💪 Gym & Nutrition Tip: Don’t Trust the “Convenient” Ready Meal Tub ⚠️
Those meal deliveries with rice? Proper risky.
Bacillus cereus spores survive cooking, multiply like crazy at room temp, and produce toxins that even the microwave can’t destroy. One dodgy tub and you’re looking at serious food poisoning.
The plastic tubs trap heat, cool down too slowly, and let bacteria party. Plus, any food left on the counter with no lid gets showered in dust and airborne bacteria.
🔬 Microwaving plastic also leaches microplastics and chemicals into your food. And that chicken? Often pumped full of water, so the protein content is nowhere near what’s on the label.
If you’re doing CrossFit, kickboxing, boxing, bodybuilding or any high intensity training, high quality food should be your top priority.
✅ On the Isle of Wight, shop local:
• Harvey Browns in Arreton – top quality butchery & seasonal produce
• Isle of Wight Tomatoes – packed with vitamin A
• Farmhouse Fayre in Newport – non-GMO fruit & veg
• Briddlesford Farm – fresh milk, yoghurts & butter
• Lost Mill Bakery in Cowes – proper sourdough
Pro Tip: Convenience meals aren’t convenient when you’re stuck on the toilet for two days 😵💫 Meal prep yourself and stay in control!
Support local, eat clean, protect your gains!
