‘Tis the season to be jolly … and – in many cases – a time to indulge in a bit of food folly! We all know the feeling. After another bloody slog of a year with work, family and other stresses, we can often find ourselves struggling over the finish line in the final countdown […]

By Kilkenny Now 10th September 2019 0

WE all go through periods when we burn the candle at both ends. I certainly know all about the toll overdoing it can take on your health – I’ve just had the craziest seven months of my life and I’ve never looked forward to winter, with all the drudgery it promises! The body, and the […]

LAURA WARREN: ‘Know the facts before you go vegan and throw meat to the kerb’

By Kilkenny Now 11th March 2019 0

I WAS struck while listening to an interview with a schoolgirl on radio recently. After declaring herself to be a vegan, the presenter asked the girl a simple question: why?

THERE’S lots of misconceptions out there when it comes to fatty foods. As with carbs, and any food type, there are bad fats – but there are some good ones too. This morning (surprise, surprise!) I gorged on two poached eggs cooked in raw organic coconut oil, washed down with my Frank & Honest coffee. I […]

LAURA WARREN: Take the healthy road less travelled – prepare your own air fare

By Kilkenny Now 4th February 2019 0

LET’S face it – plane food is, on the whole, just plain unappetising. Prison food, in some cases, is probably better. When ordering their last meal, the prisoner on death row seldom requests the soggy muck they munched 30,000 feet above sea level all those years ago. In a bid to improve airline fare, Singapore […]

WITH so many supplements on the market, it can be very confusing to know what vitamins and supplements you really need to take, particularly as the first real cold snap of the Winter takes us in its icy grip! It seems as if there’s a pill for absolutely everything these days, whether you want to […]
