Customer Reviews
Sound quality needs to be better
Good content though, as always. Love Zoe putting her approach out there.More people should take heed!
Used to be good but increasingly just full of conspiracy theories
Zoe appears to have lost her mind over the course of the pandemic. A great pity that somebody I used to respect appears to just be pushing dangerous nonsense.
What everyone needs to know . . .
If you want to live not only long but healthy you need to know all about eating the right foods and avoiding the wrong medications.
Listen to Zoe Harcombe, because she has a tenacious and fearsome intellect which does not let the purveyors of products which rely on bad science get away with things. She is a beacon on the horizon, showing us all the way. Follow her today.
