This week's episode is one of the hardest, most honest conversations I've had on the podcast.
My guest Vanessa's daughter Millie was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour at 10 years old. The surgery saved her life but it damaged her hypothalamus, and she lost the ability to ever feel full.
Within weeks she went from an emaciated 17kg to obese. Vanessa ended up putting locks on the kitchen cupboards, just to keep her daughter safe from herself.
Every piece of standard nutrition advice they were given made things worse. What actually turned it around went against everything Vanessa, a qualified clinical nutritionist had ever been taught.
Ten years on, Millie is 20, manages her own nutrition day to day, and Vanessa now works as a pro-metabolic nutritionist herself.
