Diet tips

Avocado lowers cholesterol and promotes supple skin. Mash it with lemon & salt for tangy guacamole or add slices of it to a salad.

Add purple foods to your diet. Eating one or more cups of blueberries every day improve communication between brain cells, thus enhancing your memory.

A regular helping of raw or lightly cooked broccoli can lower your risk of heart disease, stroke & cataract, protect you against breast cancer & prevent anaemia.


Chew on pumpkin seeds. Apart from being a good source of magnesium, it helps clear a muddled head and lift a bad mood.

Eat a little healthy fat, like a handful of walnuts, about 20 minutes before a meal. It will take the edge off, so you won't be tempted to overeat.

Increase the intake of bitter gourd in your diet. Rich in vitamin A, B1, B2 and C, it purifies your blood tissues, enhances digestion and stimulates the liver.

Nibble on low-fat, healthy snacks through the day. It'll keep you full & help curb the temptation to over-indulge when you're out socialising.
