A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
I bought a bottle of organic cold soba sauce from the organic shop last week. It’s free of preservatives, colorings, sugar and other chemical additives. Check out the ingredients in the label on the bottle here: I use the soba sauce to prepare cold green tea noodles for Alycia and Sherilyn. They, especially Sherilyn are…
The other day, I bought a tub of Arla soft cheese with yoghurt. It’s the first time I’d seen a cheese spread that comes with yoghurt. This cheese spread is very light, has no preservative, low in sodium and tastes great. I’ve been eating it almost everyday with my toasts. That’s my breakfast yesterday :…
The other day, I bought a cup of organic tau foo far (soy bean curd) without any sugar/syrup after my morning jogging session. This is how I ate the tau foo far for my breakfast : I added a teaspoon of Milo and threw in a handful of organic pumpkin seeds and walnuts. When Sherilyn…
I bought a tub of Lemnos Premium Quality Hommus Dip (consists of chickpeas, white sesame seed paste, lemon juice, canola oil) whilst shopping for groceries at Tesco several days ago. This is my first time buying this dip and it is a perfect food for weight watchers as it’s high in protein and low in carb. …
I found out about the less sugar Vitagen at Barb’s blog. When I went grocery shopping the other day, I got a pack of orange flavored less sugar Vitagen for Alycia and Sherilyn. I tasted it and it does taste better with lesser sugar. It would be really good if Vitagen can come out with…

I first found out about sprouted wheat bread 6 years ago, during the height of my weight-loss journey. I had gained 6kg in 2 months due to PCOS, a hormonal disorder (my weight shot up from 42kg to 48kg). Most PCOS sufferers are resistant to insulin and have a hard time loosing weight. I found…
As Baby C is still exclusively breastfed, I try to include as much DHA and Omega 3 rich food in my diet everyday. I pop 1-2 fish oil capsules a day, eat an Omega enriched egg or free-range chicken egg a day, try to eat fish as often as I can, eat flaxseed powder and eat a…
Who? Me of course! I love anything that’s healthy and wholesome. I love anything that has sesame seeds or sesame seed oil in them. I especially love to sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on my food – on my bowl of sugar-free yoghurt for breakfast, together with walnuts (a brain nourishing food) and other seeds and…
I bought this can of flax seed powder from the orgnanic shop for Aly and Sher last week. It contains organic flax seed powder, organic soy protein, organic soy powder, cane sugar and Oligosaccharide. It is also rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 – a heart and brain nourishing food. I meant to give…
