My interest in nutrition and what we consume in our daily diet has always been of interest to me so when I stumbled across this book at my local fruit shop/deli yesterday I couldn't help but buy it.
It is called "Whole Food" and is simply about eating good food the natural way. Authors Gavin Pitt and Rachel Thomsom have interesting backgrounds and have observed how people feel and look better if they eat healthier and more nutritious meals. I am definately looking forward to trying out some of the recipes - blueberry truffles and coconut and lime tartlets. It all sounds to good to be true. I will deliver my experience once I have made them to see if they are as good as they sound.
And speaking of looking and feeling better - now that I am pregnant with my second child I have made a concious effort to be extra vigilant with what I consume and put in and on my body. So I have been researching some more natural alternatives to my chemical laden face cream that mind you cost a packet (more fool me right) and does absolutely nothing for my skin and probably never will.
So two products that I have found that are definately worthy of a mention and I am sure there are zillions more are:
Joliv offers an exquisite range of chemical-free, environmentally friendly and entirely natural beauty products and comes with a unique guarantee that they contain absolutely no harmful or artificial ingredients. Better still every product is freshly hand made, from scratch, to order. They even do cleaning products which is great too!
Another to consider is Simplicite. Experienced Naturopath David Lyons has turned his 2o years of experience in naturopathy and herbal medicine toward a range of skin care which is made uses natures purest plant, flower, aromatherapy and Australian bush-flower extracts. It sounds delicious!
They both sound good enough to eat!
