I’ve recently started following Sarah Wilson’s blog. Sarah is an Aussie journalist and writes a Sunday newspaper column which I’ve enjoyed for some time. Her blog is a new addition, and one that I think you’ll find worth checking out. It strikes the perfect balance between amusing daily wonderment and the asking and answering of [...]

You’ve heard all the hype (and well-founded hype it is) about omega-3, and you know what you should be doing to add more of this essential fatty acid into your diet, but it’s sometimes easier said than done, isn’t it? After all, there’s only so much salmon and oily fish a person can eat besides [...]

“One quarter of what you eat keeps you alive, and three quarters keeps your doctor alive” Or so says Food Matters in this compelling 3-minute trailer. And whether or not the statement is especially accurate for you, the truth is that good health is not as simple or straightforward as what the media, mainstream nutrition experts, [...]

I don’t know about you, but there’s something about the promise of warmer weather that whets my appetite (sorry if you’re not in Melbourne like me but I’m sure you can still relate). Even the slightest hint of sunshine has me chomping at the bit. And not just for any old food, but for a [...]

The Problem With Nutritional Science

In my pre-giving-birth state of trying to rest more I’ve fallen into a somewhat embarrassing habit. I’ve been watching the evening current affairs shows. If you’ve ever been guilty of the same you’ll know that they’re worryingly addictive. Although, truth be told, not entirely rubbish. But what I saw mid last-week was nothing short of [...]

Are you sick of eating the same thing again and again for dinner? Want to learn more about cooking but not sure where to start? Or perhaps you’re already an avid chef in the making and, as such, always keen to add new ideas to your repertoire. I have to admit I naturally fall more [...]

Are You Unknowingly Swapping Food Porn For True Satisfaction?

When it comes to cooking and food preparation, we’re all looking for shortcuts. Am I right? Ways to make it easier, less expensive, more efficient, all the while retaining the best possible quality. But hey, if something’s gotta go, quality is often the simplest sacrifice. And who’s to say you can be blamed for not [...]

Did you know that your low-fat diet could secretly be killing you? You might think that you’re on the path of the virtuous by cutting calories and oil molecules at every turn, but the truth is that a deficiency of healthy fats kills more people every year than breast cancer. Sure made me stop and think [...]

How To Make Your Own Nut Milk

It could be that you’re lactose intolerant, or you might just be sick of dairy clogging you up and leaving you bloated. If intolerance is your problem then raw dairy is one great option and should leave your digestive system worry-free, but if – like me – you’re simply not a huge milk lover, then [...]

How To Design The Perfect Weekly Exercise Program

Kat — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 14:01:47 +0000

I just realized I’ve been doing something quite quite silly. And I really must apologize. You see, over the past 6 months or so, pretty much every exercise-related post I’ve written has been lacking some crucial information. This could be because I’m so passionate about uncovering the truth about cardio for fat loss. I simply [...]
