Leafy greens like kale and spinach are vitamin and mineral powerhouses. Yet, on their own, they can’t easily provide one of the most important minerals of all: iron, which boosts your energy and metabolism but is hard to absorb from plant sources. Enter strawberries. They’re high in vitamin C (one cup has a full day’s worth), a nutrient that helps your body take in and use iron. Flavour-wise, the sweetness of the berries is the perfect contrast to the slight bitterness of the veggie. Together on this multilayered toast topped with cheese (which provides protein), they deliver the swoon- worthy combo of crunchy, creamy, savoury and sweet.

That’s the word from scientists at the University of Chicago.

So allow yourself a luxurious weekend reboot after a sleep-starved week, says researcher Josiane Broussard. Just as long as you don’t make this game of catch-up a habit.

CACI Non-Surgical Face Lift For: Sagging skin Where: St. Gregory Spa, Level 4, Pan Pacific Singapore, 7 Raffles Boulevard, tel: 6826-8140 Price: $220 Duration: 60 minutes How: After cleansing and toning, the therapist applies a firming gel and uses two handheld wands that transmit microcurrents to pinch and lift muscles on my neck and jawline. Next, she does the same to my face for 20 minutes. To further target frown lines, two microcurrent-emitting electrodes are attached to my forehead for 10 minutes. After they’re removed, the wands return – this time at a faster pace that promises to strengthen facial muscles to keep them lifted. Lastly, hydrating and anti-ageing skincare are applied to my face and neck. Verdict: An overall pain-free experience, save for slight prickly sensations, this made my skin look plumper, smoother and firmer immediately with no redness. My eye, mouth and brow areas also looked slightly lifted. – IO

They’re each extremely healthy in their own way, but together, cruciferous vegetables and a lean cut of steak are a powerful combination , says Keri Gans, a dietitian and the author of The Small Change Diet: 10 Steps to a Thinner, Healthier You. In addition to protein and iron, beef is rich in selenium, a mineral that boosts the immune system, regulates thyroid hormones, and protects against cancer. Broccoli, radishes and other cruciferous veggies also have cancer-fighting power, thanks to high levels of the compound sulforaphane. Pair the two superstars and you’ve got a delicious healthy dish.

The simple act of admiring the remarkable intricacy of a flower or the vastness of a starry sky can detox your body of stress better than just about any other mental break. In a University of California, Berkeley study in the US, people had fewer markers of inflammation in their body – a side effect of stress – after experiencing awe than they did after a positive feeling such as joy. “Emotions like wonder and amazement are linked with an increased sense of well-being,” says researcher Amie Gordon, who notes that it doesn’t take much to tap into this effect. In a different study, participants said they felt awestruck once every two weeks; some even felt that way nearly every day.
