Who am I?
I am a UK based Independent Health & Nutrition Researcher, the focus of my work and research is the Psychology of Dieting and Metabolism amongst other related topics. I completed an MSc in Psychology with my final piece of research focusing on Compensatory Health Beliefs. I am now looking to complete an independent PhD focussing on Disordered Eating, Compensatory Behaviours, Learned Helplessness and Metabolic Adaption. I am available in the UK on a 1:1 basis, and globally via email, Skype/FaceTime.
I have consulted with many clients who are eating salad, avoiding red meat, making sure they have 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day, even drinking daily kale smoothies. They ate margarine and vegetable oils instead of butter, they joined the gym, hired a personal trainer, drained themselves with copious amounts of cardiovascular exercise. Some had even gone to Zumba. They had eaten the bare minimum, gone low calorie, low carb, or just low everything using willpower alone to help them avoid food. They had been metabolically typed, detoxed, juiced, eaten like a caveman, posted Instagram pictures of their "clean eating" Paleo meals, followed Dr Atkin's, listened to the former Dr Gillian McKeith, watched their weight yo yo at weight watchers, been sucked into a pyramid diet scheme and never got anything other than miserable results that don't match the effort they put in. What did they get for their trouble? Fatter, colder, unhealthier, hungrier, and usually irritable, angry and a tad depressed. Erectile dysfunction, cold hands and feet, infertile, anti-social, a swollen tongue are just some of the many complaints I've seen because of one thing...our obsession with dieting and over exercising. If you want the truth about health & nutrition, if you want to get fit and healthy from the inside out, to relinquish your food fears. If you want someone to tell it like it really is, to give you evidence, get in touch via the contact page. If you want a Diet Guru that will give you a pre-printed diet sheet, look elsewhere. My job is to widen your gaze and help you learn. Aided by me, you must learn to do your own research and not simply trust what you've been told. Science not profitable propaganda |
