GI News – May 2017

Dr Darren Curnoe looks at why humans are so unusual compared to all other life? The key to he says in food for thought, lies in explaining the evolution of our large brains and exceptional intelligence. Other stories range from eating fruit reduces diabetes risk and busting the five big obesity myths to Dr Alan Barclay on why fruit matters, Dr Nick Fuller on detoxing and Nicole Senior on the good stuff in dairy foods. Keep Good Carbs tucks into good carbs and good soup and the GI News Kitchen features Sian Redgrave’s Minestrone and Kate Hemphill’s Mexican Carrot Soup.

GI News is published by the University of Sydney, School of Life and Environmental Sciences and the Charles Perkins Centre.
