‘Eat With Six Senses’ programme offers new approach to food and nutrition
Following the ‘Sleep with Six Senses’ programme, Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas has announced the launch of ‘Eat with Six Senses’ – a healthy eating programme designed to benefit both body and planet.
Building on the group’s Integrated Wellness concept, Eat with Six Senses will encourage hotel guests to make healthier menu choices, and will be launched from March and rolled out during 2018.
The programme focuses on quality, balance and fresh whole foods made from scratch. Chefs will create hearty and healthy menus while avoiding things like flavour enhancers, lectins, lactose, gluten and sugar.
They will also choose ingredients and preparation methods that promote a healthy microbiome to offer better digestion and absorption of nutrients while boosting the immune system.
Eat with Six Senses is based on the principles of natural ingredients that are both local and sustainable, and ‘less is more’, to help guests to reconnect with food that is both good for them, and for the world around them.
Each Six Senses resort is reinforcing its relationships with local farmers, producers and suppliers who are committed to responsible sourcing and seasonality. Six Senses will ensure that ethical practices in raising animals and avoiding at-risk species are adhered to.
Each Six Senses resort cultivates its own organic vegetable garden. Six Senses Yao Noi in Thailand, for example, already has its own free-range chicken farm to supply fresh eggs, while two other resorts have established mushroom huts.
The energy footprint of importing branded drinking water has been eliminated, with each Six Senses resort having its own reverse-osmosis plant to produce still and sparkling mineral water, which is provided to guests in reusable, recyclable glass bottles.
The programme will also be implemented in all employee dining outlets in an effort to create a culture of health and wellness through healthier meal choices.
Six Senses Integrated Wellness was developed in collaboration with Dr Steven Gundry, Dr Michael J Breus and Dr Mehmet Oz, members of the Six Senses Wellness Board.
Dr Gundry, an American cardiac surgeon and founder of The Centre for Restorative Medicine, said: “With the introduction of Eat with Six Senses, guests not only eat well, they feel better.
"They are also supported with valuable tools and information to help them make positive lasting life adjustments.”
