Have you seen the new US Food Pyramid? A Metabolic Health Revolution!

✨ The New US Food Pyramid x The Metabolic Way = A Metabolic Health Revolution ✨

Big news in nutrition: the U.S. just released an updated food pyramid that flips decades of old guidance on its head prioritising real, nutrient-dense foods and reducing ultra-processed foods and added sugar. 🥦🔥Eat Real Food

➡️ What’s different ?
🔹 Protein, dairy & healthy fats sit at the top of the pyramid
🔹 Vegetables & fruits remain center stage
🔹 Whole grains are still included but with less emphasis
🔹 Highly processed foods & added sugars are downplayed like never before 🍖🥚🥑🍇

This shift aligns with what we practice at The Metabolic Way, a metabolism-first approach that focuses on real food, balanced macronutrients, steady energy, and metabolic health as the foundation for thriving. 💪🌱

Here’s why this matters for metabolic health:
🔥 Stable blood sugar & insulin response — eating whole proteins, fats & fiber slows glucose spikes.
🔥 Reduced cravings & energy crashes as real food fuels your cells without the sugar rollercoaster.
🔥 Better long-term health as nutrient-dense eating supports healthy hormones, energy, and metabolic flexibility.

Let food be your medicine and let your metabolism lead the way. 🌟
This is more than a trend it’s a return to science-driven, metabolically supportive eating. 💥💚

🌱 Ready to Start the Year With Some Health Insight? 🌱

If you’re thinking about goals for January starting next Monday (12th January), here’s something a little different…

This isn’t another “quick-fix” weight loss plan, it’s about understanding your metabolic health and building habits that support long lasting wellbeing. 💪

✨ Why this matters:
Metabolic health is how well your body processes and uses energy, it affects your energy levels, appetite, blood sugar balance, hormones and much more. When your metabolism is functioning well, you don’t just look healthier, you feel healthier, with more energy, better focus and more control over your wellbeing.

Join us either online at 12-1.30pm GMT or face to face in Harpenden at 7.00-8.30pm at The Metabolic Way to explore your metabolism with:
✔ guided insights into how your body really works
✔ practical strategies that go beyond diets and fad fixes
✔ support to make changes that last — not just for a few weeks

This programme isn’t about shocks or short-term tricks — it’s about lasting metabolic understanding and resilience.

Such a fabulous day being part of the Health for Life training event with the brilliant team at supported by 🌱✨
It was wonderful to meet everyone and be welcomed so warmly by Lucie and Sharon.

I had the pleasure of delivering today’s training, sharing my work as from my books and the Young Chef Awards to The Micro Matrix and The Food Teacher consultancy services and wellbeing support in schools. Developing a strong and positive school food culture can be truly transformative, and it was inspiring to work with such an engaged and passionate group of teachers. 💚

A real highlight was hearing about from Emma, Aston Villa’s fantastic Seed to Feed programme, and the brilliant work of the British food foundation. All doing such meaningful work to support healthy eating and cooking skills in schools. 🙌

Birmingham looked beautiful today with a crisp winter feel and a little touch of Christmas magic. 🎄✨

Feeling grateful, energised, and excited for what’s ahead! 💫
