PRO TIPS:

Coconut Yoghurt Benefits: Considered a fermented food providing beneficial bacteria to support gut health. Choose UNSWEETENED, not flavoured/sweetened. This helps to avoid unnecessary “added” sugars. 

Nut Free: replace the walnuts with sunflower seeds.

Aim for 30 different plant-based foods each week for gut nourishment and diversity.
