Does your child walk to school?

Walking helps build lifelong healthy habits, improves wellbeing, and strengthens communities. This #WalkToSchoolWeek & #NationalWalkingMonth, let’s make walking safer, easier, and more accessible for every family.

Walking outdoors and improved mood. Add this to a better diet and stand back !!
I have often noticed how a 20 minute walk can radically change how I feel I wonder why ??

Happy walking.

Silence from party leaders on the latest report from The Health Foundation.

UK #healthspan is falling. People are living longer, but spending more years unhealthy.

That means:
More NHS pressure
Lower productivity
More pressure on families
Higher long-term economic cost

Most people optimize their diet and exercise but completely overlook one of the most powerful metabolic inputs: light.

As I recently shared in the @nypost, early morning sunlight is a biological signal that sets your system for the day.

Within the first hour of waking, light exposure helps:
• regulate your circadian rhythm
• stabilize blood sugar
• reduce cravings
• improve energy and sleep later that night

The prescription is simple:
Step outside within the first hour of waking. Do it consistently.
Small, repeated signals create powerful biological shifts over time.

One of the most overlooked tools for lowering blood sugar isn’t found in a bottle.
It’s a walk.

After you eat, your glucose rises.
But your muscles are designed to respond — pulling glucose out of the bloodstream and using it for energy.
This is how you improve insulin sensitivity in real time.

The data is clear:
A short walk after meals (even just 10–15 minutes) can significantly blunt glucose spikes.
No prescription. No supplement. Just physiology.

And here’s what most people miss:
Your muscles are your largest glucose reservoir.
The more muscle you build — and the more consistently you use it — the more resilient your metabolism becomes.

Movement is metabolic medicine.
Start with 10 minutes after your next meal.

I’ve started a petition to get the UK dietary guidelines changed to promote good metabolic health. I would really appreciate if you could sign and share it to a wider audience.
