LUNCH
Eat lunch between 12 and 2pm. This should really be the heaviest meal of the day, with lots of greens, salads, sprouts and vegetables.
SUPPER
Have supper between 6 and 8pm. The golden rule is never eat after 8pm. Whatever you eat then just sits in your system fermenting, and in turn converts into fat and weight gain. This is when you should eat your good fats to repair while you sleep, and heal the system. Try to include avocado, salad dressings and nuts.
Drink at least two litres of natural water slowly through the day. Don’t drink it all in the morning and none in the afternoon.
SNACK ON SUPER SNACKS
Need some ideas? Here are Siri’s easy snacks: 
– A selection of raw vegetables – try a crunchy mix of carrot and white radish, plus creamy courgette.
– Handful of goji berries and cacao nibs. Goji’s are sweet and cacao nibs are a chocolate treat!
– A piece of fruit – any kind, any time, from a banana to a handful of berries.
– Small bag of rocket to snack on.
