“Add, not restrict” is just one of the quips nutritionist Lee Zhi Ling is known for. With nearly 200k followers on Instagram, Lee is loved for her quick and easy grocery and cooking tips and her honest and approachable advice when it comes to eating healthy, especially in Asia.
Her videos inspired followers to cook more often, explore new foods, and adopt healthier habits in their daily lives. She suggests simple practices like bringing vegetables to the office to enhance takeaway meals, a tip that can help regulate blood sugar. In one video, she highlights the versatility of whole grains by introducing “oat fried rice,” a creative stir-fry made with rolled oats, which she prepares alongside her partner, chef Aaron Khor of the modern Chinese restaurant Fifty Tales.
