Fat Freezing vs. Slimming & Fat Dissolving Injections – Which is Right for You The pursuit of weight loss has always sparked debate, but few topics are as contentious as the rise of certain medical treatments being repurposed for shedding pounds. These treatments, originally designed for managing chronic conditions like Type 2 diabetes, have garnered attention—and criticism—for their off-label use as a quick fix for weight loss.

By Simon Lee, Founder of Unlimited Courage   As we slide headlong into a moral degradation, where our women and children become more unsafe by the day, we have to ask ourselves as men, how bad will it get before we play an active role in leading from example? Fyodor Dostoevsky once wrote - “Every man is not only responsible for what he does but what everyone else does.”      This may not be popular, or even desired by many men but the character of a man who adheres to this principle will be far more resilient, balanced, courageous and responsible than a man who just chases

Masculinity can be described as a set of behaviours, attributes and roles associated with men and boys. Breadwinner, provider, leader, self-sufficient, and successful are just a few of the traits that come to mind. Whilst all these qualities are admirable, it’s a rather tall order that places a lot of pressure on the men of today - from adolescent boys trying to find their way in the world to men much later in life. Whilst men are fixating on living up to society’s expectations, are they really giving themselves the opportunity to know themselves? It goes for everyone really, if you

So fortunate we are to live in an age where every day we witness unprecedented advancements in medicine, technology, and science. No generation before now has had access to such groundbreaking innovations aimed at enhancing our health and wellbeing.

The convenience of such advancements often tempts us into sedentary lifestyles and reliance on ultra-processed foods, wreaking havoc on our health span. Could it be that we’ve dug ourselves a hole without even realising it? Can you recognise what’s really

For those who are not, ‘biohacking’ is the practice of using technology and biology to optimise your health, performance, and wellbeing. Biohacking encompasses different approaches, techniques and methods - from nutrition (diet, supplements, genetic factors) to lifestyle (sleep, exercise, stress management) to technology that can track and monitor biometric data or ‘biomarkers’ (heart rate, blood sugar levels, sleep patterns, activity levels) and even beyond that into the realms of cognitive exercises and medical treatments. Biohacking is beneficial because it empowers individuals to take control

More now than ever people are prioritising their health and wellness. As consumers in general, we’re more informed about our lifestyle choices and purchases. There’s a whole world of technology available to track and monitor various health and fitness aspects and businesses are putting more focus on workplace wellbeing. With this at the forefront of everybody’s minds, it’s serendipitous and fortunate for us that Ü Health & Wellness have brought the emerging healthcare discipline that is Lifestyle Medicine to Kent and the South East. From what we’ve learnt so far, it is – quite literally – life-altering and something that everyone

If there’s one thing we’ve learnt over the years, it’s that Sevenoaks is a town brimming with stories - with its rich history, buzzing business hub and remarkable residents. Many journalists spend hours actively seeking out a good scoop. Not in Sevenoaks, everywhere we look there are incredible tales just waiting to be told. Such was the case when we visited Terry Brett, an independent living resident at Rockdale Housing Association. When we caught wind that we had a local sports hero in our midst, we couldn’t wait for the opportunity to immortalise Terry’s words into online print for our community
