Joanne McCormack is a UK family doctor (qualified 1986) who worked as a safeguarding children’s doctor for several years as well as a family GP. Her website, www.fatismyfriend.co.uk, helps people and their families change their lifestyles, particularly if they have diabetes, or are at risk of developing it. She uses low-carbohydrate, ketogenic, intermittent fasting, and time-restricted ways of eating and living. She does not use low-calorie diets, and she advises against low-fat eating because of the risk of missing out on the fat-soluble vitamins and essential fats. She has followed a low-carbohydrate diet herself since 2014.
