Embracing Diversity in Diet and Tackling Seasonal Allergies

One of the resolutions that I would consider making in the spring would be to try, I'm not going to just stop at eating five fruits and veg every day, I'm going to go as far as trying 30 different fruits, veg, nuts, seeds every week. So I think it's very important to always go out of our way to try at least a new fruit as much as we can, or a new vegetable. We live in a very diverse city so it's very easy to reach out to our friends and find out about what they eat in their culture, what are different ethnic cuisines, different dishes that they cook and learn more about different things that we wouldn't necessarily incorporate in our diet or in our food. So that would be my resolution in the spring to try different foods every week, try to eat 30 seeds, nuts, vegetables and fruits every week. In the past I've made resolutions to eat a more healthy diet and I believe that has worked very well for me, especially since joining the Norrish Hub as I have reduced the amount of meat and reduce the amount of sugars that I've consumed. So starting my diet, my day with a healthy breakfast, high in fiber but low in sugar and salt is very important and it's one of those resolutions that I've made in the past that I have really kept to. As we all know in the spring the level of pollen can be quite high and I believe that's That's one of the challenges that many face and many may not necessarily know how to manage. I have found myself as well in the last couple of years dealing with that issue and hay fever and trying to manage that myself without reaching out to the health professionals. So I believe it may be the case that now being in spring again, I should reach out to those people that are a lot more knowledgeable than me that can give me the advice that I need on how to manage this better for myself and for my family as well as I've also got a daughter that is struggling with hay fever. An online health shared community can help people prepare for spring. People often like to do their research and if the resources are all in one place it's very easy and very accessible for people to find and then so people can read from other people's experience and they can take advice from others and share their own experiences and it will benefit the entire community to have that resource, have that platform that they can access.
