Who’s the author? Sophie Gastman is a Registered Nutritionist, public health advocate and content creator better known online as @sophiethenutritionist. Through her social media platforms, Sophie is known for cutting through confusing nutrition advice and challenging restrictive diet culture with practical, balanced guidance.

Alongside her online content, Sophie has worked with BBC Food and supported healthier eating initiatives for children and schools through her public health work. Her approach is rooted in helping people feel more confident and relaxed around food, without overcomplicating nutrition.

What’s it about? Find Your Healthy is a collection of 100 recipes designed to make healthy eating feel realistic, enjoyable and satisfying. Sophie combines accessible, flavour-packed cooking with myth-busting nutrition advice, helping readers feel less overwhelmed by conflicting food messages.

The book is split into four chapters – Carbs, Protein, Fats and Sugar – with each section unpacking common misconceptions around that food group before introducing recipes that show how these foods can fit into everyday life. Each recipe is designed for a busy schedule, with nourishing breakfasts, easy dinners, and satisfying sweet treats that emphasise flavour and balance.

Recipes we love: Almond Croissant Baked Oats, Chicken Panzanella with Crumpet Croutons, Salmon Hot Dogs with Pickled Cucumber, and Salted Date and Pecan Blondies

Perfect for: Anyone looking for balanced recipes and clear nutrition advice without restrictive food rules (or compromising on flavour).
