๐ŸŽ™๏ธ B12, Booze & the Bigger Picture: Unpacking Your Most Asked Questions


In this third Ask Me Anything episode of the Plant Fuelled Podcast, weโ€™re diving back into your questions the ones that cut through the noise and get to the heart of nutrition, lifestyle, and what it really means to live a health-aligned life in 2025.


From the ongoing debate between methylcobalamin and cyanocobalamin to the nutrient density wars between meat and plants this episode is all about nuance. We talk about B12 forms and absorption, the role of alcohol in a health-focused lifestyle, the truth about protein in plant-based yoghurts, and the difference between eating to survive and eating to thrive, especially beyond 60.


I also share how much of what I learn from our incredible podcast guests gets integrated into my own life from meals to mindset. We cover everything from processed ingredients and food labels to UK cities where plant-based food truly thrives.


This is a wide-ranging episode, but every topic leads back to one central idea: empowering you to make more informed, intentional choices in your own journey without fear, shame, or restriction.



โœจ In this episode we talk about:


โœ… Methylcobalamin vs cyanocobalamin and what really matters with B12

โœ… How I approach alcohol as a health professional (and human being)

โœ… Plant-based yoghurts: protein, ingredients, and what to watch for

โœ… The problem with comparing meat vs plants on nutrient density alone

โœ… Nutrition for thriving over 60 not just surviving

โœ… Why โ€œprocessedโ€ isnโ€™t a dirty word (but still needs a deeper look)

โœ… UK cities with underrated plant-based food scenes

โœ… How I implement what I learn from guests into my real life

โœ… Go-to meals I actually eat (and why they work)

โœ… The power of curiosity over dogma in nutrition


This AMA is for the curious not just those chasing macros or headlines, but those who want to live more consciously, ask better questions, and build a lifestyle that actually works in the long run.
