Over the past decade, gut health has become a hot topic—and much of the credit goes to one man: Professor Tim Spector. From avoiding ultra-processed foods to aiming for 30 different plants per week, many of the concepts we now embrace stem from his work.

In this episode, we dive into:

  • Why every medical specialty is now exploring the gut microbiome.
  • The fascinating origin of the "Eat 30 different plants a week" guideline.
  • What Tim believes is the key reason vegans and vegetarians often experience better health outcomes than meat eaters.
