10 ways to improve your health, fitness and wellbeing
From setting up your home gym to trying the Keto diet, or making your own yoghurt - these are some noteworthy trends in the health world
As we start easing out of lockdown, it’s important we build on the healthy habits and lessons that many of us have picked up during this time.
While it’s been a difficult year for most people, many have also taken advantage of time which was previously spent commuting to exercise and develop healthy eating habits by cooking up wholesome meals.
As pubs and restaurants reopen, now is the time to resist the urge to slip back into a more manic lifestyle and remember to retain time for the important things: health, fitness and wellbeing.
How to boost your Vitamin D intake
As the world slowly starts to open up again, it’s important for us to hold onto healthy habits. This includes having a regular exercise regime, maintaining a balanced diet and making sure we get enough Vitamin D.
SunVit-D3s 1000IU & 20,000IU Informed Sports tablets provide a great way of getting a Vitamin D boost. Both tablets contain high-grade ingredients and have been approved vegan by the Vegetarian Society, halal by the Halal Monitoring Committee, and are dairy- and gluten-free. The range includes tablets, capsules, gummies and liquid preparations, to suit all needs

Find out how the keto diet can work for you
If you’ve ever been curious about the low-carb keto diet, BeKeto is the best place to start. This London-based brand offers everything you need to start, including delicious sugar-free sweet treats. The keto diet offers a simple but enticing prospect: eat fat and burn fat. To get to this point, the body needs to achieve a state of ketosis, meaning that it starts using fat as a source of energy instead of carbohydrates and sugars.
When on a low-carb diet and in a state of ketosis, some people have reported losing weight and having more energy.
