Are fermented foods the missing link in our health, or just the latest wellness trend? 

In this episode, Professor Tim Spector, a world-leading scientist in gut health and co-founder of ZOE, challenges what we think we know about yogurt, cheese, kombucha, and more.

Tim uncovers why milk and cheese aren’t the same in your body - and the surprising science showing cheese might not be the heart villain it was once made out to be. He also shares emerging evidence that fermented foods could influence inflammation, immunity, metabolism, and even mood, often in a matter of weeks.

From a groundbreaking Stanford study to insights from ZOE’s research on 9,000 people, this episode reveals why fermented foods are more powerful, and more misunderstood, than most of us realise.

Tim breaks down the easiest ways to actually eat more fermented foods without overhauling your life. By the end, you’ll be questioning what’s in your fridge - and wondering if one tiny daily habit could do far more than you’d ever expect.

Today we’re diving into our immune health.

You can think of your immune system as your body’s personal physician. Diligently working around the clock to monitor, detect, and repair anything that might disrupt your health.

However, because it’s work is so seamless and silent, we often take it for granted. 

So, how can we better support our internal MD?

Immunologist Jenna Macciochi joins me to explore how simple, everyday actions - from what we eat to how we breathe - can profoundly enhance our immune health.

Is flavour just a sensory experience? Or the secret key to eating for health? In this episode, Spencer Hyman, flavour expert and co-founder of Cocoa Runners, joins Professor Tim Spector, world-leading scientist in nutrition and gut health, to uncover how the food industry manipulates taste to make us overeat, and how rediscovering real flavour could transform our wellbeing.

Spencer reveals the fascinating science of flavour and why we “taste” with our noses, how chocolate became the world’s first hyper-palatable food, and why modern diets are full of fake flavours designed to make us eat faster. Tim explains how “big food” exploits the brain’s reward system to override fullness signals, creating products that keep us hooked - and what we can do to fight back.

For listeners curious about how to rebuild a healthy relationship with food, this episode includes a practical guide to retraining your taste buds. Spencer and Tim share tips on how to eat more slowly, savour each bite, and use flavour as a natural marker of nutrient-rich, satisfying foods.

Could learning the language of flavour be the most powerful way to eat better - without restriction?

Have you ever wondered why you can lose weight on a diet, only for it to come back with a vengeance? If you’ve blamed yourself for a lack of willpower, our guest today argues you’ve been misled. The old mantra of “eat less, move more” is failing us, and the key to understanding why lies deep within our biology.

In this episode, Jonathan is joined by Dr. Andrew Jenkinson, a bariatric surgeon and author with decades of experience in the science of metabolism. Dr. Jenkinson dismantles the calorie-counting myth and explains the powerful biological system that controls our weight: the "set point." He reveals how our modern diet and lifestyle have broken this system, but also provides a clear, science-backed path to fixing it.

Dr. Andrew Jenkinson is a consultant bariatric surgeon and the author of Why We Eat (Too Much): The New Science of Appetite.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

 
Why the idea that weight loss is simply about willpower is a damaging myth.

 
The science of the "weight set point" and how your brain fights to keep you at a certain weight.

 
How your metabolism acts like a "dimmer switch," slowing down to prevent weight loss when you diet.

 
The crucial role of hormones like leptin and insulin, and why our modern diet causes "leptin resistance" — the reason your brain can’t tell it’s full.

 
How yo-yo dieting can actually raise your set point, making you heavier in the long run.

 
A practical, step-by-step plan to lower your set point by changing what you eat, not just how much.

 
The truth about new weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and their long-term effects.

 
How managing stress and improving sleep can be as important as your diet for sustainable weight management

Today, we’re talking about plants.

For years, our diets have been guided by a simple three word slogan: ‘five a day’. While it’s well established that eating fruit and vegetables is good for us, some experts believe the ‘five a day’ message puts too much emphasis on quantity, and not enough on variety.

So, is time to adjust our guiding plant principle?

I’m joined by Professor Tim Spector and chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, who advocate for a new goal: eating 30 different plants each week. Together, we’ll explore why diversity is key for your microbiome and share some delicious ways to bring more plants onto your plate.

Recap: Why you should eat 30 different plants every week | Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall & Tim Spector

Is your smartwatch just a fun gadget, or a serious medical device? 

In this episode, Jonathan Wolf is joined by Dr. Malcolm Findlay, a leading consultant cardiologist, to explore the powerful health data available on your wrist. They decode the most misunderstood metric, Heart Rate Variability (HRV), and reveal how your wearable can provide clinical-grade insights into your heart's health.

Dr. Findlay explains the counter-intuitive science behind HRV — why more ‘wobble’ in your heartbeat is a sign of good health — and breaks down the two opposing nervous systems that control it. He shares the latest on how these devices can accurately detect serious conditions like atrial fibrillation and why he, as a cardiologist, trusts the ECG function on a consumer smartwatch to make diagnoses.

For listeners who track their own data, this episode is a practical guide to what your numbers actually mean. Dr. Findlay explains how to interpret your personal HRV trends, what constitutes a significant change, and when you should use the ECG feature. He also debunks common myths about heart rate zones, revealing the level of exercise intensity that truly benefits your long-term health.

The episode concludes with an empowering look at how this technology is shifting control into our own hands. Can a simple alert from your watch really help prevent a catastrophic event like a stroke? Discover which metrics matter most and how to use them to guide your wellness journey.

If you’re a regular listener of this podcast, you’ll know that our cholesterol level is closely linked to heart health. With that in mind, it’s easy to be drawn to foods labelled as ‘low fat’, ‘reduced fat’ or ‘fat free’ - all of which promise to keep our cholesterol low and heart strong. 

However, is it really that simple?

I’m joined by Professor Sarah Berry to break down the difference between good and bad cholesterol, bust some myths about low-fat foods, and explain how we can make smarter food choices that support our heart.

Today we’re considering mindfulness.
Improving your health often comes with certain sacrifices. You might need to sacrifice time to exercise or money for specialised equipment and food. But mindfulness is different. It doesn’t demand our time or cost money. Instead, it suggests we can enhance our health simply by changing the way we think.
So, is it really possible to think our way to better health? And if so, where do we begin?
In this episode, Harvard professor Ellen Langer joined me to delve into the magical connection between mind and body.
