  • Incredible insight to nutrition and health

    I love this podcast! The episode on diabetes was especially meaningful for me, as I have a son with type 1. The information was clear, well-researched, and very helpful. Even the episodes that aren't directly relevant to my life have been surprisingly interesting. The host does a great job at making complex nutrition facts easy to understand. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to learn more about their health!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Do Health Star Ratings on food labels mean it's healthy? ... with Associate Professor Alexandra Jones
Q: What about the idea of making Health Stars mandatory?
There is political will toward mandating labeling, but the process is complex; a mandatory regime would require legislation and a longer transition period for industry to adapt.
Do Health Star Ratings on food labels mean it's healthy? ... with Associate Professor Alexandra Jones
Q: Why has uptake been uneven among manufacturers?
Because the policy has been voluntary, many companies display stars only on products that already score well, while poorer-performing items may omit the rating, limiting the tool's public health impact.
Do Health Star Ratings on food labels mean it's healthy? ... with Associate Professor Alexandra Jones
Q: What are Health Stars and why were they created?
Health Stars are a front-of-pack labeling system that gives a quick visual cue about how healthy a product is, using an algorithm that balances negative nutrients with positive ones to help shoppers compare similar products.
Why do some people need a 'fasting' diet before bowel, gut or gynae surgery? with Dr Sally Griffin
Q: Can VLCD/VLED before surgery improve surgical outcomes?
Yes, the research suggests that with proper medical supervision and dietitian guidance, VLCD/VLED before surgery can reduce risk factors like blood sugar and blood pressure, shrink the liver to ease the operation, and potentially lower complication rates, particularly in upper GI and hepatobiliary procedures.
Do Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro increase the risk of vitamin, mineral or protein deficiency? ... with Ilyse Jones
Q: What role should dietitians play in the management of patients on GLP-1 medications?
Dietitians should provide medical nutrition therapy, conduct micronutrient assessments, guide patients on diet quality and protein intake to preserve muscle mass, and coordinate with GPs for chronic care plans and additional support like psychology or exercise physiology.
