Guy: I can’t tell you how many times I’ve filmed myself for this blog and cut my head off whilst shooting! So we thought we’d have some fun and keep this mighty fine CrossFit athlete a mystery, as he shares with us his post workout protein smoothie.
Can you guess who it is? Continue reading

After being on so many antibiotics due to my elbow infection (you can watch the video here), I have been on a hunt to find superior probiotics to help recolonise my gut health. I’m happy to say I stumbled across the company Progurt as I’m quickly learning there are many forms of bacteria strains, strength’s and qualities.
I have put this quick video together to show you what I’m doing each morning to create my super strength probiotic high protein breakfast. I stumbled across the company Progurt and have been highly impressed with the probiotic it produces and wanted to share it with you. Continue reading

Guy: This a great post by Tania as we focus on The Month Of The Gut. If you are wondering what the relationship is to the gut, weight loss and overall health then this is a must read. I’ll be having the gut test Tania talks about in this post… In the mean time, enjoy! Over to Tania…
Tania: If you have been struggling with your weight loss plan, most of your attention will be on the food you eat and increasing your exercise – which is great, but there are some people who despite their best efforts are still unable to lose weight. Does this sound familiar and why is this the case?

Want to start your year the right way? Are you planning a New Years Resolution of great health, weight loss or exercise?

If you live within Australia, we will pay for you to have a gut health consultation with a qualified practitioner and also a months worth of prescribed supplementation to help fix the gut if necessary.

After putting my thoughts into a recent post on soy lattes, the topic of milk in general started to pop up and just like soy, milk is a heavily debated topic for sure.
One thing I wanted to add is that our blog at 180 Nutrition is gathering great momentum and there are some very smart people in the industry following it… way smarter than me! The one thing I envisioned when I started blogging was to create awareness on health and hopefully attract like-minded people who contributed with feedback. All questions and comments are encouraged and whilst I’m clearly passionate about health I certainly don’t have all the answers, but I do my best when I can :)
Anyway, back to the topic at hand! Why I don’t drink much milk… Continue reading

Do you eat yogurt? I was absolutely amazed by how many yogurts were staring back at me on the shelves of my local supermarket the other day.
Every one of them was claiming great things! All the marketing buzzwords are there competing for you to pick them up and get scanned at the checkout. Ca-ching!
Digestion, prebiotic, bifidus prodigesis, actiregularis, low fat, 98% fat-free, no artificial colours (they forgot to mention flavouring though), and on and on they go.
After scanning the food labels of some of them I was inspired to buy a few and share my thoughts on them. From the brands I eat to ones I wouldn’t feed my cat with (if I had one of course). Continue reading
