GOOD OIL

Some research just published has found that 21% of women in the UK would consider Plastic Surgery. Some might find that statistic pretty shocking but I’m less surprised. Too many people nowadays see Plastic Surgery as a ‘quick fix’ rather than a last resort – and I’m on a crusade to put a stop to that attitude.

At the London Wellness Centre and Plastic Surgery Associates we  tell patients EVERY DAY that before we can operate they need to start taking more care about what they put inside their body. With our support, many see the dramatic impact that diet and well being can have on the outside.

I’m a massive fan of GOOD Oil and I have been from its inception. I recommend it to my patients because of its wonderful mix of Omegas (with the perfect ratio of 3 to 6 for our bodies), the GLA and the lower saturated fat compared to Olive Oil. Furthermore, interestingly, it can also help with hormonal imbalance – which is nearly always the culprit in regard to skin problems (as well as  host of other health and wellness issues).

Here are my ‘top 5 tips’ for wellness and good skin!

O N E

Start the day with porridge. Add some seeds and some dried cranberry, and a tablespoon of GOOD Oil. If you crave sweetness, avoid white sugar (high GI) and go for Agave Nectar instead (available in health food shops). Yum! Hopefully this will stop you snacking half way through the morning too – perfect!

T W O

Don’t aim for 5 pieces of Fruit and Veg a day, go for 9. At the Clinic, Constance says they judge how healthy someones diet is by asking when they last ate Broccoli – so make you get plenty of the green stuff.

T H R E E

Avoid pre-packaged food whenever possible – too much salt and too many chemicals. Make Veggie packed meals, drizzled with GOOD Oil and fill up your freezer with them (this includes no lunches on the go – take a packed lunch box to work).

F O U R

Don’t drink too much alcohol. An obvious one, but very important.

F I V E

Get some exercise. You don’t need to join a gym or become a marathon runner to enjoy the benefits – just a regular walk in the park can do the world of GOOD!
