Honest plates, no hype

FuelType guides are based on the public NHS Eatwell Guide principles and the widely used hand-portion method: your palm, fist, cupped hand and thumb. No weighing, no hype and no promised results, just a sensible starting point you can adapt to you.

Who's behind it

FuelType was started by Gabriel Busst, a former outdoor activity instructor in the UK. Years of feeding hungry groups on long active days showed that most people don't want to weigh food; they just want a simple way to fill a plate well. Gabriel is not a dietitian or nutritionist, which is exactly why the guides stick to established public guidance.
