I’m a non-practicing Nutritionist, working in Digital and Social Media. You’ll usually find me messy hair, coffee in hand, petting my dogs. Gogi berries are said to be one of the most powerful plants in herbal medicine, going all the way back to ancient Traditional Tibetan medicine and Traditional Chinese medicine, where they used the berries to treat a wide range of ailments. This is quite different to the way we know them now. We have come to know gogi berries as a dried up fruit which are added into smoothies, energy bars or eaten by themselves as a snack. Whitens Teeth Activated charcoal has the ability to absorb tan nins ( naturally occurring substances which can cause yellowing or discolouration of the teeth) and toxins. It has millions of tiny pores inside of it, therefore making it an ideal ingredient for natural oral care products. For a millennia it has been used as a natural remedy, as it has no side effects and it is environmentally friendly. It not only whitens teeth, but also regulates the pH in the mouth, prevents cavities, bad breath and gum disease. Chia seeds help support the digestive system, promote healthy skin and contain a stack of other nutrients. Chia Seeds are easy to come by, available at most health shops and pharmacies, and easily included in your diet. Choosing seasonal, locally produced fruit is always a good idea! It goes without saying that lymphatic drainage has some real health benefits, especially if you’re like me and have poor circulation in your legs.
