Drinks to drink when you feel the flu coming!

1.) Honey Milk.
Take a glass of hot milk and add a table spoon of honey to it. The milk and honey should help calm your throat when it's sore.

2.) Ginger Tea
Here you can use any tea of your choice, preferably rooibos tea. Then you can just add a few pieces of freshly chopped ginger and a squeeze of lemon. Last but not least, add a table spoon of honey to give it some sweetness and help soothe your throat again :)

3.) Apple Ginger Flu Shot
Now you need a juicer. Juice one apple with a big chunk of ginger. Combine it and chug it down.  It will burn your throat if you put in a lot of ginger, which is a good sign, because it burns all the bacteria in your throat and helps to strengthen your immun system. :)

How to lose weight!

1. Drink loads of water, to fill you up. A lot of times when you feel hungry, you are actually thirsty, so before getting something to eat, just chug down a large glass of water.

2. Eat a lot of vegetables and fruits, and try to cut out white flour, rice and sugar.

3. Get tempting foods out of your home!!

4. Eat from a smaller plate, rather than from a large plate, because it will trick your mind in thinking that you are eating more, than you actually are.

5. Stay busy!! A lot of times, you eat out of boredom, so do something to take your mind off food :)

6. And obviously have an active day! Do sports to burn those calories :D

How to get rid of a flu/prevent, when you feel it coming

1. Get plenty of rest! Try and get your full 8 hours of sleep every night, and if you can and have the time, sleep even more :)

2. Drink a homemade ginger tee. Chop up some ginger, put it in a cup, add some honey, lemon and hot water. Stir it and let it sit for a few minutes, so the drink can develop.

3. If you have a sore throat, you can drink a cup of warm milk with honey, that should help ;)



4. Eat a lot of foods high in vitamin C. Best are oranges, lemons and naartjies!

5. Keep yourself warm and cuddled up. Throw on some thick socks and a comfy hoodie and watch your favourite series :) <3 (while drinking a ginger tee ;))

How to get rid of bloating!


1. Before going to bed, drink a warm cup of rooibos, green, peppermint or herbal tee.

2. When you wake up, make yourself an 8 oz. glass of water, and squeeze in half a lemon (It might be a bit sour in the beginning, but you will get used to it, and actually start enjoying the drink) You can also add some cucumber or ginger if you like to :D

3. Eat as healthy as you can, and try to avoid sugar, dairy and wheat. (Fizzy drinks are extremely bad for you and make you bloat up like a balloon!) These foods are the most common foods that cause bloating. Instead, eat a lot of fruits, veggies and meat. :)
