Jane Tobias is the nutritionist for The Hour Summer Diet. She introduces herself here.

Hi I’m Jane Tobias,
 
I have always had a passion for food and learned to cook and bake at my mother’s knee. After having my children I returned to university to study the science of food, and carried on to teach nutrition and health topics at the University of the West of Scotland, where I have been teaching for the last 10 years. I continue to study and research nutrition, and gained my Masters degree in 2002. I qualified as a Nutritional Therapist in 2005 and hold weekly nutrition clinics in central Glasgow, helping many clients achieve their optimum health through good nutrition.

I feel strongly that the power of food can act as medicine and that poor diet and lifestyle choices can adversely affected our health. Having recently returned from a one week detox retreat in Spain I can speak from personal experience!  I keep my body fit with regular personal training sessions and yoga.

I am committed to supporting and educating everyone about healthy diet and lifestyle and have many simple but effective ideas for improving your health through good nutrition.

I am so excited about working with The Hour on STV with The Hour Summer Diet and encourage you all to join in together, even small changes to your diet can help you gain big health benefits for now and the future.

Let’s do this together!
