Why I Still Love Tinned Sardines
Today, I was reminded of one of my first ventures into recording videos and creating my YouTube channel, Peyton Principles Natural Health.

I have always aimed to provide realistic, easy-to-understand educational videos, and this very short two-minute video really does just that.
It’s called Why I Love Tinned Sardines
Why This Old Video Is Still Relevant Today
So why did I think of this video today?
Well, I ate a tin of sardines with my salad at lunchtime.
They are such an easy store cupboard staple. They are high in protein, the tin I had contains 23g, and most importantly, they are really rich in the essential fatty acids EPA and DHA.
These are the omega-3 fats I talk about so often because they are so important for health.
A Simple, Affordable Source of Essential Fats
Funnily enough, the video shows the same brand and “flavour” as the one I chose today: Parmentier Provence Herbs in extra virgin olive oil.

No cheap and pro-inflammatory seed oils.
No added extras for flavour.
Just sardines, olive oil and herbs.
And at just £2 a tin, they are an excellent way to bring those essential fats into your diet, especially compared with something like wild Alaskan salmon.
They are Atlantic Portuguese sardines, and as I visit Portugal frequently, I know how fabulous these sardines are. They are a true staple of the Portuguese diet.
The Video Made Me Smile
The video did make me smile.
My hair is all over the place, and I’m in my old kitchen that we had replaced in late 2019, just before Covid struck.
But the message is still important. Tinned sardines are simple, affordable, nourishing and easy to keep in the cupboard.
So please do give the video a watch.
Looking Ahead to August
I can’t believe we’re moving into August.
I’ll miss the long, light, warm sunny days, although we desperately need rain, especially fresh grass for my horse.
August is typically a slower month, although I’ve just booked four new clients in for initial consultations next week.
But please don’t put off contacting me.
I have capacity for new clients in the second half of August, and it’s ideal to act now rather than wait until September, when typically it really does get very busy.
