Feeding yourself well goes beyond what you eat. If you are hungry for attention, comfort, understanding, or companionship, turn toward friends and family instead of food.
Our physical resilience depends largely on what we eat, so nutrition is our first line of defense in keeping our immune systems strong.
You can help local people in crisis by donating tinned/long-life in-date items and giving them to a Norwich foodbank collection point.
Crisis food boxes are available to people who obtain a food voucher from one of Norwich foodbank’s distributor organisations across Norwich. You exchange the voucher for a food box at one of their distribution centres.
Norwich foodbank supports local individuals and families who find themselves on the edge of disaster through the provision of emergency food supplies: nutritionally-balanced emergency foodboxes to cover an individual or family’s basic needs for 3 days.
If you think you don’t have time to make breakfast, prepare it the night before. It can still be healthy and filling even if eaten when leaving the house.
Committing to a breakfast each morning reduces the likelihood that you will snack between meals, and the extra breakfast energy boost also translates to more physical activity to burn excess calories.
To counteract the effects of not eating breakfast, many teens resort to eating high-fat, high-sodium snacks to give them a boost during the day.
Skipping breakfast leaves your body and brain feeling tired, depriving your body of all of the nutrients and energy you need for optimum performance throughout the day.
Food Revolution Day is a global day of action for people to make a stand for good food and essential cooking skills. It’s a chance for people to come together within their homes, schools, workplaces and communities to cook and share their kitchen skills, food knowledge and resources. Food Revolution Day aims to raise awareness about the importance of good food and better food education for everyone.
