Nobody books an appointment about this. They mention it last, on the way out the door, usually with an apology attached. Which is a shame, because a sex drive that’s gone is one of the most useful bits of information your body gives you. It usually isn’t about your relationship. It’s a reading, and something further upstream is moving the needle. In this episode I discuss why libido is worth paying attention to, what tends to be behind it, and what actually shifts it: Why it’s a gauge, not the problem. What your body switches off first when it decides resources are short, and why sex drive is near the top of that list. The sleep link. The one that catches people out, because they’ve written off the tiredness as normal. Stress, and the state it leaves you in. Why “I’m just busy at the moment” has a physiology attached to it. Under-eating. The thing Paul sees most often and the one nobody suspects. Long-term dieting has a cost, and this is where it shows up. Alcohol. Honest, not preachy. What a normal week’s drinking is actually doing. Training. Why too little and far too much land in the same place. What to do about it. Where to start, in what order, and how long before you’d expect to notice. And when it isn’t nutrition. The point at which this becomes a GP conversation rather than a food one, and why that’s worth doing. __ Instagram: @paulthenutritionist

   Mounjaro: The Unspoken Trap of Weight Loss Jabs

   💡 STOP GUESSING YOUR LUNCH: Stood in the supermarket aisle with five minutes to spare? Grab my free Meal Deal Survival Guide and build a high-protein lunch that actually fills you up, in any UK shop, in under 30 seconds 👉 mealdeal.carrd.co You’re losing weight. You’re also losing muscle. And if you stop without a plan, the fat comes back. The muscle doesn’t. Around 1.6 million UK adults used a weight loss drug last year. Most bought them outside the NHS. The majority have never had a single conversation with a professional about what to eat while they’re on one. This isn’t an anti-jab episode. These drugs work, and for some people they’ve been life changing. But the prescription didn’t come with instructions, and there’s a second half to this story that nobody is telling you. I break down what’s actually happening to your body: The surprise demographic. Who is really taking these in the UK. The leading group isn’t who you’d guess. The muscle drain. How much of what you lose isn’t fat, and why the drug itself makes that harder to prevent. The one-year reality check. What the research found when they took the drug away and watched 308 people for twelve months. Tearing apart my own evidence. Why I’m going to pull holes in the study that supports my own argument. The two findings nobody reports together. What they mean for the body you actually end up with. What to do, starting with your next meal. The protein rule for when you’re not hungry, and the two sessions a week that decide everything. The question to answer before your first injection. Almost nobody does this. If it’s already gone back on. Why that isn’t a willpower failure, and what rebuilds first. Instagram: @paulthenutritionist

   Are ultra processed foods bad for you? UPFs, fact checked

   FREE MEAL DEAL HACKS/ SURVIVAL GUIDE HERE>>> https://mealdeal.carrd.co/ (https://mealdeal.carrd.co/) Your wholemeal bread is an ultra processed food. So is most shop-bought hummus, a lot of baked beans, and nearly every protein bar in the country. If that sounds mad to you, that’s the problem with how this has been reported. UPFs have gone from a research classification nobody had heard of to the thing everyone’s frightened of, and somewhere in the middle a lot of nonsense got attached to it. So this week I go through what the evidence actually says, what it doesn’t, and where the headlines have run well ahead of the research. No scaremongering, no clean eating sermon, and no telling you to make your own bread. In this episode: What ultra processed actually means, and why the definition catches foods you’d never expect Where the panic came from, and why the classification was never designed to do the job it’s being used for The difference between “linked to” and “causes”, and why nearly every scary headline you’ve read relies on you not knowing it The one study people quote constantly, what it genuinely showed, and what it didn’t Why the processing probably isn’t the thing doing the damage The foods on the list that are perfectly fine, and the ones genuinely worth cutting back What to actually do with your weekly shop on Monday morning Instagram: @paulthenutritionist.
