Passion for Exercise & Sports
'The Insulin Factor' is Antony's first book on a subject that he has studied
for eight years, and witnessed in hundreds of patients. Insulin Resistance
affects up to 80% of the whole population, with about a quarter of the
population having a more full-blown type of Insulin Resistance which is a major
cause of obesity and heart disease and then diabetes. For the first time ever
in a book, all of the significant contributory factors that cause insulin
resistance are brought together in a model of how to reverse insulin
resistance.
With an approaching tidal wave of obesity, diabetes and heart
disease in the world (not just the civilised countries!), it is hoped that this
book will help in some small way to help individuals and their families to
choose the best food and exercise to minimise their risk of these killer
diseases.
Practitioner
Antony has been qualified as a Nutritionist since 1992. He completed a third
year at The Institute for Optimum Nutrition in 1994, receiving the award for
top student in each of the three years of study. He has seen patients at a
number of different centres in London since he qualified including The Richer
Health Clinic in Finchley, The Life Centre in Kensington, The Selfridges Health
Spa, The Institute for Optimum Nutrition Clinic before establishing his own
clinic The Nutrition Clinic in 1996 which has been located at No. 1 Harley
Street for over 3 years.
Antony has had the privilege of meeting over 9,000 patients in the
past decade. As a consequence, he has been faced with a wide variety of ill
health conditions. The most common conditions include blood glucose imbalances
and insulin resistance, stress related conditions, digestive disorders, mood
disorders and also musculo-skeletal conditions in which pain is the primary
complaint.
Lecturer & Tutor
He has also been teaching since that time, and has given lectures
covering a wide range of topics at a number of nutrition colleges and other
universities including the following: The Institute for Optimum Nutrition
(ION), The Raworth College, The Centre for Nutritional Education (CNE), The
College of Naturopathic Medicine (CNM), The University of Westminster, The
University of Hertfordshire. Antony has also presented workshops and lectures
to the public and other groups at health centres, gyms, town halls and even the
QEII. For a number of years in the 1990s, Antony was a tutor to students at
ION. In more recent years, Antony has devoted more time to post-graduate
education, gaining accreditation for such by The Complementary Medicine
Association (CMA) and the British Association of Nutritional Therapists (BANT),
of which he is a member.
Writer
For over a decade, Antony has either written features for, contributed to, or
been the focus of articles in many different magazines including: Elle, Vogue,
Cosmopolitan, The Financial Times, The Times, The Independent on Sunday,
Hello, Top Sante, Optimum Nutrition Magazine, Here's Health, and more besides.
Antony has previously helped other authors of nutritional books including 'The
Diet Cure' by Julia Ross (Penguin) which he Anglicised for the publisher. He
can commend this book to readers as well as her more recent work called 'The
Mood Cure'.
Post-Graduate Education
Each year Antony attends at least 60 hours of accredited post-graduate
education both in the UK and the US (which includes those lectures that he
presents himself, for which many additional hours were committed in their
preparation).
Sports & Exercise
Antony has long been interested in health, with a lifetime interest and
participation in sports and exercise. He captained the junior Essex hockey
team, and played for the junior East of England side in 1981. He was also in a
junior Great Britain ski team in 1980. He represented his school in the first
teams for five sports: Rugby, Hockey, Cricket, Squash and Tennis. Whilst
studying for his Sports Science degree, at what is now part of Brunel
University, he represented his college hockey team that won The British
Colleges Cup in 1987. He later represented the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst
in hockey, and played cricket for The Royal Anglian Regiment. He has
participated in various athletic competitions including a triathlon in which he
came 2nd in 1989. He won the Fitness Challenge at Westside Gym in 1998.
He has maintained his fitness for virtually all of his life, and
still engages most days in one or more of these types of exercise:
cardiovascular exercise, stretching and strength training. However, he also
paces himself more now than he did before in order not to exhaust his adrenals!
