| 5 MINUTE HEALTHY BREAKFASTS |
Mix four or five of your favourite seeds together and store them in an airtight container. Keep them beside your oats and breakfast cereals. Continually top up the stores and scatter over cereals, salads or in breads.
You can do the same thing with your favourite nuts and dried fruits. If you have one large container, mix the nuts, dried fruit, seeds, wheatgerm and porridge oats together, and have homemade muesli ready for use.

Add 1 dessertspoon of mixed nuts (brazil nuts, flaked almonds, hazelnuts), 1 dessertspoon of mixed seeds (sesame, sunflower, linseed, pumpkin, etc.), 1 dessertspoon of dried fruit (raisins, apricots, cranberries), and 1 dessertspoon of wheatgerm to some porridge oats and serve with milk or low fat yoghurt.

| Pour apple juice over porridge oats in a large bowl, cover and chill over night. Microwave the next morning and serve with yoghurt. |
| Put 1 pot of natural yoghurt into a blender with mango (or any fresh fruit), 2 tablespoons of oats and 4 ice-cubes and blend until smooth. |
| Combine slices of ripe mango, chunks of melon, chopped dried apricots, hazelnuts and a sprig of fresh mint, drizzle with a little lime juice and sprinkle with cinnamon. This is a great way to start the day with Vitamin A. |
| Eating bio-yoghurts containing acidophilus or bifidus will help maintain a healthy gut flora and therefore ensure we make enough Vitamin K in the body. This is particularly useful if you are taking antibiotics because some of them inhibit the absorption of Vitamin K. |
