Functional Medicine Bitesized

Pete interviews the world's foremost authority on muscle mass, ageing and protein. Pete questions Professor Stu Phillips on the last 3 decades of muscle research (a lot of it his own research) . He also explores why having good muscle mass as you age is likely the most important intervention we can do for overall health.
Pete says, "This has been a huge privilege for me personally. I started my career as an exercise scientist and still see exercise as the key intervention for health and optimal ageing. To be able to chat to Stu, having read and followed a lot of his research over the decades, has been super cool. Make no mistake, if you are interested in ageing well, this is a must podcast."

The days of population advice on health for the individual is over.
We now have the capacity to identify much of how we create health or sickness in an individual by getting a better understanding of their genes and how these genes choose to express themselves based on the life we lead.
Genetics expert Helen Gauche is interviewed by Pete. Helen provides a wonderful narrative of where we are currently with DNA Health testing. She explains how informative it is, what to look for in a test and in a company, and gives some great examples using Pete's genomic results.
Personalised medicine and personalised advice on health gets closer through understanding your genes and their expression.
