Is there a correct diet? With Dr Zoe Williams

Welcome to episode six of Health Unwrapped where we catch up once again with Dr Zoe Williams. This episode is being shared whilst many of us are still in lockdown due to COVID-19 and our shopping habits have changed significantly. Some of us are used to eating out regularly rather than cooking or being a bit too reliant on takeaways. Our current situation may have found you reunited with your kitchen and having to cook, others might be on a limited budget  - more so now than before. Or it may just be you aren't able to get to the shops due to work, health or childcare and therefore can't get the items we're used to. So this conversation about 'diets' with Dr Zoe Williams is going to be really useful and hopefully get you thinking about some practical changes you could make.

What we discuss: 

• Why Zoe has an issue with the word 'diet' and how you should view it as a lifestyle. How to get a better diet - what do ditch and what to keep 
• How 1/3 of our population are overweight and 1/3 are obese and the numbers are accelerating
• Why  we never ask why has someone reached the stage of not just being overweight but obese
• How to identify something you are already doing, such as drinking Kefir and explaining that lots of people are doing this as it has health benefits 
• How to get more movement into your day to day and how to get motivated
• How 'Motivational Interviewing' can help conversations along
• How we have to get away from the idea that the answer to obesity is to eat less and move more, that it requires an all systems approach 
• How a cheap lifestyle intervention can achieve such amazing results 
• What types of fat you have in your body and how we all have different capacity of what we can carry safely - subcutaneous fat, visceral fat & ectopic, what it is and what it can do to your body 
• What is a TOFI - thin outside, fat on the inside
• Which diets that you should be wary of eg. Keto
• The benefits of low carb diet and intermittent fasting eg. time restricted eating
