Bone Broth

In the process of cleaning my diet up even more this past year I have come across how unhealthy some common everyday products are. So many unassuming foods contain unnecessary, toxic ingredients. My target today is your regular stock cubes/pots. Homemade stock contains a plethora of beneficial properties, whereas stock cubes and pots don’t contain anything beneficial. The only benefit they have is convenience, but its so easy to make your own stock once you know how, and its much more rewarding! Whether its chicken, pork, beef, fish or vegetable, broth is one of the most nutrient dense ingredients and it can be used as the foundation for stews, soups and even used to boil your rice and other grains. Im an advocate of reducing waste wherever possible, especially if something has been killed to be eaten, and the bones are packed full of goodness that usually goes to waste. Chances are if your reading this then your probably interested in healthy eating. If thats the case then tune in to Channel 4 tonight at 2000hrs (Monday 9th May). Its a program called Eating Well With Hemsley + Hemsley, and its where I get a lot of my foodspiration!Continue Reading

How Toxic is Nutella?…And Some Healthy Alternatives

One of my previous posts about the many benefits of turmeric and how to incorporate it into your diet proved very popular, so I’m going to do some more foodie type posts. A quick update on me; last week of chemo was far from fun but I was well enough to keep active and get out for walks with the dog so that was good. Apart from the standard illness, fatigue and feeling poisoned I’ve been holding up well. It was a very quiet weekend for me as the majority of my mates were all on a stag do, which is now the 4th one I have missed. So instead of feeling too sorry for myself I treated myself to my first iMac. From now on you will find me sat in Starbucks typing away with my fellow writers!Continue Reading
