Having raised two daughters while working several?jobs to help with making ends meet, single mum and nutritionist Cinzia Cozzolino, 52, knows it’s struggle to serve up healthy food everyday.
“I was busy attempting to make a living and here was my teenage daughter, Lana, rushing university without breakfast,” Cinzia says.
Recognising the need for a healthy breakfast, at 42 after her divorce, Cinzia returned to varsity to study nutrition, a matter about which she’d always felt passionate.
It was you need to towards The Smoothie Bombs, her now successful business, that wasthat’s developed at her kitchen bench this year.
“It’s as easy as blending fruit and coconut water with one bomb for one nutritious smoothie in contrast to having to buy expensive superfood powders,” Cinzia says.
“I started supplying clients, friends and cafes. Orders kept coming in, and it grew organically from that point.”
Her big break were available in 2019 when a distributor ordered 2400?balls to have a hotel in Dubai.
Cinzia used to be rolling the balls?hand.
“It was the perfect time to find a manufacturer who could take on growth with us,” she says. “When I saw the balls out of the production line as a beginner, I cried.”
Lana, 18, is actually running the business with her mum, taking care of social media and branding, while Nina, 23, used coding to generate the website.
“I’m excited to have turned my idea in to a product that makes good nutrition easy. We’re a legitimate family, attempting to make a difference,” Cinzia says.
Cinzia’s breakfast hacks
Fibre-full
A good breakfast contains fibre, along the lines of whole grains, a variety of vitamins and minerals from fruit or vegetables together with a serve of protein from nuts, seeds or eggs.
Whole fruit
Opt for the piece of fruit as an alternative to juice. The fibre in fruit enables you to release natural sugars evenly for energy daily.
Label love
Inspect the labels. Sugar content in cereal should really be under 5g per serve and fibre needs to be above 7g.
Mix ‘n’ match
Mix and match fruits and veggies for optimal nutrient intake, and to get kids’ tastebuds designed to variety.
Best butters
Use nut butters, that include almond or cashew, as an alternative to dairy butter. Peanut butter have elevated levels of protein and mostly contains good unsaturated fats.
Snack right
Make your personal fruit and nut mix as an alternative to buying sugary packaged snacks. You can find great recipes for healthy muesli bars online. They could be especially frozen for convenience.
Fresh is best
Food needs to taste beneficial to it to be enjoyed! For best taste, buy seasonal, fresh produce.
Routine rules
Setting up an uncomplicated morning routine is the vital thing. Mondays are smoothie days, Wednesdays are for avocado on wholemeal toast and Sundays are buckwheat pancake days.
The Smoothie Bombs may be found in five flavours and every one contain 10+ 100 % natural ingredients. Available online and then in all Chemist Warehouse stores.?
