Food deception? Conference on the topic in Lucerne
Lebensmitteltag.ch on April 21, 2016
Can consumers today really know what the food industry is putting in front of them? Do you even want to know, or do you simply want to be seduced? Do faith and trust in the product promise on the packaging beat reason? Do the law and certifications rule out any residual risk?
Under the conference theme of deception, experts will shed light on these and other topics against the backdrop of the new food regulations and current developments. As was the case for the first time last year, LMT’s online tool LiveAsk will be available before, during and after the conference for the interactive exchange of ideas and knowledge.
Here is the program for you

The lecture is free of charge and starts at 7 pm. However, advance booking is required on 044 558 70 35 or directly at the restaurant, as the number of seats is limited. One hour before, from 6 p.m., you can eat something in peace – organic and vegan, of course. Some of Elisabeth Bliklen’s products can also be purchased later in the Vegelateria in the sales rack.

Mabrouk, a vernacular Arabic interjection meaning “Congratulations”
On the
Tubler page of the Manrouk project
which Lira and Léna have brought to life, it says:
“First-class clothes for free. Bring some, take some or both.
We will all have made a small contribution to a “better world”, as at least on this day (January 23, 2016) we will not have supported the dangerous almost fashion industry
Come and bring your high-quality clothes that you no longer need, give them away and take something nice in return.
Or come empty-handed and take something nice with you anyway.
Or comes with mountains of clothes and walks away relieved. As you like it best.
All clothes are welcome as long as they are of high quality. Children’s teenage women’s and men’s clothes and accessories. +
On: January 23, 2016 from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm at Hiltl on the 5th floor, room Ambrosius
Admission is free!
For questions: Lira@hiltl.ch
Or léna@hiltl.ch
P.S: Take a selfie of you in the dress/shirt/whatever you want to give away on the 23rd, or just take a photo of the garment on a hanger..so we can already have a bit of anticipation 😀
send it to lira@hiltl.ch or léna@hiltl.ch
Off to the lavera Green Fashion Award in Berlin this week
In July 2015, the lavera Showfloor took place for the 6th time as part of the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Berlin. One highlight of the past year was the presentation of an award. With the “lavera Green Fashion Award”, lavera Naturkosmetik aims to promote the production of environmentally friendly clothing and thus the topic of sustainability. In addition to ecologically correct materials, it is also about the manufacturing conditions under which the clothing is produced. This must be ethically justifiable and produced under socially acceptable working conditions. Fashion designers and fashion design students can take part in the award, and a jury with expertise in the fields of fashion and sustainability will select three finalists from all the applicants, who will present their collection on the show floor in summer 2015 and face the jury’s verdict once again. The winner will receive prize money to create and produce their own collection, which will be presented on the lavera showfloor in January 2016.
You can find the nominated labels here.

A Green Smoothie a Day Keeps the Doctor Away
But what are these green smoothies?
Green Smoothies were created in 1994 by
Victora Boutenko
and have enjoyed increasing popularity ever since. This is understandable, because with green smoothies we have finally found a way to consume the wonderful chlorophyll* in a delicious and digestible way.
Health and well-being are noticeably improved and men/women are given a surprising amount of energy. This is due to the many vitamins and minerals and, above all, the “living” ingredients that make up your green smoothie.
At a time when more and more convenience products are being consumed and there is less and less time available to prepare balanced and fresh food, it is absolutely essential to eat living power foods without having to radically change your usual diet. Prepare one liter a day and enjoy a glass of green smoothie between meals. This deacidifies, purifies and permanently regulates the body’s pH value and helps you to achieve your desired weight.
* Chlorophyll (from ancient Greek χλωρός chlōrós “light green, fresh” and φύλλον phýllon “leaf”) or leaf green refers to a class of natural pigments produced by organisms that photosynthesize. Plants in particular get their green color from chlorophyll molecules. Plants, algae and cyanobacteria have different types of chlorophyll, photosynthesizing bacteria have different types of bacteriochlorophyll. (Source: Wikipedia)
Recommendations for preparing green smoothies
Recommendation 1
Leafy greens, fruit and seeds belong in the smoothie, but not starchy vegetables, tubers and sugar. These make up a third component in the smoothie and would make the smoothie easier to digest over a longer period of time.
process, which would start a fermentation process of the fruits in the stomach (fruits and leafy greens are easily digestible, starchy foods have a longer digestion time).
Recommendation 2
Leafy greens are not only found in salads, but also in carrot, radish, collrabi, fennel, chewing stalk, chard, etc. However, most chlorophyll, essential amino acids, vitamins, trace elements, proteins, minerals and antioxidants are found outside in nature: wild herbs, medicinal herbs and garden herbs are the kings and queens of the green smoothie.
Recommendation 3
Drink the smoothie as a snack or as a meal replacement (make yourself a smoothie muesli) and your digestion will no longer cause you any problems. You can eat other foods approx. 3 hours before or 2 hours after the green smoothie. A green smoothie is also an excellent breakfast substitute. Drunk on an empty stomach, the Green Smoothie provides your body with many vital nutrients and supplies it with enough water to start the day with sufficient energy.
Recommendation 4
Don’t use 15 different ingredients in green smoothies.
This not only confuses the taste buds, but can also confuse your stomach.
As a recommendation, you can use 4-6 ingredients, e.g. Bananas, apple, lemons, cucumber, spinach and water.
The classic par excellence! This makes it easier for the body to absorb the nutrients and for your palate to identify the individual flavors and highlights.
Get started right away?
The next green smoothie course will take place on January 28, 28.1.16 at 18:30 in the Kochevents Studio with Lauren Wildbolz at Waffenplatzstrasse 11 in 8002 Zurich.
There are still a few places available: we accept direct registrations by e-mail to info@vegankitchen.ch.
