Read MoreAG1 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…
Read MoreRegular 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.

Read MoreWeight loss support should be practical, clinically sensible, and built around the person, not just willpower.

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…
Read MoreCoffee 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.

Read MoreRegular 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…
Read MoreI 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.

In this article, we explore the flavours, techniques, and cultural…
Read MoreMedjool dates, the “King of Dates,” – or so some people say. They are the luscious, caramel-flavoured royalty of the dried fruit world. What makes them different to “common” dates? Well, Mejool dates are more often larger, softer, and inherently sweeter than their common Deglet Noor. What’s more, not only are these dates absolutely delicious, they are pretty damn good…
Read MoreIn my guide to the highest protein yoghurts you can buy in the UK, I try to focus on products that are actually yoghurt, and not things like quark. That’s why I’m writing a separate post about this very impressive product – Biotiful Protein Kefir. If you don’t mind the taste and texture of quark, which tends to be much,…
Read MoreIf you’ve been reading my articles recently then you’ll know that I’ve been writing a lot about gin – I’m definitely enjoying a G&T at the moment, especially now that we’re getting a bit of sunshine.

Yes, you could just buy everything online pretty easily, but it’s also really handy to be able to head to…
Read MoreIf you’ve been wandering the aisles of Holland & Barrett lately, you’ve likely seen the minimalist, clean branding of Mindful Extracts. As a multi-award-winning UK brand, they have quickly become a staple for those seeking “clean label” supplements. But with so many Mindful Extracts alternatives appearing in 2026, how does their range- from the Mindful Extracts 1000mg oil to their…
Read MoreI’ve been really enjoying gin lately – I like how I can drink it with tonic, and I only need a small amount of gin to make myself a very nice G&T. We’re lucky here in the UK to have a pretty incredible selection of gins available to buy – yes I could jump online and buy pretty much any…
Read MoreI love how many high protein food options there are on the market right now, and as someone trying to be healthier, it has made upping my protein intake a bit of a breeze.
