Chocolate and Eggs: Easter Food Superheroes or Arch-villains?

It’s Easter, the season of eggs and chocolate. But what’s the latest advice about these foods? Do they harm or heal?

Eggs Research and improved understanding means eggs are no longer a nutritional Big Bad Wolf.

Packed with goodness A medium egg is very low in carbohydrates and supplies over 10% of our daily protein needs. Containing just 66 kcals and 4.6g of fat (only one third saturates), it’s a great source of nutrients often scarce in UK diets; around 20% of us are Vitamin D deficient. Eggs provide a third of daily Vitamin D requirements, around half our required Vitamin B12 and selenium, and Vitamin A, Vitamin B2, folate, biotin, iodine and phosphorous.

What about cholesterol? And salmonella?

Research shows that cholesterol found in eggs and other foods has a negligible effect on our cholesterol levels.

Our body makes cholesterol and levels are raised by many factors. Saturated fat was the main suspect until recently, when a fresh look at the evidence cast some doubts.

Regarding salmonella, the Food Standards Agency recommends, for now, that vulnerable groups should only eat hard-boiled eggs. However, a massive increase in chicken vaccination has more than

halved infection cases. All eggs with the Lion Mark come from vaccinated chickens and all 150,000 tested during the last two years were salmonella free.

Chocolate Chocolate has been accused of causing acne, obesity, high blood pressure, coronary artery disease and diabetes, among others. But it’s not necessarily guilty, and may have beneficial effects.

• Acne. There’s no scientific proof that chocolate causes acne; research suggests foods with a high glycaemic load may be guilty.

• Obesity & diabetes. Due to high sugar and fat, overindulgence may show on the scales. However, recent studies show chocolate can lower your insulin resistance (potentially reducing diabetes risk). A study of 1,500 teens showed that those eating 1.5oz of chocolate daily had less body fat and more energy than those eating 0.16oz daily, so some scientists say 1.5 ounces a day may be beneficial (that’s just a square and a half). Experts say diabetics can eat chocolate, but should monitor their total carbohydrate intake.

• Cardiovascular health, cholesterol levels and blood pressure. Many studies suggest that cocoa has beneficial effects on cardiovascular health, improving blood pressure, vascular function and blood

flow and reducing clot risk. It may lower cholesterol slightly, but only as part of a low fat diet.

• stroke. A study involving 44,489 people concluded that chocolate eaters were 22% less likely to suffer a stroke and 46% less likely to die from one.

• Brain function. Chocolate can help preserve the brain’s blood flow and prevent memory decline in older people, and could be important in diseases like Alzheimer’s.

• Mood. Chemicals in chocolate can raise our serotonin levels and affect other receptors in the brain that trigger feelings of well-being.

• Migraine. While chocolate contains chemicals believed to be migraine triggers, recent data shows that some cocoa compounds may be beneficial in migraine treatment.

• Osteoporosis. The bad news: chocolate may contribute to osteoporosis. One study of women aged 70-85 found that daily chocolate consumers had lower bone density and strength.

Proper comparisons haven’t been done between white, milk and dark chocolate, but most beneficial effects come from cocoa content. So choose high cocoa content varieties low in sugar and fat, and eat chocolate in moderation as part of a healthy diet.

Do you love doing business, but hate picking up the telephone to make that initial sales call or appointment? Or perhaps you have a particular message to get out but just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the time to do it yourself. Well, stress no longer!

Local business man, David Taylor, is instrumental in helping his clients achieve growth by arranging qualified Business Appointments by telephone, and can construct any sort of telemarketing campaign to suit you.

But why should you choose The Appointment Maker to do this sort of work for you? In Davidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own words, business is all about building relationships. However, his approach is simple, mature, polite, non-pushy and to the point, thus giving that relationship a chance from the very first word. He makes all the calls himself to ensure continuity and as he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work on a contract basis, he pulls out all the stops to make your campaign as successful as possible, in this way ensuring that you will use his services again in the future! He is experienced in contacting decision makers in companies ranging from SMEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to large corporates, and both his clients and their target clients are to be found UK wide.

He charges a simple hourly rate, which includes call costs, and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t charge any extra for script development or reporting (in other words, no hidden charges!) and will make as many calls as possible in the time designated. At the end of each day, he will send you a full report of any appointments made along with the calling statistics for that session. He is also happy to conduct a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Trial Campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of telemarketing to assess the possible success of any longer term strategy and to make sure that would be the correct strategy for your business. So, if you are wanting to bring something to the marketplace, why not get The Appointment Maker to assist â&#x20AC;Ś..

Cake and Bake Banana, Walnut & Chocolate Cake Bananas ripen so quickly that it’s easy to find yourself with several left over needing to be used up. Many people don’t like the taste or smell of ripe bananas though so they often go to waste. However, when baked in a cake they lose their slightly sour smell and give a subtle taste, which is particularly delicious when combined with chocolate and walnuts.

Ingredients:

1.

• 100g butter at room temperature

Preheat the oven to 180C, 160C for fan oven or gas mark 4.

2.

Grease a 900g loaf tin and line with greaseproof paper

3.

Cream the sugar and butter together until fluffy

4.

Add the eggs and the vanilla essence and then the bananas and mix in well

5.

Carefully mix in the flour and bicarb, baking powder and cinnamon so there are no lumps, then fold through the dark chocolate and most of the walnuts.

6.

Pour the batter into the loaf tin and bake for 45-55 minutes until a skewer through the centre comes out clean.

• 100g Walnuts (Chopped or whole)

7.

Leave on a rack until cool before serving to allow time for the chocolate to set.

• 75g Dark chocolate chopped or coarsely grated

8.

Sprinkle with icing sugar and a few more chopped walnuts.

• 100g light brown sugar • 25 grams caster sugar (white or golden) • 2 large eggs • 1 tsp vanilla essence • 3-4 ripe bananas (depending on size), mashed • 175g plain flour • 1� tsp baking powder • 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda • � tsp cinnamon

Local People - A Teenage Perspective â&#x20AC;Ś...

A small group of students from various year groups at Macclesfield Academy meets regularly to discuss ideas, work together and support each other as writers.

Our articles look at life from a sometimes refreshingly different perspective!

This month, a thought provoking piece by Callum Bancroft.

Life without Technology Unless you have been living under a rock for the last 50 years, you would have noticed that technology has moved on from books to typewriters to the World Wide Web. It is not just used for communication but to check how your favourite celebrity is feeling or how much a train ticket from Manchester to London costs. All this can be discovered without having to leave your armchair.

The importance of technology in the modern world can hardly be overstated. One way or the other technology affects almost everything we do and it also influences our plans for the future. In our everyday life we owe technology for our modern way of living. For example when we use a mobile phone to call our friends, watch a film on television, listen to songs recorded on a CD, listen to the radio or surf the internet for news, we enjoy the benefits of information communication technology.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fair to say that technology is incredible nowadays and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certain to become even more advanced. But what if we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the technology that we take for granted?

Imagine if it suddenly vanished. What would our lives be like? Would you be able to cope without talking to friends on social networking sites? Or not being able to play your games console? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost as if we have developed a bond with the technology and struggle to part with it, like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a family member or loved one.

Most of the population relies on the internet nowadays, to complete all sorts of tasks from buying shopping online all the way to gaming with other people from around the world. But are we becoming too dependent on technology? Where do we draw the line?

One danger of all this technology is that we are becoming so dependent on it that we now struggle with social interaction, such as meeting friends in person? It can be argued that we are beginning to care more about our Internet speed then the health and wellbeing of other people.

Do we need Google? Can we learn maths better from a teacher than an iPad? What good is an education if a child can't learn how to use a physical dictionary? To answer these questions I would argue that we do not need Google, a great maths teacher is much better than an iPad app, and it's important that we continue to know and use a physical dictionary.

So, the truth is we can live without technology. We did before the technology we have today existed. So we can do it now. There is no doubt that technology does have its uses. However, many of us are now addicted to the technology that pollutes are lives. Technology does not matter more than our family and friends so . . . Stop!

Take a look at your life and ask yourself the question: What means more to you, life or technology?

Callum is thirteen years old and enjoys acting, reading and writing stories. He is an enthusiastic collector of scisci- fi/fantasy memorabilia, and has a colossal collection of comics and collectables. He has even named his cat after a character from XX - Men! In the future he hopes to be an actor and feature in movies, sitcoms and theatre. 7R DGYHUWLVH ZLWK XV MXVW FDOO

It IS Easy Being Green

Get clued up this month ahead of Earth Day on the 22nd. Kermit actually had it all wrong: with so many great books around to help us be more environmentally aware, it’s just a matter of making some simple changes, and finding the right books to help us along the way.

The Green Book by Elizabeth Rogers and Thomas M. Kostigen This book is packed with information about small efforts that can make a big difference.

It has thought-provoking facts and figures for when you’re standing there cleaning your teeth with the tap running.

There are celebrity hints and tips including pearls of wisdom from Robert Redford, Jennifer Aniston and Justin Timberlake to name but a few.

1960s. This hugely-influential work, and Carson’s findings on the destruction caused by pesticides changed laws and helped to get harmful substances banned from use in the USA and many other countries. She opens the book by quoting Keats: ‘The sedge is wither’d from the lake, and no bird sings.’ Thanks to the pioneer of the ‘Deep Ecology’ movement, the Carson revolution lives on within every new reader.

Last Chance to See… by Douglas Adams and Mark Carwardine Bestselling author of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams has teamed up with zoologist Mark Carwardine for a round the world voyage in search of some of the planet’s most critically endangered species.

On their journey they encounter some bizarre and astounding creatures that are perilously close to being wiped out altogether. Adams’ reactions are often those of someone coming face to face with an alien species and it’s often hilarious.

How Bad Are Bananas? : The Carbon Footprint of Everything by Mike BernauLee We talk about our giant, trampling, carbon footprints, but exactly how bad is it to take a transatlantic flight, or use a plastic carrier bag, or buy bananas? This book takes us, step by step through around 100 everyday items and occurrences to show the impact our daily existence is having on the planet. It’s an entertaining, though sometimes disturbing, read.

Silent Spring by Rachel Carson Silent Spring was a revolution when it was published in the

An Inconvenient Truth: The Planetary Emergency of Global Warming and What We Can Do About It by Al Gore Former Vice President of the United States, Gore is an

articulate and prolific ‘green’ campaigner who has long been on a mission to raise awareness of global warming. Gore writes in a succinct, passionate and compelling way about the need to halt climate change and react now, rather than thinking it’s something that’s happening at a glacial pace. He brings urgency and momentum to the debates, insisting that governments need to stop ignoring this most inconvenient of truths: that our planet is heating-up and we have a critical situation on our hands.

Mates, Dates and Saving the Planet by Cathy Hopkins If you’re like, totally into saving the planet and stuff (and you’re a teenage girl) then this edition of Cathy Hopkins’ popular teenage series is ‘totes amazeballs’ for sorting out your carbon footprint. Lucy, Izzie, TJ and Nesta have loads of great top tips on how to make a difference, one knickers drawer at a time. There’s plenty of advice on how to look good whilst being good and showing you actually care about our planet. If you’re not a teenage girl, but live with one, then this book could help drastically reduce household bills. Saving the planet has never been so cool.

Gardening Bringing Up Babies

by Pippa Greenwood

generally want to grow several individuals of the same species and I suggest you choose an odd number, perhaps three, or five for a much larger garden, as this invariably makes a better display than if even numbers of plants are used. It may be tempting to plant too close and although this will provide a better looking display initially, over-crowded plants are less likely to become well established, will have to be moved in the near future and in the meantime will be more prone to numerous diseases.

A visit to any nursery or garden centre at this time of year will reveal a brilliant array of herbaceous perennials. Right now they might be small and not look particularly enticing but just take a look at the illustration on the label and you will see that these small plants have great potential. They’re also great value, usually somewhere around the £1.50£2.50 mark.

It’s essential that newly planted perennials are given that little bit of extra tender loving care.

Small plants such as these are more likely to be prone to any weather extremes and even plants in larger pots should be well established.

When you ease the plants out of their pots, if you see a really plentiful supply of roots that usually means you have purchased a good plant.

Check the plant labels to see the ultimate spread of the plant. For the best effect you

It’s also essential to plant at the correct depth. With herbaceous perennials you need to make sure that you place the plant in the ground to the same depth that it was in the container and although you may decide to mulch the soil afterwards, do remember not to mulch right up to or over the crown of the plant, as this is likely to lead to poor growth and maybe even dieback.

Weed control is essential and you can either hoe regularly between the plants to prevent the weeds causing competition or you can use a deep mulch or perhaps even place squares of landscape fabric or black polythene around each plant.

Do remember however, if you use polythene, rain will not be able to penetrate through it and so the plants are more likely to suffer from drought.

With landscape fabric this is not a problem. I’m a great fan of copper-impregnated and coated fabrics as these help to keep weeds and slugs and

snails at bay. Once you have dug over the whole bed, then it’s well worthwhile adding a general fertilizer. If you notice that the soil is on the heavy side, I suggest incorporating plenty of bulky organic matter and grit. Similarly, if the soil is excessively dry, then you could try to improve its texture by incorporating large quantities of any good bulky organic matter. Once the plants are in position, firm the soil thoroughly and do take care not to compact it if it’s on the heavy side. Regular watering is essential and if the ground is not already quite moist, you should water the plants in well.

Check them regularly for signs of any pests or diseases as it will be much easier to stop something in its tracks if you start to take action early on in the season.

Pippa loves growing gorgeous veg and wants to persuade you to as well; visit Pippa’s website www.pippagreenwood.com for the ‘Grow Your Own with Pippa Greenwood’ veg growing system where she will send you garden ready plants and weekly advice and tips emails, making veg growing easy, productive and fun.

BARNABY IS CALLING YOU! Macclesfield’s Barnaby Festival organisers have set a challenge to get more Maxonians involved than ever before.

Whether you’re a crafty creative, a musician or performer, have some gear for the junkyard or happy to donate a few bob, there are myriad ways to get involved, both in the run up to, and during the festival itself.

Remember the distinctive Barnaby washing lines strung across town last year? Barnaby needs sewing bees to make 20 industry-themed washing lines, featuring 300 items of clothing, as well as bunting, pennants and banners. Open-to-all workshops are taking place every Tuesday from 7-9pm at Community Artspace, Sutton Mill – corner of Heapy Street / Gunco Lane.

Carnival Parade director, John Hartshorn, is on the look out for musicians, singers, actors and dancers as well as folk to help create costumes and floats.

Inspired by the festival theme 'Industry', this year’s parade on Saturday 21 June will include chimney sweeps, steam punks and mad scientists. The list of bits ‘n bobs he would like donating include: old door locks, bits of plumbing, broken watches, damaged jewellery, old uniform, bits of engine – everything will come in useful!

Budding musicians and performers can apply to gig on the Market Place stage as part of the Big Weekend on Saturday 21 June. The best local bands and solo artists will be selected and given a slot to impress the crowds.

Email mail@barnabyfestival.org.uk for details.

Snap happy photographers are being challenged to enter the Barnaby Photography Competition. With a theme of ‘industry’, the best images will be exhibited in estate agents’ windows on Church Street and the winners (under 15 years, and 16+) will received a framed art print of their winning photo. It’s free to enter! Deadline for submission is 8 May 2014.

And if time is short you could become a friend of Barnaby for just £35. In return, you’ll get two tickets to the Festival Opening Reception, invites to exhibition previews, priority booking, an invitation to meet the Mayor, special viewing of the Carnival Parade and much more!

Go to www.barnabyfestival.org.uk for more details.
