I am now back living in Nairobi and have started hosting informative Nutrition talks with a tasty and nutritious meal included. My first talk was held last Friday at the Karen Surgery Studio, it focussed on the importance of balancing blood sugar levels and included key diet and lifestyle tips to keep levels within the optimal or 'healthy' range throughout the day.
My guests started off the day with a refreshing carrot, ginger, apple and cucumber juice - this combo contains an army of antioxidants to help protect the body's cells from free radical damage, helping to boost the immune system. Once I had filled everyone's minds with helpful tips to combat the damaging effects that long term dysglycaemia (imbalance of blood glucose levels) may cause, it was time to sit down and try the nutritious food that I had prepared.
