 NEW SERIES: Award-winning Radio 4 broadcaster and Daily Mail columnist Jenni Murray discovers life lessons from living legends. Professor Tim Spector is one of the world’s leading experts in nutrition and gut health microbiome, having co-founded the personalised nutrition programme, Zoe. He is also a Professor at Kings College London and a best-selling author. But, becoming a doctor wasn’t always what he wanted to do. He explains to Jenni how he got into – and fell in love with medicine. Yet it wasn’t until a health scare in his fifties that the trajectory of his career was changed forever - along with his lifestyle. Tim talks to Jenni about the major moments in his life that have shaped the way he lives – and how surviving a helicopter crash on a skiing holiday made him determined to live to the full. • Presented to you by Saga Boutique River Cruises.
