We already know that men have a greater risk of cardiovascular disease, which is why eating heart-healthy foods is so important, but incorporating nutrients like lycopene into your diet to help protect against prostate cancer is crucial too, especially because the CDC says that about 13 out of every 100 men in the U.S. will develop prostate cancer during their lifetime. According to Tom Smurr, RD, avocado is another superfood that men may want to consider adding to their diets. "Extremely versatile, avocado provides completely natural fat and is a great source of fiber and potassium," says Smurr. "This makes it a powerhouse to feel full longer, stay regular, and replenish hard-to-get electrolytes." Hands up if you love Indian food. OK, so that would be everyone then. If you don’t love Indian food, well, let’s just say you’re missing out and leave it there. I cook 2 completely different meals every night, I love cooking so this is not a problem, rather the contrary! Sometimes what he has does influence what I have, for instance if he has steak I lop off a little and have a Peppered Steak Salad , but we do eat very differently.

Up there with the best of them is Port Erin Chippy & Diner.As we are now in the midst of Great British Food FortnightI think it is might be a good time to extrapolate on how I feed this British chap who is possibly a supertaster or maybe just a fussy git! What’s alluring about this place is, first of all, the view. They have a glass balcony area that overlooks Port Erin bay, which is utterly spectacular. Although, it gets hectic on warmer days. Recommendations for nutrients are a guideline, not a target, because everyone is individual and will vary in size and activity levels. The adage continued to evolve for decades. In 1911 an instance used the following phrase in the second half: “he will be richer all his life”. Finally, in 1961 an instance employed the phrase “that will feed him for a lifetime” which was similar to modern versions. Lastly, Manaker adds that "Mushrooms contain beta-glucans, a type of fiber that contributes to heart health by helping to regulate cholesterol levels."

Quinoa is a great source of several essential vitamins and minerals," says White. "It is classified as a whole grain that contains several grams of protein and fiber, and despite being plant-based, quinoa is a complete protein, so I am confident that my body can utilize it properly." The recommendation to eat at least five portions of fruit and veg per day (equivalent to 400g) is based on advice from the World Health Organization, to lower the risk of serious health problems, such as heart disease, stroke and some cancers.

Does the Eatwell Guide apply to everyone?

Expect a bit of posh nosh at this next Isle of Man restaurant. Harbour Lights serves meals from breakfast right through to dinner. And whilst you’ll find nothing out of the ordinary on the menu, everything’s cooked and presented to a premium standard, which is why I always say ‘it’s a bit posh’. While the southerners claim Port Erin chippy is the best on the island, the northerners insist that it’s Bourne Plaice. So, try to reduce the amount of salt in your diet and not add salt to your food during cooking or at the table. Thanks Suzy…terrific as usual!! The Americans might need the translation of "mince" to "ground beef" though 😉

There’s a surprising number of incredible restaurants on the Isle of Man for such a small island. And that’s what I’m going to be covering in this article. Allow me to take you on a journey of gastronomic delight as I share the best IOM restaurants in Douglas and all other corners of the island. You’ll thank me later once you’ve had one of the most incredible ice creams of your life. And no, I’m not exaggerating. It is genuinely one of the most sensational ice creams I’ve ever had. Located at the foot of Snaefell mountain, the islands highest point, this is the perfect spot to refuel after hiking the mountain. Walking to the peak of Snaefell is one of the top things you can do on the Isle of Man, so I highly suggest you do that. One thing we aren’t short of in the Isle of Man is Italian restaurants and takeaways. Unfortunately, not many even come close to Italian quality pizza and pasta; however, Just Pizza & Pasta are an exception.

Hero’s finding that the American public strongly supports technical assistance to transfer American know-how suggests that they can. I stumbled on this coffee shop by accident on a recent trip to the vets with my dog. Wow, what a find! It’s a modest-looking place and might easily be missed if you weren’t looking, but it sure did impress us. Who doesn’t love a bit of pub grub? Great stodgy food plus cold draft beer is a winning combination! Natalie and I spent the night in Port Erin in our camper van on Friday, and we stumbled upon Cafe Red when hunting down a nice breakfast. Obviously, we were not disappointed, as it landed itself a place on this list. While there are various superfoods beneficial for men's health, one of the most significant is the humble broccoli," says Manaker. "This green vegetable is loaded with essential nutrients like vitamins C, K, and A, and fiber."
