I will emphasise for now on anti-inflammatory recipes as all diseases originate from chronic inflammation. (even genetic ones!). I will also put in light and easy recipes as summer is here, or around the corner for those in the Northern Hemisphere.

I will also put in Japanese recipes and their health benefits. I am working closely with a Japanese friend who is a self-educated chef and does super easy kids-friendly recipies. We used to live next to each other and my daughter loved her food so much! As they are both healthy and easy I decided to include them on my page - under sensory (my kids recipes easy on the senses). You can read all about that on my page too (the importance of making food attractive for kids - sensory wise.

POPEYE SMOOTHIE (DETOX) — EmblaTorfa I recommend drinking this smoothie from time to time in the morning or mid-morning if you’ve had an heavy dinner the day before or in case of constipation or bloating.

Hi health concerned friends!

I have decided to switch all my blogs and recipes into English due to demand! 🥳

I have kept it in Icelandic as I saw a gap in the market there - meaning lack of information on alternative medicine. Though I am switching my social media channels to English I keep giving consultation in Icelandic (and Swedish, German and Spanish)

I belief / hope this won't affect anyone negatively as most Icelanders understand English anyway.

Thanks and stay healthy!

P.s. the detox recipe below is both for adults and children. Remember; detox is for everyone and doesn't involve anything drastic. It is highly recommended when we feel bloated or we suffer from constipation...or if we feel we overate the day before! 😝
