Professional recognition:

  • Registered Nutritionist (Food)
  • Fellow of the Higher Education Academy

Nutrition: Do it well and it can be one of the most powerful ways to maintain your health. Do it badly and it can poison you slowly over the decades.

About 80% of people in the UK die of diseases associated with poor-lifestyle choices. As a registered nutritionist my interests centre on translational education; taking the scientific knowledge on how lifestyle and the modern environment impact on personal wellbeing and disseminating it to the general population through personal projects, but also via a large number of passionate and intelligent students who I have been  lucky enough to teach during my time at the 成人B站.
