Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes dark chocolate, spinach, adzuki bean and chamomile)

The nutrients called 'flavonoids' found in these fruit, vegetables and pulses are believed to be helpful in fighting cancer.
Nutritionalists studying the effects of flavonoids think that they also have numerous healthy benefits, including, but not limited to, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory powers.
The majority of these are also low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss regime.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
