About this episode

This week on The Wellness Scoop, we explore the small shifts that can have a surprisingly big impact on long-term health, starting with new research showing how just 11 extra minutes of sleep, alongside simple daily habits, could meaningfully reduce heart attack risk. We unpack a major shift in the weight loss landscape as GLP-1 drugs begin to fall dramatically in price, and what that could mean for access, demand and how these medications are used globally. We also look at the wider cultural impact already emerging, from changing body ideals to shifts on the fashion runway and some crazy new aesthetic trends.  We also break down new UK guidance on children’s screen time and what it really means for development, attention and sleep, alongside the fast-growing children’s supplement market and why many multivitamins aren’t delivering what parents think they are. Finally, we explore the rise of olive oil and lemon shots, what’s driving the trend, what the science actually says, and whether they’re worth adding into your routine.
