Gareth Zeal
Gareth is the UK's leading expert in the field of nutrition and naturopathy and has over 20 years experience at advising patients and customers on the benefits of good nutrition and natural medicine. He has managed top London health stores and worked in the natural products industry as a Senior Nutritional Consultant. He has vast knowledge and experience of health problems and the way they can be helped with diet, food supplements and complementary therapies.
Gareth has lectured at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London and has helped to write several well-known books on natural health. He has also appeared on many TV and radio shows to give advice to viewers who phone in with health questions.
Gareth firmly believes that diet is key to health and wellbeing, and really 'practices what he preaches' by sticking to a well-balanced vegan diet. People sometimes doubt the vegan diet, but Gareth is living proof that you can follow such a regime and still be very healthy. This is evident, as Gareth is physically very fit, doing regular workouts in the gym as well as teaching martial arts.
On top of this he still finds the time and energy to play squash and badminton several times a week. Gareth also has an insatiable appetite for reading and regularly 'ploughs' through medical journals to keep up to date with the latest scientific research on nutrition and natural medicine.
