Why Almost Everything We’ve Been Told About Food Is Wrong

A talk by Professor Tim Spector

Is salt really bad for you? What about fermented foods, coffee, or saturated fats? Does gluten-free food carry any health benefits at all? Do doctors know anything about nutrition? World-leading geneticist Tim Spector has been shocked to discover how little scientific evidence there is for many of our most deep-rooted ideas about food. In this talk he busts myths, gives practical advice and discusses what our guts can tell us about Covid-19.
