    I saw Torkil speak at the Integrative and Personalised Medicine Congress in London and I was absolutely delighted to speak to him on the show. We had some fun talking all things wearables, and he actually turned up to the interview wearing about 5 of them! As I was impressed, concerned and slightly confused all at the same time.

    • What is the best health tracker available?

    • The utility of heart rate variability (HRV) to track health

  • #81 Dr Bill Harris - How Omega 3 Could Enhance Your Healthspan And Reduce Your Risk For Disease
    Jul 9 2025

    Dr Bill Harris is as internationally recognised expert on the omega 3 and heart disease, which make him one of the best people in the world to have this conversation with. Omega 3’s are not often considered on a normal blood panel but I think there is a strong case as to why they should be. There is a reason why many countries across the world recommend multiple servings of oily fish per week and that is primarily due to their omega 3 content. From cardiovascular health, to brain health, to reducing systemic inflammation, omega 3’s at the right dose and levels seem to have a range of potential benefits.

    Bill kindly humoured my respectful challenge on the omega 3: omega 6 ratio debate. A highly contested topic on the internet today.

    In this fascinating conversation we touch upon:

    • How omega 3s can enhance your healthspam

    • The optimal dose and blood levels of omega 3

    • The role of omega 3s in human health and heart disease

    • Deciphering the omega 3: omega 6 ratio debate

    • The best sources of omega 3

    • And much more

    I was incredibly lucky that Bill and I had the chance to catch -up at the Integrative and Personalised Medicine congress in London and managed to arrange a date for this recording. I hope you get a lot out of this one because I sure did!

  • #80 Dr William Li - Preventing And Reversing Chronic Disease Using Food As Medicine
    May 28 2025

    Can we reverse chronic disease using food? How can food be used as preventative medicine? What foods have medicinal properties and in what dose?

    Dr. William Li, physician, scientist and bestselling author of “Eat to Beat Disease: The New Science of How Your Body Can Heal Itself” and “Eat to Beat Your Diet: Burn Fat, Heal Your Metabolism, and Live Longer”.

    I discovered Dr. Li over 12 years ago when he did a Ted Talk on the power of food and food extracts on angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) and cancer. This was a pivotal moment for me and sparked my passion for nutrition. I honestly, couldn’t get enough of nutrition science from that day forward. I watched every documentary I could get my hands on and read scientific papers alongside my day job - it was a real turning point.

    This is probably why I was overly excited about meeting Dr Li at a conference in London and where he kindly agreed to come on the show. Dr. William Li is an incredible researcher and content creator and has pioneered the science of food as medicine.

    In this fascinating conversation we discuss:

    • How to use food as medicine
