A few weeks back I had a fantastic chat with nutritionist Anna Lynch. I have a bit of a girl crush on her. She’s an awesome combination of approachable, passionate and knowledgeable. Unlike me, who is full of opinions that are backed up by… well, nothing really, Anna has opinions based on, you know, facts and science-y knowledge.
I asked her if she’d mind giving me a list of ‘5 foods that nutritionists want us to eat more’. And not only did she oblige me, but she sent through such a great article explaining why, that I’d be doing her an injustice to cut it down to a blog post length. So I’ve prettied the entire article up into a PDF download instead. It’s really great reading, with recipe links for each section.
The best news is that last on the list is CHOCOLATE! Yay, more proof why I think she’s so great – she matches my philosophy that a little of everything in life is good for you.
Which I wish I’d reminded myself of last night, before my fifth glass of Prosecco.

Hi Wendy,
Mmmm, I actually count choc as one of my daily recommended five fruit and veggie servings…. well, it is made from a bean:) Sounds like my kind of nutritionist:)
