In this interview with Vitality, the health insurance specialists, I explain how diet can be successfully used to resolve mental and physical illness. I compare my father’s personal journey with nutrition versus medication and ECT for treating his severe depression.

We also talk discuss my personal journey, the scientific evidence to support the role of nutrition in resolving disease, the role of the autonomic nervous system, the impact of different nutrients and different diets, the importance of individualised diet, biomarkers for mental health, the role of refined carbohydrates, and the importance of personal empowerment and motivation.
