General cooking tips

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.

Making your own lunch instead of buying from a sandwich shop saves on packaging, and could also save you approx £4 a day or £1,000 per year!

Dieting tips

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss program first created by Barry Sears in a series of books and publications. The Zone diet is not particularly a fat reduction diet, but some people find that they really reduce body weight by following the zone diet.
The supposed science behind the Zone Diet is that if you were to gain control of the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts the body in a balanced state that is far more healthy than usual, this is referred to as 'the zone'.
Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is perfectly balanced and, as a consequence, does not build up layers of fat.
The main method of the zone system is to monitor and control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has increased levels of Omega 3 fish oils.
