A teenage boy who has eaten nothing but SAUSAGES every mealtime for his entire life has been cured of his bizarre food phobia after being hypnotised over Facetime.

Ben Simpson, 15, would refuse to try anything other than a bland diet of plain Richmonds bangers washed down with glasses of water.

He developed his fear of food, known as ARFID, when mum Wendy Hughes, 55, tried to move him onto solid foods as a baby.

She has since forked out £60 a month on Richmonds skinless sausages - with Ben getting through four every meal and several packs of 16 each week.

Frustrated Wendy became so concerned about her son’s health she turned to Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist David Kilmurry for help.

And she was left amazed after Ben began trying new foods for the first rime following just one hypnotherapy session on a Facetime phone call.
