What was the last thing you read in the news about which foods you should avoid because they cause cancer? Or what foods you should eat to cure your cancer? And, which of those things were actually true?
There are so many exaggerated nutritional and health claims floating around the media space. Some of them can be pretty scary.
“I don’t want to eat something that might cause cancer.”
Other times they can make huge promises or give false hope.
“Wait, if I drink this then my skin will be clear forever and ever?”
So, how do you separate fact from fiction? And what’s really good for your health and nutrition?
My name is Jane Alice Liu, and I am the Communications Officer for the European Food Information Council. We created this podcast to bring you real experts on real health and nutrition news.
We explore exaggerated media claims and talk with experts on what is actually scientifically supported. In our first season of Well, Actually, we talk about things like iron supplements, how much iron you should be taking in, fibre, probiotics, prebiotics, gut health, protein intake and more. We chat with professors from University of Cambridge, dieticians, and other experts around the world.
