In the old days we viewed the body and the mind as two very separate things. Not any more. The Health Report and Coronacast presenter Dr Norman Swan joins us to discuss how taking care of your physical health can also improve your mental health. We discuss, diet, exercise, alcohol, sleep, chronic pain and more.

Dr Norman Swan’s new book is  So You Think You Know What’s Good For You? The Ultimate Health Guide
