Hello. My name is Caroline Peyton, I’m a nutritionist and naturopath with a particular passion for gut health. Nutrition Life Stories podcast has been brought to life to share a spotlight on how nutrition – and food- has influenced people’s lives. I’ll be inviting a selection of guests who may have found the power of nutrition to significantly improve health and wellbeing or who understand how nutrition and food unites communities and is far more than just “food for food’s sake”. You’ll hear me add my nutrition snippets to help explain why food is so powerful to health too. I want to reconnect people to the love of food, its sense of community but above all its ability to nourish and heal the body.

×In this episode of Nutrition Life Stories , I speak with Jon Cook, a fourth-generation dairy farmer from Swindon who’s passionate about connecting consumers with raw, unpasteurised milk and its health benefits. Jon is a 4th generation dairy farmer outside Swindon producing and selling raw milk direct to the consumer. Jon had an idyllic traditional upbringing on the farm, coming home from school for a home cooked lunch and helping on the farm. He grew up consuming raw milk fresh from the cows and he was never unwell as a youngster. He tried office work as his father stressed how hard farming is as a career, but he absolutely hated it and he returned to manage the farm when his father became ill. Jon wanted to connect with the customer and sell milk directly from the farm. He was keen to sell raw milk (non pasteurised) at a time when there was little advice available to do so. Consequently, he set up an association for raw milk producers to help others navigate through the minefield and hurdles to licence and sell the milk. Jon explains the misconceptions about risks associated with raw milk. To Jon, the health of his cows is paramount. His cows graze on grass (not cereals, a non-natural feed) except during the Winter months when they feed on hay and sileage in polytunnels! He milks just once a day and once tested, the milk is filtered to sell direct to consumers. Jon’s customers have seen tremendous health benefits by transitioning to raw milk. Jon had his own health concerns five years ago, including diabetes and being chronically overweight. Following advice from a health practitioner he radically transformed his own eating habits, lost 5 stone, reversed his diabetes and now feels exceptionally well.

In this episode of Nutrition Life Stories , I chat with Guy Ellis, an executive coach from Wiltshire whose 30-year journey to resolve digestive issues has transformed his relationship with food and health. The bulk of his early career was spent in the corporate sector, often travelling the world and eating at superb restaurants. Guy grew up in Aukland, New Zealand and moved to the UK at 21. This episode is a story of identifying the root cause of symptoms, being in tune and listen to your body and reconnecting with the joy of cooking and eating food. Guy had a traditional upbringing in New Zealand and a traditional diet of dairy, meat, potatoes and fresh vegetables with an emphasis on good quality fresh food that had little exposure to pesticides. It was after moving to the UK in his early 20s that Guy started to experience digestive problems causing social embarrassment which he assumed was due to his busy lifestyle, poorer diet and alcohol consumption. As the years went by, Guy just lived with the symptoms unable to identify why he struggled. Interestingly his son also started to experience (even worse) digestive problems that consultants failed to resolve, but at the time Guy failed to connect his son’s digestive symptoms with his own. It took until Guy was in his 50s when he visited Jordan and ate a very varied Middle Eastern diet - often quite spicy, that he experienced no symptoms at all. The one thing missing from this diet was cow’s milk dairy! Guy had grown up consuming large amounts of dairy and loved dairy in all its forms: cheese, milk, yogurt so it formed a significant part of his diet. When Guy returned to the UK and back to his typical diet the symptoms returned with a vengeance. By cutting out all dairy and feeling the benefits, this enabled him to also help his son. This was a 30 year journey and Guy mentioned the difficulty of trying to go it alone without guidance and support (from a practitioner). The positive result is that it has connected him with cooking and eating real unprocessed food. Now Guy loves to experiment in the kitchen and feels really in tune with his body.

I was thrilled that Tom found the time to record this podcast and I know you will really enjoy Tom’s experiences and story. Tom was a 4th generation baker with Hobbs House Bakery. He went on to film The Fabulous Baker Brothers for TV, baking bread around the world. Through his early career he discovered the joy of people coming together over food, cooking and eating together; but equally the negative impact when people are isolated, plus the concern over food waste. Through Tom’s experiences and his connection with the social enterprise The Grace Network (whose vision is an economy that is self-supporting, providing resources to all who needed them), he was inspired to launch a new venture The Long Table at the Stroud hub, which is now expanding to Cirencester town centre in November 24. The Long Table is on track to feed 40,000 people a year using mostly locally grown produce, providing employment and training for young people from more deprived backgrounds. What I love about the whole concept of The Long Table is providing nourishing fresh food, people pay what they can afford (however much or little) and uniting people from all aspects of life over food. The centre will also have a furniture bank, kids stuff (recycled clothes, toys and more). To find out more and to become a Friend of The Long Table to support the valuable work that Tom and the team are doing please go to https://thelongtableonline.com/…

I was so pleased Julia was able to join me on my podcast. Julia retrained as a nutritional therapist and Buteyko breathing coach and we met on a business development course when we buddied up to support each other. Julia shared her story of a very difficult peri/menopause, how she discovered that the impact of eating well and nutrition significantly reduced her symptoms and deciding to go back to college in her 50s to train as a nutritional therapist. Food was not a major influence in Julia’s early life, although like many of us growing up in the 60s and 70s Julia ate what is now considered plain food but without the influence of processed foods. She never gave nutrition a thought in her young adult life, her sole concern was dieting and counting calories. She even admitting making pretty poor food choices for her children as she was so unaware how important nutrition is to health. Julia explains how making simple food choices can have such a dramatic impact to our health and, like me, likes to keep meals simple and easy. And Julia was amazed that when she switched her eating habits the final stone of her weight loss just disappeared. Julia has also trained as a Buteyko breathing coach which has also transformed her life especially her sleep. Julia is passionate to help other women going through the menopause.

It was an absolute delight for me to interview Diana Babics, founder of the Nourish Awards, the UK’s leading industry awards for healthy food, beverages, and supplement products. I am honoured to have been a judge for these prestigious awards for the past three years. Diana grew up in Budapest, Hungary and contrary to what we think, rarely ate Goulash! She spent idyllic Summers on her grandparents’ small holding helping to pick fruit and vegetables and her meals year round were always cooked from scratch and heavily influenced by fresh produce. Paprika remains a staple part of her diet and she describes how to cook paprika correctly to protect its delicate flavours. She moved to the UK to study in 1999 and was shocked at the amount of processed foods people were eating - and that was over 25 years ago. Diana started to gain weight as she never felt satisfied after eating most meals which were highly processed. She also developed a lactose intolerance soon after arriving as the milk was far more processed compared to Hungary. We spoke about having to carefully read labels to see what has been added. The Nourish Awards started in 2017 after Diana began to experience more and more digestive issues and found relief from excluding gluten. At the time there were few healthy gluten free options available and she became aware just how many foods contained wheat! The awards were created to showcase healthy, ethical and sustainable food options: low sugar, natural ingredients, additive/chemical free whilst maintaining flavour. What started with 100 foods has grown to over 400 products including supplements and functional foods and drinks. To discover more about the awards go to https://nourishawards.org/…
My guest today is Dr Hans-Thomas Richter based on the West Coast of America and we delved into a bit more science regarding the importance of the right fats in diets. Dr Richter has a Chinese Medicine clinic in Seattle but has a background in biomedical research. He researched and has recently written a book about the importance of Omega 3 called Nourish and Flourish (available by Kindle from Amazon). Hans grew up in Germany and is now aware that this was at the start of the introduction of processed foods. This was amplified once he moved to the United States at 21. He is now very aware of the importance of good nutrition, the difference between inflammatory essential fats (Omega 6) versus anti-inflammatory fats (Omega 3 - especially “EPA”) and how the change in animal husbandry, lifestyle and diet has created a situation of what is now called low grade inflammation and chronic disease. This is worth a listen to appreciate why supplementing the right fats is so important in the Western World to help protect our health long term.…
My guest today is Laura Dent, joint owner (with her husband) of a successful commercial and specialist cleaning company called So Fresh and So Clean covering the Swindon area. It was so refreshing to hear Laura’s health journey and how she has used nutrition to improve her health- and quality of life- by taking matters into her own hands. Laura experienced extremely low energy and brain fog from childhood and was bedbound for a time and was eventually diagnosed with ME (equivalent to CFS) in her late teens. She took measures into her own hands by exploring nutrition, juicing, supplements and acupuncture and found that a “clean diet” without sugars and caffeine made a significant difference to her symptoms. But she was keen to point out that her diet is never boring! On top of this she eventually received a diagnosis of endometriosis in her late 20s that at times caused so much pain she would be hospitalised and given morphine. She has found over the years that by staying in tune with her body, keeping her diet clean, low in ultra processed foods and anti-inflammatory, she can keep her body on an even keel and manage her conditions without them ruling her life. Listen Now to her full Nutrition Life Story!…
I am delighted to welcome Lou Joyce to today’s podcast, Managing Director of The Natural Dispensary (practitioner prescribed mail order natural healthcare company). Lou grew up on the West coast of Australia with a wonderful connection to the outdoors, land, nature and natural food. Having spent a week's work experience at a natural health college, on leaving school Lou decided to study Naturopathy. Lou wished to travel and explore the World. She arrived in London in 2008 and as Europe was so easy to reach she decided to start work at a supplement company and has stayed in the UK ever since. London convenience food was a bit of an eye opener and the change to a cold indoor environment much of the year meant a switch from endless salads! Lou was a founding partner of Invivo, the home of human microbiome testing that I utilise in my practice. We discussed the importance of encouraging and educating healthy eating by keeping things simple. We also discussed the importance of wellbeing of teams and employees (in Lou’s company she has introduced growing vegetables and has installed a greenhouse).…
My guest today grew up in Stroud and moved to London pursuing a high-pressure job that involved extensive global travelling and eating a wide variety of (good and bad) foods. This lifestyle resulted in “burnout” and James quit his job. James spent a year travelling in the Far East with his young family. He rediscovered his love of fitness, retrained as a personal trainer, moved back to Stroud and has established a wonderful business focused mostly on the older demographic encouraging those to stay fit and be active into later life. We spoke about the importance of nutrition alongside fitness and the joy of cooking a wide range of foods Podcast 12 Caroline Peyton and guest James Hilton…
My guest today is Louise Muir- Sage who runs Wellness Wiltshire. Louise spent her early years in London at Chelsea Barracks as her father was in the Irish Guards before moving to Swindon. Her food experiences growing up were influenced by her father’s travels such as Mexican and other spicy food which was far less common in the 80s. We talked about air fryers- the latest trend – and why Louise loves hers. Louise had a variety of jobs which led to poor eating – and drinking- habits and as a result, Louise joined a major weight loss company for 12 years. Unfortunately, Louise developed a binge eating disorder with an unhealthy relationship with food; and realised that the majority of her clients were returning again and again on a relentless rollercoaster. Louise rediscovered a healthy relationship with food and now works with others who also struggle with dieting and food. She incorporates this with reiki.

Today’s guest is Lucy Humphries. Lucy spent her early years on the West Cost of America with an inspiring mother who was into natural health. Following a personal tragedy and with a career in London and with two young children, Lucy took time out and after several years retrained as an acupuncturist having found it really helpful to her own healing. Lucy provides a fascinating explanation of Traditional Chinese medicine, Yin and Yang and the 5 elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Food is categorised based on its energetic properties (such as hot and cold). Based on an individual’s constitution and symptoms, different foods will help to bring the body back into balance. Lucy provides some wonderful tips that we can all incorporate into our day to day lives. Podcast 10 Caroline Peyton and guest Lucy Humphries…
Today’s guest is Chris Skelly. I was hugely privileged that Chris Skelley took the time to be a guest on my podcast. Chris is a paralympic judo athlete holding the world No.1 position and at the time of recording the podcast Chris was training hard for selection for the Paris 2024 games. We spoke about Chris’s health conditions including his diagnosis of celiac disease (meaning complete avoidance of gluten). He has to manage this condition alongside the demands of training for the Olympics and the care and focus required around his nutrition needs- particularly protein intake! I love that Chris enjoys all foods from all cultures and has been fortunate with training and competing to experience food from far corners of the world.…
Today’s guest is Bali Martindale. Bali shares her story to becoming a homeopath but how she started to struggle once she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. After many years she felt taking closer attention to her nutrition was a missing link she had not considered before. We discuss the changes we introduced into her diet that made a significant difference to her pain and energy levels and how, now she has the awareness, she priorities nutrition and her food choices like never before.…
Today’s guest is Marcus Collier, a television producer. Marcus shares insights into life as a TV producer, travelling abroad, long days, working on sets and the impact of catering. He spent periods of time as a student as a vegetarian then again later in life when he started to experience digestive “IBS type” symptoms. Marcus finally contacted me after 5 years struggling to get his symptoms under control and having eliminating more and more food. We went back to basics of focusing on digestion, bringing the gut microbiome back into balance which enabled Marcus to bring foods back into his diet fairly.…
Today’s guest is Dave Nelson, founder and owner of Truffle and Thyme, luxury hampers and grazing boxes. Dave grew up in a foodie household, enjoyed boarding school dinners and his love of food has continued to influence his entire working life. His flourishing business grew out of Covid which like many, turned his world upside down. He loves to cook food at home and still finds it therapeutic despite cooking and running his business.…
Today’s guest is a good friend of mine, Michelle Lennon. Michelle kindly agreed to be a guest on my show as I was really interested to hear more about the influences of food in her life. With her father in the RAF on different postings, she spent part of her childhood in Malta and Germany before moving as an adult to be based outside Swindon. Michelle became vegetarian so we discuss the importance of taking care of the diet to obtain certain nutrients.…
I want to introduce you to today’s guest Ken Turner. Ken grew up in North London, learning how to cook nutritiously but economically by his mother; even continuing these good habits as a student. Ken went on to work in the creative design industry especially in TV which was demanding and involved unsocial hours and a lot of stress. This was a downward spiral of poor eating habits and the start of Ken’s long-term health symptoms that escalated as the years went on. After seeking ways to resolve his symptoms, Ken contacted me at least thirty years after the start of his concerns and we discuss how over an 18 month period we successfully reached a point where Ken could really enjoy his life again.…
