What a historic time we’re living in, and not only in relation to the coronavirus . There is an overwhelming amount of news, opinions and advice going around and it can very easily be confusing and worrying. Hopefully without adding to any confusion, here is our two cents worth. A viewpoint we haven’t heard much about in the media.
Seasons Greetings

Kale is considered part of the Brassica family, which also includes broccoli and cabbage. But if you don't like cabbage please don't let that put you off. As the 'Queen of Greens' kale is a superfood packed with plenty of health benefits as listed below and there are numerous ways to prepare this beautifully dark leafy vegetable. Such as my Kale, Avocado and Mango superfood salad, which is quick and easy to make.
1. Firstly grab yourself some locally sourced organic kale. There are a variety of types and they're each as good as the other.
3. Place into a bowl. Add a bit of salt, the juice of half a lemon and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
5. Add a teaspoon of honey, some diced mango, chopped red onion, avocado and chilli flakes. Mix well and serve with any accompaniment of your choice.
2. If the kale you have has the stems attached, chop these off and cut the leaves into smaller pieces.
4. Here's where you work for your supper. Firmly squeeze the kale in your hand until you feel it has broken down and is nicely moist. It will greatly reduce in volume in the bowl.
Benefits of kale
Kale is great for vision and eye health, it can lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. It contains many of the anti-oxidants that are associated with anti-cancer health benefits. Caution should be shown for those on Warfarin or anti-coagulants due to its high levels of vitamin K.
KALE, AVOCADO AND MANGO SUPERFOOD SALAD WITH ROAST POTATOES, ROAST GARLIC AND GRILLED SALMON. BOOM!
Sleep is arguably the most important behavioural experience that we have. On average we spend about 36% of our lives asleep. That's 32 years of a 90 year life spent sleeping!* There is a culture and feeling that whilst we are asleep we are missing out on all the wonderful things of life. Many even quote the phrase 'I'll have plenty of time to sleep when I'm dead!'
As January 2020 takes us into a new year and a new decade the promise of a better, healthier lifestyle tempts us off the sofa and out of our comfort zone.
But before we begin we should assess how that might affect our body. Don’t let the niggles of last year interrupt your good intentions or chances of success.
We’ve already seen a trend of eager resolutions hit their first hurdle from going too hard, too soon or ignoring past issues.
Injury Therapy Pro can help you put your best foot forward, to manage your new movement manifesto, and guide you to your goals in a safe and achievable way.
