Make time for exercise

Make an ‘appointment’ for yourself to fulfil on your exercise commitments in the same way you would make an appointment with the dentist and keep it.

Go soluble.

Soluble fibres are key to digestive health. They’re rich in oats, chia and raw or steam-fried vegetables, as well as beans. Make sure you eat some today.

How much water are you drinking?

You need the equivalent of 8 glasses a day, including what you use in hot drinks. That’s about 1 litre. Get a litre bottle and fill it up. Make sure you drink this today.

Are you resisting?

Resistant starches feed the healthy bacteria in your gut. These are rich in jerusalem artichokes, garlic, leeks and onions – in that order, asparagus, cashew nuts, oats, chicory, green bananas, peas, beans and lentils. Make sure you eat some today.

Eat raw and natural

Almost any food process will cause nutrient losses. Think about what you buy. Could you have picked it out of the ground, a tree of a bush? If it’s fake food don’t eat it. You become what you eat.

Take good care of your teeth.

Dental hygiene is a dementia risk reducer. Have you brushed your teeth today, morning and evening? Have your flossed, if not today, this week? if you haven’t, make today the day.

Further info

Chew your food.

Your stomach doesn’t have teeth. Make an intention today to eat mindfully. Chew your food well, eat slowly and enjoy every mouthful. Stop as soon as you are full.

Are you being bugged?

We all need, and depend on beneficial bacteria. They live in our intestines and are a first line of defence against undesirable bugs. A great way to reinoculate your microbiome is to take a probiotic supplement containing Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Bifidobacteria daily for a week. Keep them in the fridge to use if you ever drink too much alcohol, get a gut infection or have a course of antibiotics.

Make today a wheat-free day.

Instead of wheat-based cereals have oats. Instead of bread have oat cakes. Instead of pasta have rice. Stay away from wheat. If you’ve blown it already, do this tomorrow.
