The Goodness Of Garlic
This pungent smaller relative of the onion mounts a multi-pronged attack on your heart disease risk.
Firstly, garlic’s active ingredient, allicin, relaxes the blood vessels, reducing your blood pressure.
Garlic has also been clinically proven to help keep the arteries clear of cholesterol, as well as making the blood less ‘sticky’ and likely to form dangerous clots.
The Goodness Of Seeds
Seeds are packed with nutrients. Grind a mixture of pumpkin, sunflower, sesame and linseed in a coffee grinder, and sprinkle on cereals, or add to baking.

Breakfasts
Porridge Make yourself a bowl of delicious, creamy porridge oats. Oats are high in fibre and contain vitamin E and some B vitamins, also iron, calcium and other minerals. Using milk in porridge will add more calcium.
Scrambled Egg
3 eggs 1 teaspoon butter 3 teaspoons milk 1/2 cup cooked ham 1 small onion 1 pinch pepper 1 pinch salt Cut ham, pepper, and onion into small cubes. Whisk all ingredients -
E V E R Y T H I N G !!!!! Put it in a pan, scramble. Enjoy!
The Goodness Of Fish
Pollack - from the same family as cod, this fish is usually overlooked. Its numbers are healthy, so use it as an alternative to its more popular sibling.
Mackerel - packed full of health-giving omega oils, mackerel is a great food fish. Its population is thriving, so it's a good fish to eat.
Grey mullet - although under-appreciated, grey mullet makes surprisingly good eating. It's also a good source of iodine, the lack of which is linked to academic underachievement.
Gurnard - fast becoming a restaurant favourite, gurnard is a meaty fish, that holds its shape well when cooked. Add it to fish soups and stews as an alternative to monkfish.
Coley - another member of the cod family, but one that has fallen from food favour. Its slightly grey flesh may put customers off, but once cooked, its flesh turns white and succulent. Use as a substitute for cod.
Fruit and vegetables are low in energy and packed with vitamins, minerals, protective plant compounds and fibre, so they're a great source of nutrients and vital for a healthy diet.
