Food tips

Making your own lunch instead of buying from a sandwich shop saves on packaging, and could also save you approx £4 a day or £1,000 per year!


Buy Seasonal Food : Most food, from fruit to fish, has a season -a time when it is abundant and at its best. Knowledge about food's seasons was once essential to survival and became culturally ingrained over the centuries. Today, we have all but lost this accumulated wisdom, but it still matters! Buy local and seasonal to guarantee the best quality food you can get.


Diet info

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet system initially created by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet is not distinctly a fat reduction diet, but some people find that they really manage to lose body weight when following it.
The main theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you gain control of the amount of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which puts one's body in a state of balance which is an awful lot more healthy than it normally is, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'.
Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its best and, because of this, does not build up layers of fat.
The main technique of the zone system is to monitor and control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.
