Simon Hill, a physiotherapist and nutrition scientist, is dedicated to simplifying health and nutrition information. He began his career interested in the physiology and anatomy related to optimal athletic performance. Then, encouraged by his Dad’s heart attack, he turned his attention to nutrition’s role in preventing disease and optimising health. Concerned about misleading wellness industry trends, he completed a Master of Science in Human Nutrition at Deakin University.
Today, Simon hosts a podcast featuring experts translating research into practical advice. He authored “The Proof is in the Plants,” advocating for a plant-rich diet based on current nutrition research.
On it’s debut week The Proof is in the Plants was the #1 non-fiction book in Australia. He continues to deepen his understanding of human health by being actively involved in research investigating the links between nutrition and mental health.
His podcast, The Proof, a space where he sits down with domain-specific experts, has surpassed 40 million listens, exploring various lifestyle factors impacting well-being. Simon now conducts immersive longevity experiences, aiming to empower people to live better for longer.
On theme with one of the important pillars of the book—planetary health—100% of the proceeds Simon receives will be donated to HalfCut, a not-for-profit organisation that is protecting the Daintree Rainforest from deforestation and rewilding parts of the world that have already experienced deforestation.
For every book sold, we will save 2 sqm of rainforest. This means together, as a community, through The Proof is in the Plants, we will help defend the natural world.
