A complete food turnaround

10 years ago, I worked at a lovely little place called The Natural Foodstore, sniggering in my head at all those spending extra money on organic food and vitamin supplements.

Today, as I sit at my desk with my gluten free organic porridge (made with rice milk) with cinnamon and a goji, acai, cacao powder thing on top I am wondering how on earth the tables turned so far around.

Firstly, I suppose, my intolerance to Gluten has caused a dramatic shift in my diet. Potentially brought on from years of indulging in sugary wheaty goodness, who knows. But now it's just not an option for me, and therefore many yummy things are off the menu.

Secondly, the health risks of eating badly are just too great.
