PHC Scotland Conference — Empowering Better Health with Real Food
We’re a UK charity dedicated to helping people improve their health and updating dietary advice for healthcare professionals.
Christmas food now appears in shops months before December. Ellen Bennett explores how this extended season shapes our eating habits, and why planning ahead can matter for people with food addiction.
Our guest speaker this month is Dr David Unwin, whose talk is entitled, "T2D and insulin resistance really matters; what are we going to do about it?". For full details and to register see - https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/2cd2913
Ultra-processed food addiction may be an under-recognised barrier to type 2 diabetes management. Screening, non-shaming conversations, personalised food boundaries, medication review and peer support may all have a role.
Start with Dr David Unwin’s practical resources, then follow the evidence and see how PHC members keep these tools free for patients, clinicians, and families.
