I’ve really been upping my intake of CBD recently because I feel like it’s helping me sleep, and although I mostly stick to gummies and oils, I’ve also been drinking plenty of CBD drinks. So I was absolutely delighted when I walked into Waitrose this week (August 25th 2026) and saw that 2 of my favourite CBD drinks brands, TRIP…

I’ve tried lots of CBD products over the years, and although I’ve generally had the best results with CBD oll, I’ll admit that the taste is sometimes a bit strong for me. I’ve been using CBD oil from CBDIABLO for quite a while now, so when I saw that the brand had launched some high strength CBD gummies, I decided…

I’m no stranger to weird products – just recently I published an article about the “protein fruit puree” I found in Lidl, which I’m still confused by. So when I spotted ‘Gym Beer by Iguana’ at my local Morrisons, I knew I’d have to write an article about it. I’ve been loving non-alcoholic beer recently, and I’ve been happily trying…

Photo: unsplash.com, Fahmi Fakhrudin Why did the home barista become such a natural part of remote work culture? The answer has less to do with coffee trends and more to do with time. When work moved into the home, the home itself changed. It became an office, a meeting room, a place for deadlines and a space where people had…

Regular readers know that I’m often scouring the shelves at my local supermarkets to find new high protein products, and over the years I’ve found some pretty interesting things. From high protein cheesecake to high protein pizzas, it seems that nothing is off limits when it comes to making it “high protein”. But a recent high protein find at my…

If you spend any time on social media, chances are you’ve seen a mention of a CBD brand called Supreme CBD. What’s interesting about this brand is that it’s not usually adverts that I’m seeing online for them – at least, not a typical sort of advert. What I mostly see is “celebrities” promoting the brand, making all sorts of…

I love eating Skyr, which is why I write about it so much. Seriously, it’s high in protein, fat free, and tastes really good, what’s not to like? I’ve never really had a “go-to” Skyr brand because I like trying different brands, but I have to say that Aldi is quickly becoming my favourite place to head to when I…

I’ve written quite a bit about how beneficial I’ve found CBD oils and gummies, especially for things like sleep. Usually I buy my CBD products online or at a store like Holland and Barrett, but occasionally I like to grab some from my local Waitrose. Not all UK supermarkets stock CBD products (I’ve never seen any at M&S, for example),…

I’m a big fan of CBD products and use them daily, but the one downside to almost all of the ingestible CBD products I take is the taste. I understand that things which are good for you aren’t supposed to taste great, but sometimes I really struggle to get excited to take a CBD oil when I know I’m going…

I’ve been writing a lot about gin recently, and I’ve had loads of great feedback from readers who agree with me that a gin and tonic is the perfect summer tipple. My most popular gin posts of late have been my posts about gin from supermarkets, with both the Lidl post and the Aldi posts being especially popular. It seems…

AG1 is one of the most recommended green powders in the UK at the moment, but it is quite an expensive purchase. A bag of AG1 can set you back a handsome £91- £150. Some ask if this is too expensive, but considering the popularity of the brand and the ingredients that the product contains, it is a price worth…

Regular readers will know that I’m a big fan of Skyr, and I’ve written about this high protein product loads. It’s packed with protein, naturally fat-free, and really thick – which I adore. Skyr is more popular than ever, especially among fitness fanatics who love how healthy the product is. So when I saw that you can now buy a…

Weight loss support should be practical, clinically sensible, and built around the person, not just willpower. For people considering medical options, clinician-led weight loss support can help turn guesswork into a safer plan based on suitability, lifestyle, health history, and ongoing review, while keeping nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, medication history, personal goals, and realistic daily habits part of the conversation….

Here in the UK it definitely feels like summer is on our doorstep, and I’ve decided that my drink for this summer is going to be a G&T. I love the taste and it’s generally pretty low in calories and carbs, which suits me perfectly. I’ve been sampling lots of excellent gins recently, and I’ve also sampled many lovely own-brand…

Coffee is not always practical.   You might not want a big drink before working out, or have one when you’re travelling, or when you are working all day. This is one of the reasons caffeine pouches are popular. Some people do not want coffee on a hot day, in the gym, in a meeting, or on a long drive….

Regular readers will know that I love writing about Lidl – I’m a huge fan of the Lidl high protein range, and I recently wrote about how good their gin selection is too. But there is one aspect of Lidl that tends to light up social media more than any other – the bakery. Frequently voted as the best supermarket…

I recently wrote about how impressed I was by the Aldi gin selection, which not only features some excellent imitation gins at great prices, but also features an award-winning gin that picked up the prestigious Gold Award at the World Gin Awards. I was so impressed by the Aldi gin selection that I wanted to check out what the gin…
