Prebiotics & Probiotics .... what are they and how do you get yours & what are they?

We’ve all heard of probiotics but what about prebiotics?🥑

Prebiotics are present in fiber-rich foods such as fruit and vegetables & wholegrains and act as food for the Probiotics. Probiotics are found in fermented foods like yogurt, kimchi and tempeh.🥑

They both support the body in building and maintaining a healthy colony of bacteria and other microorganisms, which supports the gut and aids digestion. Eating balanced amounts of both pro- and prebiotics can help ensure that you have the right balance of these bacteria, which should improve your health🥑

How are you supporting your gut health? For a start ensure you’re eating plenty of prebiotics like spinach, kale, brocili, avacados, berries (think colours of the rainbow) Feed the probiotics, a bit like fertilizing the crops and create good gut bacteria. The gut bacteria help with a variety of biological tasks. They also provide important nutrition to the cells lining your digestive tract.🥑

What’s your favorite prebiotic? Mine….. Avacados & Kale.

My tip for Kale, season with salt and pepper and drizzle in coconut oil then roast in the oven until crispy. What’s yours?

I’ve really enjoyed this programme, having done the 4 week lift lean in Jan which was really quite strict with the food and intense with the daily workouts I’ve actually seen better results this time around.

I like having a choice of workouts as if I’m not keen on doing one 2/3 times through I just pick an alternative to make up the time. Like you Malinda I found it difficult to keep up with the workouts every day what with two young kids and work 4 days a week. I didn’t beat myself up if I didn’t do it this time though as I knew that if I got to class a couple of times a week and kept on top of the eating I could at the very least maintain the weight.

Hi Lindsay, the Elevate program has been a hit for me. I’ve enjoyed the different options each week. Wednesday nights class was a challenge but a good one. I also liked the daily choice of online exercises. Results for me were 3kg weight & 4.5 ins loss.

I’m ready for my trip to Australia to visit my son ✈️?❤️. Sorry but won’t be back to class till November ?.
Thanks again Lindsay for your encouragement, endless energy & support xx

I lost 2lb in weight and 5.5 inches in total. I’m really pleased with the inch loss but was hoping for a few more pounds to have gone! However I’m pleased because it’s still a loss.

I had gestational diabetes in both pregnancies, so I’m high risk to develop type 2 at some point during the rest of my life. I’m not going to let this happen so Elevate/Lindsay has helped get my mindset on track for this. Having ‘wiggle room’ and not beating myself up about it is such a positive thing- allowing myself this has actually meant I’ve got back on track again much quicker than I would usually.

I love my fitness pal and will keep it up mon-fri, the daily coaching from Lindsay was invaluable and set me up for the day in the right mindset.
I wasn’t fab at the daily workouts but did add more daily walks in, regular daily small changes is the way forward for me

Loved having a different theme each week too. The most challenging for me was to eat varied meals and to post in the group..

Thanks so much Lindsay, looking forward to the November Elevate

My measurements and weight stayed the same, however, overall I feel less bloated and more toned and my clothes feel looser.

I didn’t really want to lose too much weight, just tone up and I feel that I have achieved this. I also feel that my digestion problems are more under control now I eat cleaner and I think I have a better understanding on the food that triggers my ibs cramps.

Paula Trainer

I’m definitely more alert & my energy levels have improved. My sleep as also improved.

I found the daily coaching really useful. Maybe 7am is too early for some. It was okay for me as I’m at work by 7, but maybe 7.30am better. I definitely think mornings are better.

I’ve booked on the November course so my goal is to continue with food food protocol that works best for me, along with tracking my inch loss. I’ve decided not to track my weight as it’s left me really disappointed each week.

Thanks for your support Lindsay Williams

So excited as I approach the end of the programme. Have lost 4lbs and although I didn’t take accurate body measurements at any point during the programme, I know I have lost mass as I can now fit into clothing that I couldn’t before!

I’m feeling a lot fitter and more energetic and I am determined to keep up the regular exercise. Have also bought myself several keto recipe books to ensure I stay focused and motivated to keep going as I am loving the variety and naturalness of the food. Thanks Lindsay x
