Erin O'Hara: naturopath and wellness expert on the resurgence of fibre supplements

The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley. In a near future London the Government’s experimenting with time travel, bringing five people from various points in history into the 21st century where they’re confronted by the internet, dating apps and Spotify. Implausible though this sounds, it’s fun, highly entertaining and works brilliantly - and I never, ever read time travel but have happily made an exception. It’s wonderful and highly, highly recommended.

Nothing Significant to Report by Dario Nustrini. Dario was just a year out of school when he decided to join the NZ Army, with absolutely no idea what to expect. This is hilarious and highly entertaining - he tells about the back breaking exercises designed to grind down the new recruits, to roleplaying in an SAS manhunt – in a series of self deprecating stories about misfits, mayhem and camaraderie.

The cost of living is continuing to bite, with Whittaker's confirming they plan to increase their chocolate prices in the coming days. Are more of us cutting back on our favourite things? What have we given up?

Shift work - work that starts before 8am or finishes after 6pm - has been found to take a toll on sleep habits and overall wellbeing.

Shift workers, including truck drivers, cleaners, police officers, healthcare workers and security staff, are more at risk of developing fatigue-based conditions and eating poorly.

Naturopath and wellness expert Erin O'Hara says shift workers will need to plan ahead and take medication to keep themselves healthy.
