What motivated you to write Everyday Super Food?

A few years ago I realised that I wasn’t as healthy as I’d like to be. Perhaps, subconsciously, the lead up to my 40th birthday is to blame, but I realised I was wasn’t getting nearly enough sleep, which meant I often felt tired and sluggish. Now, I feel great – I’ve been studying for a diploma in nutrition too, so I know a lot more about how the food I eat impacts on my body.

The world has never been more unhealthy, and this generation is expected to live shorter lives than their parents – it’s really uncomfortable stuff. I look at my kids, and I look at that statistic, and it really bothers me. So, with this book I’ve done all the hard work for you. I want this book to be a gateway to a more open and understanding relationship with food – a tool to help you get things right, most of the time.
