Maintaining a healthy weight, beating cravings and having energy that lasts all day doesn't need to be complicated, says clinical nutritionist Dominique Ludwig. She's back on the show to explain why eating in the right proportions transforms everything from weight management and blood sugar to gut health and mood – and why her simple balanced plate model does the hard work for you.

- Why calorie counting can work against you (and what to focus on instead)
- How to manage food noise and cravings
- The balanced plate: protein, fibre and healthy fats in the right ratios
- The go-to foods you'll always find in Dominique's kitchen
- Why breakfast really is the most important meal of the day (and how to nail yours)
- How to hack hunger hormones with food
- The difference between soluble and insoluble fibre – and which one actually feeds your gut microbes
