Wellness Trends for 2017

With 2017 now upon us, there’s no time like the present to think about ways to improve your health and wellness over the coming year. Read on for some of the biggest wellness trends poised to make waves in the coming 12 months.

Plant Protein

 Protein doesn’t just come from animals, with many plants packed with healthy proteins. More sustainable for the environment than animal protein, plant protein is at the heart at the future of wellness.

Rather than struggling to eat buckets of leafy greens everyday, WelleCo’s Nourishing Proteins supplement takes the hard work out of getting your daily dose of protein. Created with pea and brown rice protein, a serve of Nourishing Proteins in your green juice or a glass of water provides all 9 essential amino acids plus digestive enzymes to boost your metabolism.

Stock up on WelleCo’s Nourishing protein, which contains pea and brown rice protein, B vitamins, dandelion, acai and pomegranate, at our North Beach or Dunsborough store.

Inflammation Fighting Foods

While temporary inflammation is healthy, prolonged inflammation can lead to chronic health issues including IBS, arthritis, heart disease and obesity. Caused by factors including stress, lack of sleep, environmental toxins and poor diet, long term inflammation will leave your immune system working overtime.

One of the best ways to counteract inflammation is to ensure your diet is packed with naturally anti-inflammatory foods including blueberries, ginger, cacao, turmeric, green tea, leafy green veggies, cruciferous veggies (including kale, cauliflower, broccoli, bok choy and cabbage) plus wild caught fish such as salmon and trout, fermented foods and coconut oil.

Recovery

 It’s all well and good to hard at the gym or spin class but many people forget that it’s just as important to ensure your body is fully recovered after an intense workout.

Vital for fitness fanatics who favour High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), giving your body time to recover between intervals is crucial. Those who don’t recover properly risk overtraining or burning muscle created during a workout.

Consider a recovery class or self-care products to offset the toll of your next HIIT workout - your aching muscles will thank you!

Staying hydrated is also an important part of recovery and it’s easy to do with the S’Well Water Bottles from HyperLuxe. Designed to keep your drinks cold for 24 hours, these designer bottles are vacuum sealed and do not condensate – so you won’t end up with wet hands after taking a gulp!

Nourish From Within

Glow from the inside out by nourishing your body from within. Created using 45 premium plant based ingredients, the Alkalising Greens supplement by WelleCo is formulated to be absorbed by your body at a cellular level to optimise your body’s functions.

Nourishing ingredients in the Alkalising Greens supplement include:

• Pomegranate - which contains punicalagin that works to neutralise free radicals.
• Horsetail - which is high in silica, a mineral necessary for the repair of tissues.
• Kelp - a sea protein that contains iodine to stimulate your thyroid and encourage a healthy metabolism.
• Dandelion - which works to remove harmful toxins from the liver.
• Tumeric - high in curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory and immune boosting properties.
• Aloe Vera - a plant species that is known to boost body’s natural ability to adapt to external changes.

WelleCo’s Alkalising Greens supplement is available at HyperLuxe North Beach and HyperLuxe Dunsborough.
