HOW TO BEAT THE WINTER SLUMP

Amelia Freer’s guide to healthy eating

IN her comprehensive new book Nourish & Glow: The 10-Day Plan, nutritional therapist and bestselling author Amelia Freer shares the secrets of her exclusive practice that includes Victoria Beckham, Sam Smith, James Corden, and many other A-listers as clients. The plan has been developed and refined over her decade of work as a nutritional therapist. It’s about ‘Positive Nutrition’, not deprivation.

As Amelia explains: “Today we find ourselves facing a whole new set of challenges. The clean eating movement has swept across us as a tidal wave of marketing and media hype, bombarding us with messages about what we supposedly must eat and what we must avoid at all costs. This movement in some ways has been a step in the right direction — with good nutri- tion taking centre stage and easier access to whole food ingredients — but it has also created a lot of fear, anxiety and confusion.

“Nourish & Glow: The 10Day Plan is therefore not just a diet or recipe book. It is a comprehensive handbook gently guiding you to find your own insights and building up your knowledge and skills, encouraging you to explore a way of eating healthily that is right for you.”
