1. Start your day…
…drinking a big glass of water, even a glass of lukewarm water with a some freshly squeezed lemon juice in it. Also try a daily probiotic or even a green juice.
2. For your lunch or dinner…
…add mushrooms to your meals. Mushrooms are great immune system enhancers. The rainy season in Cyprus means a lot of mushroom varieties in METRO!
3. Go alkaline...
… such as parsley, kale, pears and lemons. Alkaline foods, balance body’s pH levels, reduce inflammation and keep blood sugar levels under control.
4. Your dinner should be…
…. light. Aim to consume fewer calories. Soup is ideal as it helps you feel satisfied with fewer calories and at the same time you go to bed without feeling too full. Also, you can wake up in the morning hungry for the most important meal of the day, breakfast!
5. Before you sleep…
…take magnesium supplements or otherwise, opt for magnesium-rich foods such as pumpkin seeds or almonds. Magnesium helps your body cope with the stress overload from the holiday season.
