Do you eat the right amount of dairy products?
Dairy is an extremely important building component. It contains 16 nutritional substances that support the development of the body and help in maintaining harmony between the body and the mind. Unfortunately, most of us have an insufficient daily intake of milk, cheese, dairy desserts, yoghurts and kefir. The problem lies in the lack of awareness of how simple it is to consume dairy with daily meals. Precisely for this reason, a very modern application for phones has been created to remind the user about daily dairy product consumption. It also makes recommendations that help achieve a healthy and balanced diet.

Overlooking the sea, perched on a cliff-top, it was named Les Rhumbs, the name given to the thirty-two divisions of the wind rose (the 'rose des vents' in French), and in effect, everything about it alludes to travel. The Channel Islands are visible on the horizon on a good day, and the boats that passed near the steep coastlines had the Americas as their next stop.
