Is it really your maximum heart rate?

Measurement of the maximal heart rate is the key to planning the intensity of training and work outs.

What are we putting in Our Bodies?

In the fast world we live in – do we have the time to stop and think about what we put in our bodies as our food source? Have we become programmed by the many Advertisements promoting fast food chains as the quick and easy fix for meal replacements?

"Through my many years of promoting organic food and sounding out the benefits of going Organic… – Finally! Today organic farming is recognised as a way to produce food that benefits our health and the health of the environment.....Naturally grown and Chemical free.

Schools can make a difference to educating young minds by developing small organic gardens – and also introduce the grown foods at the canteen to try!!

Your school canteen can be a great way to start to introduce Organic foods -this could be to cut up some raw fresh vegetables
Such as

1. Carrot strips
2. Celery
3. Cucumber

 "Changing the mind set of a young individual to realise that this food group is good for you will provide long term benefits"

Enrico Iasiello
Director of P&A Organics
