Eating healthy can often feel overwhelming, but with a few simple tricks and tips, it becomes much easier to manage.
Portion control is essential in any weight‑loss journey, yet portion‑size tools aren’t always available. Thankfully, the Zimbabwe Hand Jive is a simple, accessible guide you can use anywhere, anytime.
Using your own hand as a portion guide:
• Thumb → fats
• Fist → a serving of fruit or starches
• Palm → protein
• Two open hands → vegetables
With this easy method, you can control portion sizes no matter where you are.

Antioxidants
Antioxidants help protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals, harmful molecules that form when your body is exposed to substances such as smoke, pollution, or stress.
Examples of antioxidants include:
• Vitamin C
• Vitamin E
• Carotenoids
• Flavonoids
• Tannins
• Phenols
• Lignans
Including a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains in your daily eating can significantly increase your antioxidant intake. This may be especially beneficial for supporting your body against cancer, heart disease, and other chronic conditions.
Food is incredibly powerful when used well. We often call it “eating the rainbow"; adding different colours to your meals helps boost your antioxidant intake and supports your overall wellbeing.
For more personalised nutritional tips, chat to your nearest dietitian about how to incorporate healthy foods into your daily routine.
