Incredible!
I will never complain about cooking again!

Did you know that rice is high in microplastics and arsenic!
To avoid these make sure you rinse rice before cooking and then rinse again once cooked. Precooked rice in pouches should also be rinsed before eating.
Rice cookers also retain more arsenic and microplastics. I prefer boiling rice in lots of water, then rinse cooked rice in cold water and then reheat or stir fry in a little olive oil.
Remember...reheating cold rinsed cooked rice increases levels of resistant starch which makes rice lower in calories and carbs!
I prefer pasta to rice because it does not have microplastics or arsenic.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.I am often asked if legumes make GOUT worse. Plant foods high in purines like legumes/soy have not been found to raise uric acid levels. However animal foods high in purines like red meat, shellfish, oily fish, organ meats, alcohol and sugar rich foods can raise uric acid levels. Check out meta analysis below.

Love red lentil soup. Instead of potato can use pumpkin or cauliflower if on a low carb diet. Red lentils are high in good carbs, especially resistant starch which is good for gut microbiome. Red lentils are also high in iron.

You love chocolate spread like nutella but avoid it because of high sugar content and palm oil?
Fix & Fogg have released a new peanut butter chocolate spread which is much healthier (4 star rating) with no palm oil, much less sugar, carbs (less than 1g) and tastes pretty chocolatey!
I prefer it to straight peanut butter and love getting the extra health benefits of cocoa!
