Sam Rice (Author)

Sam's food journey began in 2012 following the shock death of her youngest brother, Ben, from type 1 diabetes. She spent the next few years experimenting in the kitchen, trying to find healthy foods she loved to eat, and quickly learned the power of the food we eat to heal and sustain.

The Midlife Kitchen was the culmination of everything she learned during those years, and her subsequent book, The Midlife Method: How to Lose Weight and Feel Great After 40, has also helped thousands of midlifers improve their health. Her latest book, Supercharge Your Diet: Ten Easy Ways to Get Everything You Need from Your Food, was written to give people back control over their nutrition in the increasingly complex food landscape we now live in.

Sam is the nutrition expert at the Daily Telegraph, where her writing centres on making good nutrition accessible to all. She's a recent graduate of the Leiths Nutrition in Culinary Practice programme, the best training of its kind in the UK, which focuses on translating nutritional theory into practice in the kitchen. Her latest endeavour is an MSc in Clinical Nutrition at Aberdeen University.
