Top 10 Tips To Get Summer Ready

We caught up with mega babe Madeleine Shaw (Millie Mackintosh’s nutritionist don't you know) to find out her top tips for getting summer ready - and don't worry, all of these are quick and easy to achieve...

1) Keep your food exciting - simple combinations can really help to bring your food to life. I love adding spices and herbs to my food. At the moment I’m obsessed with stir frying pak choi with ginger, tamari, and sautéing purple sprouting broccoli with garlic and anchovies

2) Simple food swaps are a great way to get you looking and feeling great for summer. For instance, you can chop cauliflower into chunks and pulse for a quicker and healthier alternative to rice; change white sugar for coconut sugar; swap sliced bread for rye and my favourite is to try courgette ribbons in place of pasta

3) Drinking green smoothies packed full of veg is a easy way of getting all your essential nutrients. I find Savse Super Green is the perfect, convenient health boost when I’m running to my next pilates class and it tastes just as good as a homemade smoothie.

4) My ethos is that I only eat foods you can grow, raise or hunt and sticking to whole, un-processed, seasonal and local foods. They provide you with much more energy and help to stop the sugar craving cycle!

5) Stress management is key - do yoga, breathing exercises and try mediation to help you relax. This is guaranteed to leave you feeling calm and get your skin glowing!

6) Healthy fats do magic for your skin - I find cooking with coconut oil an easy way to get more healthy fat into my diet

7) Try and take ten minutes for yourself every day, away from phones and distractions

8) To curb those cravings when you’re busy and on the go, start the day with a big breakfast (salmon and eggs are always a winner). Snacks I make to carry around with me are: Walnut stuffed dates and boiled eggs rolled in sesame seeds. Tamari smoked seeds are great to munch on and a great energy boost

9) Be prepared – keep healthy ingredients like smoked mackerel and eggs in the fridge so you don’t turn to that Chinese takeaway at the end of hard day at work

10) Swap cooking with olive oil and butter for coconut oil. It’s so good for you; I use it for everything from cooking to removing stubborn eye make-up

Madeleine Shaw is working with 100% natural, 100% tasty cold-pressed smoothie brand Savse to spread the word that it’s easier than ever to ‘Health Yourself’, through simple nutritional, diet and health tips.
