January 1, 2016 4 Comments

We’ll be back with our first 2016 post very soon, but in the meantime we’ve added a new function to the website for the new year! You can now search all our recipes by ingredient. Have a look – it’s not hard to work out our favourite healthy ageing ingredients – coconut oil, oats and almonds appear frequently!

    Dear Susan , I was sorry to read of your bereavement. The following words hopefully will bring you some comfort in time. “Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.” My own mother passed away in 1975 and she is with me every single day. However when I am with my children and grandchildren I thank her for the legacy she has left me.

    May I wish you and Annabel a Happy New Year. A new year filled with treasured memories, happiness and joy.

    Your web site, with recipes, information on healthy eating and living, give me and my family great pleasure. Well done.

    I live in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, and appreciate the time and effort, and the wonderful coloured photos, of all your recipes.

    Keep up the good work.

    Sincerely
    Thelma

We’ve got the low down over the blog - what is energy and how we get more?!? 

We’re covering:

🥗The nutrition we need to fuel our mitochondria (the ‘batteries’ of our cells)

⚡️The ‘good stress’ (hormesis) that creates more energy 

🧘‍♀️The importance of breath work 

😴Why we need to rest 

and 

👩‍🍳A whole load of great recipes

We spend a lot of time suggesting that you get up We spend a lot of time suggesting that you get up and move 🏃‍♀️🚶‍♀️💃 But we were fascinated by recent research into the power of ‘wakeful rest’, particularly if we rock while we do it. 

It seems Granny and her rocking chair were right all along - rockers sleep better. Hammocks are great too, as Annabel is demonstrating here!

And students who take some time to rest after learning something new consolidate their new knowledge better than people who go to sleep, or just get on with their lives. And it seems ten minutes of down-time is enough to deeply embed new memories.

So now we’re rocking and resting! There’s more on the blog - link in bio

A bottle of beer a day can improve our microbiome A bottle of beer a day can improve our microbiome according to new research published by the @amerchemsociety.  Four weeks of a daily lager (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) improved intestinal health without impacting weight, the researchers speculate that the additional bacteria produced by fermentation might positively interact with the polyphenols contained in lager to enrich the gut. Good news for beer drinkers!  We’re fans of alcohol free beers, particularly on hot days… like this dainty bottle from @brewdogofficial

Isn’t she ageing well?! Yes, yes, we know our Qu Isn’t she ageing well?! Yes, yes, we know our Queen has incredible advantages when it comes to longevity: palaces, retinues of staff, the country’s best doctors…. but there are longevity lessons we can all learn from Her Majesty as we head into the Platinum Jubilee bank holiday weekend 🇬🇧👑🇬🇧

So a trumpet voluntary, please, for our right royal Age-Well celebration….
