Age Better with Liz Earle

Liz Earle

I'm on a mission to change the conversation around ageing. Women's health – particularly as we age – has been underfunded and overlooked for far too long. And frankly, it's time we pushed back. Through this podcast, I want to share the knowledge and tools that can help you thrive in later life by taking action today. Because here's what I've learned: decline isn't inevitable. And when we understand what our bodies truly need, we really can age better. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    What to eat this week to lift your mood and protect your brain – with Professor Tim Spector

    It seems the key to a brighter mood and healthy brain really does start at the end of your fork. Liz is joined by epidemiologist and ZOE co-founder Professor Tim Spector to explore the powerful connection between our gut and mental wellbeing – and how a few simple food tweaks can have a rapid impact on your mood and cognitive health.
