THE HEALTHY COCKTAIL
If like me you like to go light on the alcohol, and particularly as you get older you require less as it seems to affect you more (or is it just me) than this one is for you. I love a good night out or a long lunch but I don’t always want to consume lots of alcohol but none of the non alcoholic alternatives excite. I hate gassy drinks so mixers are out and I hate syrupy sugary cocktails loaded with calories. This ‘Mocktail’ is healthy , cooling and absolutely delicious. Most barmen have a blender and these 3 ingredients behind the bar and how cool is it you can create your own AND stay sober AND keep your good looks.
Cucumber > mint>lime>lots of ice and a smidge of honey to sweeten.

THE WATER RETENTION ELIMINATOR
This your ‘go to’ juice when you have a big event coming up or just experiencing bloating. Twice a day for 3 days maximum.
Celery.> parsley >lemon juice>cold green tea> ice

THE MENOPAUSE MIX
The two juices above are as and when you require the solution but the Menopause Mix I genuinely mix up every morning and I would thoroughly recommend for the 50+ every ingredient serves its purpose.
Greek 0% yogurt- calcium for healthy bones and teeth
Blueberries-
Collagen powder- I use marine collagen (by Vital Proteins))> Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body. Better bone health and skin.
Flax Oil- contains phytoestrogens which can help reduce hot flushes and keep the joints lubricated.
Chia Seeds- High in Omega 3 healthy fats and protein and can also reduce appetite by keeping you feeling full.
Ashwagandha Powder -this herb can control hormone fluctuations as it works on the endocrine system and can help with mod swings and metabolism.
Pineapple- add for sweetness as is also a hormone regulator . Rich in polyphenols and vitamin c and is a powerful anti oxidant and detoxifier.
