Hola! I can't deny sitting on a balcony in the Spanish sunshine writing this weeks newsletter is rather pleasant! I believe you are now experiencing some better weather at home too at last!

not yet ideal for progressing our paddleboarding adventure with Frank the Vizsla! So t's a case of all the gear , and a little idea. Hopefully I will have better news on this next week before we return home. I have been running with Gary and Frank in the mornings, alternating this with revisiting and thoroughly enjoying some of the HiiT Sessions on replay in Lindsey Fitness Home HiiT.

Monks Walk Classes Saturday 6th July will be at The Ridgeway Academy Sports Centre for the HiiT and Walkfit Classes The Nutritional Health Benefits of Eating Organic Eggs**The Nutritional Health Benefits of Eating Organic Eggs**In recent years, there has been a growing trend towards consuming organic foods, driven by a desire for healthier and more sustainable dietary choices. Among these, organic eggs have emerged as a popular option for health-conscious consumers. But what sets organic eggs apart from their
conventional counterparts, and what specific nutritional benefits do they offer? This article delves into the nutritional advantages of incorporating organic eggs into your diet. What Are Organic Eggs? Organic eggs come from hens that are raised in accordance with organic farming standards. These standards typically include access to outdoor spaces, a diet free from synthetic
pesticides and fertilisers, and the prohibition of antibiotics and synthetic hormones. The hens are also often fed organic, non-GMO feed. Nutritional Profile of Organic Eggs Organic eggs are a powerhouse of essential nutrients. Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll find in a typical organic egg: - **High-Quality
Protein**: Eggs are renowned for their excellent protein content. A single large egg contains around 6 grams of high-quality protein, which is essential for muscle repair, growth, and overall body function.
- **Vitamins and Minerals**: Organic eggs are rich in a variety of vitamins and minerals. They are particularly high in B vitamins (B2, B6, B12), vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin A. They also contain essential minerals like
iron, zinc, and phosphorus.
- **Healthy Fats**: Organic eggs provide essential fatty acids, including omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for heart health and brain function. Studies suggest that organic eggs may have higher levels of omega-3s compared to conventional eggs.
- **Antioxidants**: Organic eggs contain antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which are beneficial
for eye health. These antioxidants help protect against age-related macular degeneration and cataracts.
Health Benefits of Organic Eggs - **Heart Health**: The presence of omega-3 fatty acids in organic eggs can contribute to cardiovascular health by reducing triglyceride levels and lowering the risk of heart disease. Additionally, organic eggs have a better
balance of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids, which is crucial for maintaining heart health.
- **Weight Management**: Eggs are a great source of high-quality protein, which can help with weight management by promoting a feeling of fullness and reducing overall calorie intake. Including organic eggs in your diet can aid in maintaining a healthy weight.
- **Bone Health**: Organic
eggs are one of the few natural sources of vitamin D, which is essential for calcium absorption and bone health. Consuming organic eggs can help maintain strong bones and reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
- **Brain Health**: The choline present in organic eggs is vital for brain health and cognitive function. Choline is a key component of cell membranes and is necessary for the production of neurotransmitters involved in memory and mood
regulation.
- **Eye Health**: The antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin found in organic eggs are known to support eye health. Regular consumption of these antioxidants can help protect the eyes from damage caused by blue light and oxidative stress.
- **Immune Support**: The vitamins and minerals in organic eggs, particularly vitamin A, vitamin D, and zinc, play a
crucial role in supporting the immune system. A robust immune system is essential for defending the body against infections and illnesses.
Environmental and Ethical Considerations Beyond the nutritional benefits, choosing organic eggs also supports sustainable and ethical farming practices. Organic farming methods promote biodiversity, reduce pollution, and ensure
better animal welfare. By opting for organic eggs, consumers can contribute to a more sustainable food system. In Conclusion... Organic eggs offer a myriad of nutritional benefits, making them a valuable addition to a balanced diet. They provide high-quality protein, essential vitamins and minerals, healthy fats, and antioxidants that support overall health and
well-being. Moreover, choosing organic eggs aligns with environmentally friendly and ethical farming practices. So, the next time you’re food shopping, consider reaching for organic eggs to nourish your body and support sustainable agriculture. READY STEADY.....RESET!

Thank you so very, very much to those who have so very kindly sponsored me already and also members of the running club who signed up to the EUROS 2024 Sweepstake by way of donation too! I am already over halfway to
my required entry target which I hope to exceed of course ahead of the event this September XXX The AJ Bell Great North Run is the world's biggest and best half marathon, with 60,000 runners taking on the 13.1-mile route from Newcastle to South Shields. I have managed to secured a place in this years run on Sunday 8th September. I will be running for the
Meningitis Research Foundation, a leading international charity, working to defeat meningitis and septicaemia since 1989 Their vision is of a world free from meningitis and septicaemia. A world where effective vaccinations can protect everyone from meningitis and septicaemia. A world where people who do get ill, often very seriously, get the most effective diagnosis and treatment possible. A world where those affected by meningitis and
septicaemia, their families and communities have the best support possible. I myself was struck down very suddenly with Meningitis at Christmas 2015, and was fortunate that a rapid, correct diagnosis and subsequent treatment saved me from this debilitating, and sometimes life threatening condition. By securing a place in the run for MRF, I need to raise much needed funds for them to continue their amazing work. I am as always hugely grateful if you would like to sponsor me Lindsey Fitness Classes THIS SATURDAY LIVE FROM SPAIN ONLINE in Lindsey Fitness Fitness HOME 9.00am - 30 Minute
