Love the foods you hate
Are there some foods that you just hate? Have you ever hated a food in the past but started liking it? We hear from a food expert and a dietitian about why there are some foods we just hate and even fear, and whether it's possible to learn to love them. Neil and Becca discuss this, learn some tips for loving the foods you hate, and teach you some new vocabulary.
The Future Of Food
Many of us are trying to be more careful with our food choices, both for our personal health and for the health of the planet in general. But did you know that the food we buy is closely linked to national security? Neil and Pippa discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.
Are saunas good for you?
How would you feel about being shut in a small room and heated to a temperature of 80°C? Believe it or not, some people love it! Going to the sauna is a cultural pastime in many countries, but did you know that there might be some health benefits to this hot habit? Neil and Georgie discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.
Weight Loss Drugs
Weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro are modified versions of natural hormones which make us feel full when released into the body. Prof Giles Yeo explains how the drugs, which were originally used to treat diabetes, are now being used for weight loss. We also hear about someone's experience of using the drugs. Georgie and Neil teach you some useful vocabulary.
How Do We Adapt To The Cold
Where is the coldest place you have ever been? Did you enjoy the experience? Some people don't seem to mind the cold, whereas other people seem to feel it much more strongly and keep themselves wrapped up in as many layers as possible. But why do we feel it in different ways? Phil and Becca discuss this and teach you some new vocabulary.
