The fascinating story of the fat vs sugar wars - and how it’s still misinforming what we eat today. Told through the life story of Tony The Tiger as he fights for his sugary survival today.

Tim Samuels hears how the scare caused by President Eisenhower’s heart attack in the 1950s led to six decades of flawed dietary advice, which still persists even today.

Against this dietary war between fat and sugar, Tim tracks the rise and fall of cereal mascot Tony The Tiger from one of the twentieth century’s greatest advertising icons, to now facing an imperiled existence as he approaches his eighth decade.

A cardiologist and dietician debate how much ‘good fats’ we should actually be eating.

An emergency doctor reveals how breathing techniques allow him to perform at his peak when a life and death case comes in.

The extreme routines of the super successful and whether they really improve productivity or just make you feel guilty for not getting up super early.

Tim Samuels speaks to tech entrepreneurs - including one whose last meal of the day is at noon and is always in bed by early evening - who all swear by their daily routines.

Experts weigh on in whether routines themselves can breed success by freeing up the mind; and if it’s all creating another form of status anxiety for the rest of us.

Featuring no-nonsense wisdom from Bridget Jones author Helen Fielding.
