Easter will be late this year – 19 to 22 April – and I’m already sick of seeing chocolate eggs, bunnies and bilbies everywhere. Not forgetting Hot Cross buns which have been on sale since January!
Why do extended retail cycles have to dictate what we can see and buy? And why does it have to start so early? I know I sound like the Easter Grinch but this is becoming ridiculous. In this newsletter I detail why extending the "celebration time frame" is detrimental to our health and our actual enjoyment of the festival. Naturally, there’s lots more in this newsletter – not all critical, I promisey you can check it out online here.
As usual there's much more including "All things chococlate", What's new on the Foodwatch website, a French Diet podcast and What I'm eating now.
Catherine Saxelby has the answers! She is an accredited nutritionist, blogger and award-winning author. Her award-winning book My Nutritionary will help you cut through the jargon. Do you know your MCTs from your LCTs? How about sterols from stanols? What’s the difference between glucose and dextrose? Or probiotics and prebiotics? What additive is number 330? How safe is acesulfame K? If you find yourself confused by food labels, grab your copy of Catherine Saxelby’s comprehensive guide My Nutritionary NOW!
