Kelly says…

I love to make my own muesli as you can add your own combination of nuts and seeds to really make it work for you. You’ll see I’ve added quite a lot of cinnamon here and that’s no mistake – it’s great for indigestion, boosts the metabolism (which will help with weight loss) and tastes fantastic, too. 


Kelly’s nutritional tip…

I like adding pumpkin seeds
to my muesli as they can help to lower blood sugar levels as well as being high in fibre and magnesium, making them great for bowel health.
