The simple and sustainable route to weight loss.
For many of us, losing weight can be a real battle - yo yo-ing from one extreme diet to another and never finding an approach that we can (and want to) apply long-term.
Until now. The 30g Plan reveals that by balancing 30 plants a week with 30 grams of protein and fibre in our daily meals, we will not only lose weight easily but feel full and reap countless other health benefits too.
Packed with delicious nutritionally complete recipes, meal planners, tips and tricks, let this book be your guide and introduction to a whole new way of eating to help you feel at your very best - for life.

Cooking for kids can be tricky but this book, packed with recipes
that have been tried and tested by thousands of kids, is here to
help. Feeding kids is a maze - one day they'll eat a whole cucumber
from one end to the other; for the next three weeks, they will
swear it's a slimy snozzcumber. Whether time or cash strapped, it's
all too tempting to turn to fish fingers, bangers and mash and
other kids' classics, whilst wishing it was easier to do it better
on all fronts: more exciting, more inspiring, more wholesome. If
only there was someone out there who knew how to feed kids really
well on a budget, who could inspire them to try different food, and
make it easy on the cook and easy on the pocket! Well, there is.

cookbooks as the recipes are tried and tested on thousands of
children. They're nutritious and proven to work. This cookbook
tells the stories and shares the recipes of the people who are
helping to transform school food. Their mission is to teach
children to love and understand real food cooked from fresh

it, and to learn to cook it for themselves too. Chapters include:

Feasting, Sides & Sharing, Bread, Desserts. "Bye bye boring
school dinners - this is the future of food for our kids" - Tom

family focussed recipes. A total must have." - Thomasina Miers
Osteoporosis, the brittle-bone disease, was long considered one of
the inevitable curses of aging. Many of us have watched our
grandmothers and mothers gradually become more stooped, more prone
to bone fractures. Recent medical evidence indicates that
osteoporosis may be prevented if we increase our calcium intake
beginning in our late twenties, and prevention is still possible
even if we do not start increasing our calcium intake until our
forties. For calcium to work most effectively against bone loss it
must be taken in specific proportion to other kinds of foods
something a simple calcium supplement does nothing to ensure. The
Calcium Cookbook shows us how to do just that in two hundred
delicious ways. It offers recipes that provide the calcium and
other nutrients essential for prolonged well-being, without
depending on high-calorie or high-cholesterol foods. Each recipe is
carefully designed to maximize the absorption of calcium."
