Can we talk about 4pm?

Hi Salt Nutrition by Simply Flourish fam,

Have you ever noticed that some afternoons just feel a little heavier? Not every day, and not with every child, but sometimes there’s a definite shift between school pick-up and dinner time.

Tears come quicker. Small things feel very big.

By late afternoon:
• Blood sugar is naturally dipping
• Minerals have been used up through the day
• Nervous systems are overstimulated
• Hydration is lower than we realise
• The body is beginning its transition into the evening

And parents feel it too.

You’ve worked, driven, planned, responded, given. Of course there can be a dip.

Instead of immediately reacting, it can help to gently ask:

Does my child need fuel?
Do they need hydration?
Do they need movement - or calm?
Do I?

A protein-rich snack.
Mineral support.
Ten minutes outside.
A bath.
Soft music while preparing dinner.
A few slow breaths together.

Small, supportive shifts can change the tone of the entire evening.

That’s one of the reasons I formulated Salt Kids Recharge and Salt Kids Plant Protein - simple mineral or protein support to help replenish what active, growing bodies use throughout the day. No spikes, no crashes. Just steady support.

A little extra love in March 🤍

With love,
Minette
