Your lifestyle plays a huge part to your health, incorporating more exercise, keeping hydrated by drinking more water.

Did you know a bottle of Lucozade contains 9 spoons of sugar?

Following a GI diet can help loose weight the healthy way, without going hungry. High GI foods, like white bread are heavily processed and have little nutrients.

Balancing food sugar is very important; eating light, fluffy foods will only make you hungrier after a while. Protein and fibre not only helps sustain the hunger longer you it helps keep the your energy level consistent.

Drinking water, yes you hear this all the time. It is possible to drink too much, as long as you know when to stop. Water helps flush toxins out the system.

I quote from Kate. “You can eat all the best food in the world but can have problems with digestion”

After the presentation, the group was divided into 2 teams. We learned how to debone a chicken and cut up a mackerel.
