EAT WELL DOCTOR’Sorders 1 and oysters Mussels CONTAIN: Protein, zinc, calcium, omega-3 fatty acids, potassium and magnesium. GOOD FOR: A low-fat source of protein that can help to fight against stroke. WHY I LOVE IT: ‘I love all types of fish, but my favourites are mussels and oysters. When I go to France, I always choose moules frites in restaurants - they're irresistible.' 3 5 Rhubarb crumble CONTAINS: Calcium, lutein and antioxidants. GOOD FOR: Potentially fighting off cancer cells. WHY I LOVE IT: ‘I’ve always enjoyed eating rhubarb although I realise it’s quite an acquired taste! I liked eating it even as a child – and I still love it in a crumble. My mum makes a really delicious one. I also adore rhubarb jam.’ Fresh mango CONTAINS: Antioxidants, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E and dietary fibre. GOOD FOR: Lowering blood cholesterol levels and the risk of developing heart disease and diabetes. WHY I LOVE IT: ‘I just love the flavour of this juicy fruit – it’s great on its own or in a salsa with savoury meals. Plus, it’s really high in fibre, so is great for digestion.’ 030 Dr Hilary Jones’ Healthcare guide – West Midlands 2 4 A glass of red wine CONTAINS: Antioxidants. GOOD FOR: Heart health and reducing cholesterol in the blood vessels. WHY I LOVE IT: ‘My absolute favourite red wine is Amarone della Valpolicella – it's just a really lovely wine. And I have a penchant for a good bottle of claret, too. I also enjoy a glass of Champagne – in moderation, of course!’ Slice of fruit cake CONTAINS: Fibre, iron, protein and healthy fats. GOOD FOR: Reduced cholesterol levels and an increase in energy. WHY I LOVE IT: ‘My favourite is homemade fruit cake – or iced Christmas cake during the festive season. Thankfully none of my children are keen on it which means there’s always more for me!’ GET YOUR JUST DESSERTS A small amount of dark chocolate is the perfect guilt-free treat Contains: Antioxidants and flavonols. Good for: Boosting blood flow and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke in adults. Why I love it: ‘I love all chocolate, but especially dark chocolate and bars with fruit and nuts in them. However, there’s one thing I just don’t understand and that’s when people mix chocolate with things, such as strawberries. I know a lot of people enjoy that but I just don’t get it!’ n Dr Hilary’s diet is a varied affair. Here are his absolute menu must-haves WORDS: Holly Quayle, Jo Willacy | PHOTOGRAPHS: Getty Images
