In this week’s episode, we’re unpacking the return of restrictive headlines — starting with The Telegraph’s “11 foods to avoid if you want to slim down for summer.” We break down what these kinds of lists get wrong, why they’re still everywhere, and how food swaps can either empower or shame, depending on the lens.

We also explore the news that WeightWatchers has filed for bankruptcy, what it says about the end of calorie-counting culture, and how new weight-loss pills are changing the conversation from habits to hormones.

Then we turn to Spain’s bold new school food policy — banning ultra-processed snacks and requiring fruit, vegetables and fish at every school meal. Should the UK follow?

Plus, new data from CALM reveals a loneliness epidemic among young adults — right as AI-powered “companions” go mainstream. We ask whether virtual support is helping or making things worse.

And in this week’s trend check: is psyllium husk really the “natural Ozempic” — or just good fibre marketing?

Recommendations:
