Lisa Willis (Nutritional therapist) says....

Dear 5JW,

Hello from England!!!
My name is Lisa Willis. I am one of Mr Watsons friends, we were at University together many years ago! These days my job is as a Nutritional Therapist which means I teach people which foods are good to eat so that they have a balanced diet and are healthy, happy and full of energy.

I have been looking at your class blog (which is really cool) and was really interested to see that you have been investigating breads. It looks like you had lots of fun tasting all those different breads. I was wondering which one was your favourite, were there any that you didn't like?

Did you know that some breads are better for you than others? Brown and wholemeal bread contain more vitamins (which keep you healthy) than white bread and help you feel full of energy for longer. Some people are allergic to the wheat used to make bread and feel poorly if they eat bread. The good news is that there are some breads that are not made from wheat such as rye bread, so people who are allergic to wheat can still enjoy toast and sandwiches. Did you try rye bread in your investigations?

I look forward to seeing what else you get up to in class. Keep up the good work 5JW!

best wishes,
Lisa Willis
