In an effort to address the obesity and chronic inflammation epidemics Dr Barry Sears created the zone diet 30 years ago.

Dr Sears tells us exactly why its important to eat protein with every meal.

We discuss the drivers of systemic inflammation in the body which is itself the root of so much chronic illness including depression.

Dr Sears tells us why he thinks the carnivore diet stresses the body.

We hear about gut health and how optimising it through good nutrition can alleviate digestive issues like acid reflux and bloating.

Prof Fine Book : https://shorturl.at/aeltL

Animals have an incredible effect on us humans, they can dissolve a bad mood in a moment and melt our hearts on demand with a simple touch and to talk to us about the science underpinning this, is Prof Aubrey Fine who is a psychologist, a best selling author and is an expert in the field of children and animal therapeutic interaction.

Professor Fine tells us what effects animals have on our psyche but also how they change us physiologically.We hear the positive impact animals have on children with ADHD, Autism and other conditions.

Find out the varying reasons people choose to have a pet in the first place.

And crucially we hear how to process the loss of a pet that has come to be a beloved member of the family as Professor Fine tells us how he dealt with the loss of his own golden retriever Ketzy.

This is a really touching and insightful conversation with a man who has a deep love and respect for his animal companions but also an appreciation of their power to help us become better human beings.

We're all about happy habits on this podcast and today I'm looking at happiness itself with Professor John Helliwell happiness expert who has studied happiness and the annual world happiness report every year since it was first published in 2012.

We ask which countries are the happiest and why?

Are those people who are married or in a long term relationship happier than single people?

How does an experiment involving dropping wallets in the street, teach us about happiness?

Are younger people happier than older people?

And crucially what can we do that boosts our own happiness?
