Steve Bennett The current decline in our nation’s health makes me frustrated, furious and fired up to create change! I am driven by a feeling of duty, to pass on the knowledge I have gained in turning my own health around (I was obese for over 25 years) to others. To do this, I spend most of my working days on several different approaches to health education. I am passionate about preventing and reversing, diabetes type 2, obesity and metabolic syndrome across the UK. Therefore, I spend my working days on several different approaches. I created an organisation called Health Results to help people explore, measure, and improve their metabolic health and I am a benefactor to two charities the Public Health Collaboration (PHC) and the Colourful Life Foundation. I am a dad to 7 wonderful children, 2 adorable grandchildren and husband to a great wife. My day job after the morning school run is following my passion to educate our country about metabolic health and I also executively chair several companies that I previously founded. I love adventures too, and have trekked to the North Pole, sailed across the Atlantic, undertook some mammoth Strive Challenges and more recently, along with several members of the PHC cycled 500 miles in five days with Zero calories! See “Zero five 500” on YouTube. * I have wrote several health books, Primal Cure, Britain is Sick, Primal Gourmet and more recently Fat & Furious. * In 2020 I founded Health Results to help the nation get healthier. www.healthresults.com *I am a patron and main benefactor to the charity PHC (Public Health Collaboration), which aims to put prevention at the heart of the nation’s healthcare system.
