On the surface I agree with this comment. If you don’t plan your shop; don’t buy meats in bulk (opt for the nicely presented woolworths produce), don’t make the effort to buy fresh produce from markets etc. Yep! Costs can blow out. But a bottle of 600ml coke is $2.80+ (I think). And does what for you? A question worth asking yourself next time you purchase a packet of dorito’s or a healthy choice of Grain Wave chips (really! Healthy?) with a bottle of coke zero.

Follow up: I’m a realist and as I drink I am well aware that others YOU do to. Priority of alcohol consumption is this; clear spirits with mineral/soda water ideally to be flavoured with limes, lemons etc. Wines!  Dry wines are best. Beer’s gluten free best… I know there’s about 2 on the market Obrien’s the name. Interesting self assessment is that I don’t get bloating with the gluten free beer’s but still get pissed ha, ha. The key to alcohol is be aware of what goes with it e.g. rum & coke (sugar city); wild turkey American honey (it’s all in the name). Also the added food choices are usually poor. Always remember the fact that alcohol limits growth hormone at sleep to an almost non existent level. Growth hormone: maintains lean body mass, burns fat, fixes DNA damage. Also alcohol can make you wake up with someone you wish not to wake up with, or make you run in the rain to someone’s house you shouldn’t.

Friday night party I know… Been planning to watch Sicko- by Michael Moore for years now, it’s always been on the list. It’s crazy how a movie from 07 based on the appalling state of health care in the US reflects on the progression of Australia’s health care system. One of the overwhelming concerns is the treating of sickness as an industry of profit. I look forward to the day the government shifts towards a serious approach to educating people about how nutrition plays out in their day to day life & more importantly for their future (later) years. On a positive note I have seen shifts in the school system in its approach to nutrition but this appears to be in many cases a directive from the top & independent to that school. A directive from the top….

poetry in this at all?)
