insoluble.

Adults should aim to consume 30g of fibre per day. Yet research shows that most people do not reach this daily recommendation.

5. Phytonutrients

The pigments that give fruit and vegetables their beautiful colours are naturally-occurring plant compounds known as phytonutrients.

Many act as antioxidants that help to protect against cell and tissue damage.

6. Hydration

The human body is 60% water and most of the chemical reactions in the body need water in order to be conducted. It also contributes to normal regulation of the body’s temperature and normal physical functions.

It’s recommended to drink at least 2 litres of water per day.
