Yep! She seems like a hypocrite.I used to peek at her IG every now and then, baked oatmeal recipe is good, but she had impeccable timing for jumping away from the 'clean eating' label when she used to do it herself.
I need to read up on the angry chef. Is DE going to raise her baby vegan, I wonder. People I know still seem to love her but I can't stand her anymore. I remember she posted about something health-related, I can't remember what... people questioned her on it and she came across as a pompous twit in her replies.She distances herself from “clean” eating now it’s been proven to fuck with women’s mental health, but was one of the main ringleaders. I feel sorry for her unborn kid who will no doubt be an instamama prop. Nauseating. The angry chef blog was a BRILLIANT eye opener into all the pseudoscience and BULLSHIT ella and her ilk post. https://angry-chef.com/
Yes, I remember rolling my eyes so hard when she mentioned she cured her illness through her vegan diet. I hate people that peddle that bullshitShe's full of shit.
Pretending she accidentally found fame through a blog when it was carefully (and expensively) orchestrated.
The disease she claims to have cured herself from by eating dates and cashews is totally unprovable according to a lecturer I know that works in the area.
She helped popularise lots of recipes that existed a long time before her and take the credit for them. Money attracts money and it's all about who you know.
I (against my will) went to one of her delis ages ago that's behind Selfridge's and the food was basic but very overpriced. Didn't have a cake as they were all uncovered and fly's were buzzing on top of them - the rude staff didn't care though.
She's married to Tessa Jowells investment banker son. I don't even think she cares much about the food, it's just a niche to use and make money.
The same way Kendall Jenner is a model. No real talent but has a famous name or family.Why do all the successful insta bloggers seem to come from glamorous or well connected backgrounds.
Their “brand” (or Instagram grid) just means they can sell ready meals or snack at triple the price of their counterparts.
It may be unprovable but I also have POTS and you will find many people use diet to manage their symptoms with very positive results.She's full of shit.

Oh, totally. But she isn't a medical expert so I don't think she should talk about stuff like this.It may be unprovable but I also have POTS and you will find many people use diet to manage their symptoms with very positive results.
I’m not saying by any means that it cures it though!
Oh definitely diet can help, it can with so many illnesses but for hers the proven things are apparently drinking more water, smaller meals, less carbs, no caffeine / alcohol etc and not really a just a plant based diet.It may be unprovable but I also have POTS and you will find many people use diet to manage their symptoms with very positive results.

Yeah this is my issue too (although had no idea about Ella's connections until now as I've never followed her that closely). Gracefit is the same. Obviously no ones saying they don't work hard or didn't put in any effort to succeed, but no way would they have managed without the money and connections behind them and I hate that they don't recognise that privilege.The big problem I've got against people like her is they don't own the nepotism and instead fake this narrative to make them seem approachable and sell the lie that anyone can make it. It's always been the same - the 0.1% of the population in certain families hold most of the power. Don't try to pretend you're in your situation through work. I think the plz like (bbc3 show) kale character with powerful family connections was loosely based on her.
She talks so much shite.Just a quick look at a random post from when she started her blog
the first one I clicked on https://web.archive.org/web/20120621184543/http://deliciouslyella.com/
She's got some nerve claiming she didn't mention eating clean or fake science. Her homemade almond milk does not have as much calcium as dairy milk and doesn't contain vitamin D. Shop bought stuff thats had added vitamins will though.
"So light, clean and fresh."
"The blackberries, blueberries, strawberries and raspberries combine so perfectly to create the most wonderful balance of juicy flavours. Juicing also gives you the most intense intake of raw vitamins, minerals, enzymes and antioxidants, all of which help to cleanse and restore the body. Try starting your day with one, it’ll make you glow inside and out."
"Raw homemade juices are also infinitely better than any store brought ones since the nutrient levels fall dramatically about twenty minutes after they’re made and the biophotons, the light rays of energy plants get from the sun, are also lost in all commercial juice "
"I love almond milk. It’s so beautifully smooth and creamy, with a wonderfully rich flavour. It tastes perfect on its own, with granola or smoothies for breakfast, and as a milk substitute in every recipe. It’s also unbelievably good for you. It contains just as much calcium as normal milk, but unlike cows milk, which we are really not designed to digest, it really nurtures your body. Did you know that seven out of ten people don’t have the enzyme to digest dairy properly? An intolerance like this can explain a whole number of issues, not only digestive but acne, eczema, headaches and lethargy amongst others. Almond milk on the other hand, is higher in vitamins, especially vitamin A, D and the beautifying vitamin E which does wonders for your hair, skin and nails. Even better, it has no saturated fat or simple sugars, it’s been shown to lower cholesterol and has many few calories than both skimmed milk and soy milk. "
"My other guideline is to always eat pure, clean, unprocessed, unrefined and plant-based foods. This is really important as this is what enables you to live by my first philosophy – if you only eat food that your body needs and loves then your digestive system works a million times faster and more efficiently, allowing you to easily process and breakdown everything that you put into your body."
