  • How do you prevent comfort eating and overcome the addiction to food?
    Jun 19 2023

    What we eat and how we eat is a large part of the obesity problem and the growing waistlines we see today. It’s very hard to resist the foods we love and there are very good reasons as to why. First, there’s the food manufacturers themselves that have an uncanny ability to create food that smells, tastes, and looks delicious. But it’s not just the crafty work of the food manufacturers, we also have our ancestors to thank. As hunter gatherers we evolved to seek out high energy, nutrient dense foods, which gave us best bang for our buck. Food wasn’t always available, and it was hard to come by, so we gouged when it was available. Fast forward to today’s environment - our genes haven’t changed but our food environment has. The added fat, salt and sugars in these processed foods trigger addictive-like eating behaviours.

    How do you prevent the cravings? And how do you prevent the associated weight gain that comes with your favourite foods? Join Dr Nick as he takes you on a deep dive into the studies to find out.

  • Is going gluten-free a good idea?
    Jun 7 2023

    Coeliac disease is an auto-immune disorder triggered by the consumption of gluten; a protein found in wheat, rye and barley, to give products such as bread their elasticity and texture. When people with coeliac disease eat gluten, they damage their small intestine and can’t absorb nutrients from food. They end up with unpleasant side effects such as itchy skin, heartburn, diarrhoea, bloating and constipation.

    Despite the increase in gluten-free products in shops and people avoiding it, the disease only affects 1 per cent of the population.

    Gluten is unsafe for those with coeliac disease BUT is it an issue for the rest of the population? Is going gluten-free a good idea? Join Dr Nick as he takes you on a deep dive into the studies to find out.
