Food is what sustains us. It builds our muscles, supports our immune system, balances our hormones, brightens our skin and gives us the energy to be our best. Real food is beautiful, nourishing, life sustaining, and wonderful. It is medicine for body as well as for the heart and soul!
One of the biggest misconceptions is that healthy eating involves following a diet, counting calories, fat or carbs, or missing out on all the foods you love. But in reality, healthy eating is simply about eating real food and listening to our bodies.
The key is to eat fresh, seasonal produce, in as close to its natural state as possible. Eat when you're hungry, stop when you're full and enjoy every mouthful. If you do this 80-90% of the time then the occasional treat won't have a negative impact.

I'm a chef, nutritional therapist, lecturer and health writer with a first class degree in chemistry and I'm motivated by a passion for seriously delicious food! My mission is to show people that healthy food can be both scrumptious and easy to prepare. My latest venture is Pure Taste, a restaurant that specialises in gourmet gluten-free and paleo-friendly food.
The project is a culmination of everything I love and my experiences so far. The chemist in me loves the challenge of working with unusual ingredients, while the nutritionist and chef relish being able to create amazing and healthy dishes that everyone will love to eat.
Serving up a smorgasbord of devilishly delicious dishes, Pure Taste's food is designed to make you feel as good as it tastes, creating a unique dining experience that can be enjoyed by everyone. www.puretasterestaurant.com
