Though our cognitive abilities and potential for abstract thought set us apart from other animals, we shouldn’t be tricked into thinking that we are different in respect to how our genetics express themselves in with our environment. We are still animals, designed to thrive in…
In recent years, there has been a surge in the popularity of veganism and vegetarianism, with many people opting to exclude animal protein from their diet. It is important to consider animal protein's role in human evolution and the potential risks of excluding it from the diet.
Is it true that plant-based diets are always more environmentally friendly and sustainable, or is it possible that they may have negative impacts such as soil degradation and erosion due to the reliance on monoculture crops and the use of synthetic fertilisers and pesticides,…
Sleep resets, rebuilds and repairs every facet of our body from our muscles to our gut to our brains. Most people realise the importance of getting a good night's sleep just by how you feel if you don’t. Why is it then that so many people complain of non-restorative sleep or…
Between 250,000-10,000 years ago your ancestor’s ability to get fat determined your ancestor's ability to survive freezing cold ice age winters in northern Europe. Insulin resistance in an environment of scarcity spares energy in your body for brain and reproductive capacity.
What is key is that the more muscle we have, the more glucose we can store which means the more we can handle in our diet. This is why muscle is a true longevity organ and why we all need to be lifting heavy things on a regular basis.
There is plenty of evidence in using lifestyle and nutrition to come off diabetic medication and attain normal control of blood glucose. So if you’re seeing a practitioner of any kind who says this is not possible – it’s time to find a different practitioner.
Low-level, uncontrolled, and unresolved inflammation plays a role in pretty much every single chronic disease we know about, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, auto-immunity, and high blood pressure.
In this blog, we're going to explore the world of organic farming, and discover the truth about organic vs. conventional foods. We'll talk about the impact of pesticides on the environment and our health, the effects of glyphosate and other agrochemicals, and the benefits of…
When considering your choice of animal product - organic, free range and grass-fed is superior. Considering soil health, environment, antibiotic resistance and animal welfare, there is no question that animals raised more naturally are better off.
It’s essential to bear in mind the more markers you do, the more markers are likely to be out of range. If you get an extensive blood panel looking at 60 results, it's unlikely they will all be within the ‘normal’ range for anyone.
In 2015, a ground-breaking study was conducted in Israel where 800 subjects were provided with 48,898 different meals. The subjects wore continuous glucose monitors, had blood measurements taken...
In the 19th century, a French debate raged between two of the era's biggest intellectual heavyweights that would determine the way practiced medicine for the last 150 years, and still do to this day.

I grew up between the UK, a childhood spent moving around Europe, and my family's farm in Portugal. What taught me about food was bodybuilding. It made me obsessive about nutrition, and I spent university talking to nutritionists and learning everything I could. Eating for my own health then showed me how hard that is in the UK, where real food is close to impossible to buy unless you cook it from scratch. I built Champ, the UK's first organic personalised meal-prep service, in Bristol. When it closed in 2020 I had a choice: train as a functional medicine practitioner at CNELM, or build the service I could not find. I started Biospan that year. I wanted to maximise nutrition through food, with clean ingredients and personalised nutrition, and that became BioCheffing. Today we deliver it through private chefs, nutritionists, and a team building the technology to make it more accessible.
Food to these standards, cooked in your kitchen every week, without you having to think about it.
