Melissa’s Wellness Journey & Inspiration

During Melissa’s youth and young adult years, she suffered from severe food allergies, and intolerances which led to some chronic conditions.  Also being overweight as a child and adolescent, she never felt good in her body and was quite unhappy. She had low energy levels, trouble focusing, and lots of anxiety. She decided I needed to make a drastic change in her life, to alleviate her chronic conditions, this is when she embarked on her wellness journey.

Later on in life, she was inspired to start her health and wellness blog MellyFit while travelling the world in 2018. She wrote about how to stay fit and healthy while on the road. The healing & healthy cuisines she discovered abroad intrigued her to learn more and dive deeper. Being able to heal her chronic symptoms and improve her well-being throughout her journey she decided she wanted to pursue a career in holistic nutrition and help others.

Want to work with Melissa on your health and wellness goals? She is now offering Nutritional Counselling IN-HOUSE here at Coco Market (through the back, 2nd Floor) Book Your Appointment Today!

Coco Market’s MellyFit Approved Products: 

‘boost your wellness journey and fuel your body right!’

Embarking on a journey towards a healthier lifestyle often begins with all the small choices we make in our everyday nutrition. In a world saturated with countless products all claiming to be the key to optimal health, it can be challenging to separate the truly beneficial from the merely trendy. 

For many of my clients, one of the most overwhelming steps they encounter on their health journey is learning to read food labels and ingredient lists. Not only are food labels and ingredient lists wordy and misleading, but a lot of us feel like we need to learn another language just to understand what the ingredients are!

Entering into a new year, it’s time to make informed choices that align with your wellness goals and bring you closer to the vibrant, energetic life you’re envisioning for yourself. 

These carefully selected items are designed to support your nutritional goals and stand out in supporting overall well-being. These products aren’t just popular, they’ve earned my stamp of approval.

Here are some of the highlights of my TOP 5 Products and why I picked them:

Alchemy - Sauerkraut

Here’s why I love it and recommend it: Sauerkraut is a fermented food, it's great for digestion, contributes to a healthy gut microbiome and a little goes a long way; All you need is about 2 tablespoons. You can eat it with any meal, add some to your sandwich, salad or bowl or eat it right out of the jar like I do! The best part is, every ingredient in this nutrient-packed jar is good for you and because it's processed directly from the fields of local farmers It’s got more nutrients than your average sauerkraut.

Primal Kitchen - Green Goddess Dressing

Here’s why I love it and recommend it: Sure, making your own dressing is great but sometimes life gets busy, and you need the convenience of a premade dressing or marinade. This one is whole 30, paleo and keto approved, contains no soy or dairy and has lots of flavours! 

Mid-Day Squares - Cookie Dough 

Here’s why I love it and recommend it: This sweet little square will satisfy any chocolate craving without spiking your blood sugar like a chocolate bar or cookie might and that's because it's got plenty of healthy fat and protein to balance out the carbs. You can keep these bars in your purse, car, gym bag or drawer at work to have handy when you need a quick snack on the go or don’t have time to make something. 

Lesser Evil - Sun Poppers 

Here’s why I love it and recommend it: It happens to the healthiest of us - the munchies! Whether you’re having some friends over, watching a movie or making dinner sometimes we need a salty, crunchy snack! These tasty treats will satisfy your salt craving and give you that crunch you’re looking for without the inflammatory oils and ingredients. They’re made with pumpkin and watermelon seed protein and brain-boosting avocado oil. 

Vital Proteins - Bovine Collagen 

Here’s why I love it and recommend it - It doesn’t get simpler than this, 1 ingredient - Bovine collagen. As we age, our body's ability to produce collagen diminishes and because our food is so processed it's often stripped out of the foods we eat. This collagen is easy to digest and helps with so many things from hair to skin and nails to joints. Your whole body will feel the benefits. I love that it can be added to cold or hot beverages and it has no taste so you can add it to your morning coffee, smoothie or a glass of water and you can even add it to baked goods.  

Incorporating some of these products into your diet is an easy and delicious way to prioritize your health and well-being. By making mindful choices, you’re not just satisfying a craving but also providing your body with the essential nutrients it needs to thrive.

Remember, a balanced and nutritious diet is the foundation of a healthy lifestyle. These Mellyfit Nutrition-approved products are convenient and wholesome additions to your daily meals making it easier to achieve your health and wellness goals. Whether you’re looking to boost your energy levels, support your immune system or maintain a healthy weight, the right food choices can make a significant impact. In the end, the key is to enjoy the process of nourishing your body and savouring the benefits that come with it.
