In this episode I discuss the latest in nutrition news.

The Paris Olympics have already run out of eggs and chicken, overestimating the demand for plant based meals or underestimating the need for animal proteins?  Michelin star chefs have made a very French Olympic Village menu with gourmet dishes, moving away from fast food staples like McDonald's. 

A study from the University of Edinburgh reveals that those who prioritise a natural lifestyle might reject meat created in a laboratory. I also discuss the alarming prevalence of ultra-processed foods in UK adolescents' diets.
