Thanks @SACN for UPF update gov.uk/government/pub……. Surely now it's time to lay the man-made artificial construct of UPF/NOVA to rest. Its weird definitions and populist cult fuelled by media-hungry persona. To acknowledge the concept but return to the grounded nutri-evidence.

















My Dad died a year ago today. He was a great Dad and husband, a brilliant academic, a friend to many and a generous and positive person who lived life to the full. I miss him so much, he would have so enjoyed being with me on this part of my own journey. Remembering Mick Gibney❤️
