The Wellness Scoop

The revolutionary diet advice we should all be following with Tim Spector


Listen Later

I’m joined by epidemiologist, gut health expert, and one of the 100 most cited scientists in the world, Professor Tim Spector OBE. Tim is leading the conversation on gut health and is pioneering a new and positive approach to nutrition. Looking beyond calories, Tim’s work focuses on how eating for your gut health can fundamentally influences many aspects of your physical and mental health, as well as tackling deeply embedded diet narratives.

 

We discuss:

 

  1. Myth busting calorie counting
  2. Gut microbiome 101
  3. Why eating to support your gut positively impacts all aspects of health
  4. Tim’s 3 pieces of diet advice
  5. Shifting the narrative about what we eat
  6. Why taking a long-term view towards your health trumps all
  7.  

    Each week I unpack a wellness trend with GP Gemma Newman. This week on Fact or Fad we’re looking at meal replacements.
