Some foods act in harmony, helping the body to absorb each better. Others don’t.

Bad combinations: Tea/coffee and cereal -tea and coffee decrease iron absorption from cereal by 60 per cent.
• Wholewheat flakes and dried apricots -dried apricots are a good source of iron, but wholewheat husks contain phytates, which block absorption.

Good combinations: Boiled egg and a glass of fresh orange juice - vitamin C in oranges helps absorption of iron in egg yolk.
• Dhal and brown rice - the amino acids in lentils and rice form a complete protein.
• Fresh sardines and green leafy salad -sardines are a good source of vitamin D, which is needed to help absorb calcium found in green leafy vegetables.
• Muesli with nuts, seeds and fresh fruit -vitamin C found in fresh fruit protects vitamin E found in seeds; vitamin E also protects vitamin C.
• Lamb chops (vegetarian option: nut roast) with carrots . Lamb and nuts are a good source of zinc and phosphorus, which helps zinc to act; carrots contain betacarotene, also aiding zinc absorption.

RULE 1 Take someone you trust shopping. Clearly, you’d prefer no witnesses at all, but you need an honest opinion from someone when wriggling into that Lycra. Don’t rely on the sales assistants for an unbiased appraisal.

RULL 2 If you’ve only allocated an hour for the hunt and don’t find anything suitable within this time, you’ll probably settle for something you’ll regret. Make sure you set aside at least a couple of hours for swimsuit shopping.

RULE 3 Different brands, different fits. Just because you’re a size 12 in that pink one doesn’t mean you won’t be size 14 in the blue. Forget the pride of buying a smaller size and err on the side of figure flattering, even if it means overcoming the psychological dilemma of a larger label!

RULE 4 Check swimsuit labels for fabric type. Lycra offers a firmer fit, while polyester and nylon are a little looser and sometimes more comfortable for people carrying extra weight.

RULE 5 Health regulations stipulate that underwear must be worn while trying on swimsuits. So, never wear your biggest, bulkiest pair of knickers. A flesh-coloured G-string is the best choice, as it won’t interfere with the line of the swimsuit. The next-best option is a high-cut pair of knickers in a natural tone. Black or floral knickers will only distract from the swimsuit.

I met Jessica, a 24 year old law student who modeled lingerie to help defray the costs of her education, a few months ago in a nice lounge. I was there with a couple friends of mine, enjoying a nice bottle of Merlot. One of the things that a Date Pro has is the ability to be aware of his environment, even if his focus is somewhere else. In this case I was focused on conversation with my friends. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed a man walk up to a very attractive young lady at the bar, offering to buy her a drink. She wasn’t interested so she thanked him for the offer and continued munching on what appeared to be an appetizer. This man wouldn’t take “no” for an answering and started giving her a hard time. I could tell from her body language that she was ready to do something drastic such as ask for security or start yelling at him. Here’s a pointer for you: one of the best ways to meet a woman is to rescue her from a man or group of men that she has zero interest in. It was my cue to leave my friends for a moment and see if I could do my good deed for the evening. So I walked toward her and the persistent man that would not leave her alone.

I was always petrified of my father because when he had been drinking he could fly into a rage for no reason what so ever, he was violent and abusive.

He sexually abused me from the age of thirteen to twenty four. I can hear people gasp! Surely at the age of twenty four I should have been able to stand up and say no! But unless you have been so scared of a person you will never understand the hold they have over you. you feel so powerless, which is exactly how they want you to feel.

I had tried to leave home on several occasions only be dragged back with the threat of never seeing my sisters again so as much as I hated myself for giving in I could never cut the ties with my beloved sisters. Head between my legs and confidence as low as it can get I returned, sometimes to face the anger of both my parents. My mother because she was jealous of me and my father because how dare I even consider going against him.

Migraine
Chocolate, cheese, citrus fruits, red wine, port and coffee can all spark migraine. Allergy to wheat, shellfish, oranges or other foods may also be involved. Missing a meal may provoke an attack by causing a drop in blood sugar - so try to eat little and often.
“Oily fish have an anti-inflammatory action, which can help, although the effects won’t be immediate,” says nutritionist and herbalist Dr Ann Walker. The herb feverfew is also a well-known natural cure. The leaves taste bitter and can cause mouth ulcers, so eat them in a sandwich rather than alone. Ginger can help relieve nausea often associated with migraine.
Ideal meal: Salmon and watercress sandwich (including a couple of feverfew leaves); glass of ginger cordial and sparkling mineral water.

Premenstrual Syndrome
Nutritionist Maryon Stewart, author of Every Woman’s Health Guide, says PMS is closely related to diet. “You need 2,000 extra kilojoules a day in your premenstrual week,” she says. “Breakfast is the most important meal. You should also have a mid-morning and mid-afternoon snack and aim to eat a salad and three portions of vegetables every day.
Go for wholesome food little and often, with plenty of protein, fruit and vegetable fibre and some carbohydrate - though be careful with wheat, it can make things worse. “PMS is often caused by low levels of oestrogen, magnesium and iron,” adds Maryon Stewart. “Nuts, dried fruit and seeds are all rich sources of these nutrients, and nuts and seeds also contain naturally occurring oestrogens.”
Ideal meal: Home-made muesli with oats, puffed rice, cornflakes, chopped almonds, hazelnuts, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds; served with yoghurt and chopped fresh peach.
