There's no need for a complete pantry and bathroom cupboard overhaul, that is, unless you want to do it. Change takes time, testing, resources and finances.   So whether you're adopting a new diet or body care routine, it's worth noting that replacing or substituting brands you normally use with natural and organic ones can be done one item at a time.   Identify your reason to change before making a change. Understand the why.  Take steps to take self-care, self-nourish and love yourself with amazing products.   For me, the motivation to stop using mainstream, cheap and cheerful brands came after a breast cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatments and surgeries.

Organic coconut flour is a grain-free, wheat-free, and naturally gluten-free alternative to other flours. It is a naturally sweet, fine powder suitable for those following a paleo, gluten-free or plant-based lifestyle. Producers make coconut flour by removing fresh organic coconut meat from the coconut, drying it, and extracting oil. Then, they grind the dried meat into a powder resembling wheat flour. Like other flours, you can use Coconut Flour to make bread, muffins, cookies, fritters, pancakes, or slow-cooked creations. However, its high fibre content and density mean you cannot use Coconut Flour in the same ratio as other flours. It will require more liquid and additional eggs added to a recipe. 1 cup wheat flour = 1/3 coconut flour, Add 1 egg and 1/3 cup of extra liquid for every 1/3 cup of organic coconut flour.

Coconut Twist is a mini collection of my favourite recipes using coconut products. Coconut oil and desiccated coconut feature in many recipes. However, many use coconut flour and coconut sugar in paleo, keto, vegan or plant-based diets or in specific cuisines. I've learnt that coconut sugar can be used in the same ratio as white or caster sugar. Coconut flour, on the other hand, absorbs a lot of liquid and should be used in a 1:4 ratio of plain flour.

The lymphatic system is a network of delicate tubes throughout the body; in simplistic terms, it is our body’s ‘sewerage system.’ The lymphatic system is essential for the optimal functioning of our general and specific immune responses. It drains fluid (called lymph) that has leaked from the blood vessels into the tissues and empties it back into the bloodstream via the lymph nodes. Overview of the lymphatic system and how to improve a sluggish one Lymph nodes are the filters in our body. They exist at various points around the body, including the throat, armpits, chest, abdomen and groin. They monitor the lymph fluid flowing into them and produce cells and antibodies that protect our body from infection and disease. The lymphatic system also includes other organs, such as the thymus, spleen, and tonsils. These organs contain immune cells that help to fight
