Healthy – Your Natural Health Expert

Healthy – Your Natural Health Expert: Well Yes, Healthy Magazine from Holland and Barrett is awash with advice from Nutritionists from Vicki Edgson talking about her hormones and the latest from Ian Marber ( who Yvonne worked with at The Food Doctor) and his crew of diary dieters.

But our Harley Street Nutritionist expert Yvonne Bishop-Weston did manage to squeeze into the nutritional throng this month along with psychologist Rose Aghdami in a little weight loss quiz on styles of diet and eating styles by Hannah Fox.

It's good to see the psychology of successful sustainable weight loss is finally making it into the mainstream against a tidal wave of quackalogical gimmicks , shakes and dangerous diet pills

More nutrient dense food, less calorie rich nutrient stripped food!

Metabolism: What is it and how can you boost yours? | Metro.co.uk

Metabolism: What is it and how can you boost yours? | Metro.co.uk: Harley Street London Nutritionist Yvonne Bishop-Weston discusses ways to boost metabolism in The Metro, London

‘Your metabolism is the speed at which your body cells burn calories and use energy,’ explains Yvonne Bishop-Weston, Harley Street nutritionist at Optimum Nutritionists. ‘The faster your cells work, the faster you burn calories; the slower they work, the longer it takes.’


Bishop-Weston says one common symptom of stress-related metabolic slowdown is putting on weight despite eating and exercising the same amount as you always have done – or you may find your weight plateaus and you simply can’t shift any pounds. Other telltale signs include bloating, dry skin, loss of stamina, emotional lows, fatigue and lacklustre hair. ‘But there are small changes you can make to your diet and exercise routine that can give a gentle boost to your thyroid and your metabolic rate,’ she says.

Observer Food Monthly | Life and style | guardian.co.uk

Observer Food Monthly | Life and style | guardian.co.uk: Yvonne was interviewed by The Observer Food Monthly last week. As it's the school summer holidays and Yvonne was down in Beaulieu she had to conduct the interview actually in the forest, away from the house and the inevitable cacophony and chaos caused by grandparents and children shouting at each other. There's always a race to get to the phone before Grandpa answers it and shouts 'who are you?' (He's a trifle deaf) 'No - never heard of you!' and they hang up thinking it's a wrong number.

Luckily many journalists work from home these days and are also similarly precariously trapped in the same blighted 'sandwich generation' juggling caring for both parents and children.

The lure of overseas speaking engagements gets ever more attractive escape route via the legitimate excuse of 'work'. Bulgaria and a conference on antioxidants looms seductively.

ConDems Question School Nutrition

Jamie Oliver and Nutritionists furious: Junk Food Back in Schools:

Following the Con-Dems confusion over whether they will or won't condemn school milk, free school meals, nutritional standards for school meals London Nutritionist Yvonne Bishop-Weston was on 3 Counties BBC Radio this morning to discuss what she thought was the most important health focus for schools.

"Allowing junk foods and ditching new nutritional guidelines is a much more worrying backward step by the Government than the furore over free milk. There was still more work to be done on in improving school meals so it's worrying to hear that the ConDems have condemned nutrition standards in schools"
