ENERGY & VITALITY FOR THE NEW YEAR!

January 1st marks the end of the party season and it’s the time to really test your resolve when it comes those all-important lifestyle changes that you’ve vowed to put into practice.

To keep you focused on your goals (and recover from all those festive soirees) The Nutri Centre presents an energy-boosting plan that will help you hit the ground running this New Year. Step 1: Rehydration Nutri Centre nutritionist, Shona Wilkinson says, “during the party season, it’s easy to become dehydrated. Topping up your water intake is essential to help boost energy and vitality and get you back on track for the New Year.” Nutri Centre Top Tip: • Viridian Rhodiola Rosea (£7.10 for 30 capsules) This anti-stress herb helps the body adapt to certain stressors, whether they are physical, mental or environmental. By helping the body to reduce stress, rhodiola lends support to the immune system – helping to keep you fighting fit. Step 2: Get eating A healthy, balanced diet is essential to keep energy levels optimal. Nutri Centre nutritionist, Carmel McLoughlin says, “Porridge is a good breakfast to get you set up for the day. A good idea is to sprinkle some nuts on the top, as combining a carbohydrate with a protein will give you an extra energy boost. Another great, energy-boosting option would be scrambled egg on toast”. Nutri Centre Top Tip: • Fushi Wellbeing Energiplex (£12.95 for 25 capsules) provides an instant energy boost for active lifestyles and is free from caffeine. The formula works to help your metabolism to process carbohydrates, protein and fats to convert them into effective energy. Step 3: Beat the blues January is often a difficult month and in the aftermath of Christmas, it is easy to get bogged back down in work, stress and fatigue. Emotional Freedom Therapist, Kimberley Trevett says, “Financial and weight worries are two of the most common stressors for women and after Christmas, you could be thinking about them even more. It’s important to stay positive and take the time to make some affirmations which remind you of all the great things you have going on with your life at this time too.” Nutri Centre Top Tip: • Solgar ‘Sunshine in a Box’ (£25) contains three fantastic ‘feel good’ essentials, 5-HTP, Rhodiola and Vitamin D3 600iu. 5HTP and Rhodiola are fantastic mood boosters and Vitamin D will provide you with a little slice of sunshine until the clouds lift in the spring. -ENDS- For more information, contact Carolanne Bamford or Emma Metcalf at CCD Public Relations on 020 7434 4100 carolanne@ccdpr.com / emma@ccdpr.com
