An award-winning NHS cardiologist, Dr Malhotra has successfully motivated leading academics, the media and politicians to make sugar reduction a health priority in the UK. His academic publications can be found in the BMJ and BJSM (see links below) and he is prominent in mainstream media.

He recently published what is already a best-seller, “the Pioppi Diet: A 21 day lifestyle plan”. https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/305991/the-pioppi-diet/
