Small changes, big nourishment

The food we choose throughout the day shapes our energy, clarity, and overall wellbeing. Choosing more whole, unprocessed foods while reducing ultra-processed products can support steadier energy, better focus, and long-term health. Small, consistent changes in your daily eating habits can create space for improved health and wellbeing, for you and your family. 

Real stories, real change 
Your colleagues are already testing how small food habit changes can make a difference. In the film Food – “Fuel for the body”, Mathias takes on the “Cut the chemistry” experiment by cutting out ultra-processed food for 25 days. Christina, Lis and Anita try the “Cut the sugar” experiment and notice changes in their energy, mood and everyday wellbeing.

WATCH THE FILM below to join the experiments.

Fuel for the body  
Science shows that a high sugar intake can trigger glucose spikes, leading to energy crashes, a poorer mood, and increased hunger. Also, high consumption of ultra-processed foods is linked to poorer mood and a higher risk of depression and anxiety. By reducing it, you can experience fewer cravings, better appetite control, and more stable energy levels over time.*

Try simple changes to your food choices for a lasting impact on your energy and health. Aim for foods your great-grandmother would recognise—simple, real ingredients.

"Cut the sugar" experiment

• Avoid products where sugar, syrup, glucose or fructose is among the first three ingredients, e.g. candy, chocolate, cake, ice cream, sweetened cereals

• Avoid sugary drinks including juice, sodas, energy drinks, ice coffee etc.

"Cut the chemistry" experiment

• Avoid products with ingredients your grandmother would not recognise, e.g. E-numbers and additives

• Avoid “light” and sugar free products as they contain artificial sweeteners and other highly processed ingredients.

• Only eat products with maximum 5 ingredients on the ingredients list.
