    How Men Can Help Women

    In this episode, we host an honest discussion about the responsibility on men when it comes to the unacceptable abuse suffered by women. Earlier this year, the horrific murder of Sarah Everard led to a huge outcry from women who have understandably had enough of the abuse they’ve suffered at the hands of men. This has also given rise to an unprecedented number of women bravely coming forward to talk about their experiences of abuse from men, from the everyday catcalling that goes on in the streets, to physical and sexual attacks. A line has been drawn in the sand, so we wanted to understand what men can do to help make sure that abuse against women becomes a thing of the past. To help us work all that out, we’re joined by three excellent guests: Social psychologist Professor Russell Luyt, head of Human Sciences at the University of Greenwich, and co-author of Masculine Power and Gender Equality: Masculinities as Change Agents (Springer, £87.50) Deniz Ugur, deputy director of the End Violence Against Women Coalition endviolenceagainstwomen.org.uk Emma Kay – the founder of the WalkSafe app, https://www.walksafe.io To find out more about this subject, you can read Healthy For Men in the latest issue of healthy magazine, on sale from June 19 at Holland and Barrett stores, and online at hollandandbarrett.com

    The Science of the Sporting Comeback (with Matt Fitzgerald)

    In this episode, we speak to Matt Fitzgerald, author of the new book The Comeback Quotient, which looks at the science and the stories behind some of sport’s greatest comebacks.    Everyone loves an inspirational sporting fairytale story, and Matt’s fascinating book uncovers how some athletes are able to put some serious adversity behind them to overcome obstacles and hit their goals.     In the book, Matt identifies these mega-achievers of astounding comebacks as ‘ultrarealists’. These men and women succeed where others fail by fully accepting, embracing, and addressing the reality of their situations. We chat to Matt about the unique mental qualities of these athletes, and how there’s so much we can all learn from the way they deal with setbacks to help us cope with our everyday life issues.   Host by Gershon PortnoiRecorded by Gershon PortnoiEdited by Andy GreeningDirected by Andy Greening and Gershon Portnoi Special thanks to Matt FitzgeraldPodcast artwork by Andy Greening MusicHealthy For Men theme song by Premium BeatsIntro music –  'Currents' by 'Mhern' via Epidemic Sound    Remember you can pick up the latest edition of Healthy For Men Magazine in your local Holland & Barrett, online at hollandandbarrett.com, and via the Holland & Barrett app. Healthy For Men Podumentary is by Healthy For Men magazine which is published by River Sounds which is part of River Group Content Limited 2021   Please note: All views are those of our guests and not of Healthy For Men or Holland & Barrett, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

    We think you'll love this new podcast. Introducing the brand new Holland & Barrett Podcast series, The Wellness Edit. Most of us probably feel we’d like to be a bit healthier, but it isn’t always easy to know how. Advice can be confusing, contradictory – and, let’s face it, difficult to stick to. Dr Gemma Newman, also known as the Plant Power Doctor, is a medical GP and also has a huge belief that health is holistic. Through Gemma's work, she knows that body, mind and soul are connected. You have to look at them together if you want to truly achieve wellness – the state of being healthy in both body and mind. In The Wellness Edit podcast, brought to you by Holland & Barrett, Dr Gemma will be unpacking key wellness topics with some of her favourite experts, getting their insight and advice on the biggies – those areas in life so many of us struggle with, like how to sleep better, get more energy and support our immune systems. With their help, we’ll be making wellness simple, so that more of us can live longer, healthier and happier lives.
