hello and welcome to our best of british special!
My team and I have so enjoyed travelling the length and breadth of Britain to bring you the very best of our beautiful isles. We’ve found top chefs, artisan food producers, craft folk, beauty gurus, wellness warriors and travel inspiration, from cities to coast and more – all within striking distance. When it comes to food, we have a special focus on local and homegrown, not only for seasonality and sustainability, but for lower cost with much better taste. A double winner! To help cook up some great British favourites, we enlisted the help of some leading, award-winning chefs, as well as devising some clever twists on traditional classic dishes – all with a plant-based, nutritious and delicious twist (obviously).I must confess to be a somewhat fair-weather gardener, so this…

WALKABOUTThere’s now yet another incentive to walk to work in the morning. A small new study, conducted by Australian researchers, reports that walking for just half an hour a day could lead to a reduction in blood pressure comparable to the effects of taking a single dose of blood pressure-lowering medication. In addition to this, women gained further benefit from taking frequent three-minute walking breaks throughout the day. This research only measured the effects of blood pressure on one day, so we don’t know whether this has a positive effect long-term. It certainly shows, however, that exercise is a good way to maintain healthy blood pressure levels day-to-day, as well as building better bone density as we age.AMAZING ALLIUMSGood news for garlic lovers – a study of over 1,600 men…

bathing beauty
Archaeological evidence shows we’ve enjoyed the restorative powers of bubbling hot springs since at least 8,000 BC. The UK has just three natural hot spring sources, and the historic city of Bath is home to the only natural thermal spa. Today, not even geologists can say where these hot springs originate, but we do know they contain over 42 minerals, including calcium, magnesium, silica and iron – and they emerge from the ground at the optimum bathing temperature of 33.5°C.The phenomenon of mineral-rich hot water bubbling up from deep below was not lost on the Romans, for whom bathing was something of an obsession. Their legacy remains and there are several ways to take the waters in Bath today. Some are housed in an architectural gem of a listed building…
