VIDEO: “All I can eat is sausage and chips… I need to find a cure”

A man with a rather unusual eating disorder is looking to turn to hypnotherapy to help him eat something other than sausage and chips for the first time in 22 years.

Daniel Pennock, 26, ate a varied diet as a toddler but was unable to eat anything but bangers and fries from the age of four.

The lifeguard claims to be violently sick when anything else comes near his lips.

The unusual habit has seen him pile on the pounds and has even cost him relationships with former girlfriends who grew tired because he has never eaten out.

But now the father of two, who wants to become a physical trainer, is seeking out hypnotherapy to help him tackle his limited diet so he can live a normal life.

Hypnotherapy is seen by experts as a relaxation technique that uses the power of suggestion.
