Rethinking Easter: Choosing Lentils Instead Of Lamb Easter is a time of celebration, family gatherings, and feasting. Traditionally, roast lamb has been the centrepiece of many Easter meals, symbolising renewal and sacrifice. However, as we become more aware of the health, environmental, and ethical implications of our dietary choices, it's worth considering a delicious and nutritious alternative: lentils. These tiny, nutrient-packed legumes offer a delicious, sustainable, and compassionate alternative to lamb, aligning with modern values of health-consciousness and environmental responsibility.

In addition to practicing conventional medicine, they promote health and well-being using a plant-based lifestyle approach. They reaize there is no doubt that conventional medicine has resulted in some astonishing advances in patient care. However, the current model of healthcare in the UK focuses primarily on treating established disease, rather than emphasising interventions that could prevent or reduce the burden of chronic disease. They provide a valuable resource for the education of healthcare professionals and the general public alike and aim to empower individuals to take control of their own health. Dr. Shireen Kassam founded PBHP UK in 2018. She's a certified lifestyle medicine physician and author of the book, Eating Plant-Based, Scientific Answers to Your Nutrition Questions, co-authored with her sister Zahra, was published in January 2022.

5 Lies We're Told As Children About Animals "When we're little, we're taught to love animals – we sleep with stuffed cows, watch movies about brave pigs and loyal dogs, and cry when the baby deer loses their mother. But somewhere along the way, we're also taught something else: to look away. To silence that compassionate voice within us. Here are five of the biggest lies we're told as children about animals, and how they shape the way we see the world."
