If you're into science-backed supplements, wellness and body confidence you've probably heard of Wild Nutrition.
The brand has built a loyal community of +300,000 women looking for smart, nourishing support through all stages of life, from postnatal recovery to perimenopause and beyond.
Now, they're bringing their mission to life with the brand's very first London pop-up happening on July 30 and 31 in Notting Hill.
And it's shaping up to be a feel-good two-day event packed with movement classes, expert talks, free wellness sessions, and the exclusive launch of a groundbreaking new supplement.
WHEN? Wednesday 30th July 2025 – 10am – 8:30pm, and Thursday 31st July 2025 – 9:15am – 6pm
WHERE? Wild By Nature Pop-Up Store (230 Portobello Road, London, W11 1LJ)
One of the major highlights of the pop-up is the launch of Wild Nutrition's new Weight Management Support supplement, a UK-first botanical formula designed to support metabolism, hormonal balance and energy, while still nourishing the body.
Unlike quick-fix injections like Ozempic (which are now used by an estimated 2 million women in the UK and come with a host of side-effects), this science-backed supplement offers a more holistic and sustainable approach.
It features Metabolaid®, a clinically proven botanical complex, and is designed for women wanting to support long-term health without compromising their body's needs.
To give you a taste of what's on offer at the pop-up event, on Wednesday July 30 from 5:30pm–8:30pm, Wild Nutrition is hosting a powerful and honest conversation about all sides of weight management, from style and confidence to movement, sex, and nutrition.
The panel, titled Redefining: Body, Balance and Breakthroughs, will be hosted by writer and podcaster Billie Bhatia, and features an inspiring line-up of voices.
Plus, as a bonus, the first 20 people to sign up for the panel will receive a goody bag worth £100, including an early drop of the brand-new Weight Management Support supplement, before it officially goes on sale in August.
On Thursday July 31, attendees can expect a full programme of free sessions including a 9:30-10:30am movement session with yoga and breathwork coach Cat Meffan or a 2:00-3:00pm Face yoga session with Luminous Face Yoga. More Trending

VIEW Reaction to new Novo Nordisk CEO, profit warning

July 29 (Reuters) - Novo Nordisk ( opens new tab on Tuesday appointed insider Mike Doustdar as its new chief executive after the Danish obesity drug maker cut its full year outlook for the second time in 2025, sending its shares tumbling. Here are some reactions from market analysts and investors: MARKUS MANNS, A PORTFOLIO MANAGER AT MUTUAL FUNDS FIRM UNION INVESTMENT AND A SHAREHOLDER IN THE COMPANY: "While most people had expected Novo to just trim the top end of the guidance, the magnitude of the guidance cut is a shocker. Novo's problems are much deeper than just compunded Wegovy in the U.S. and extend to the international Wegovy franchise and even to Ozempic in diabetes. Novo has underestimated the self pay market in obesity and just recently started to focus on this important patient segment." JEFFERIES ANALYST BENJAMIN JACKSON ON NEW CEO: "We are surprised by the appointment of Mike Doustdar as CEO, with feedback suggesting an external candidate may have been preferred." ANALYSTS ON THE PROFIT WARNING: "Lowered guidance (is) a reflection of growth expectations in H2'25 for both Wegovy and Ozempic." CITI ANALYSTS ON THE PROFIT WARNING: "We caution against over-reading into Novo's assessment, given tirzepatide's script strength pre-July 1st has been robust and Lilly may have had a more conservative outlook on expectations when giving its own 2025 guidance. Thus, we remain buyers on weakness." ANGELO MEDA, PORTFOLIO MANAGER AND HEAD OF EQUITIES AT BANOR SIM IN MILAN: "The biggest concern is the illegal channel siphoning away market share—something that's hard to quantify. Rebuilding trust will take time."

Wegovy maker Novo Nordisk's shares plunge as it cuts sales forecast

The obesity drugmaker Novo Nordisk has cut its full-year sales and operating profit forecasts for the second time this year, sending its shares down by more than a fifth on Tuesday. The maker of the weight-loss drug Wegovy is struggling to convince investors it can remain competitive in the obesity drug boom against US rival Eli Lilly. 'The lowered sales outlook for 2025 is driven by lower growth expectations for the second half of 2025,' the company said in a statement. 'This is related to lower growth expectations for Wegovy in the US obesity market, lower growth expectations for Ozempic in the US GLP-1 diabetes market, as well as lower-than-expected penetration for Wegovy in select IO [international operations] markets,' it said. Novo now expects 2025 sales growth of 8%-14% in local currencies, down from its previous 13%-21% forecast range. It also lowered its operating profit growth estimate to 10%-16%, from 16-24% previously. Sales rose 18% year on year in the second quarter and the first half of the year, Novo said. Its operating profit increased by 40% in the April-June quarter and by 29% in the first half, the company added. Shares were down more than 21% at 355.30 Danish kroner (£41.21). Booming sales of Wegovy catapulted Novo to become Europe's most valuable listed company in 2024, peaking at about €615bn (£532bn), but the value has since fallen by more than half. Novo Nordisk also named Maziar Mike Doustdar as its new chief executive on Tuesday, relying on an experienced company insider to revive sales and its share price. The appointment comes after the abrupt removal in May of CEO Lars Fruergaard Jørgensen by Novo and the Novo Nordisk Foundation – the Danish company's controlling shareholder. Doustdar, who joined Novo in 1992, now serves as vice-president for international operations, a role he took after leading the company's businesses first in the Middle East and then in Southeast Asia, Novo said.

Novo launched its weight-loss drug Wegovy nearly two-and-a-half years before Eli Lilly's Zepbound. However, Zepbound prescriptions surpassed those of Wegovy this year by more than 100,000 a week. The appointment comes at a challenging time for the global pharmaceutical industry as Donald Trump threatens to impose tariffs on imports and calls on drugmakers to lower their US prescription prices.

Richard Bacon reveals he's now reliant on heartburn tablets and vitamin injections to cope with the fallout from his heavy drinking - and quit AA because it's 'boring'

Richard Bacon has opened up about his long-running struggle with alcohol addiction - admitting he's sleep-deprived and reliant on heartburn tablets and vitamin injections to cope with the fallout from heavy drinking. Richard was famously just 18 months into his dream job at Blue Peter when he was fired at the age of 22 after admitting he took cocaine in a London nightclub in 1997. He has since been open about his continuing addiction struggles, recently opening up in a candid podcast chat. The presenter, now 49, said that he struggles to take accountability after a doctor told him his addiction is a disease inherited from his alcoholic mother. 'I went to see an alcohol doctor not long ago,' he said in the chat. 'I'm not out of control or anything, but I do think I should drink less. It affects your sleep and I get bored of being tired. 'I don't get enough sleep because I drink too much. I enjoy drinking.' Speaking on The Perfect Day podcast with Jessica Knappett, he added: 'You know you drink too much when you have a lot of Rennie. You know you're middle aged and you drink too much and you're popping those things.' The father-of-two also confessed to a regular habit of having vitamin B12 injections to cope with the after-effects of drinking too much. 'A vitamin B12 injection in your bum is famously good for hangovers. It brings you back to life,' he said. 'At the end of last year and for the first few months of this year, I had one a week. I've got this doctor - he's a bit like Michael Jackson's doctor - he just gives me anything I ask for.' 'At one point I had eight prescriptions and there wasn't really much wrong with me. He's just like, 'you're a bit deficient in this, bit deficient in that. Bit of this, bit of that.' A lot of it's sort of vitamin based, but weirdly prescription based. But it did work… He's terrific.' Richard was sacked from children's TV programme Blue Peter in 1998 after admitting to taking cocaine. To this day he is the only presenter in the history of the show to have been sacked. 'I got a Blue Peter job at 21 and then lost it at 22 and it was a big scandal at the time,' Richard reflected. 'I suppose there's something about getting caught for taking drugs where you can just come back, can't you? It's not one of the worst ones. 'There are far worse ones that make you look like a malicious person. If you beat someone up, do something aggressively sexual, say something racist... those reveal something about you that people don't like. I think the desire to get drunk and get high is something people generally can get over.' Now a successful creator of TV formats and the man behind shows like This Is My House and I Literally Just Told You, Richard admits his lifestyle can still get in the way. 'What I find annoying about myself is if I have a night of not drinking, I'll go into the office - I work on ideas... and I'll just have so much energy, and I'll be better at it.' Despite still drinking regularly, he added he ditched Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) because he found the meetings 'boring'. 'I've gone through loads of periods of stopping, and I've done periods of AA. I admire AA. It's a strange combination of people telling the most dramatic stories you've ever heard that I find really boring. I'm not even joking.' He recalled one meeting in Chelsea with several famous faces in the room. 'This guy was telling this story - he'd come out of prison and he'd gone to prison because he'd got high and he'd stolen a car and he was chased by a police helicopter then he drove through a police barricade. And I remember just sitting there checking my watch going, 'boring!' 'Imagine someone you know telling you that story? But somehow it's just one dramatic story after another, and it became a bit numb to it.' Despite this, he praised the 'generosity' of long-term sober members who continue to attend meetings seemingly to help others. 'If I'd been sober for 15 years, I wouldn't still be going to AA, and listening to more stories,' he said. 'I think for some of them, they are fairly certain they won't drink again but they do want to help. So it's a very positive place. It just didn't work for me.' Richard, who said he was diagnosed with 'a particularly strong strain of ADHD' aged 42, recently consulted a specialist about why he drinks so much - and was told he inherited the destructive tendency. 'My mum's basically an alcoholic. My granddad died of alcoholism. He went, 'Well that's why, it's just genetics.' 'I said, some people think it's the result of childhood trauma or something you've been running away from or not dealt with. And he was like, 'Nah, it's just genetics. It's a disease.' 'So now I think I can just say to my wife: it's not my fault! It's grandad's fault. It's mum's fault.' He added: 'I drink and I enjoy it and I don't seem to get in trouble so it's fine. It's not so much that I'm worried about being dangerous. I just the calories and the sleep. That bit is annoying.' To slash calories in his drink, he said, he avoids beer and red wine and sticks to vodka - particularly in the form of a martini with a twist. 'When you go to a bar and order vodka and they go, what sort of vodka do you want? I think they all taste the same! It's so irrelevant.' The former Radio 5 Live and Capital FM host lives in north London with his wife Rebecca McFarlane and their two children, Arthur, 13, and Ivy, 11. He admits parenthood didn't quite sober him up the way people might expect. '[Rebecca] had always wanted to be a mum,' he explained. 'So it was a really wonderful thing, but I think she looks back with disappointment at me at that time because I was still going out and not pulling my weight and coming in late. 'I think those first few years, I didn't snap into what you're kind of required to do quickly enough. So there was too much of a burden on her.' He continued: 'I hadn't wanted to be a parent until I met her, and then we fell in love really intensely. And she would talk about kids a lot, and that made me think, oh, right, OK. 'I recently tried to imagine having another baby... I'm so pleased I'm out of that phase. Rebecca did the real work here, but it is definitely harder than people say. 'No one really says how hard it is. They're constantly relying on me to keep them alive. It's like, f***ing hell. When they're young - two, three, four - they're flat out annoying.'
