  Instead of throwing away edible and nutrient-rich peel of bananas, oranges and other fruits and veg, here are five ways to make the most of them. It would be strange to needlessly throw away one third of the edible part of a banana every time you have one. But that's exactly what most of us do when we discard the peel, which makes up around one third of the average weight of the total fruit . The peel of the banana, like many fruits and vegetables, is not only edible but contains useful nutrients . For an orange, around 20% of the fruit is peel – in 2018, around 15.1 million tonnes of orange peel was generated, according to one study (that's nearly 80,000 blue whales or 2,500 giant redwoods ). For a kiwi, between 9-13% of the fruit is peel. For a pomegranate, there's almost as much peel as there are seeds . Globally, about one third of food is lost or wasted , amounting to 1.3 billion tonnes per year. Food loss and waste accounts for 8% of global greenhouse gas em...

 I sleep so much better now that I do this simple exercise each night! Acupuncture, a form of traditional Chinese medicine, has long been acknowledged for the health benefits it offers, but acupressure, which is less well-known, can offer similar benefits without the need to puncture the skin with needles.  In the medical theory of traditional Chinese medicine, special “acupoints” are said to lie along meridians, or channels, in your body. By applying pressure to these so-called acupoints, you can improve blood flow in your body, which in turn boosts oxygen delivery and helps with healing.  The San Yin Jiao Points The San Yin Jiao Points are particularly important in the fields of acupuncture and acupressure. You have one on each leg – on the inner part of each of your tibias.    Using these acupressure points can help treat abdominal distention, digestion, menstrual disorders and pain, infertility, insomnia, stress, and anxiety. Furthermore, doing s...
