How does this benefit your body?

EGGS: high in protein so will keep you full but also has lots of vitamin A, vitamin B-12 and selenium. Selenium is a mineral that supports cognition and immune function by maintaining thyroid hormone metabolism and DNA synthesis, protecting the body from oxidative damage and infection.

FETA: super tasty and full of “good fats” which help satiety when paired with protein. Feta is also made through a fermentation process, so provides “good” gut bacteria

COURGETTES: adds fibre to this meal, supporting your gut microbiome. Fibre is digested in your colon, rather than your stomach it feeds the “good” bacteria in the gut when digested. Fibre also helps you feel fuller for longer, so if weight loss is your goal, it can be really helpful to focus on a fibre rich diet whilst also balancing cholesterol levels.
