There was a time I tried to fit every nutrient onto every plate. Broccoli for vitamin C, K, folate, potassium, sulforaphane, oily fish for Omega-3, vitamin D, eggs, avocado and yoghurt, all at once, because every meal felt like it had to count. The plates got fuller and fuller, and somewhere along the way I lost the point, anxiety took over.
What changed things for me was thinking in weeks instead. Your body stores some vitamins and needs others topped up as you go, so a varied week of real food quietly does what no single plate can.
This guide fits it all on two pages. It covers every essential nutrient, what each one does for you, the everyday foods that carry it, and roughly how often to eat them. There’s a section for women in midlife, plus an honest note on where food alone isn’t the whole answer (vitamin D through a British winter, for one). Print it, pop it on the fridge, and tick things off as the week goes by. You won’t hit every line every week, and you don’t need to.
