Dr Joanna McMillan says
Top marks for β¦ Snacking on fruit and nuts, both are nutrient dense, wholefood options, while the cheese was the sole high calcium food for the day.
If you keep eating like this youβll β¦ Miss out on the benefits of vegies with their array of nutrients, fibre and phytonutrients. Powders cannot replace eating the recommended five serves of veg a day, and your only veg was the cabbage salad.
Why donβt you try β¦ Add mushrooms, spinach or asparagus to breakfast. Swap the green powder for a green smoothie made with wholefoods. Add Greek yoghurt to your fruit salad to boost both protein and calcium. Add sweet potato, carrot or pumpkin to dinner as different coloured vegies add a variety of phytonutrients.
