This week The Wellness Guys interview ‘The Voice’ of The Wellness Guys Show, Karen Tham. This week The Wellness Guys wanted to talk about birthing choices and since all three of us are unlikely to ever go through child birth (there was that one guy right…) we thought it would be a good idea to get a female perspective on the show. Karen and the guys talk about all the choices their families went through, why they chose the way they did and how they feel now about those choices. They also discuss the fact that no two families and no two birthing situations are the same and why it is so very important for families to create their own personalised birthing plan. So whether you have kids, are planning on having kids or not you will find some health and wellness gems in this episode.

There aren’t too many people in our modern world who don’t buy any of their food in packets and it can be a minefield trying to navigate the information on the packaging. What should you look for, what should you look out for, what is the important information and what is the marketing spin? The Wellness Guys give the low down on what they look for in a food label, how they choose their foods and what things they absolutely avoid when buying for themselves and their families. If you ever buy food in a packet then this episode is for you.
