[01:50] – How do you define functional nutrition? How does it differ from traditional dietetics?
- Functional nutrition emphasises addressing the root cause of health issues rather than merely treating symptoms.
- It recognizes the interconnectedness of bodily systems and focuses on personalised approaches to optimise health.
- Traditional dietetics, while valuable for population-level interventions, may not delve deep enough into individual needs and underlying imbalances.

- Sleep plays a crucial role in overall health, impacting everything from physical repair to insulin response.
- I incorporate sleep hygiene practices into my coaching, emphasising the importance of adequate rest for optimal well-being.
[22:33] – What strategies would you recommend for maintaining a healthy lifestyle in a very busy schedule?
- Be realistic to set goals that are challenging but achievable.
- We don’t have to be all or nothing.
- Live by the 80/20 principle, where 80% of food choices nourish the body’s needs, while 20% allow for enjoyment.
