Taste test with the Wilderfit boys

Taste test with the Wilderfit boys

Today is for living, don’t wait till tomorrow

Today is for living, don’t wait till tomorrow

The Dalai Lama when asked what surprises him "Man! Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.

How could...

What do you need to know if you want to eat a more plant based diet?

There has beeen an enormous interest in vegan diets of late, and I have noticed more of my clients, and friends, are becoming vegan. Even more are considering it; or at the very least, eating a more plant based diet. A recent study by the Vegan society found that over 20% of respondents would consider becoming vegan. We used to travel to India regularly and I think that was the beginning of my interest in eating a more plant based diet. I understand that not eating certain meats can be faith...
