Planning a night in?  We love leveling up a night in front of Netflix with a snack of popcorn.  It provides you with some good fibre and healthy carbs, plus it's so easy to make something special with a few extra ingredients.  Whether you're craving something sweet or savoury, we've got you covered for a great night in. While you're at it, check out our list of feel-good movies for when you need a pick me-up to start your evening or afternoon off right. 

Living with hypothryoidism or Hashimoto’s disease can lead to some pretty difficult symptoms like fatigue, joint and muscle pain, and having difficulty getting warm. The thyroid is a very important organ in your body as it controls your metabolism - essentially being like the engine in your car. If you deal with thyroid issues, chances are you’ve heard that certain foods are great for supporting thyroid health. And this is what dietitian Emily Kyle’s book The 30-Minute Thyroid Cookbook: 125 Recipes for Healing Hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s is all about. All of the recipes are designed to take 30 minutes or less, to help when you’re feeling worn down, with all recipes being gluten-free and dairy-free, and special labels for plant-based eaters, those on the elimination diet, and those going through the elimination protocol. Emily Kyle was nice enough to share one of her recipes from the book with us, a tasty berry smoothie that is packed with nutrients and works for a variety of diets.

Warm up and take a moment for yourself with one of these cozy and yummy warm drinks this autumn season.
