Eek! Which is it, hunger or appetite?? Hunger is the growling in the stomach but appetite is the desire to eat. Learning the difference can stop you from overeating. #weightloss #snacks #hunger #appetite #nutritionist #dietitian #portion size #mindfuleating

Why noticing your hunger is important!! Hunger is a sense that tells you your body needs nutrients. Ignoring hunger doesn’t make that need go away it just means you body stops doing jobs it doesn’t have the nutrients for. #weightloss #snacks #hunger #nutritionist #dietitian #portionsize #mindfuleating

What the hell is the GI scale? The glycaemic index tells us how quickly a carbohydrate gets digested and enters the bloodstream as blood sugar. Choosing low GI foods helps you feel fuller for longer and avoids sugar spikes. #carbs #bloodsugar #diet #nutritionist #weightloss

Low iron levels? A surprising way to increase the iron content of food is by cooking in a cast iron pan. #vegetarian #vegan #irondeficiency #lowenergy #castiron #homecooking #iron #micronutrients #increaseenergy

What the hell is a refined carbohydrate? When the fibrous part of a carbohydrate is removed you get a refined carb. The opposite of a whole grain! Sugar is the classic, but also white bread, pasta and rice. #wholegrain #carbs #pasta #bread #fibre
