Thus far, I’ve not succumbed to the winter cold that’s had all my colleagues coughing and sneezing at their desks. Though terribly afraid of jinxing my run of good health, I have been dutifully taking my supplements this year and am convinced that they are responsible for my beefed-up immune system. I therefore have arranged a giveaway of one of the pills I’ve been popping daily (with meals, as suggested by Lorraine Peretta), as well as noting down the ones I’ve been taking daily…
WINTER SUPPLEMENTS I LOVE / I’ve become a little addicted to the Deciem range of supplement drinks. Recommended to me by make-up artist Daniel Sandler (who also has an aversion to nasty-tasting drinks), I’ve been drinking a spoonful of The Super Green Molecule diluted in water every morning. With this drink I swallow: The Advanced Nutrition Programme’s Skin Vit A+ and Skin Antioxidants (together they repair and protect the skin) and yet more greens in the form of Sun Chlorella. Chlorella is enormously popular at the moment thanks to its health benefits – taking five of the green algae pills is equivalent to 270g (around nine cups) of spinach and provides B12, vitamin D and iron, as well as stimulating the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut.
