It’s that time of the year again. The day you honour and celebrate that one irreplaceable special person in your life. Your mother. Are you looking for those special and unique Mother’s Day presents to give mother this year? Why not make it something healthy. I mean something that would get her started on more healthy habits. Ranging from a meal, a recipe book, a cookware set or exercise. Here are a few ideas: 

 

A Fitbit

A Fitbit is an activity tracker. It is a wireless technology device that takes data. The Fitbit counts the number of steps you take in a day, the calories you burnt that day, the number of floors you climbed, the length of time you were active and even knows the type of activity you engaged in. It also tells you the amount of kilometres you walked in a day, the length and type of sleep you had. You can also use it to keep track of your weight gain or loss. Food and water intake can be recorded and monitored with the aid of a Fitbit. The Fitbit helps you engage in healthy habits without putting stress on you. This is the ideal present for mother on her special day! 

Here are some Fitbit types to choose from: (1) The charge 2 (2) The Alta or (3) The Alta HR to get one click here. 

 

Saladmaster set

The Saladmaster cookware set is the perfect present for your mother. She will absolutely love it! A Saladmaster set is a set of cookware made of 3 layers of metal. The inner part of the cookware, which is the part our food comes in contact with is made of 316 titanium. This means mummy’s food will never be contaminated with metal. This cookware prevents toxins from getting into our food. Saladmaster cooks at 86 degrees centigrade, locking in our food nutrients. It is a great heat conductor, it acts like an oven, you can even bake a cake on your burner. Saladmaster cooks in less time than the ordinary cookware saving you precious time. Get one for mummy, she will forever thank you for it. To order a set, send me an email: juliet@keephealthyafricandiet.com

 

Healthy Hamper 

Another lovely present for mummy will be a basket full of goodies, not the sweet and chocolate kind but a basket full of items that will keep mummy in good health. Let the hamper have some healthy items like; Fruit tea, honey, fruit sugar, dark chocolate, Oat cookies, dried fruits, garlic, kitchen scales, walnuts and almonds. Remember to decorate the basket with some beautiful ribbons and put in it a nice Mother’s Day card! 

 

Recipe Book 

I’m sure mummy would love to try cooking and making some unique meals or drinks. Get her some unique recipe books. Some suggestions are: Smoothie recipes  – Salad recipes – low calorie meals or low fat meals.

 

Gym membership 

Exercise is one of the best things to engage in for a healthier you. Recent research shows that some form of exercise actually reverse the aging process.

Going to a gym will help mummy keep up with the routine of regular exercise. She doesn’t have to do too much at a time, her exercise just has to be consistent.
