“If you’re not a perfect person, if you do make mistakes, you don’t do everything right the whole time; actually, you can still be healthy.”

As a self-described “imperfect nutritionist” and founder of her private central London clinic, Jennifer Medhurst, is changing the mentality around cooking, eating and living a healthy lifestyle. From developing accessible and tasty recipes that don’t use complicated, hard to find ingredients, to empowering people with information to make their own informed choices about what they eat, Jennifer has taken simple and science based nutrition to the next level.

Whether it’s encouraging people to open up the repertoire of the diet to find the things that can improve their health, energy, sleep and immunity, or whether it’s getting rid of the all or nothing mindset to focus on the positive relationships with food, this superstar nutritionist has stories, tips and experience you don’t want to miss.

In this podcast, the superstar nutritionist shares her advice for breaking from a dependency on alcohol to turning it into an occasional treat, why not being perfect all the time is no bad thing at all, and how social media platforms like TikTok can help build personal connections to really get the word out there about healthy, accessible and balanced diets.
