    Emma Barnett is 40 years old and at the top of her game.  She’s regularly up at 330 in the morning to broadcast to the nation and to hold powerful people to account.  But will the early starts and work stress have played havoc with her body?   Emma’s used to asking the questions but in this frank, thought-provoking conversation, Emma talks openly about the impact of 6 rounds of IVF followed by early years parenting, her endometriosis, her more recent diagnosis of adenomyosis, and the lifestyle changes she is trying to alleviate her symptoms.  She’s not too worried about how she’ll look as she gets older, but she is hoping to feel better as she ages with the long-term goal of retiring in Miami with big hair! From Kate Bush to Nigel Farage, to Nazanin Zahgari Ratcliffe, Emma has interviewed them all and is one of the youngest presenters ever to reach such heady heights of broadcasting.   But is she really? Listen in to find out!   Dr Nichola is, of course on hand to talk in more depth about endometriosis and how it affects inflammation.  Plus how and why shift work impacts our biological age.   Emma talks about anti-semitism in this episode which was recorded in August before the attack at the Heaton Park Synagogue in Manchester.   Emma also talked about her book Maternity Service and the range of colouring books she has created with her husband - Colour Your Streets   https://colouryourstreets.co.uk/?srsltid=AfmBOorUHbG2nR3Dez5OnzaSo8PHwdMgCp_vO9NTtzdWTvktKeQUQZaH  Senior Video Producer – Elena Cotton Video Producer– David May Social Media -  Demi Brockway Artwork – Ben Watkins  Video Editor - Mossie Cassidy Head of Video – Edie Jefferys Sound Designer – Phil Atkins Executive Producer – Henrietta Harrison Head of Production – Cat Moran Chief Creative Officer – Lucie Cave

    What’s My Microbiome Again? - Branded episode with Yakult.  

    This episode of What’s My Age Again is a little bit different - Katherine isn’t revealing anyone’s biological age - but instead, revealing the secrets of our microbiomes and bunking myths about our guts.  It’s all thanks to our friends - and friendly bacteria - at Yakult sponsoring this episode.   Katherine and Dr Nichola Conlon are joined by award-winning nutrition scientist Dr Emily Prpa. In addition to holding a PhD from King’s College London, Emily also boasts a near-perfect gut-biome score so we know she practices what she preaches.    Dr Emily calls herself a ‘friendly neighbourhood food detective’, who specialises in studying how different foods can make our bodies and brains feel their best, cutting through the noise to provide simple tips to improve our everyday wellbeing.    This episode on gut health is so much more than a science lesson - expect to hear about how kissing swaps bacteria, babies eating charcuterie, how one woman ‘cured’ her mental health conditions with her husband’s poo, why a c-section won’t harm a babies microbiome, oh - and what on earth a crapsule is.     Thank you very much to our friends - and friendly bacteria - at Yakult for sponsoring this episode.
