The Top 5 Cars for Women on the Move

Charlene Clarke, president of the South African Guild of Motoring Journalists and judge for the Women’s World Car of the Year, gave us a peak of her top five cars for women who balance a hectic work life with a strong family life.



BMW 5 Series

Joint Car of the Year 2010/2011 – need I say more? I had the 535i not too long ago, and in my review of it I really did struggle to find fault with it. I loved the 5-Series so much that I needed to force myself to find fault for the sake of objectivity. So I noticed it had a massive turning circle and burnt fuel like it did not have any, but that was it. The rest of the 5-Series is nearly perfect in every department.


Citroën DS3

I remember reviewing the DS3 in the last women’sedition of Afropolitan, and the DS3 excited me immensely. I was not often given a chance by the magazine to review a car that fell into my price range, so I jumped at the chance to review the DS3. I was so impressed with it that I even considered upgrading. It is fast, fun and totally unique, and as I said in my review, it is the perfect accessory to any garage.


Subaru Forester

One of my most recent reviews, the new Forester, blew me away. My introduction to motoring journalism was behind the wheels of the entire Subaru fleet, Forester included, and such was my love for Subaru that my article won me praise from my editor and a regular place as the Afropolitan motoring man. The full review of the diesel Forester is up on the website now. A real driver’s car with go-anywhere capabilities.



Volvo XC60

The XC60 is Volvo’s SUV. One of their most popular models, the XC60 stands toe-to-toe with the best in the business. It is a solid, sexy vehicle that can take you anywhere you want with little or no hassle at all. I have yet to review the XC60, so keep visiting the site or our Facebook page for updates. I loved the S60 and C70, so I can’t see how I won’t love the XC60. I’ll probably love it more than the rest.



Kia Sportage

The Sportage was a serious contender at this year’s Car of the Year finals. Kia is taking the market by storm for its reliability and value for money. With the Kia brand doing so well, I bought myself a brand-new Cerato recently.

Superfoods That Fight Colds

Boost your immunity



They say you are what you eat, so it makes sense that eating healthy foods can help you stay, er, healthy.
"You can't underestimate the importance of good nutrition when it comes to...your immune system," says Karen Ansel, RD, a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. "Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants—these are what keeps your body strong, and without them you're not giving your body the edge it needs to ward off infection."
And we're not talking just fruits and vegetables: Foods from every food group are represented here. Make them a part of your diet for your best defense against colds and flu.
Garlic
These pungent cloves do more than just flavor your food. Garlic also contains allicin, a sulfuric compound that produces potent antioxidants when it decomposes.
A 2001 study in the journal Advances in Therapy found that people who took garlic supplements for 12 weeks between November and February got fewer colds than those who took a placebo. And of those who did get sick, those who took the garlic supplement felt better faster.
Garlic packs the biggest antioxidant punch when eaten raw. Flavor too strong for you? Consider taking aged-garlic extract capsules.
Citrus fruits
Recent research suggests that vitamin C
