Are you getting enough nutrients? Malnutrition is normally something we’d associate with a third world country but it’s reckoned that around 2 million Brits are malnourished, and another 3 million are borderline.

Very few of us actually eat a balanced diet, and probably very few of us actually know what a balanced diet is. We all know about our 5 a day, but what else should we be eating? We could be lacking in essential vitamins and minerals. Check symptoms like sore tongue, cracked lips, hair loss aren’t to do with vitamin deficiency.

Also check the health of your teeth and gums, and have regular visits to the dentist. People who don’t take care of their teeth and gums are 70 per cent more likely to develop heart disease than those who brush their teeth twice a day and visit their dentist regularly.

Eat your greens too. The slimy ones that is! Things like chlorella, spirulina and ecklonia cava (brown seaweed), are all edible algae filled with beneficial nutrients and antioxidants. They show promise in treating various different conditions from obesity to high cholesterol.
