The headlines have said it: Bowel cancer is rising in adults under 50! And then recently, James Van Der Beek died at just 48 after battling colorectal cancer, which really brought it all home!

As a London-based nutrition coach working with the Indian community here, I’m worried. Too many of us are sedentary, eating ultra-processed foods and running on stress — and it’s taking a toll on our guts and long-term health.

But here’s the hopeful part:
Diet and lifestyle can make a real difference.
One of the simplest, most powerful tools?

👉 Getting at least 30g of fibre every day.
Fibre isn’t just about digestion — it supports:
✔ Gut health (your body’s engine)
✔ Heart health
✔ Balanced blood sugar
✔ Healthy cholesterol
✔ Reduced inflammation

Yet many South Asian diets in the UK are low in fibre — especially those heavy in refined flours and fried snacks.
So let’s start with food you love and can stick to. ❤️

Check out my fibre-rich twist on South Indian dish Upma — using wholegrains and lots of veggies, keeping it gut-friendly, quick, affordable and perfect for busy lives.

Small changes today can build big health tomorrow. 🌱

Want some help on getting more fibre into your diet?

PCOS-Friendly Recipe Alert!
As you saw in my previous video, fighting PCOS the natural way is far more effective as it will work on your health inside and out.

But stumped as to where to start? Eating the right foods is the answer.

Every meal needs a balanced amount of protein, fibre and good fats but also try to go for wholegrain rather than refined carbohydrates. This will ensure your blood sugar is more regulated which in turn helps hormones stay in sync.

To make it easier, I'll kick-start your inspiration with 3 pcos-busting recipes, quick to make, but full of nutrient goodness. Scroll through to learn more.

Which one looks good to you? Let me know in the comments.

Hi again 👋🏽 It's Rakhee, your London-based nutrition coach.

September is PCOS Awareness Month, and it’s something I'm all too familiar with. In my 20s, I had all the signs: thinning hair, painful acne, stubborn belly fat, irregular periods, and constant fatigue.

You' d think shelling out on a fancy shampoo, cream, or supplement would sort that out. But it's no cure, just a quick fix!

I want PCOS sufferers to know that there’s a simpler, more effective way. Eating the right foods, moving your body, and balancing blood sugar can make a huge difference—trust me, I’ve lived it.

Since my diagnosis:
- I’ve focused on putting WAY more whole foods on my plate.
-I'm doing strength training at home & at the gym,
- and looking after my wellbeing through hobbies such as meditation and singing.

And now? I have clearer skin, noticeable weight loss, fuller hair, and more energy.
⚡
Believe me, it's been worth it! Because people with PCOS are 4 times more likely to develop diabetes, plus face fertility, metabolic, and hormone challenges. So these natural methods work on guaranteeing your health while getting you back to looking your best!

If this resonates with you, follow along this PCOS Awareness Month for more tips on nutrition, lifestyle, and hormone health

Six Men Talk Health

Happy Saturday guys! Following my last reel, I talked about the dangers of men not taking their health seriously enough. Hopefully it was food for thought. If you're still sitting on the fence, I decided to get some input straight from the horse's mouth.

Here six men, of different ages and nationalities reveal their attitudes towards health. Do you agree with any of them?

Mondays are client check-in days — a chance to discuss how they're doing, what's working and what needs to be tweaked. Today one client back to me with their update… and wow!

He's a 43-year-old father of two. A tech professional working from home.
He’d been working long hours, relied on food on the go and hadn’t exercised properly in years. When his blood pressure started rising dangerously, he knew it was time to act — but he didn’t want to go on medication.

So we built a realistic plan:
< 1,750 daily calories — no starving, just smarter choices
< 10,000 steps a day
< 3 proper workouts a week — nothing extreme, just consistent effort

3 weeks later:

✅He's lost 3kg
✅His Blood pressure significantly improved (see slide 3)
✅He's noticed more energy, better sleep, and real momentum

How's that for some Monday Motivation? And it's ’s not magic; it’s a plan that fits your life — and it works.

If you're ready to take control of your health without flipping your world upside down...
📩 DM me “READY” and let’s get started.
