Follow the show: ZOE Science & Nutrition

Over the last two years, there’s been a rise in “immune-boosting” foods, supplements and trends. Today's guest, immunologist Dr. Jenna Macciochi, believes the immune system doesn’t need boosting. Instead, it should be balanced.

In this episode, Jenna - a Senior Lecturer in Immunology at the University of Sussex - reveals how your immune system is your body’s housekeeper. Jenna highlights the case for the ‘good bugs’ in our gut microbiome, the role of micronutrients and how our immune system isn’t born, but made.

We'll also tackle the age-old question: do we really need Vitamin C supplements?

ICYMI, this was a HUGE interview for me this past fall (2024) with a Sister Wives Brown family member. Enjoy and take in some of Ben’s amazing insights about Kody, Robyn, Christine, Meri, Janelle, and his cousins.I had an engaging conversation with Ben Brown, a comedian and TikTok star known for his candid takes on his upbringing in a polygamous family, being a nephew of Kody Brown from the Sister Wives franchise. Ben discussed the challenges of growing up poor in a polygamous household governed by strict beliefs, the complexities of family dynamics, and the misconceptions surrounding polygamy. Plus, does he stay in touch with Kody Brown and his cousins. Ben offers Janelle, Meri, and Christine advice now that they’re free, talks TLC and profiting off children, Garrison’s passing, and more.
