On a sunny spring afternoon, we spoke to F\u00e1bio Belo, a certified nutrition coach and blogger influencer from the beautiful Alentejo village of Alpalh\u00e3o, located in the municipality of Nisa. F\u00e1bio, who is only 27, is already a reference in his field and has many followers who are looking to his work to find solutions to their goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>: We've already realised that you're passionate about food, where does this passion come from?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>: I've always been passionate about food. I like to eat, I love to cook and test\/create recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>: From passion to nutrition. What steps did you take to get here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>: I have a degree in journalism and communications. I worked as a journalist and content coordinator for a regional newspaper and even had my own monthly magazine. In August 2018 I decided to leave journalism. I was sure I wanted to communicate, but not through journalism. In September 2018 I created my blog<\/a> and I've never stopped communicating through the blog and my social networks. I share cookery content on a daily basis, with an emphasis on simple and healthy recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>Was there someone responsible who helped you or inspired you to enter this area?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>No. When I left journalism I was sure of what I wanted to do and how to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>: Your success is already a reality, was it difficult to get here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>I often say that success is hard work and doesn't happen overnight. If we are coherent, consistent and are ourselves, we will achieve our goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>: Has the fact that we're in the interior of the Alentejo ever created any obstacles for you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>No.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>: You recently joined TVI Player, what can we expect from F\u00e1bio Belo in this new stage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>There will be new cookery episodes every week, with healthy, less healthy and even traditional recipes. You can also find me on TVI's IOL portal with recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>: We had the opportunity to buy your book - Alpalh\u00e3o Receitas com Tradi\u00e7\u00e3o (Alpalh\u00e3o Recipes with Tradition), which is now in its second edition. What inspired you to launch this book?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>: Our gastronomy is very rich, tasty, traditional and diverse. As I said on the day of the launch, \"this book was a real challenge\". It was planned to be ready in three months and it took nine months to see the light of day. It's a realised project and one I'm very proud of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>In an area like ours, rich in high-quality raw materials, is it difficult to \"shut up\"?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>: Not for me. I'm not a fundamentalist and I think there's one day a week when we should eat everything we want, the other days I'm very disciplined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>Have you helped many people achieve their goals over the years?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>: I've helped a few people....In coaching sessions I give people the tools they need to adopt a healthier lifestyle, and then it's up to them to have the right motivation to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>What was the thank you from your followers that touched you the most during this journey?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>There were several. However, I'd like to highlight the launch of the book \"Alpalh\u00e3o, Receitas com Tradi\u00e7\u00e3o\" (Alpalh\u00e3o, Recipes with Tradition), which was launched on a Saturday and was sold out by Monday. It's a sign that people like what I do and I see it as a greater form of gratitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DF<\/strong>And what can we expect for the future in professional terms, any secrets yet to be revealed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FB<\/strong>: At the moment I'm focussed on the new projects I'm working on and... of course there are always secrets to be revealed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone interested in purchasing the book \"Alpalh\u00e3o, Receitas com Tradi\u00e7\u00e3o\" (Alpalh\u00e3o, Recipes with Tradition) can do so via the book's website. F\u00e1bio Belo's Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
