Food For Thought

It's hard to believe there was ever a time when diet books didn't exist, when home-cooked meals were the norm not the exception, and when people intuitively ate what was good for them. With the plethora of information available today about food, diet and nutrition, we should all be healthier than ever, but instead we're just more confused about what to eat or not to eat! This week’s Food For Thought sees personal trainer Graeme Tomlinson and I go back to basics and why food should always be seen as a source of enjoyment.
