Cold and flu season is approaching and with this year’s global pandemic still lingering on, our immunity is something we’re more aware of than ever before. There is no magic pill for the flu (yet) so making self-care a priority is crucial this winter. “Luckily we can do so whilst enjoying warming, comforting and seasonal foods that pack a great dose of flavour alongside immune-boosting properties,” says Gabrielle Masefield a professional chef with a diploma in holistic nutrition.

At any Christmas get-togethers, you might not be able to control what’s on the menu or choose what is served, so a way to curb the effect of any potential less-than-healthy rich foods is to eat before you go. ‘Consuming something light and healthy an hour or so before you arrive, such as a vegetable soup, green smoothie or some lean protein with vegetables, ensures that you don’t show up really hungry and hoover up all the trays of canapés,’ says Gabrielle Masefield, holistic nutritionist and professional chef. ‘Feeling satisfied with something light and nutritious before you arrive means that you can pick and choose a few tasty morsels to sample, without relying on them to fill you up.’ A couple of canapés or a taste of dessert won’t ruin your health goals.

Once the winter blues settle in, many of us start to feel the lethargic effects of seasonal affective disorder (SAD), and need a little pick-me-up. So, how should you go about tackling it? According to professional chef Gabrielle Masefield, it ultimately begins with what you choose to pile on your plate. “Food has a powerful impact on our moods, how we feel, and vice versa,” says Gabrielle. “Everything from the mid-afternoon sugar crash to the more complicated way in which micronutrients trigger certain reactions and hormone responses.”
