This is a traditional Catalan dessert called "panellets", typically made around Halloween with sweet potato and ground almonds. They usually contain quite a bit of sugar, but I used dates and sultanas instead, and they turned out just as nice. Traditionally, they are coated with pine nuts, but I used other nuts, shredded coconut, or cocoa powder.

Ingredients:

For the paste:
• 2 medium or 3 smaller sweet potatoes
• 400 g of ground almond
• 10 dates
• 15-20 sultanas
• Zest of 1 lemon
• 1 egg yolk
• Optional: whole hazelnuts (one in the middle of each)

For the coating: 1 egg + chopped hazelnuts / chopped almonds / cocoa powder / shredded coconut.

Method:

1. Bake the sweet potatoes and set them aside to cool. Once cooled, peel them.
2. Meanwhile, soak the dates and sultanas in water.
3. Grate or finely grind the lemon zest.
4. Drain the dates and sultanas, then blend them with the remaining paste ingredients until smooth.
5. Beat the egg for the coating. Shape the paste into small rounds, brush them with the beaten egg, and coat with chopped hazelnuts, almonds, coconut, or cocoa powder.
6. Bake for about 10 minutes at 180°C. Allow to cool and enjoy!

There are all sorts of detox or reset diets – from juice cleanses, where you only eat raw fruit and vegetable juices for several days, to the easier versions, where you focus on eating natural and nutritious foods, and you eliminate foods such as alcohol, sugar, dairy, meat, gluten and processed foods.

If you’d like to do a detox effectively and without hassle, this is for you. You’ll receive a suggested meal plan, delicious recipes, and shopping lists to make it easy. We’ll also have two Zoom calls – one before and one after – and plenty of support along the way through our members-only WhatsApp group.

Research suggests that rather than being a slow and steady process, aging occurs in at least two accelerated bursts.

The first wave of changes (around 44) included molecules linked to cardiovascular disease and the ability to metabolise caffeine, alcohol and lipids. The second wave of changes (around 60) included molecules involved in immune regulation, carbohydrate metabolism and kidney function.

US findings suggesting ageing is not a slow and steady process could explain spikes in health issues at certain ages

"[The report] they found that ready-to-eat meals would need to contain about half as many refined grains and two-thirds less meat, on average, as well as “significantly” more legumes.

While the report found that would save consumers €2.8bn in cheaper food and cut emissions by 48m tonnes each year, it did not count the additional economic benefits of hospitals spending less money on treating patients and employers losing less money from workers taking sick days."
