Lovely to have the longer days even though it's still cold. We must get outside as much as possible to help our bodies build up their Vitamin D but wrap up warm! My sister has been watching a podcast about Osteoporosis and how to reduce our chances of developing it in later life. Tim Spector from Zoe says eat plenty and a wide range of plants - see this week's fruit and vegetable price guide for availability.

Well hopefully we've all survived Storm Kathleen.  I hope you're all listening to the Zoe (Prof Tim Spector's team) podcasts. Two very interesting ones: How to prevent type 2 diabetes and 5 things to do to reduce dementia risk. One important fact came out of them - try and eat a wide range of coloured fruit and vegetables to get plenty of polyphenols to help feed a healthy gut microbiome.
