Here at the Wellness Hub, we all have different food preferences. Some prefer to eat mainly plants, others are more animal based or keto. Some follow Weston A Price principles. Some are gluten free, or have other food allergies. So we know there isn’t one ideal diet for everyone. And even if you think you’ve found yours, that may change later on, or even next month.

But we agree on some basic principles:

1. Eat Real Food as much as possible – as wide a variety and as nutrient dense as possible
2. Minimise processed foods, especially sugars, coffee, chocolate, alcohol (sad as we are to say it). Ask: could my grandmother have made this in her own kitchen?
3. Go with the FLOW = Fresh, Frozen or Fermented / Local / Organic / What’s In Season
4. Eat a balance of Protein, Fat, Carbs
5. Avoid snacking – space meals at least 3 hours apart to allow for full digestion

We’re aiming to get a selection of recipes on the blog that fit these principles and cater for a range of different diets. So far we have:
