But her love of the popular milk drink, which is packed with tapioca balls, ended with her in hospital and hundreds of undigested black, chewy

I swear I dream about food. I wake up excited to eat each and every day! I’ll typically wake up around 6:30 am and go for a nice 20-30 minute walk at the gym, to get my body moving and to wake myself up for the day ahead. During the working week I like to

There are many benefits that come with slapping on a smile, including, but not limited to: less stress, more success and better relationships. But it seems that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

It’s time to ditch that evening chamomile tea for a smooth Cabernet Sauvignon blend. Drinking two glasses of red wine before bed could actually help you lose weight, according to two new studies by Washington State and Harvard Medical School. Apparently, there’s a polyphenol called resveratrol in red wine that transforms ‘white fat’ into ‘beige fat’ (beige

Losing weight from any part of your body can be hard, as many of us know all too well. But the good news is, shedding belly fat can be a tiny bit easier than slimming down your hips, thighs, or other parts of your body. That’s because women tend to store more temporary fat in their bellies.

Growing up, I was always overweight.   I never exercised, and I found most of my comfort through food—and not the healthy stuff; my diet was carbs, carbs, and more carbs.

Chances are, if you’re Googling ‘what to do if you break your diet’, your health plans derailed a bit. You’re only human. First things first, it’s important to remember life is about balance, and so a weekend spent eating your very favourite food really isn’t the end of the world. In fact, it’s good for the soul.

Growing up, I was always an active person: I played a sport every season in high school, all while eating whatever I wanted—ice cream, cakes, cookies, you name it—whenever I wanted. That athleticism is why I joined the Air Force as soon as I turned 17—but, in 2013 everything changed. I had two back-to-back accidents

I was five years old when I had my first migraine. When my parents took me to the doctor, they told them these “headaches” would go away as I got older. They didn’t. As I got older, the migraines got worse. The debilitating pain would come at least once a week, and when I was

Eat a grape, lose weight. It would be awesome if weight loss were that simple. But, alas, no one food can magically deliver all of your weight-loss goals on a silver platter. (Shucks.) Instead, healthy weight loss is all about making a lot of small changes to your nutrition habits—boosting your intake of certain foods, cutting back

Whether getting in butt-kicking shape for her role in Divergent or eating clay in the name of ‘detoxification,’ Shailene Woodley is no stranger to pushing her body to the limits. But when it came to prepping for the new flick Adrift she was especially disciplined.  Speaking with The Times, the 26-year-old opened up about the

Kim Kardashian undoubtedly has one of the most talked about figures in the world. So when her personal nutritionist, Colette Heimowitz, who is also the Vice President of Education and Nutrition at nutrition and dieting company, Atkins, revealed to Elite Daily a sneak peek into the daily eating habits she and Kim swear by, we were intrigued….and hopeful it

The world once demonised fat. But recently, the nutrient is rising above its bad-for-you reputation. That’s just one reason the ketogenic diet is becoming popular again—eating all the fat you want sounds like a great thing, right? But the keto diet also severely restricts the amount of carbohydrates you can eat. Anywhere from 60 to 80 percent

Just one look at her lifestyle blog will tell you Gwyneth Paltrow is the go-to girl for weird wellness fads. From a 24-carat gold dildo to ‘spirit truffles,’ her Goop-spruiked goodies range from being kinda comical to just downright bizarre. But contrary to what you’re probably thinking when it comes to her daily diet she’s

BEFORE: 138kg AFTER: 61kg   I grew up in a home that did not put a focus on healthy eating habits or the importance of physical activity. I played sports when I was younger, but once I grew into my teenage years, I gave those activities up, turning to a “party” lifestyle and was more focused
