How better nutrition can transform your health
In 2016, Public Health England estimated that Illness associated with lifestyle costs the NHS £11 billion every year. But are we missing something obvious? Could we bring down the cost to the taxpayer, reduce pressure on the health system, with simple advice on what we should eat and drink when we go to see our GP? A growing group of medical professionals think so. Meet the doctors demanding better training on food and nutrition for students at medical school; Dr Rangan Chatterjee (ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ One's Doctor In The House) and Dr Michael Mosley, (ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Two's Trust Me I'm a Doctor), believe that if tomorrow's doctors were taught more about nutrition and diet, it could have a transformative effect on the health of the UK.
First broadcast on The Food Programme, 26 March 2018.
