Ella Woodward
The beautiful Ella started her blog, Deliciously Ella, after being diagnosed with a rare illness, Postural Tachycardia Syndrome, which left her with unbearable stomach issues and chronic pain. After traditional medicines failed to help, Ella began researching natural, holistic healing approaches and transformed her eating habits, with brilliant results. Her diet is plant-based, and she has given up all meat, dairy, sugar, gluten, processed foods, chemicals and additives. Sounds pretty drastic, but Ella's recipes prove that super healthy food can be anything but dull. Her first cookbook, Deliciously Ella (Yellow Kite, £20), is out in January.
Natasha Corrett
Gourmet vegetarian chef Natasha counts Victoria Beckham among the fans of her healthy eating cookbooks. Her latest, Honestly Healthy for Life: Healthy Alternatives for Everyday Eating (Jacqui Small, £25), was released earlier this year and promotes the virtues of her alkaline lifestyle, with guidelines on how to restore a healthy balance to your body. Natasha (who is the daughter of interior designer Kelly Hoppen) developed her eating approach after visiting an Ayurvedic acupuncturist for a back injury and discovering that her body was seriously acidic. After changing her diet by cutting out everything from white flour to fizzy drinks, Natasha lost two stone and co-launched Honestly Healthy, preparing home-cooked alkaline meals for celebrities including Robbie Williams.

London-based teen Izy launched her gorgeous food blog, Top With Cinnamon, when she was still at school. She presents her wholesome creations with photographic flair and has now released her first cookbook, Top With Cinnamon: Stylish, Sweet and Savoury Recipes (Hardie Grant, £20), out now.
