■■Six million people in the UK experience migraines every year. The Lloyds Pharmacy Migraine Pain Reliever TENS Machine (£79.99, lloyds pharmacy. com) offers drug-free treatment using electrodes positioned over the trigeminal nerve. It uses three pre-set programmes to help target and treat pain and, even more impressively, help reduce the frequency of future episodes. ■■With 70% less fat, 40% fewer calories and 35% more protein than standard cheddar, Eatlean Tasty Mature Cheese (£4, eatlean.com) could save every cheese lover 3,605g of fat and 19,710 calories per year. Lactose-free and made with British cow’s milk, it’s a flavourfilled alternative if you’re looking to cut cholesterol.

Drink four to six cups daily during your second trimester and post-birth.
