The Protein Divide, The Optimism Effect & Britain’s Favourite Veg

Sobre este episodio

This week on The Wellness Scoop, we unpack some of the biggest conversations shaping how we think about health right now, from what we should actually be eating for heart health to the growing evidence that mindset plays a measurable role in physical wellbeing. We break down the clash between new US dietary guidelines and heart health advice, exploring the debate around plant vs animal protein, red meat and saturated fats. We also dive into the science of optimism and why a more positive outlook is linked to better cardiovascular health, sleep and immunity. Plus, we look at Britain’s favourite vegetables and what they’re really doing for your health, before finishing with the rising trend of cosmeticorexia and what it reveals about our relationship with appearance.
