medical traditions

The foundation

Modern medicine

MRCGP-trained family physician. Rigorous clinical base — diagnostics, evidence, the science of what's measurable.

The depth

Functional & lifestyle medicine

Root cause over symptom suppression. Metabolic mapping, gut health, hormones, inflammation — the terrain beneath the diagnosis.

The wisdom

Eastern systems

Ayurveda and acupuncture — studied for the principles, not the prescriptions. Pattern recognition developed over millennia.

The intersection

Where it comes together

Each system trained a different kind of attention. Modern medicine taught measurement. Functional medicine taught root causes. Eastern systems taught pattern and context.

The lens

Food as data

15 years of food writing across 6 continents. Every meal an observation. Cuisine as a window into culture, gut diversity, and metabolic flexibility.

The application

Longevity medicine

Not a protocol. A way of thinking. Intervene before pathology. Map the terrain. Tilt the odds. Personalise relentlessly.

The philosophy

Trade-offs, not rules

The rasamalai at midnight is a metabolic event and a cultural one. A longevity framework that only sees the glucose misses most of what matters.
