We've all heard the promises: “do this 7-day juice cleanse and you’ll feel brand new”, “take these supplements and all your health problems will disappear”, “drink this tea and you’ll lose lots of weight."

After all these failed promises, why haven't we found the secret to true health yet?

This week, we welcome Emily Prpa, an award-winning nutritionist with a PhD in Nutritional Sciences and Company Nutritionist & Science Manager with Yakult. Through her years of research and own personal experiences, she discusses trends and fads in the health and wellness world, emphasising that there's no single solution to fix all your problems.

Though we may be disappointed there’s no magic recipe, there are many practical and simple ways to improve your gut and overall health. We also tackle questions like whether being overly hygienic weakens your immune system and why you don't need to give up sweets or any other food.

Learn how Emily’s nutrition journey began with baking cakes and ended with test tubes in a lab. She opens up about almost giving up on her PhD and how starting a podcast helped her persevere.
