• Was ancient man a vegetarian asks Dr Rob Dunn;

This month sees some interesting studies on the benefits of a vegetarian diet especially for reducing your risk of heart disease and (if pregnant) gestational diabetes. So we asked Prof Jennie Brand-Miller for her tips on going vegetarian the low GI way. There’s also a fascinating research piece on Neanderthals and new evidence about their diet, cooking and use of medicinal plants.

Good cooking, good eating, good health and good reading.
