When I was younger my mama would finish off most meals with a ‘Tutti Frutti’, a lovely fresh fruit salad as pudding instead of sugar laden cakes. A meal was not complete without one of these and I still always make one as part of my breakfast at the weekend. You don’t really hear the term ‘Tutti Frutti’ anymore, but I have such nostalgia for it that I still use it.
The sun is always shining when you eat tropical fruits, and they are so healthy that you can’t help but feel good when you eat them. They contain essential enzymes that support anti-inflammatory activity in your body and aid digestion. They are rich in vitamins, potassium, carotenoids and fibre, making them great for helping your body get rid of toxins, giving you healthy skin, hair and nails and supporting healthy joints.
