Ultra-processed foods - think foods that contain ingredients you wouldn't normally find in your kitchen - are everywhere, making them hard to avoid. We all know it's a good idea to cut down on eating them but, with our hectic lives, it's also tempting to reach for these often time-saving items. Habit can influence what we eat, too: it can be particularly easy to reach for highly processed foods at breakfast time, often without even realising it when items are marketed as healthy, so why not pre-prep your own versions of your favourites at the weekend, ready for the week ahead?
HOMEMADE BAKED BEANS
Some brands of shop-bought baked beans contain glucosefructose syrup and modified maize starch to sweeten and thicken the sauce. This recipe uses cannellini beans, which are lower in sugar and salt than the navy beans found in Heinz's version, for instance. You'll get three of your 5-a-day here, too.
METHOD
1 Set a medium-sized saucepan over a low-medium heat and add the oil. Once hot, add the onions and gently fry for 10 minutes until they begin to caramelise.

Air Apparent - Pollution hasn't gone away. It's still there in every lungful, even if we can't see it in the air or on the news. But there are reasons to breathe easier, thanks to pioneering projects using cycling 'citizen scientists'. Rob Ainsley took part in one...
The toxic effects of pollution have been known about for years. 'Just two things of which you must beware: Don't drink the water and don't breathe the air!' sang 1960s satirist Tom Lehrer.Over recent decades, though, pollution has dropped down our list of things to worry about, thanks to ominously capitalised concerns such as Climate Change, AI, Global Conflict, Species Collapse, etc. That doesn't, unfortunately, mean the problem has expired. Air quality often exceeds safe limits, with far-reaching and crippling effects on our health.
