George Hamlyn-Williams is Principal Dietitian from The Hospital Group in the UK
Dispenses nutritional advice from around the world to help patients lose weight
Explained that you should do like the Japanese and eat more fish per day
But warned against eating lots of Chinese food, as meals usually heavy in salt
A nutrition expert has revealed the rules to weight loss from around the world -including eating seven pieces of fruit and veg and fish three-times-a-day.
George Hamlyn-Williams, based in Nottingham, is the principal dietitian from The Hospital Group and following research that puts the UK’s obesity rate ten times higher than countries such as China, he turned to several countries’ nutritional guidelines to see what they were doing differently.
He looked into diet recommendations from countries including Japan, Italy and Norway and pointed out which recommendations should be followed and which should be avoided.
He pointed out, for instance, that Japan’s recommendation to add more fish to the diet, up to three portions a day, was sound nutritional advice, but said that Italy’s recommendation to eat seven biscuits a week was ‘ambiguous.’
He revealed exclusively to Femail his findings and ten of his dos and don’ts when it comes to weight loss and nutrition from around the world.
