The philosophy here at Nu O’Clock is to give a boost to health in all its forms. And with Valentine’s Day nearly here, we’ve put together a suitably romantic package for you.

Romantic – but lite

Strawberry and chocolate duo

Low in calories, and as aphrodisiac as you could want, chocolate-coated strawberries have become THE essential romantic dessert.

A little square of happiness

Do you fancy a snack that will give a boost to your mood, and your other half’s? Think chocolate! Obviously something to be eaten in moderation, because despite its virtues, a 100g bar contains about 500 (kilo)calories.

Heart-shaped cookies

For Valentine’s Day, surprise him/her with a home-baked cookie. There’s nothing easier to make, they’re lite and very tasty!

Shopping for gifts? Think well-being

A massage

Why not give a moment of total relaxation? It’s an opportunity to have some quality time, to leave the daily routine behind, and jettison stress, and all without gaining an ounce. A great way to celebrate this day without a smidgen of guilt!

A coaching session

Looking for an original and useful gift for a sport-loving partner, or one who could do with some motivation? Give them a coaching session. Success guaranteed!

A smartwatch

This contemporary accessory will help your angel keep fit. And with the huge choice now on the market, you will definitely find a model he/she likes.

Think love, think health

Three of love’s health benefits that you didn’t know about!

Love, a natural painkiller

Just looking at a photo of the one you love reduces pain, by activating a particular zone in your brain.

Love, a weight-loss ally

When you’re in love, your appetite doesn’t obey the usual rules. The secret of this natural appetite suppressant is a hormone that your body produces when you fall in love – phenylethylamine or phenethylamine. Its special power is that it reduces appetite, and makes you a little hyperactive too.

Love brings out our underlying qualities

When you feel those butterflies in your stomach, you get more optimistic, more generous, more tolerant and more open. Basically, you see life through rose-tinted glasses!
