In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Rupy Aujla, NHS GP and founder of The Doctor’s Kitchen, and one of the most passionate voices in culinary medicine. We talk about how nutrition fits into healthcare, why doctors are still being undertrained in this space, and how we can shift the way we think about food.

Rupy also opens up about his own story, including the heart condition that changed the course of his medical career, and shares how simple, evidence-based food principles can help us prevent chronic disease and support mental health. Whether you’re a health professional or just trying to make sense of conflicting nutrition advice, this episode is packed with practical insights and inspiration.

Here’s what we cover:

Why food should be part of every healthcare conversation
Rupy’s personal journey and what led him to start The Doctor’s Kitchen
How the medical system still overlooks nutrition
Using lifestyle medicine to prevent chronic disease
Making sense of conflicting dietary advice
The cultural and emotional side of eating
Building a sustainable, joyful approach to food
Why mindset and mindfulness matter more than we think
Tips for doctors and practitioners feeling stuck or burnt out
