Stephanie joins Alexa this week to discuss the do’s and don’ts for singers.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Nutritional needs are not black and white, we all need different things in different amounts. It’s not an absolute science that will be 100% effective for everyone. We need to find what works for us.
- Stephanie believes in fats. There are healing fats that are essential for healthy bodies, but the highly processed fats and oils will often lead to inflammation. It’s better to use more natural fats for cooking like butter or good quality olive oil.
- We’d expect to find around 1000 different microbes in a healthy person, and those microbes feed on fibre.
- Digestion is a process that takes time, so if you’re performing you need to time your meals to optimise your body for when you need to output energy.
- Apple cider vinegar is a good anti-inflammatory digestive aid.
BEST MOMENTS

ABOUT THE GUEST
Stephanie is a self-employed natural health therapist, clinical nutritionist, author and health coach. With degrees in Performing Arts and nutritional medicine, and a Master’s degree in counselling and psychotherapy, plus a long history as a multi-disciplinary physical therapist, she combines all 3 skill sets to help people with many kinds of health issues, both physical and psychological.
Stephanie has worked in the natural health field for over 30 years offering a comprehensive assessment of my patients’ health issues to then providing detailed, personalised health programmes addressing the individual’s health concerns.
For 9 years Stephanie was head of nutrition at Grayshott Medical Spa and clinical lead for the 7-day digestive health regime that she co-developed in 2012. Her gut health protocol is the inspiration behind GutGastronomy, a cookbook based on her gut healing philosophy. Since the closing of Grayshott Medical Spa in November 2020, Stephanie has relocated the health programme to Goodwood, where it is now run as a 5 day, fully immersive experience at the Goodwood hotel and spa. Stephanie also holds nutritional therapy clinics in Surrey and Online.
Stephanie is often featured in the media as a health expert; she published her first, best-selling book in 2017 called ‘Why Eating Less & Exercising More Makes You Fat!’, which explains why conventional weight loss advice fails and what to do instead to achieve permanent health and weight loss goals. She has also co-authored a new book on Super Foods with the doctor of biochemistry and health campaigner, Dr James DiNicolantonio, to be published in 2022 and is now working on a new book, ‘Eat Your Brain Happy’ following her recent training in Nutritional Neuroscience, focusing on the critical role of food, sleep, exercise and other factors known to directly influence the health of the brain.
