Susan Hegedus

Author and freelance health and wellbeing writer, Susan Hegedus was prompted to write a cookbook on Type 2 Diabetes following the diagnosis of her husband who has this condition. With men in mind, the recipes are quick and easy. The book also acts as a support guide for anyone living with a partner who has this illness.

Another man in her life goes by the name of the 'Green Man,' which is an ancient carving of a man's head entwined in foliage and found in medieval churches. It was her mission to find out exactly where this alluring icon lurked in the county of Essex. But more recently this motif has been adopted by garden nurseries, on the labels of healthy foods and as a general symbol for health and wellbeing.
