It seems like everyone is protein obsessed at the moment. 

They're buying the special protein yoghurt, making cottage cheese breads and cakes, even protein ice cream. 

It almost feels like just another one of those things that we think are really important for a little while, before we move onto the next thing. 

Of course protein is important, but do we really need more than we'd get in a basic, balanced diet?

We've seen the data - the wait to get mental health or addiction support is getting lower and the system seems to be improving.

Getting fit and healthy is just about throwing on your running shoes and making a salad. 

The key to sticking with a workout routine, is finding the right sort of exercise for you so that you don't get sick of it. 

We've seen another wave of fitness trends recently, with Hyrox gaining popularity, 75 Hard, and cold plunges among others. 

We'll often overlook these as just being the current thing, maybe even a fad that will boost your dopamine for a week or two before fading into the abyss of the Ab Roller and other 'As Seen On TV' trends.

There's a fairly universal amount of food people should be eating every day. 

It varies based on things like age and height - but for the most part, most adults should be aiming for a certain number of calories and macros. 

But when you start getting a bit more active, working out more regularly or making changes to a sedentary lifestyle, you'll find yourself feeling more hungry, more often.
