Have you ever felt guilty when ordering a takeaway coffee because of the wasted coffee cup? Or continuously forget your re-useable cup? Edible coffee cups may be your solution. Would you eat your coffee cup? Let me know 🧇 #sustainabilitymatters

I’m On air tonight at 5.20pm with @SharriMarkson on @SkyNews to talk about how the current school food environment isn’t fuelling our children’s brain nor their education - plus more!

Did you know? It’s a berry fun fact! 🤷🏻‍♀️Those little hairs are also called “styles”. 😅 Raspberries are high in ellagitannins- a bioactive that’s not found in many foods. One more reason to love berries. 💕 #drflav #funfactsoftheday #nutritiontips #kidshealthaustralia

Hibernation for humans is possible for deep space missions. @BCMSpaceHealth already funded 4 projects to develop this. Excited to see this @NatMetabolism study that induces hibernation in mice with safe ultrasound pulses to brain. Deep sleep here I come nature.com/articles/s42255-0… – at Houston, TX

Research also shows that UV exposed mushrooms increase vitamin D levels in the blood to the same level as a low dose vitamin D supplement (25ug or 1000 IU/day).

and research shows it has a similar function in the body and that our body does utilises the D2 (fungi) vs D3 (animal) in a similar way. The only difference is that D2 may not be used medically for a vitamin D bolus injection.

There's an incorrect comment later in the show about vitamin D2 not doing the same thing as D3 read out from a caller. Research shows that the vitamin D2 is not only well absorbed, but it increases vitamin D levels just like animal foods do (D3)

One of those epic moments where you say something that really resonates meaningfulness to someone 🥰
I was just talking to @drflavs & she said something that resonated hard with me (being someone who often is speaking up and pushing back) - "It's ok to ruffle the feathers, as long as you don't kill the bird".

doi.org/10.1038/s43016-023-0… Epic study looking at food waste from cradle to grave. It’s a super detailed look at the end-to-end food lifecycle and where waste is created. 🏠 It’s a good idea to reduce your household food waste, which comprises of 1/3 of global food waste.

What do you think is the reason that whole foods have such a high value in food culture? 🍌 #drflavs #dietwhatdiet #dietitian #healthtip #healthtipsof #drflav #wholefoods #foodsynergy #backedbyscience

Did you know? Essential minerals including iron, calcium, zinc, and selenium to name a few, cannot be destroyed by cooking or freezing. Potassium can leech into water when boiling but it’s not actually destroyed. 💪🏼 . #nutritionist #funfact #science #drflav #nutrition

Did you know that the term diet means “way of life”? Diet culture has unfortunately destroyed the true meaning of the word- which translates from Latin “diaeta” - prescribed way of life; or from Greek “diata” - way of life. Either or- it’s a holistic approach to food and eating.

How often do you look in your toilet to see how your gut is doing? 🚽🧻💩 It’s great and objective measure of health, and I suggest you do, if you don’t already. Want to know more? Check out the article with House of Wellness houseofwellness.com.au/healt…
