A nutritionist guide - a day of Ancient + Brave

 

We are passionate about the transformative potential of rituals. 

Ancient + Brave products not only offer nutritional support but allow you that moment to pause and nourish yourself throughout the day. 

We've meticulously designed our entire range of blends to seamlessly slot into your daily routine - reinvigorating, renourishing, and re-energising your mind and body from dusk to dawn. 

Like an orchestra, each element contributes to the harmony.

We have curated an example of how you may wish to incorporate our blends into your daily routine. We, of course, wouldn’t necessarily recommend all of this in one day, and every day may look different, this simply serves as a helpful guide for inspiration. 

☀️ rise ☀️

7am - Rise from your slumber and enjoy a refreshing glass of True Hydration

Your body will be slightly dehydrated when you wake. Replenish your skin, mind and digestion with electrolytes. Inspired by the natural electrolytes found in coconut water, True Hydration is an intelligent formula which combines key minerals crafted for rapid rehydration. Taking a mindful morning moment to savour a glass of True Hydration is a simple yet effective ritual that will leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated throughout your day.

8am - Enjoy breakfast alongside your favourite coffee with a scoop of True/Wild collagen, or you could enjoy our pre-blended Coffee + Collagen, or Radiant Collagyn for plant based diets. 

Upgrading your morning coffee with a serving of True or Wild collagen ensures an intake of protein and nutritional sustenance - a natural way to nourish the whole body and skin from within.

If you are following a plant based diet, Radiant Collagyn will provide collagen specific amino acids, plant proteins and botanicals to support collagen formation and renewal. 

🌱midday 🌱

12:30 - Incorporate a drizzle of MCT oil into your midday meal for an energy lift.

Medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) are easily digested and rapidly absorbed by the body where they can be used as a quick source of energy, for an afternoon boost. Research suggests that MCTs provide cognitive benefits - perfect for help with mental clarity and focus.

3pm - Post lunch time sweet cravings? A cup of Cacao + Collagen will hit the spot. 

As blood sugar levels start to naturally dip a few hours after lunch, you may feel like you want to reach for the sugar. To help satisfy your sweet desires, enjoy a mindful brew of Cacao + Collagen which will feel like an elevated hot chocolate. Added Ashwagandha will also help to ease the impact of the afternoon rush, as this herb is renowned for its ability to help us cope with stress. 

💤 rest 💤

9pm - It is time to close the book on your day with your night time companion - True Nightcap. 

True Nightcap is a dreamy nutrient-dense tonic formulated with ingredients known to support our body's natural sleep processes. Key nutrients like Magnesium, Choline and L-Glycine function to support the maintenance of sleep promoting neurotransmitters. Grab your journal and savour each sip, enjoying the gentle zest of lemon and the comforting warmth of ginger, soothing both your body and mind before bed.
