Although the recommended portion size for bread is about a palm size 40-50g the different varieties of bread have different density which makes it tricky.

Fresh ginger is an underrated winter super food, strong antiinflammatory properties, soothing for nausea, indigestion, joint pain and common cold. Great for anyone on weight loss injections GLP-1 to manage gastrointestinal side effects.

Mint tea is naturally caffeine free, high in antioxidants and menthol so relaxing and soothing for the stomach and digestive tract. Mint is also a very resistant plant that grows well in any garden, pots and on windowsill.

Chickpeas are versatile plant protein source, high in non hem iron, potassium, magnesium, vitamins B and fiber. Great for gut health also favourable impact on cardiovascular profile. The confusion seems to be how much to eat as many people are simply not eating enough – the recommended portion size is about 1/2 of tin per meal per person.

Beef jerky (depending on brand) contains at least 20% protein here 30g portion and 10g protein so very useful high protein snack for anyone on weight loss journey including GLP-1 injections and weight maintenance or weight recovery. What seems to be missing is that it also contains nitrates (the same as in ham and bacon) related to health risk and therefore should be eaten in moderation and infrequently. Many dietetic patients are avoiding ham and bacon and eating jerky beef daily without checking nutritional information on the pack unfortunately which by law has to state nitrates if added in the technological process.

Brown rice is underrated and cheap super food, great for satiety due to high both soluble and insoluble fiber content, protein content and low glycemic index. Recommended portion size if you are losing weight on weight loss injections or maintaining weight is about 100-120g cooked rice.
