Recognised for his impactful work during the pandemic, he has been at the forefront of groundbreaking discussions on health and diet. His research emphasises the importance of gut health, the benefits of eating a variety of plants weekly, and how diet can influence health even more than genetics.
In Food for Life, Tim provides a definitive guide to eating well, featuring 100 recipes created in collaboration with ZOE’s nutritionists. His approach focuses on abundance rather than restriction, helping people make practical, enjoyable food choices to boost energy, longevity, and overall health.
