    Hurray, it’s January, detox month! And with detox month, comes detox bashing. “Load of rubbish” say many. How can the body rid itself of ‘toxins’ by drinking green gunge, fruit smoothies, or necking maple syrup and lemon juice for days on end? However, some individuals say they feel better after going on the above ‘detox’ diets. They say their hair shines, their skin problems clear up, they feel more energetic. So what’s going on? Firstly, let’s look at the science. The liver takes all the ‘rubbish’ that has come into the body, say alcohol, caffeine, cigarette...

    When people discover I’m a nutritional therapist, they often look down in dismay at the food in their hand (e.g. a salty tortilla chip at a party) and say: “I bet you’re thinking I shouldn’t be eating this.” No actually. I’m more likely to be wondering how this particular food will interact with your unique body and the individual way it works. That food may work ok for you, but not for me, or vice versa. We’re all different. In the same way that our eye colour is determined by our genetic make-up, so is our body’s response to food. No two individuals are genetically...
