Some minimally processed food is perfectly healthy. Aim for diversity in your diet, including 30 different plant types each week. Treat children's gut microbes with care and teach them about real food. Spread the word that UPFs should be avoided and are making us all sick. Think of your food choices as transactions for both your and the planet's future health.
What should I have for dinner? A question you no doubt ask yourself daily. But I bet you don't spend too long coming up with an answer. ZOE's scientific co-founder, Tim Spector, has been trying to answer this question for a decade.
If you're a regular listener, you probably know him well. Five years ago, he published the best-selling book, The Diet Myth, and just last month, he released the follow-up, Food for Life, the New Science of Eating Well.
In this episode, you'll hear a chapter from the book titled “So Now What Should I Have for Dinner?”
