Monday fun! Trying out my new spiraliser! Courgetti! 🤗 A bit tricky on my RA hands but would be easy for anyone without fine motor skill problems to use. Total food porn satisfaction to watch the courgette spaghetti being made – and so quick too! Initially I had been a bit wary after reading some rare but horrific incidents some have had on the super sharp Japanese blades (obviously myself being more at risk of this) but so far I am still alive! Yay!

It seems everyone is getting into healthy eating/ eating clean now whether they are ill or not which is great. But what the fructose is ‘healthy eating’ anyway? I won’t get into the fructose and sucrose of it right now but generally speaking it’s more anti-inflammatory foods, less inflammatory foods and looking after your gut. That is; eating more foods which are nutrient rich and less which are nutrient poor. Also less acidic more alkaline foods. If you cut out processed foods and processed sugars then you’re already on to a winner. Then within that there are scales different people adhere to depending on their health situation which involve cutting out wheat, gluten, dairy, nightshade family etc.

A spiraliser would be great for anyone on these routes or just those conscious of getting more veggies into their diet. They are perfect for illnesses such as diabetes as they effortlessly allow more veg less carbs on the plate – and of course great for those of us with an anti inflammatory lifestyle! 😋
