Message from fu:di founder, Tom

Hey foodies,

I'm Tom, a devoted Keto and low carb enthusiast and the proud founder of fu:di. We’re honoured to have been invited to be the sponsors of this year’s Keto Festival - not because we get to put our name on everything, but because Keto has completely changed my life and I can’t wait to meet you all in person so we can share our experiences together.

As a professional chef by trade, I thought I knew everything there was to know about health, until life took an unexpected turn. I found myself overweight (130kg!), diagnosed as pre-diabetic, and facing the prospect of a lifetime on medication—all before turning 40. That's when Keto entered my life.

Once I got my head around the new diet (eating fat to lose fat sounded a bit strange at first) I dived right in.

In just 3 months, I reversed my diabetes diagnosis. Another 3 months, and I shed 15 kgs. Within a year, another 15 kg. It's been an incredible journey, but I realized I missed the foodie in me — the joy of sharing bowls of pasta and Friday night burgers with my family. I didn’t want food that was just “good for no sugar”. I wanted food that was just damn good!

I started experimenting with everyday recipes — ketchup, bread, burger buns, jams, chutneys, chili sauces, granolas, and even mayo. Suddenly, I was living again — healthy and happy.

Teaming up with my friend and co-founder Ben, whose passion lies in statistics and metabolic health, and combining it with my obsession for flavour, we founded fu:di with a simple ambition — to improve the metabolic health of the world.

I'm so excited about the upcoming festival and can't wait to meet you all. Looking forward to exchanging stories, sharing the food hacks that have transformed my life and hearing about ones that have changed yours. Let’s help spread the word of improving your metabolic health using the KETO, low carb lifestyle.

Best,

Tom
