Nutrition

Welcome to May with Enrich! This month we are focusing on a hot topic in the health and wellness space - gut health. Our gut or gastrointestinal system helps our body to digest the food we eat and ensure that beneficial nutrients are absorbed, making it vital for energy production.

With the longer days and the feeling of spring in the air, we can feel our energy begin to naturally increase. Here at Enrich, we are tackling a common question when it comes to eating well – how can I feel more energised, and how does the food I eat affect that? Join us to explore all things calories, carbohydrates and snacking!

In these colder months, it can feel like we are fighting off illness at every turn. Your immune system is your body’s shield against colds, flus and all kinds of infections, and there is an undeniable connection to what is on your plate. Eating a well-balanced diet is one of the best things you can do to keep your defences strong. Join Enrich this month to learn all about the immune system and get some practical tips for eating to bolster wellbeing.

Your heart is a tireless organ, keeping you alive and well for all of life’s ups and downs. Here at Enrich, we want to help you to nurture your heart’s health through mindful and conscious choices, as the food we eat plays a pivotal role in its wellbeing.

Welcome to 2024 with Enrich! As we start off the year, we want to begin by talking about how to bring a sense of balance into our diets. At this time of year there can be a lot of pressure to "get back on track", with restrictive diet plans everywhere. We believe that getting the basics right can go a long way to helping us feel happy, healthy and at our best, with no need to drastically change the way we eat in an unsustainable way.

One of the best ways to ensure your body is well-balanced is by looking after your gut health. Optimal gut health can support our digestion, increase nutrient absorption from food, and support our immune system, making it invaluable in supporting our overall wellness. Consuming fermented foods, such as sourdough bread, is an excellent way to increase the variety of beneficial bacteria in your gut. Here are some top tips on how to begin fermenting your very own sourdough starter.
