Blood flow within the hearts of those eating low carb diets was compared to those eating plant-based diets.

 

RECIPE: Mango & Mixed Berry Smoothie

I was recently looking through my favourited tweets and came across this smoothie recipe from UFC fighter Mac Danzig. Now, I don't have the first clue about UFC but came across Mac (as I do with a lot of folk) on the Rich Roll podcast, and he seems a real good dude. Check him out, he's cool and so is this recipe inspired by him.

Ingredients

3 bananas
10 dates
4 cups frozen mango
2 cups frozen mixed berries (or any berry of choice)
1 litre water

Optional: Add 4 cups of chopped kale or spinach

1. Add ingredients to the blender and fire away!

RECIPE: Millet & Chickpea Salad

Millet, grown in Asia and Africa for thousands of years was one of the first cereals to be cultivated by mankind. A highly nutritious grain that is high in protein, containing all eight amino acids and one of only a few alkaline-forming grains, helping counteract over-acidity in the stomach and joints. Also, it's anti-fungal and anti-mucus properties aid to prevent ailments such as candida and premenstrual discomfort. 

Chickpeas aid the absorption of nutrients and are good for digestive health. They also support the functions of nerves and muscles in the body as well as helping to stabilise blood sugar.

Carrots help you see in the dark!
