  • A Good Hearty Chat with the Nutrition Guy. Interview with Joel Feren

    Continuing our series on good cardiac health. Today we chat with perhaps one of the rarest of health professionals. A male nutritionist.

    Joel Feren, aka The Nutrition Guy, has made a name for himself, in an otherwise female-dominated industry. He has previously consulted on recipes with major Australian food brands and has appeared in the mainstream media. And today we have the pleasure of chatting with him.

    We'll be discussing which foods are underrated for heart health and why some alternative milks are not what they seem.
