The Doctors Kitchen | How To Use Food As Medicine: Understanding The Nutrition Science Behind Living Longer @doctors_kitchen | Uploaded June 2023 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Today I’m chatting with the directors of the non-profit Culinary Medicine UK who have been with me from the very start when I had the aspiration to bring this method of teaching to the UK.
We talk about the origins of CM and how it’s changed
What the evolution of CM has been and how we survived the pandemic
Where CM is currently taught as well as the aspirations of where we want to take it
If you’ve never heard of Culinary Medicine before, it’s a method of teaching health and social care professionals, nutrition science with hands on cooking and culinary skills.
Essentially we deliver evidence based, practical and appropriate teaching to healthcare professionals on how to adapt nutrition advice for individuals with varying medical conditions, cultures, skills, resources and personal preferences. Something that is not taught well, or at all, in universities today.
Vince is a culinary lecturer at UK’s number one Hospitality School, Westminster Kingsway
College (WKC). With over 25 years of experience within the hospitality industry and is an
executive committee member of Master Chef’s of Great Britain.
Elaine is an experienced nutrition educator and registered dietician, who leads on the development of CMUK nutrition modules. She is a researcher working towards a PhD, and writer with an interest in improving access to healthy food for people facing nutrition insecurity, and has postgraduate qualifications in clinical education, diabetes, research, critical appraisal, behaviour change and communication.
Dr Sumi Baruah is the CEO of CMUK and is currently a portfolio GP, who holds diplomas in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Sexual Health and a Postgraduate Certificate in Primary Care Education as well as being a certified health coach.
