Welcome to Not Another Nutrition Podcast! This is not just another nutrition and fitness podcast; I will be discussing a wide variety of topics including business, careers, parenting and self-improvement, alongside plenty of discussion on a range of nutrition topics! I try to communicate in such a way that is easy for anyone to understand, and with more of a 'coffee shop chat' vibe than a lecture so don't expect it to be academic fact after fact!! You can also reach out to me on social media via @MartinNutrition and I keep most of my important links here: www.Martin-MacDonald.com/links
