How to Eat 30 Plants a Week

By Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall

One simple target — thirty plants a week — that quietly fixed my eating.

The idea is almost too simple: aim for thirty different plants a week and your gut does better than any single "superfood" can manage. Plants here means more than veg — nuts, seeds, pulses, grains, herbs, spices, even coffee and chocolate all count. With a foreword from Tim Spector tying it to the gut-microbiome science, it became the practical backbone of my Daily30 habit. Honest note: it's a cookbook, not a diet bible — the value is the target and the recipes that make hitting it easy.
