My favourite fat burning and pre-training drink

Green tea is one of my most favourite aids for detoxification and fat loss. It contains plenty of catechins - these little wonders help to regulate my blood sugar and appetite, and in turn help to promote fat loss.

The caffeine it contains a helpful fat burning aid when combined with resistance training, as this study suggests.

I'm also very aware of my caffeine intake.  I never have it on an empty stomach or first thing in the morning - I make sure I have breakfast first.  That way it won't upset my tummy.

And, since caffeine can stay in my system for up to 48 hours (which could disturb my sleep), I stick with 1-2 caffeinated drinks a day and generally avoid it after lunch.

Here's a little shareable from me for you to muse on too.

Wishing you all the best in health and happiness,

Fiona

How I'm burning fat faster with this little known porridge secret

I've always loved porridge.  And one day I stumbled upon Mornflake Oatbran as I was scanning the aisles at Waitrose (it lives on the bottom shelf so it's easy to miss).

As I had a closer look at the breakdown I noticed that the numbers looked very different from normal porridge oats.  

Amazingly oatbran has at least 40% more protein and 200% more fibre than its whole rolled cousin, which means they will take longer to break down, will keep you fuller for longer and will contribute much more to your body composition aims.  Oh! And while Mornflake are sadly no longer allowed to call it gluten free it has far less gluten than porridge oats so it's easier on the tummy too.

If you make it with oat milk, dried apple and cinnamon it tastes absolutely amazing ... and takes no time at all to cook.  

40g for a woman, 50g for a man, top it with a big handful of berries if you like!  Try it out - you might be converted for good!
