The gut health advocate starts the day with a downward dog, eats plenty of fibre, loves a second breakfast-and avoids weekday TV

I get up at 6.45am every day apart from Sunday, when I don't set an alarm. I use my Apple watch to wake me up. It has a nice, gentle vibration and as it's on my wrist, my kids can't nick it. Getting up at the same time every day helps me to get the best sleep.

I often try to copy our Border Collie, who always does a downward dog first thing in the morning. If I'm not rushing, I'll do that then wake the kids up for school.

I love breakfast. I'm a creature of habit in general and I like to reduce the number of decisions that need to be made, especially since starting my own business, which has made daily life all about decisions, decisions, decisions. So with breakfast, I start by having a glass of water and a black coffee, then I'll have Greek yoghurt mixed with our New Road 30 high-fibre, prebiotic blend and some kind of fresh fruit and nuts.

I wash my face, put some cream on and then do the school drop-off, listening to the Today programme.
