I love this statistic. I repeat it whenever I forget a name, misplace my keys, or don’t pay enough attention to my health. I shout it at my children when they come home with processed food in their pockets. And I remind Mr K&C when he burns the candle at both ends (not that he takes…
THE POWER OF A NAP & VENISON WITH BLACKBERRY AND APPLE SAUCE
It’s that time of year when thoughts turn to fending off the inevitable coughs and colds of winter. Already my son is back from school with a streaming nose and a rasping cough. I’ve not caught it yet, but I’ve had a week of poor sleep, and in my experience, tiredness is a short step…
PLANNING FOR GOOD HEALTH AND BEETROOT HUMMUS
Do you have a plan for the next 10 years? 20? 30? I have to admit I don’t, and I hadn’t given it a lot of thought until very recently. But last week a Masterclass entitled Life Doesn’t Stop at 50: How to Have a Fulfilling Third Act made me think about it A…
GET THEE TO A FOREST (ON FOOT) AND HERBY COURGETTE/ZUCCHINI SOUP
Now is the time to boost our immunity, particularly given recent predictions that this winter may see a severe flu epidemic. In addition to the usual dietary advice (more on this next month), there’s something very simple we can do – take advantage of these glorious autumn days and hit the woods. There’s a new…
WOULD YOU GIVE UP CARBS FOR A HEALTHY OLD AGE? AND MASSAGED KALE SALAD
Where do you fall on the carb-spectrum? Can’t get enough of them, haven’t touched one since 1994 or somewhere inbetween? Annabel and I definitely love carbs, but – since starting our Age Well journey – they’ve been wholegrain ones rather than refined. We’ve read well-researched report after well-researched report telling us that wholegrain carbohydrate will…
HOW TO AVOID RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS – SPAGHETTI WITH SARDINES
At Kale & Cocoa we talk a lot about health span. It’s an inelegant, clunky word referring to how long we live a healthy life, as opposed to how long we actually live (referred to as life span). We believe that health span is far more important than life span. As our regular readers know,…
WALK FASTER, EAT MORE PLANTS AND LOOK AFTER YOUR TEETH (AGAIN) – WHAT WE LEARNT THIS SUMMER
Much as I love summer, and I do ADORE summer, I relish the sense of a new beginning that September brings. That back-to-school, new-pencil-case feeling inspires new resolutions and a fresh sense of purpose. And for Kale & Cocoa, it means hitting refresh on our ‘Age Well’ intentions. For K&C, Annabel and I read hundreds…
HOW TO AGE WELL THIS AUGUST – AND CITRUS FISH BAKE
It’s August and I hope you’re getting a break. More and more evidence suggests that taking a break to relax and recharge is a vital weapon in the battle to age well. A joint study by the Universities of California and Harvard found that a holiday reduces genetic markers linked to stress and the quantity…
HOW TO LIVE HAPPILY EVER LAUGHTER & FARRO SALAD WITH EGGS AND SMOKED MACKEREL
A few weeks ago I had dinner with one of the UK’s kings of comedy. Charlie Higson, writer, producer and comedian in shows like Saturday Live, the Harry Enfield Programme, Reeves and Mortimer and The Fast Show, had us all in stitches. After a while, we were laughing before Charlie even opened his mouth, almost…
WHY WE LOVE LONGEVITY HOTSPOTS – TOMATO AND MOZZARELLA SALAD
Intrigued by the world’s longevity hotspots? So are we. I’m particularly interested in the so-called Blue Zones because their inhabitants never take supplements (or join gyms!) and yet they have fabulously long, disease-free lives by doing very ordinary things. Which means we can too. Every so often a new longevity hot spot or blue zone…

![There’s a piece in @telegraph online today about Susan’s coaching programme Better Brain Framework. Journalist @msmirandamcminn watched her mother battle dementia for 10 years. Determined to reduce her own dementia risk, Miranda worked with Susan for three months.
She said, ‘I am convinced that we could all benefit from following this programme…. [it] has given me better clarity than I had at the age of 30”
