The ’Best’ Five-a-Day, Strength Training & Sleepmaxxing

from The Wellness Scoop · host The Wellness Scoop

Are all fruit and vegetables created equal? This week, we explore the new research suggesting that flavanol-rich foods like berries, apples, green tea and broad beans may be some of the most powerful additions to your diet, with potential benefits for heart health, brain health and even longevity. We also unpack the surprising impact of weight-loss drugs on Britain's food industry, after new figures suggested GLP-1 medications have already wiped £780 million from grocery spending and are beginning to reshape supermarket shelves. Plus, the strength training sweet spot linked to a longer life, and the wellness trends taking over America, from cortisol cocktails and sleepmaxxing to salt therapy and t'ai chi walking. kickbigsodaout.org Send your questions for our weekly Q&A to ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠ For more from Rhi and Ella:  Order your copy of Ella's new book: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Quick Wins: Healthy Cooking for Busy Lives⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Order your copy of Rhi's new book: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Fibre Formula⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sign up to ⁠Rhitrition+⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
