The Forever Plan
This plan is designed to not only help you achieve a leaner body, but
also to become healthier, feel fitter, sleep better, become more active
and feel alive.
Here’s a question for you – Do you keep a load of artificial
additives and preservatives in your cupboard to add to your cooking? No!
… Then why would you want to continue buying food from the supermarket
with them in?

London Paleo Kitchen
Alicia and Arifa are two friends who are just passionate about food.
They are not culinary experts and don’t pretend to be, they just
like to cook and eat good food. They found out about Paleo when they started
doing CrossFit a few years ago, and they’ve slowly been changing
the way they cook so that it is more Paleo friendly.
The great thing about Alicia and Arifas blog is their no nonsense approach
to cooking. Their style aims to be quick, simple and nutritious. Knowing
the girls and their extreme levels of fitness tells me that there is something
quite exciting about paleo eating.

seasons. Each week we focus on one food, which is currently in season,
and share enlightening facts, useful tips and enticing recipe ideas picked
from the web and our favourite books

Big Barn
BigBarn is the UK's no.1 local food website. They help people to find good,
safe, accountable food from local sources. They believe there are significant
problems in the UK food industry. Big Barn see a trend towards the separation
of producer from customer, where the market is controlled by big business,
retailers and middlemen. Where Farmers, on average, only receive 9p in every
£1 spent on food in a supermarket and where chicken farmers now rear chickens
so intensively, to meet low price points, that they contain nearly a pint
of bad fat, get hock burns from standing in their own excrement and grow
so quickly that their bones can be minced up to make hot dogs. Big Barn
want to reverse that trend. |
