Feeling the bunny weighing in on your hips and hopping all over you this Easter?

Consider a few distractions, try eating chocolate dipped strawberries or oranges with bittersweet dark chocolate...
Why not try chocolate coated licorice? Even some nut filled nougat or Turkish delight rosewater or lemon preferred.. you dont have to miss out completely!
A little chocolate can be great for your dopamine, mood and sense of wellbeing! Watch out for the cheaper chocolates, they have been known to use palm oil with larger sized choccy bunnies or eggs rather than the traditional cocoa butter, often smaller and more expensive chocolate!!

It is decorated with 11 or 12 marzipan balls representing the apostles. The cake is often toasted under a grill before serving and is popular in the UK and Ireland.

• Unless you have a medical need to do so, there is no benefit to avoiding gluten

What is Irritable bowel syndrome!
What role does food play? Along with lifestyle interventions, food plays a large role in IBS management. Management is highly individualised and requires guidance from an Accredited Practising Dietitian. Some top line strategies a dietitian might suggest for someone with IBS include: • More or less fibre, depending on current intake • Eating small meals and snacks regularly throughout the day • Cutting back on gassy foods like onion, beans and cauliflower • Cutting back on creamy sauces and deep-fried food as they are high in fat • Cutting back on artificial sweeteners • Drinking less caffeine, soft drink and/or alcohol • Drinking more water • Trying a low-FODMAP diet
