In this month’s episode, we focus on sport and health: how to get ready to run a race and why heading footballs could be dangerous.
First, we dig into a sporting debate that has dominated the headlines in recent years - the potential dangers of heading footballs and the risk to players’ health.
We know footballers are three and a half times more likely to die of diseases like Alzheimers or Parkinsons, than people the same age.
We explore research from Manchester Metropolitan University Institute of Sport that investigates the effects of heading in football, in the hope of being a step closer to understanding the lasting health impacts.
In this episode, we also speak to our sport psychology and nutrition experts for some useful hints and tips on preparing mind and body for a 10k of half-marathon
