Dr Joanna McMillan is a PHD qualified nutritional scientist, dietician and heath and wellbeing expert, but the self-confessed science nerd is a breath of fresh air because she talks about food in a way we can all understand and relate to.

A television and radio favourite, Joanna chats about her early years growing up on a Scottish farm, the importance of good gut health and the real story behind our coffee habits.

Looking after ourselves and the planet at the same time is Joanna's passion and she shares her thoughts and philosophies on some of the easiest ways to achieve both these goals, including making the best choices when buying seafood.

Joanna's dream dinner party guest list is a stunner, as is her kitchen tip and she reveals the truth behind her popular My Day on a Plate newspaper column. 

The Food Bytes Food Poll this week spotlights the humble pea in all its cooked and raw glory. Do these green balls of flavour get the tick or the flick?
