Food Optimising – a healthy, satisfying eating plan
- Food Optimising is a flexible eating plan designed to create healthy eating patterns that can be maintained long term.
- It’s based on nutrition science that shows that foods higher in protein and carbohydrate are more satiating than foods high in fat.
- Encouraging a higher intake of more satiating foods helps to limit energy intake and results in weight loss.
- Food Optimising combines the principles of energy density (the calories per gram in a food) and satiety (how filling a food is).
- A typical Food Optimising daily menu includes at least five portions of fruits and vegetables alongside a healthy amount of lean protein-rich foods and carbohydrates, measured portions of fibre- and calcium-rich foods, and a reduction in overall fat, saturated fat and free sugars (the sugars that are not naturally found in fruit and vegetables).
Body Magic – a rewarding step-by-step activity programme
- Our Body Magic activity programme helps members gradually increase physical activity levels and improve overall health and wellbeing.
- Developed with a deep understanding of the barriers overweight people often face in becoming more active.
- Body Magic uses well–established psychological and scientific principles of behaviour change.
- It helps people find their own personal, enjoyable, and sustainable ways of increasing activity and making it a part of their daily routine.
A warm, empowering group environment
