A recent study published in the journal, Nature, examines the potential for three interventions to help humans avoid catastrophe in the food system in coming decades.

 

October 2019 update:

I am completing my PhD as part of BBSRC DTP scheme at The University of Nottingham.

My current research is investigating the influence of dietary preference on micronutrient intake and status. In addition to, exploring the availability and acceptability of accessing vital micronutrients from non-animal sources. My additional research interests include: nutrient profiles of alternative food products designed for vegans, thyroid health and thyroid hormone generation.

I have experience measuring micronutrient content of the diets of different dietary practices by urinary analysis, developing assays suitable for adjusting for fluid intake and protocols to detect goitagenic substances within foods. All of these methods have been developed using measures from vegan and/or vegetarian participants.

Lastly, I can demonstrate comprehensive research involvement as supplied by clinical studies including "PREVIEW." at The University of Nottingham and "The effect of flavonoid rich cocoa on fatigue in people with Multiple Sclerosis – a feasibility trial." at Oxford Brookes.

A new independent eco festival launching this September 6-8th in East Sussex. This vegan music festival aims at inspiring action and providing tools for change through talks and workshops, inviting people to Make A Difference. Talks on fast fashion, the circular economy, veganism, and from Sea Shepherd, plus comedy/reiki/salsa/yoga/massage/life alignment workshops and much more. 
 

Our aim for the Maidstone Vegan Festival is to get people excited about the “fastest growing lifestyle movement”! We are absolutely thrilled to be organising and running this popular festival this summer! We are keen to show people that going vegan doesn’t mean missing out, and that veganism is an accessible lifestyle for all that will not only benefit the animals, but also our planet and health.
