Stay in touch with my snaps from the Instagram app for the iPhone. It's great fun (and addictive) to collect images from sites you like and find useful. Once you get the hang of Pinterest, you'll find it mesmerising viewing. I've grouped my images under food and nutrition categories such as Salads I'd like to make, Food logos, Fats and oils, Places I like to eat, etc. Even if you're not on Instagram, you can still view them thanks to Statigram's great website.

I find Pinterest so addictive! Hours fly by as you view recipes, dining places and new food products on the web - and then pin your favourites to your board. Take a peek at what I've collected in my travels around the internet and re-pin or like them on the Pinterest website.

I write a page each issue entitled Healthy Bites where I discuss a food or ingredient in detail OR suggest ways to cope with modern-day nutrition problems such as finding healthy snacks for kids for school OR how to cope when your teenager decides to eat vegetarian (and the rest of you eat meat) OR easy ways for women to get more iron. The New Idea food team work with me to create a delicious easy recipe - one that any busy woman will tear out to keep and cook later. It's good fun! www.newidea.com.au

As a regular contributor to Healthy Food Guide magazine, I get to write interesting features, answer reader's questions (and believe me some take a lot of pondering and cross-checking) and debunk those ever-present quirky food myths like help for hangovers, or food combining, no carbs after 6pm, microwaving kills nutrition, etc. Healthy Food Guide works to make healthy eating easy for you. You'll find heaps of quick, easy, good-for-you recipes and useful downloads on their website at www.healthyfoodguide.com.au

The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health does incredible work. It's a not-for-profit organisation providing health services for women of all ages. Women need special attention and it's wonderful that there's somewhere reliable for us to access information on things such as breast cancer, osteoporosis, pap smears, ageing, menopause, endometriosis and sexual health. I love writing articles, meal plans and answers to those curly questions for this wide-ranging site which is dedicated to helping women improve their health and well-being.
Websites: their main one is www.jeanhailes.org.au or go to www.healthforwomen.org.au for nutrition and general health matters.
Looking after your health is pretty important to me so it makes sense to work in with one of Australia's best health insurance providers ahm. You can access my monthly articles on key food topics at their attractive easy-to-search website. I've covered eating breakfast, salt, how much sugar you should eat, eating for women, trans fats, snacks and snacking, light and easy Christmas eating, goal setting and lots more.
