The Sunday RISE Newsletter

Every Sunday morning, my newsletter arrives in your inbox. Not another list of things to do. A short, grounded read on lifestyle and the healing properties of food, written for the week ahead. A letter for when there is time to actually read it.

Every edition covers one lifestyle topic and one food or wellness insight.

Below is a taste of what recent Sundays have brought.

Lifestyle:

Why what you eat for breakfast is a decision you’re making for 10am, and what the research says about blood sugar and impulse control.


Food and Wellness:

The Stanford trial that found fermented foods outperformed high-fibre diets on microbiome diversity and reduced 19 inflammatory markers.


Lifestyle:

Fluid loss equivalent to just 1% of body weight, well below the point at which you feel thirsty, produces measurable declines in attention, short-term memory and psychomotor speed.


Food and Wellness:

Why blueberries are one of the most researched fruits in nutritional science, and their impact on cognitive function.


The Sunday RISE has been delivered weekly since November 2025. All back editions are on the website, each one a short read on something that might be useful this week.
