The Programme, week 2: Nutritionist's comments on Simon
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Antony Haynes: Simon was allowed to consume alcohol on only two nights this week. Alcohol, smoking and general pollution are toxic to the body and stress the liver, which struggles to keep your system clean. Drinking extra water every day will help his body get rid of the toxins that build up.
Simon often feels tired in the afternoon – eating smaller meals and cutting out the blood sugar rollercoaster will help balance his energy levels. A small snack including sesame or sunsunflower seeds will provide essential fatty acids which will maximize cognitive function, whilst also providing useful antioxidants (selenium, vitamin E, calcium and zinc), which are thought to help protect against cancer.
