Take A Peek Inside A Nutritionist's Fridge

World Digestive Day comes and goes every year without anyone thinking twice about it. Except us. But we're kind of nerds, so don't mind us.

While you might not think twice about the day itself, we're willing to put a whole case of booch on the fact that you probably DO think twice about what foods go into your fridge, and whether they're packed full of goodness.

To help us explore our fridge game, we asked Remedy Nutritionist Jacq Alwill for a peek into hers. Don't get us wrong - we're not about to go all health warrior on you. Chips and choccy are welcome in our fridges any day of the week. But we wanna suss out where we might be able to add more goodness, so Jacq told us what she can't live without!

Plenty of fresh vegetables

...and fruit on the kitchen table. These are definitely the foundations for mine/family’s diet, and feature in every meal and snack. If you aim for 30 different plant points each week that’s a great way to ensure your diet is diverse and acquires nutrients from a variety of sources.

Prepped food

Leftovers that can be reheated for fast lunches, boiled eggs, steamed vegetables (the basics for quick meal pull togethers with some flavour pumpers to bring up the joy of the meal), snacks ready for the kids/school run including gummy jellies (these are orange and they love them), overnight soaked oats (soaked in kombucha last week and coffee this week - variety is the spice of life!)

Fermented foods and drinks

Including Remedy Kombucha, kraut, kimchi, miso, yoghurt and Remedy Shots. Ginger Lemon is one of the OG kombucha flavours by Remedy and to this day a family favourite. I love the ginger in the winter as well for the anti-inflammatory properties infused into this gut loving, fizzy, booch refreshment.

Ground flax/linseed

As a Nutritionist with a special interest in women’s health, I always have the ingredients on hand that I educate on, so I can not only educate, but create as well. Nutrition is learned very differently when it is incorporated into a food context so I do my best always to educate in that way… and with great taste, naturally.

Flavour pumpers

Salsa verde, good quality mayonnaise, aioli, walnut pesto, pickles, olives, cheeses, etc. because simple meals like steamed veggies and boiled eggs can actually become flavour bombs with a few extra elements added to them. That way nutrition and health isn’t boring, but is constantly inspiring, satisfying and always delicious.
