SEVEN PREBIOTIC RICH FOODS TO INCLUDE IN YOUR DIET + MACADAMIA, GARLIC AND PARSNIP SOUP RECIPE

Naturally Healthy

While probiotics receive a lot of media attention and have a greater awareness, prebiotics do a lot of the heavy lifting. If we didn’t have prebiotics, probiotics would have a poor chance of survival, as some of them depending upon the strain, only last hours in our digestive systems. Prebiotics… View moreWhile probiotics receive a lot of media attention and have a greater awareness, prebiotics do a lot of the heavy lifting. If we didn’t have prebiotics, probiotics would have a poor chance of survival, as some of them depending upon the strain, only last hours in our digestive systems. Prebiotics help promote the growth of good bacteria in the gut.

An easy way to think of prebiotics is that they are like a really good meal for probiotics, helping them to grow robust and strong. With the rise of diets such as the ketogenic diet, many people are bypassing their prebiotic rich foods, and their gut health is suffering.

EarthDiverse is pleased to announce it's newest Literature course, entitled "Villains in Spy Thriller Fiction" available both in-person (in Hamilton, New Zealand) or live-streamed via Zoom to anywhere in the world with a decent internet connection.

How have spy thrillers as we know them developed? This survey of spy thriller fiction published between 1880 and 2000 sets the books in their historical context and shows how they reflect the politics of the time in which the books were published. Spy thrillers also document our own social history and reveal many important issues for us to think about. We will look at the role women characters play in spy fiction and think about why the villains in spy fiction are usually Russian.

This 8-week literature course begins on Thursday evenings 6:30-8:30pm (NZ time). For other time zone equivalents around the world, and for course info and registration, please visit the course page by clicking on the Read More button below.

Mike Walen is a self-taught professional photographer whose business success has been entirely driven by word-of-mouth endorsement.

Now KeyImagery, Mike’s Hamilton-based firm, has become a Momentum Waikato Partner business.

With a knack for the social side of snapping people, Mike really enjoys event photography.

“Three quarters of what I do is about being able to socialise with people, I’m not scared of approaching them to ask if I can take their photo,” says Mike.

“Nothing I love more than going along and mingling.”

Events are the “bread and butter” for KeyImagery, which takes Mike to civic, school and sports gatherings across the central North Island. He’s also been the photographer-of-record at international marathons overseas.

The opening of the Waikato Regional Theatre in downtown Hamilton next year will trigger a major evolutionary leap for the city’s nightlife.

That’s the prediction from Waikato Regional Theatre general manager Gus Sharp, who says he will be eagerly awaiting to see what changes will be spurred by the addition of the new 1300-seat theatre to Hamilton.

And Sharp has some personal experience of such changes, having been involved in the $42 million revamp of the revered Saint James Theatre in central Wellington.

As the designated first aider, Adrian needs to be ready for action at any point.

One night a tutor called, concerned for a student having an unexpected diabetic low. Adrian had managed to devour all the Minties in the office so they had to come up with a solution. Fate has it, the Cake Decorating class was running and they always have chocolate.

So Adrian explained the situation and was given a handful of emergency chocolate. We were delighted when it was reported that the chocolate did the trick and the student was able to continue with their class that evening.
