The World Health Organisation estimates that upwards of 70% of doctors’ visits are for stress-related issues. Stress is considered to be directly or indirectly responsible for many diseases of the cardiovascular, reproductive, digestive, and respiratory systems.
Back to School!
It’s back to school time around the country. The uniforms are out, the school bags are heaving and the kids are getting up and out earlier. It’s a great time of year to reassess, to get back into a healthy routine and to kick another school year off the way you mean to go on. As each year passes, school work becomes more demanding on our little ones, not to mention the plethora of after school activities. We want to keep our kids happy, healthy and energised so that they have all the ingredients for a productive and fun day at school. This week, Glenville Nutrition gave a healthy lunchbox demo in Donnybrook Fair Cookery School to help fill those mouths with tasty but healthy food all day. Glenville Nutrition also featured in the Irish Examiner with some of her top tips for school.
National Fertility Week – Top Tips for Fertility
Eggs and sperm, like all of your cells, are made from the nutrients found in the foods you eat. There is ever-increasing evidence to support the importance of good nutrition for fertility. Crucial nutrients such as zinc, selenium and essential fatty acids, often lacking in today’s diets, are vital to optimise sperm and egg quality.
Quality Fruits and Vegetables for Sperm Health
Quality Fruits and Vegetables for Sperm Health
Antioxidants are required to protect both the vulnerable outer layer of sperm and the precious package of DNA it is carrying. Here at Glenville Nutrition we recommended eating at least 5 portions of vegetables per day and 2 portions of fruit to obtain a wide array of antioxidants and important vitamins and minerals necessary for sperm health. Not only that, but eating 5 or more portions of vegetables per day decreases risk for all-causes of death so the benefits are wide ranging.
IHS Cookery Day – Vietnamese Spring Roll Recipe
We had a great day on Sunday cooking for the IHS students at Donnybrook Fair Cookery School. We love cooking at this great venue and 30 eager enthusiastic future dietary counsellors and nutritionists were there bright and early and ALL day long! In total we cooked up 18 dishes, which everyone got to taste. We started with sugar-free (and I mean honey/ maple syrup/ agave free too!) granola, went on to Asian noodle salads, Vietnamese spring rolls, Mexican style quinoa salad (all gluten, dairy, egg free) and many more in between. Sweet treats included homemade probiotic coconut yoghurt with a pomegranate and pineapple ‘salad’ and a delicious berry icecream.
