It’s not about fear it’s about informed choices.

Here’s what you need to know about processed meats.

⏩ What are they?
Ham, bacon, gammon, frankfurters and some deli meats. Look for nitrites on the ingredients list.

⏩ How do they harm?
It's a combination of factors: red meat, nitrites are injected into them as a preservative. And they're often cooked at high temperatures.

⏩ What to have instead?
Chicken, turkey or other cooked sliced meats
Fish
Eggs
Hummus
Cheese.. All ideally with wholegrain bread for a sarnie, with extra salad or veggies on the side to feed those gut microbes!

Did you know this about processed meat?

I've had it removed from our local school when I explained to the head about the evidence in terms of cancer risk. Why we're feeding children this at schools is a mystery to me!!

Seeing the results. That's why I do this.

Clients book with me because they want results, and that's what I give them.

Whether it's looking to get on top of digestive symptoms like bloating or altered poops, or whether it's someone going through cancer treatment and looking for clarity on what to eat, I'm here for it.

My approach is inclusion not exclusion, and I'm always keeping on top of the latest research so that you can relax knowing you're in safe hands.

Supplement questions? Yep I cover that in my sessions too, as well as other non-diet strategies, because supporting the gut microbiome isn't just through food.

If you want to see my face like this after working with you, ping me a DM x

Let’s leave these cancer nutrition myths in 2026.

There’s a huge amount of misinformation about diet and cancer, often shared with good intentions but little evidence.

Heading into a new year, we don’t need more rules, fear, or unnecessary restriction. We need clarity.

You don’t need to cut out sugar to “starve” cancer.
You don’t need to avoid foods like soy out of fear.
You don’t need a cupboard full of supplements to be doing this “right”.

What actually helps is personalised, evidence-based nutrition advice that considers your diagnosis, treatment, symptoms, and real life, not headlines or trends.

Food should support you, not stress you.
And nutrition advice should help you feel calmer and more confident, not more restricted.

If you’re ready to let go of fear-based nutrition advice and start 2026 with more clarity and confidence around food, support is available.

People with cancer are routinely given nutrition advice that is confusing, contradictory and often inaccurate, being rooted in fear rather than evidence.

Sometimes this misinformation comes from social media. But sometimes it comes from your oncologist or even your surgeon.

No wonder food becomes stressful.

If you've felt anxious or overwhelmed around food after a cancer diagnosis you're not alone.

Cancer nutrition doesn't have to be this confusing.

I'm a cancer specialist dietitian, with published research on diet and cancer survivorship.

Nutrition doesn't have to be restrictive to be effective.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is eat more, not less.

Which one hit home for you?

People don't need more rules, they need clarity.

At Green Light Nutrition the focus stays on inclusion, evidence, and helping people feel safe around food again, whether they're navigating cancer treatment, long-term gut symptoms, or years of confusing advice online.

Thank you for being here, for asking the questions, and for choosing science over noise.

Here's to 2026, with more myth busting and more practical support from my team of wonderful dietitians.

It's time for more conversation about this.

Why do we give alcohol a free pass?

Why do we drink it despite knowing it could ultimately lead to our death?

This isn't about fear.

This is about raising awareness of the truth.

What do you think?

11/12/2025

Alcohol isn't safe in any amount.

Drinking in moderation still increases your risk of cancer.

Let's stop glamorising this and giving alcohol a free pass.

What do you think?

09/12/2025

Instead of demonising a whole bunch of foods, think about what you can add in.

Adding in more fibre can reduce risk of bowel cancer by around 30% ... That's MASSIVE!

Adding in physical activity can reduce your risk of chronic disease and cancer ... Start walking. Going up and down the stairs a few times. Dance around your kitchen!

Add in non alcohol drinks to your evenings. And yes ideally ditch the booze because that one really is poison, in any amount.

Live webinar tonight!! DM for the link x

I'll be separating fact from fiction and sharing results from my recently published research on diet and breast cancer survivorship.

Meet me in DMs and I'll share the info.

Eating food doesn't make you qualified in nutrition.

It's thought that 2% of nutrition information on social media is correct 😱

What works for one doesn't always work for another so a lived experience doesn't equal sound and safe advice.

There's a reason dietitians and nutritionists go to university. Because the world of nutrition is massive and complicated.

Dietitians are regulated meaning not anyone can call themselves a dietitian.

Before you take advice on social media, check out someone's credentials. If you can't find them, move on?!
