Weight Gain Warnings, Healthy Ageing & 35 Supplements a Day
6/15/202653 min
Could gaining weight in your twenties affect your health decades later? This week, we unpack a major new study linking early adult weight gain with a higher risk of several cancers, and explore what it really means for long-term health.
We also dive into the growing conversation around healthy ageing. Are constant snacking, refined carbohydrates and late-night meals ageing us faster than we realise? Plus, why Zone 2 exercise is having a moment, Slovenia's new dietary guidelines, the latest concerns around social media and children's health, and Kim Kardashian's revelation that she takes 35 supplements a day. Is more always better when it comes to wellness?
