However, after 10 years of academia he concluded that the ‘magic pill’ for health was a long way off and that in the meanwhile good health required effort and needed to be earned. Dr Naras returned to university, obtained a Masters degree in in nutrition and dietetics, and in 2004, opened his first nutrition consultancy The Body Doctor.

He became very involved in weight management, chronic disease and gastro-intestinal health. Dr Naras developed a keen interest in sports performance and managing pregnancies. He observed that stress, sleep, fitness and state of mind have significant impact on how people eat and how all these factors intertwine and affect one’s health.

​

Dr Naras Lapsys also identified that many people suffer food addiction and that like all addictions, it can be very challenging to manage or overcome. As his career developed he became very interested in longevity and the profound role that nutrition and lifestyle can play on disease prevention, healthy aging and lifespan.
