Ever wondered what goes on inside a nutritionist's fridge? We asked Remedy Nutritionist Jacq Alwill for a peek into hers. Here's what she said she can't live without!
Plenty of fresh vegetables
...and fruit on the kitchen table. These are definitely the foundations for mine/family’s diet, and feature in every meal and snack. If you aim for 30 different plant points each week that’s a great way to ensure your diet is diverse and acquires nutrients from a variety of sources.
Prepped food
Leftovers that can be reheated for fast lunches, boiled eggs, steamed vegetables (the basics for quick meal pull togethers with some flavour pumpers to bring up the joy of the meal), snacks ready for the kids/school run including gummy jellies (these are orange and they love them), overnight soaked oats (soaked in kombucha last week and coffee this week - variety is the spice of life!)
Fermented foods and drinks
Including Remedy Kombucha, kraut, kimchi, miso, yoghurt and Remedy Shots. Ginger Lemon is one of the OG kombucha flavours by Remedy and to this day a family favourite. I love the ginger in the winter as well for the anti-inflammatory properties infused into this gut loving, fizzy, booch refreshment.
I also keep Remedy Shots on hand - there are 4 in total, we have 3 in the fridge atm - Digestion, Sleep and Immune+. These are made with a base of Remedy’s long aged kombucha brew, then boosted with functional ingredients to support your health needs. Remedy Kombucha and Shots do not contain any sugar (win!) as the slow brewing process of the kombucha, brews out all the sugar leaving us with a tasty drink, full of live cultures and organic acids to support gut health.

As a Nutritionist with a special interest in women’s health, I always have the ingredients on hand that I educate on, so I can not only educate, but create as well. Nutrition is learned very differently when it is incorporated into a food context so I do my best always to educate in that way… and with great taste, naturally.
