Meet our experts Tonia and Jessie
Fitness proJessie Pavelka and nutrition guru Tonia Buxton have joined forces for GMB's summer sugar-free plan - Sun, Sea and Sugar Free! Find out more about our experts here...
Tonia Buxton is a presenter, writer, gourmet cook and nutritionist which she balances with being a wife and mum to four children!
Tonia is passionate about Greek and Cypriot food having done her apprenticeship from a very young age in her mother's kitchen and believes Greek food is a big undiscovered secret. She has written for many years about healthy eating and is a fantastic advertisement for the benefits of a Mediterranean diet - one that is low in sugar, and so her Sun, Sea and Sugar Free plan is based on this.
Ten years ago she decided to drastically reduce the sugar in her own diet and since then, says she feels younger, healthier and fitter. She says she also looks younger too... It is difficult to believe she is 47!
Tonia has just published her third book Eat Greek For A Week which promises to make you feel fitter and healthier in just a week.
