Brexit

Over the coming days, weeks and months, there will be millions of words devoted to examining the possible effects of the British people’s decision to exit the EU. But in the end, it’s not the words that will count, it’s the actions. We’ve been busy taking soundings from a wide range of players and interests in the UK, and developing a targeted strategy that will be unfolding over the coming weeks. We give you a sneak preview of this in our lead story this week.

Food sensitivities are common. For what appears to be an increasing group of people, these allergies, intolerances or sensitivities make it difficult to eat out. Our second story this week includes an interview of one British, food-sensitive lady who’s decided to do something about the problem she faces. We’re hoping it’s an idea that catches on.

Tomorrow I’m going to Ireland to participate in a public debate, along with Finn Murray of The Hopsack, in a Dublin healthstore, on the virtues or otherwise of omnivory vs veganism. We’ll be debating this nutty (or meaty?) issue with the dynamic twins, Stephen and David Flynn, also known as the Happy Pears. We’ll report back on what emerges next week…

In health, naturally
