Shinrin-Yoku 🌳 or forest bathing. Regeneration, rejuvenation and relaxation. Being in a forest has many health benefits, among others a higher oxygen concentration in our blood cells, reduction of stress hormones, lower heart rate and blood pressure. It's a magical mini retreat for our body, mind and senses. Dive in, smell the various scents, feel the vibrant energy and stimulate your senses 💚

Have you ever tried to track how much sugar you ea

Have you ever tried to track how much sugar you eat during a regular day? If so, did you know that the average sugar intake of a first-world-country adult is somewhere between 60 and 80 grams per day, while the recommended amount doesn’t exceed 50 grams? Apparently, we are all far away from the recommended amount and eating too much sugar.

Knowing that sugar is a tricky topic, as most of us love to indulge and enjoy something sweet from time to time, it is also important to be aware of our consumption.

How can we recognize sugar in our foods? How do we cultivate conscious consumption? And what else is helpful in order for us to get our sugar intake under control?

Read the answers to these questions in my latest blog post Sweet Addiction – How to Get Your Sugar Intake Under Control.

You have even more ideas on how to tackle sugar addiction? Feel free to leave a comment either on my blog or on Instagram.

Have a sweet day ;)

Be merry. Be green.

Five years ago I dared to hop on a great adventure

Five years ago I dared to hop on a great adventure by starting my food blog Merry Green. I had no education whatsoever in the food industry, but a great vision of what I wanted to create 💚

Five years later, I am a certified nutrionist and a collector of so many beautiful memories and lessons, which have all made me rich and grateful 💕

My blog has not only broadened my horizon on so many levels, but also brought me to beautiful places, such as...

🥥 the food studio of Bauer Media in Hamburg after being one out of 10 winners of the Comté cheese contest
🍒 the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo, Italy
🍍 Terra Madre in Torino
🥦 the EAT Lancet Commission introducing the Planetary Health Diet in Melbourne
🍄 the culinary treasures of Southeast Asian cuisine
🥑 my parents' beautiful garden and so many more.

Along my journey, I have also come to meet wonderful people and make friends with fellow bloggers, inspiring overachievers and people from around the world who cherish good food and share their visions of a better, healthier and cleaner future 💫👥

I am so grateful for each of them and for all the help and support I was blessed to receive along the way 🙏🏾

The picture features my very first rookie post "Perfect green smoothie for beginners", which I still love and recommend 😉 (link in bio)

Even though I am not the master of frequency on my blog, I always put all my heart in my posts, take all pictures by myself unless stated otherwise and try to stay true to myself without being dogmatic or hypocritical 💚

Stay tuned for a new post, which is due later today... 👌🏽

🧡 The healing properties of turmeric never fail

🧡 The healing properties of turmeric never fail to astound me. The herbaceous bright orange plant from the ginger family is highly anti-inflammatory and helps in preventing dementia, chronic pain syndromes and bowel cancer. Consider using it daily, fresh or grounded, in your meals, drinks or as a supplement, though it is recommended to consume the whole plant. As @doctors_kitchen teaches us:

"A single component [in this case: curcumin] is not likely to be responsible for their health benefits; it's the complex arrangement of molecules in whole ingredients that we find in nature."

Ingredients for turmeric latte 🧡

🔸Ground turmeric
🔸Ground ginger
🔸Ground cinnamon
🔸Ground nutmeg
🔸Ground cardamom
🔸Ground black pepper (to better absorb the curcumin)
🔸A milk of your choice (I use oat milk)
🔸Some honey or maple syrup
