Tips to improve sleep | Henry Firth + Ian Theasby | Plant-powered breakfasts

Catch up with our latest issue "Why we all need to eat more plants" Henry Firth and Ian Theasby, founders of plant-based food brand BOSH!, chat about eating the rainbow, getting enough protein and why plants are the best place to be. Henry: "I think that, generally, a large proportion of the UK is missing out on fibre and the best source of it is obviously plants. Protein is another big one. Plant protein is a wonderful source of protein because it comes with fibre and loads of extra vitamins as well. Another huge benefit of eating plants is nutrient density. They're absolutely packed with nutrients like antioxidants and anti-inflammatories." Ian: "A great way to add more plants to every meal is a sprinkle of mixed seeds. They usually contain three or four different varieties, which gives you different plant points, texture and omegas." Read on here... Image of Henry Firth and Ian Theasby © Haarala Hamilton.

Closing date: 30 April 2026 The art of better sleep From light exposure to yogic breathing, wellbeing experts share some natural ways to improve your sleep quality. "What we eat in the evening can have a significant impact on sleep," says Zoe Hill, nutritional therapist. "A balanced meal with a source of protein, slow-releasing carbohydrates, plenty of vegetables and healthy fats helps keep blood sugar stable overnight. Fluctuations in blood sugar can trigger the stress response, making it harder to fall asleep or stay asleep. A light evening snack can support sleep, especially when it includes foods that naturally contain melatonin, a hormone that helps regulate the sleep-wake cycle. Tart cherries, goji berries, almonds, pistachios and walnuts are all good sources." "Even a short walk outside helps anchor your circadian rhythm and improves sleep timing later that night," says Chris Heywood, Master of Osteopathic Medicine. "Research shows that morning light suppresses melatonin and strengthens the cortisol awakening response, increasing daytime alertness and making it easier to fall asleep in the evening."
