Healthy Eating & Nutrition News:

BNI's Tony Bishop-Weston from Foods for Life Health Consultancy was heard on LBC's Nick Farrari show this morning with Annabel Karmel talking about Lewisham Council afront on healthy eating.

A family was threatened with having one of their children put into care and denied legal support for following a diet where they ate fish but avoided meat and dairy.

Bishop-Weston described Lewisham Council's behaviour as 'madness'. The child was subsequently found to have a problem absorbing vitamin D, a diagnosis that was delayed by a bizarre witch hunt for vegans. The irony is the family were not even vegetarians as they ate fish.

He said"Lewisham Council should be embracing a diet that has been shown to be far healthier than average rather than persecuting people for it"

"Research in numerous studies reveals that people who eat the most meat and dairy are at a greater risk of preventable chronic disease hence NHS campaigns to encourage people to eat more fruit and vegetables."

The handful of vitamins and minerals available in meat are easily available in plantfoods without the saturated animal fat that can hinder your absorbtion of essential fats.

London Nutritionist Yvonne Bishop-Weston said "Ironically, in our fertility clinics, it's often the meat eaters that are low in things like iron, zinc, vitamin B12, essential fats and key amino acids."

Clegg takes lead in U.K. election: poll

Clegg lands body blow to Cameron Hopes

The political landscape suddenly looks very different as Clegg holds his position at no1 in the polls now creeping up to a week after his performance on TV.

It seems everyone except David Cameron and the Countryside Alliance are now secretly rooting for Clegg and real change.

It's a real body blow for Cameron and the Tories who seemed to think they had it in the bag with the support of Rupert Murdoch's Sun. It just goes to prove you can fool some of the people some of the time.....

Free Lecture Personal Safety - Security

National Geographic London Store - Events

10th February 6.30pm FREE - with Dave Daulby BNI West One's Security expert

PERSONAL SAFETY & CONFLICT RESOLUTION

This is a flexible seminar that can be designed specifically around the needs of attendees.

As this seminar is being held at National Geographic it is linked to the traveller both at home and abroad and looks at typical situations that occur on the streets of London.

The full course is delivered across the “Emergency Services” and is used by The Metropolitan Police.  It also forms part of a Close Protection Officers training and is  recognised by The National Health Service. I have delivered it over several years to Greenwich Primary Care Trust and to Close Protection Officers. In addition Hospitality and Leisure outlets have benefited from the full course.

The aim is to encourage personal thinking and to development a safer culture within a working environment and in the personal life of those attending. 

Typically the seminar looks at conducting a risk assessment of everyday situations and trying to spot problems before they happen.  If that is not successful then it goes on to develop a strategy for recognising conflict in the early stages and through to defusing conflict. The aim is to raise an awareness of violence and provide attendees with the techniques they can utilise to eliminate or reduce the risks to themselves and others.

Topics  include:

Personal Safety tips

The rational and emotional brain.

Fight or flight.

Communication skills.

Triggers for conflict.

THE SEMINAR IS TO BE HELD ON THE UPPER FLOOR AT NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC STORE IN REGENT STREET ON WEDNESDAY 10^TH FEBRUARY 2010

NETWORKING COMMENCES AT 6PM AND THE SEMINAR AT 6.30PM AND FINISHES PROMPT AT 7.30PM.

Many thanks to Harvey Gordon the BNI West One Computer Network expert whose pictures were used and of course to ABBA for the jingle snippet. Apologies to Dave Daulby (the BNI West One security expert) in advance for the video somehow ending up at 62 seconds rather than 60. Apologies for everyone left out but it's difficult to get 30 business experts into 60 seconds.
