Mimi Spencer (Author)
Mimi Spencer is best known for co-authoring The Fast Diet with Michael Mosley, which introduced the concept of 5:2 intermittent fasting to the world.
During a 30-year career in journalism, she wrote about 'all the good things in life' - fashion, beauty, food and travel - as a features writer and columnist for numerous national newspapers and magazines including The Times, the Observer, Mail on Sunday and the Evening Standard. She has written five cookbooks, including The Midlife Kitchen, focused on health and well-being as we age.
A lifelong devotee of yoga, Mimi trained as a yoga teacher in 2021, and she now runs regular retreats near her home in Sussex (therestisyoga.co.uk). When she's not on a yoga mat, Mimi can be found in her studio making pots, which she shows at the Two Kats and a Cow gallery in Brighton.

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.
