Economic stresses are seemingly everywhere. And a cocktail of social media storms, combative politics, and lowest-common-denominator press doesn’t help. There is just so much negative information swirling around us, and inevitably this will bleed into business life.

In 2007, The Legal Services Act, sought to liberalize and encourage competition in the market for legal services in England and Wales. This statute, together with the withdrawal of Legal Aid (for all but the most urgent cases) means that there is no longer funding to assist consumers financially in bringing an action or defending an action through the courts.

A hugely significant study in the British Medical Journal into age-related cognitive decline and dementia has stated that changing your diet and lifestyle from bad to good cuts your future risk of developing dementia by a massive nine times.
The study also shows, significantly, that whether or not you inherit the ApoE4 ‘Alzheimer’s gene’ that one in five people carry, it makes no difference to the positive reduction in risk achievable by simple diet and lifestyle changes.
