New low carb British Lager with no sugar. I recently came across a new low carb, no sugar larger on the market called Saint. I know I sometimes go on a bit about beers having recently written about the 0 calorie, beer flavoured drink Equator that foamed and tasted like actual beer, but there really are times when only a nice …

I did a skip and a dance when I received my Dr Zak’s high protein bread through the post a few days ago. I had very high expectations for this bread because high protein means less carbs thus eliminating worries about putting on weight, right? Hold on to that thought. As I took it out of its delivery box, it …

Strawberries just got a lot more interesting: There’s a new snack in town, it bothers on sinful and tastes oh so divine but there’s enough goodness in there to appease the health conscious Last week I got wind of Little Devil, a snack brand that makes quirky dessert pots. Little Devil is basically pots of strawberries and chocolate dipping sauce …

Embracing Good Carbs. I love baked goods, especially bread but like most people I try to limit my intake thanks to the whole ‘too much carbs equals weight gain thing’ and whenever I fall off the wagon, I make sure it’s with wholemeal. In fact, I’ve been very good in the carbs department this year. I’ve been eating more fruits, …

Visit to a Snack Emporium. I recently discovered that Carpo, a newly opened nuts, dried fruit, chocolate and coffee store in the heart of London is the place for high quality snacks. Located in the middle of Piccadilly Circus, Carpo is definitely different from the average store found at such a location but strangely enough, it fits right in and …

Healthy Coconut Dessert: I know it’s not exactly sunny but technically it is summer and let’s face it, sometimes you just want a treat so it’s no surprise I have ice cream on my mind. But like most people trying to live a healthy lifestyle, I like my treats but I want healthy treats that will satisfy my sweet tooth …

Low calorie drinks for a guilt free summer. With round the clock barbecues and picnics, trying to be good health wise during the summer can be extremely difficult. Alcohol is usually the main culprit that gets people, which is why finding a healthy option to wine and beer couldn’t have come at a better time. This summer, low calorie drinks like …

Protein Ice Cream for the Health Conscious. I came across WheyHey protein ice cream back in February at a trade show but didn’t get a chance to try it. Since then I have been on a quest to find it in my local Holland and Barrettes. It wasn’t available on my first two visits but the third time was the …

Guilt free healthy cakes At this time of year when most people are working hard to get in shape for summer, the idea of snacks or baked goods in particular are a no- no. But it’s a new world – I want to eat cake and lose weight at the same. That’s where Slim Sami’s Cakery comes in. I’ve known …

Kate will be following in the footsteps of Lenny Kravitz who designed a limited edition box to commemorate the chain’s first store in New York. Kate’s special box will be unveiled on the 19th of March at a private launch and will be …
