“I have more energy, better recovery and fat loss is a doddle” Paul Kerton and Gemma Nichols from Hench Herbivore

Today we’re joined by Hench Herbivore, otherwise known as body builder turned personal trainer Paul Kerton and his partner Gemma Nichols – a nutritionist. Gemma shares the story of how she suffered from exhaustion, depression and acne and spent years trying to work out what was wrong before turning to whole food, plant-based eating. She noticed results straight away, regaining her health, energy and losing excess weight.

Paul tells us how Gemma inspired him and, despite being a huge meat eater with concerns about losing muscle mass, he slowly went plant-based and is now a vegan personal trainer and nutritionist with almost 60,000 YouTube subscribers.

We discuss what foods we should eat to keep our guts healthy, what to avoid if you want to manage your weight, the protein debate and how to bulk up if muscle mass is on your agenda.
