The Irony of Healthy Eating

Your body doesn’t make any iron, you need to consume it. So, steak, stout and plenty of greens, right? This is not only going to be easy, it’s going to be delicious!!!!
This is where the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh comes in. Because iron deficiency isn’t just about eating enough iron, it is about ensuring that iron gets out of your stomach and into the rest of you.

Shakshuka. Sort of.

Last week I read a very amusing article on BS slimming fads and how almost all celebrity fronted diet books feature some kind of chilli spiked eggs for breakfast.
