diet diary ‘What I ate today’ Abigail James The beauty guru reveals the diet that keeps her looking radiant BREAKFAST ‘I’m an early bird and wake at 5-6.30 am. I start with an Earl Grey tea in bed, then most mornings spend 20 minutes on my yoga mat (I’m in the middle of yoga teacher training), before organising the children and heading off to work. Breakfast is often eggs, avocado, poached tomatoes and wilted spinach; or gluten-free oats with almond milk, flax, chia, berries, baobab or morninga powder and cinnamon.’ DRINKS ‘I like to drink water, herbal and Earl Grey tea, vegetable juice and kombucha.’ Nutritionist Fiona Hunter LUNCH ‘Lunch is usually eaten on the go between clients and meetings. Sometimes I’m organised and bring in a homemade soup or lentil and veg stew. Or I grab a salad – there’s a great place near work that does amazing salads, raw food and juices. After a workout (I love boxing classes, barre and Pilates or a HIIT session at home), I refuel with a smoothie. I’m not a fan of protein powders; I’d rather get my protein from nuts and nut milk. Beetroot juice is great before working out – it gives you more energy for longer.’ DINNER ‘Dinner is my tricky meal as I’m often home late from doing treatments or events. If I eat out, it might be risotto, fish and veg; at home, it’s usually a lot of veg, greens and houmous or leftovers from what I’ve made for the kids, which might be vegetable curry.’ BEAUTY FOOD ‘Oh, there are so many! Avocado (goes without saying), sweet potato, spinach, Brazil nuts, lemons, chia seeds…’ TREATS ‘Booja Booja dairy-free chocolates (boojabooja. com) are heaven, or raw cacao nut milk with dates.’ NUTRITIONIST’S VERDICT ‘As Abigail knows, our skin is the largest organ in our body so it has very high nutritional needs and even a small nutritional deficiency or imbalance is quickly reflected in the condition of the skin. Her diet shows that you can eat healthily despite a busy lifestyle. Kombucha and kefir are good sources of pro- and prebiotics, which help to keep her digestive system healthy and boost immunity. Her diet is a little low in iron, so taking a supplement is a good idea. Lumity contains magnesium, so she should check her magnesium supplement to make sure she’s not taking too much.’ SNACKS ‘I go through phases with snacking. At the moment, I like bananas, some of my homemade nut, seed and superfood balls, or a kefir coconut yoghurt. I also love dipping button mushrooms into houmous; or eating corn crackers with nut butter and banana slices.’ SUPPLEMENTS ‘I take Lumity softgels (lumitylife.co.uk) morning and night. At the moment, I’m also taking chlorella, a probiotic, hyaluronic acid, magnesium and Spatone liquid iron supplements (nelsonsnaturalworld. com).’ SCORE 8 10 WORDS: Mary Comber Love your skin –The ultimate guide to a glowing complexion by Abigail James (Kyle Books, £20) is out now. 34 <strong>Health</strong> & <strong>Fitness</strong> // healthandfitnessonline.co.uk
