    SHOULD YOU CUT CARBS TO LOSE WEIGHT?

    tinyurl.com/kickstarter26 Think carbs are making you fat? Think you're intolerant to bread and pasta? Think cutting carbs is the answer? You're probably wrong on all three. I'm Paul Evans, registered nutritionist (MSc, RNutr), and in this episode of No Forking Nonsense I'm breaking down the biggest carb myths in the diet industry. In this episode: Why that initial weight loss on low-carb diets isn't fat (it's water and glycogen)What actually happens to your body when you cut carbs long term (spoiler: it's not good)The real reason carbs don't make you fat (portion sizes and food combinations do)Why you feel bloated after pasta (and why it's not a wheat intolerance)The water retention problem nobody talks about (and how to fix it)Why 93% of people who think they're gluten intolerant aren'tThe portion size problem: why restaurant pasta servings are 3x what you should eatHow to actually eat carbs properly without bloating or gaining weightI reference the DIETFITS trial showing low-carb and low-fat diets produce identical weight loss, and a 2018 study proving most "gluten sensitivity" is actually portion size and placebo effect. This isn't anti-keto propaganda. This is evidence-based information about how your body actually works with carbohydrates - and why cutting them out completely is unnecessary for 99% of people. If you've been scared of bread, pasta, or rice - this episode will change how you think about carbs forever. For five days of completely free coaching head to tinyurl.com/kickstarter26

    THE REGISTERED NUTRITIONIST’S EVIDENCE-BASED GUIDE TO SUPPLEMENTS

    If you’d like five days of completely free coaching from me, a registered and leading UK nutritionist, head to: tinyurl.com/kickstarter26 and join the Kickstarter. Real structure. Real accountability.  Everyone is taking something. Testosterone boosters. Fat burners.  Pre-workouts that read like a chemistry exam. But what actually works? In this episode of No Forking Nonsense, I break down supplements through the lens of real human research, not marketing copy. We cover: The supplements with strong evidence and correct dosagesThe ones with limited or context-specific benefitThe ones that are almost entirely hypeThe gap between what studies actually show and what the industry sellsWe talk creatine, caffeine, vitamin D, omega-3s, protein powders, beta-alanine, BCAAs, testosterone boosters, fat burners and nootropic blends - including the dosages used in research and why most products on the shelf don’t match them. This is not anti-supplement. It’s anti-nonsense. If you’re spending money on capsules and want to know whether they’re actually doing anything - this episode is for you. Evidence over hype. Always.

    NUTRITION FOR BRAINPOWER.

    thenutritionistuk.com/weekend Everyone wants better focus, sharper memory and more mental energy. Most people think they need a supplement stack, mushroom coffee or some Silicon Valley biohack. They don’t. In this episode of No Forking Nonsense, I break down what the research actually says about nutrition for brain power. We cover glucose stability, protein and neurotransmitters, omega 3 fats, iron, B vitamins, hydration and the Mediterranean dietary pattern. No hype. No influencer nonsense. Just the foods and eating structure that genuinely support cognitive performance. If you feel foggy, flat or reliant on caffeine to function, this one’s for you.

    WHAT A REGISTERED NUTRITIONIST BUYS IN A SUPERMARKET

    Supermarkets aren’t neutral. They’re engineered to make you overbuy, under-eat protein, snack mindlessly and walk out thinking you’ve “been good”… right up until 4pm hits and you’re hunting for sugar. In this episode, I break down UK supermarket hacks most people never think of – not the obvious “buy frozen veg” stuff, but the smart, slightly sneaky ways to make supermarkets work for you. We cover: Where the best protein foods actually live (hint: it’s not the protein aisle)How frozen foods reduce decision fatigue and stop last-minute takeawaysThe simple way to eat chocolate and snacks without triggering a bingeHow to use meal deals properly instead of them using youSmall swaps that improve energy, appetite control and consistency without dietingThis is about designing your food environment so you don’t need willpower to get results. If weekends are where things usually unravel, I’ve also put together a free Weekend Survival Guide to help you stay on track without missing out. 👉 Download it here: https://thenutritionistuk.com/weekend If this episode helped, share it with someone who “eats well” but still feels stuck.

    HOW TO GO OUT AT THE WEEKENDS.

    >> thenutritionistuk.com/weekend Most people don’t fail their fat loss goals during the week. They fail them quietly, unintentionally, and consistently… at the weekend. In this episode of No Forking Nonsense, I break down why weekends undo progress for so many people, even when Monday to Friday feels “on point”. We talk about the real maths of fat loss, how one or two social meals can wipe out a weekly deficit, and why this isn’t a willpower problem, it’s a strategy gap. I walk you through: Why fat loss is a weekly equation, not a daily oneThe most common weekend traps that stall progressHow alcohol, late meals and poor structure compound without you noticingSimple rules that let you enjoy your weekends without starting again every MondayWhat to do after you overeat so one meal doesn’t turn into a lost weekThis isn’t about restriction, tracking everything, or avoiding social plans. It’s about containment, planning, and making weekends work with your goals, not against them. If weekends feel like your weak spot, this episode will give you clarity and relief. And if you want the exact framework I use with clients, you can download my free Weekend Survival Guide via the link above.
