HFM investigates why thinking differently about the science behind your nutrition – especially the potential benefits of protein supplements – could be the key to staying in great shape for the year ahead. So here we are, already a few months into 2021, and it feels like we’ve come a long way in a relatively short space of time. Walk around a supermarket now, and it seems like every other food package is branded as a protein product – there are even protein chocolate bars, somehow.  The p-word has become ubiquitous, but it all seems to have happened very quickly.

Music therapy

by Cheryl Freedman
3y ago
With all the extra time spent at home this year, many of us will have been inspired to dust down that old guitar from the loft for some self-administered music therapy. It should have been the perfect chance to brush up our playing, or learn a new instrument. In reality, for some, the urge to play was blocked by other feelings.
