General kitchen advice

Buy Local Food : The most local food of all comes from your own garden. Plant a new garden, enlarge the one you already have, or extend your growing season by using row covers and cloches.

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.

Weight loss info

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) weight loss regime is linked to the gi index, a list of food types and a score illustrating the rapidity that the glucose of the food gets transformed to glucose in your bloodstream. The believe is that long-acting food types (ie those with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to take in less food without feeling you are missing out.
It's also extremely beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI foods are useful in minimizing increases in blood sugar levels.
