> 'I quit one type of food and dropped 1.5 stone - it was easier than I thought'

"Firstly, you don't have to quit cold turkey from day one, like I did. That can be tough and unsustainable. A simple starting point could be making easy swaps to meals and ingredients, for example, try nuts instead of granola or cereal for breakfast, with Greek yoghurt instead of the flavoured kind.

"Instead of crisps on the side of a meal or as a snack, eat nuts straight from the bag, make your own hummus or crispy chickpeas (all you do is cover some chickpeas from a tin in oil and stick them in the oven until they're crispy). You can then keep them in tubs or pots as go-to snacks.

"You can also try making homemade versions of your favourite foods. For example, bread is not hard to make at home and as you get more confident you can make healthy versions of the things you love - I made a "healthy Nutella" out of hazelnuts, cocoa powder, maple syrup and milk.

> Coffee May Have A Fascinating Effect On Your Heart, And It's Not What You'd Expect

According to study leader Dr Fulvia Ceccarelli, “Besides the well-known stimulant effect on the body, caffeine also exerts an anti-inflammatory effect because it binds with the receptors expressed on the surface of immune cells.”

After tracking study participants’ food and caffeine consumption for a week, they took their blood to see how their consumption affected their cardiovascular health.

They were looking to see how healthy their endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) were. These are the cells responsible for repairing and maintaining blood vessel walls.

The researchers found a positive link between caffeine intake and a person’s amount of circulating EPCs.

> Pharmacist's vitamin D warning as some people are risking cancer

Jana Abelovska, Superintendent Pharmacist at Click Pharmacy, said: “The best way to get vitamin D is through your diet, supported by supplements like tablets, capsules, gummies or sprays that you use directly into your mouth. Vitamin D is fat soluble, which means that it is absorbed into the body along with fat - this means taking your vitamin D supplement with food that contains some healthy fats, such as nuts or yoghurt, will help your body absorb it much better.

“The recommended daily amount of vitamin D for adults aged between 19 and 70 is 15 mcg which is 600 IU or International Units, a unit used to measure vitamins. It’s really common to take vitamin D supplements, especially as many of us will not get enough vitamin D from sunlight or food alone. Dietary sources of vitamin D include oily fish, mushrooms and eggs, as well as some fortified foods like breakfast cereals and milk or plant-based milk alternatives.

> Experts pinpoint the KEY nutrient to consume if you want to lose weight

Fibre is the part of the plant that our small intestine can't digest so it reaches the large intestine, where it can help fuel multiple beneficial biological processes, this includes both direct weight-loss and helping to curb conditions that can contribute to piling on pounds in the first place, Fibre falls into two main types, insoluble and soluble, both of which can contribute to slimming down in different ways, insoluble fibre is the indigestible plant matter we can't readily absorb, like fruit and vegetable skins, and is also found in wholemeal foods, eating this fibre naturally slows down digestion and makes the extraction of glucose, and therefore energy, a more gradual process helping to curb cravings.

Felice defined ultra-processed food as "food deconstructed from its original ingredients and put back together again, and it usually has a list of other ingredients that are not found in whole foods."

She added that these could include artificial sugars, food colourings, preservatives, emulsifiers, and more. These ultra-processed foods can be obvious items like ice cream and crisps, but also ready-made meals and some types of bread.
