Food Special with Tim Spector

Professor Tim Spector, a leading expert on nutrition and gut
health, takes Michael Mosley through his top food and nutrition
tips, sharing stories from his life and research along the way.
Joined by an audience at the Hay Festival, Michael learns what
happened the time Tim convinced his son to eat an ultra-processed
food diet for two weeks and the surprising ways your gut
influences your immune system. Tim, who is professor in
epidemiology at King's College London, shares the shocking moment
he realised that even as a doctor, he was on track for major
health problems, and how he took control over his diet and his
health - and how you can, too. Tim also reveals what cutting edge
science shows about how you should be eating to benefit your
health and wellbeing.
