6p Superfoods, 8,241 Steps for Better Health & The Salty Sandwich Debate

Über diese Folge

This week we’re diving into the sandwich headlines taking over the news, after reports that one high street sandwich contains more salt than nearly five McDonald’s cheeseburgers. Rhi gives us the inside story from the latest Action on Salt research, why out-of-home lunches are often saltier than we realise, and how confusing nutrition comparisons can become when we reduce foods down to one nutrient. We also discuss the surprising health case for humble carrots, the fascinating study linking arts and culture to slower biological ageing, and the oddly specific number of daily steps researchers say may help people maintain weight loss long term. Plus, we unpack the latest wellness trends — from smart underwear designed to track your flatulence in real time, to an orchestra that performs entirely on vegetable instruments.
