What things are worth your time?

Radio 1's Life Hacks

Available for 29 days

Shanequa Paris and Calum Leslie take on the TikTok trend where people share the things that are and aren't worth spending your money on and give it the Life Hacks treatment. Because what's even more valuable than money? Your time! Maybe growing your own herbs is absolutely worth it. Maybe queueing for an hour for a viral bakery isn't. Perhaps learning to cook your favourite takeaway is time well spent, but sitting through all the Fast & Furious films? They just keep racing cars... Plus we're in the middle of summer and only just recovering from those heatwaves! When the weather heats up, eating well can suddenly feel a lot harder. Maybe you lose your appetite, find yourself snacking instead of eating proper meals, or end up reaching for whatever's quickest and easiest. This hour, registered dietitian Nichola Ludlam-Raine, also known as Nic's Nutrition, joins us to answer your nutrition questions and share practical hacks for eating well during the summer months. How can you make sure you're getting enough nutrients when you don't feel like eating? What are the best grab-and-go meals and snacks to keep you fuelled? Produced in Salford by Audio Always for BBC Radio 1.
